First stop of the cruise today in Roatan Honduras. Bridie went off to do a snorkeling tour, but I can't swim, so I just got off the ship briefly and had a look around the shops. Despite the fact that I was barely off ship for an hour the mozzies got me about 6 times! Back on board I spent some quality time on the pool deck and met some nice folks from Alberta in the hot tub.
Once Bridie got back from her tour we had a quick supper in the buffet and then off for another evening of entertainment. First we watched a Gow-Rom sketch with Robert O'Reilly (Chancellor Gowron) and Max Grodenchik both in full make up. They then did a Q and A for about 30 minutes. Then off to the theatre for George Takei's "memories" presentation. He talked about his childhood in the American Japanese internment camps during WWII, and also about being gay before and during the aids epidemic, and again feeling persecuted for being different. These experiences shaped him and caused him to take the role of a political activist today.
After that it was off to Q's costume party with John De Lancie on the pool deck. Some unbelievable costumes. The work people have put into it is amazing - and of course they are all only too happy to be photographed. Here's a quick selection:
