We have had two very relaxing sea days, the water has been very calm, just like a lake.  Yesterday we crossed the equator (our seventh time) in the early morning.  In the evening we had the King Neptune Ceremony which is always entertaining.  It usually involves someone kissing a fish or something similar.  This one was one of the pretty girls from the entertainment staff dressed as a mermaid.  All the men that had not crossed the equator before were lined up to kiss the mermaid and then they switched her for a guy dressed as a really ugly mermaid, it was pretty funny.
We had spent most of the last two days just reading, going to lectures, playing games and napping!  We did finally see some sea life, a large pod of dolphins and lots of tiny flying fish.  This afternoon we will be docking in Male' in the Maldives.
