It wasn't calmer! Or at least not by much. Still slept a lot though I rose and showered for lunch. I then spent the afternoon in a combination of wandering and sitting while listening to some podcasts on my phone. The seas were rough enough that the promenade deck was blocked off as being unsafe - too wet and windy. Lee was still not prepared to eat until dinner time. By this time there had been enough reports of seasickness to have the ship worried about possible outbreaks of gastro (hard to detect when the symptoms are so similar). This meant that hand cleansing became mandatory on entry to the buffet and instead of serving ourselves there were crew ready to serve everyone. So it became a buffer where you took your plate and pointed to things you wanted. Also, extra crew were cleaning each table as soon as it was vacated.
We went to the theatre for the dance show - a montage of 50's and 60's songs and styles. While we expect the choreography was scaled back to match the conditions it was still impressive how they managed a flawless performance while the ship was still clearly rocking.
