Ir was another sea day on the way back to Puerto Vallarta.  D returned, as instructed, to the Medical Center where a doctor looked at his wounded finger and replaced the bulky bandage of the past several days with a bright blue band-aid [see the picture posted for Monday].  Laden with more band-aids than he could possibly use in this lifetime, he was discharged with the warning to return if he started bleeding again or developed an infection.

We lazed around the cabin until early afternoon waiting to be called for another round of Covid antigen testing.  Despite the fact that we had tested negative on Sunday, we were not exempted from the ship-wide testing.  We were extra cautious and waited almost an hour after the testing before going to a really late lunch at the Dive-In Bar, the on-board burger and hot dog stand.

We finished lunch around 3:45 or so and went almost immediately into SCAN mode and rested our eyes until supper time.  Since we had had such a late lunch, we didn't eat much for supper but made sure there was room for a pavlova for dessert. Throughout dinner, Danan attempted to make an origami rabbit with varying degrees of success.  We talked about his children at home, especially his 4-year-old daughter.  We will keep her in mind tomorrow  His final trick was to add some bunny beans behind the paper rabbit -- they were the most successful part of the show.

Off to a losing stint at the casino, then home for D to post the journal while MA tried to untangle the necklaces again.

Tomorrow -- The Return to Puerto Vallarta and WalMart
