Hawaiian Cruise Page 5

Time to get off the desserts and back into the events. Next up, the John Stewart concert. Now that 
we were back on the open seas, the ship was rocking and rolling again. It was hard to walk while
  keeping a balance. Everyone still had their sealegs, but even so a few of us felt downright queasy.

John gave us a splendid afternoon, joined on stage by Buffy and Henry Diltz. He did have a bit of
  trouble keeping his guitar from sliding off his lap, and he had to sit on a stool for the concert lest he
lose his balance on the stage. Ah, the fun of performing on a boat that's rocking from side to side.

Our next two events were the question and answer session, followed by the autograph session.    
The q & a session was hilarious at times and everyone enjoyed getting the skinny. Bill, John, Bob
George and Rick cracked us up. We had a grand time, and learned some inside stuff as well. Fun!

Alas, we knew the cruise was coming to an end soon, and couldn't believe how fast it had gone  
by. 15 days is not long when you are having fun! But, we had one more event to look forward to -
another Kingston Trio concert! We knew it would be a great capper to an already fantastic cruise.


But the concert hasn't started yet. I wonder what they are doing?
