North to Alaska: Day 2

Just sea today. Hope we see a few whales. They always seem to pop up on the other side of the ship.


If the whales don't show up, there's always the Wine Blending Seminar.

Hi Pak Idrus,

Well, I wasn't disappointed: there was a wine blending seminar, and another, unexpected one given by a fifth generation member of a prominent wine-making family in California, the Wente Brothers.

This turned out to be a real treat since he was a very well educated young man, very knowledgeable in both the science and art of wine-making. In addition he was a very skilled and entertaining presenter.

Then there was a third presentation, also by the Wente scion, that involved wine and food pairing.

All the presentations were "hands-on", so everyone participated enthusiastically :)
