This was a day where we reached a port (Cornerbrook, Newfoundland) that met two requirements: First, it was a foreign port, which allowed the ship the luxury of scheduling extra sea days without worrying whether a return to the United States would violate the American Passenger Vessel Services Act, and allow the passengers to stretch their land legs for a change.

We awoke around 9:00 am (8:00 an EDT) and slowly got moving to
breakfast. RQS went off to exercise, while I went to the cabin to relax.
Even though we were not likely to need the ArriveCan app, we were glad to NOT have deleted it. We could need to show the receipt we received it we encountered a troublesome customs agent when landing at a Canadian port. Before RQS went off to
exercise, we had checked with the shore excursions desk, but they had no
information available about the port. (Too bad that I forgot about the whatsinport.com website, as it could lead me to information on what to do at this post.)
When the ship was finally docked and cleared to disgorge passengers, we decided to go out and try to contact people in the world outside the ship. RQS was able to reach her friend who checked in on her cats. I, on the other hand, checked in on my email - not much was going on at home. Later in the day, it was off to another specialty dinner at Ocean Blu, NCL's seafood restaurant. Again, the atmosphere was great, as was the food. We finished our dinner in time to see NCL’s production of Footloose. (It’s not a show I’d pay to see on Broadway. But then, I’m not a fan of musicals, nor am I a fan of the story.) At least, the production was good, and RQS enjoyed the play. .
