Saturday, March 12th, 2005- Indian Ocean

Tomorrow is Neptune Day, when we cross the equator. This evening they just had an auction to shave certain faculty and staff’s heads with the proceeds going to the Tsunami relief. I went in with a couple of people to try and buy Doc’s head (our theater teacher), however to no avail he went to a bunch of the Ancient Mariners (senior passengers). The captain ended up getting in on the action and also came up to be bid on. He gained the most money with a winning bid of $500. Ten people went in on it and also got the additional bonus of being allowed to blow the horn as we crossed the equator.
