So I think I know fully understand what it means to have “sea legs”. Tonight has by far been the roughest sea yet. Basically having “sea legs” means you can stand up and walk in a somewhat straight line. I imagine it’s something of a cross between being in space with zero gravity and being inebriated! Going up and down stairs is the most fun part because some steps you feel like the heaviest person and then other steps you just float right up. I don’t know if I’m describing this in any coherent fashion, but hopefully you get the point. I still haven’t gotten sick (knock on wood!), but I did give my cabin steward some motion sickness pills because he wasn’t doing well at all. I think we’re having bad weather due to a hurricane or some storm. The captain made an announcement, but I couldn’t really hear it. We’re on our way to Grand Turk from St. Thomas.
Due to the bad weather, our shows for tonight were cancelled. They decided it would be unsafe for the dancers to be dancing which is perfectly understandable! Well, I think I’m going to stop typing now because I’m getting a headache from all the motion! (I just realized I should have said last night instead of tonight since I won’t be posting this until Thursday.)

WE miss you Nick!!! But I know you are in heaven visiting all the islands (and checking out all the beautiful women, says Oscar). We thought your nephew was coming last night, but they sent me home. Hopefully he will come soon!
Love you and miss you!
Theresa and Oscar
Could you imagine dancing during that, when you can't even walk up the stairs!?! Goodness!
Nice of them to cancel the shows!!

So your description of feeling heavy or floating up the stairs totally makes sense! As long as your tummy doesn't jump, though, I think I could do it without a problem. There's only one way to find out . . . ;)
