Day time and evening activities on the ship.

Most of the day Passengers use the time to rest,while waiting for lunch to be delivered by the officers, there are also Passengers chatting with one another. In the afternoon it was time to see the sunset, coincidentally the weather wasn't good so the sun was covered by clouds.
