Guesses for new set:
61. Well, I know some constructions of Romance languages, and rosa can mean red, and in French tête means head, so how about Testarosa, or maybe Testarossa or something like that?

63. Byzantine
64. The Pequod

66. crocheting

Oh, and our ship trivia team of four (teams could have six, and some illegally had 8 AND were winning) won the very last game of trivia of the voyage, and it was one we were all dreading because it was Name the Year. Luckily it was multiple choice, and we could use deductive reasoning to guess correctly. It was a good ending to a cruise that was the earliest of the season and had a lot of rain, cold and wind. We had never been to Alaska that early before.
