Cruising - April 20-23



We think we’re finally finding our way around.  The Diamond Lounge has a patio area that overlooks The Promenade and Starbucks.  We are able to watch the raffle drawings and the dance lessons – lots of fun to people-watch – while playing Rummy Cube.




We’ve had two formal nights on board and the majority of people are dressed as “smart casual”.  No one at our table has worn a tux or long dress – thank goodness.  The ship has professional photography sites spotted all over the ship for those one in a lifetime shots. People are lined up.

The ship is rocking and rolling more than expected for such a large ship – Pam is wearing her patch and feels fine, luckily.  In Blaze, where we yet once more partook of the happy hour, we sat with a couple from Germany, Uta and Heinrich.  We told them that we wouldn’t make it to their home town of Hamburg for schnapps at their home this time around, but would certainly wave as we sped by on the autobahn. Of course, they were disconsolate; we all were after several more drinks. Thank goodness we’ve only seen about 6 kids on board. The 5 small service dogs around the ship were cute though and well behaved.

This is the Solarium, where it's peaceful among the palm trees.  There are two large spas jutting out over the water plus a large spa and pool in the central area.
