Friday-Monday, Mar 29-Apr 1, 2024

On the ship for 4 days, it is ship days as usual. Breakfast, Trivia, Lunch, Cards, Games, Ukulele Lessons and Dinner, followed by a Show and other musical offerings! Will post what we have! We even saw the “Green Flash”! Although I wasn’t prepared to photograph it! If you don’t know what the “Green Flash” is, Google it! Spectacular!

At two o’clock on Friday afternoon, the entertainment crew hosts the “World Cruise Boat Regatta”, a silly entertainment where passengers that wanted to, built some kind of floatable boat out of recycled materials on the ship (so that’s where all the coffee stirrer sticks disappeared to!). Then they were put to the test in the pool where a crew member would put a full bottle of water (the ‘Captain’) somewhere on the boat and if it stood up gor 3 whole seconds, the boat would pass! The final winner was voted by rounds of applause from the spectators. All good fun, lots of laughs and it kept the cocktail waitresses busy!

Fabulous shows in the Paladium each night! On Saturday, we attend the “Chef’s Table”, a 7 course meal with way too much wine! The food courses are fabulous and plated beautifully!

Sunday is Easter! Decorations abound all over the ship! Our room steward speaks English well but apparently doesn’t read it so well. Elee put a “Happy Easter” sign on our door and the steward thought it said “Happy Birthday”! We found this in our room!

With the Chef’s Table, you automatically get a tour of the galley where the food is prepared. We have toured ship’s galleys in the past and for the most part, we are uninterested. Instead, we request to tour the Bridge and are granted it! So, we are invited to a “Bridge Tour” on Monday! A fabulous tour of the Ship Bridge which is a spectacle in itself!

Dinner tonight is Filet Mignon and it didn’t disappoint!

Then the night show was a couple of ‘Diva’ friends that grew up together, Kirsty and Kirstin, a fun duo of voices depicting Divas from the history of music!
