First Sea Day 10-27-14

Debbie and I love sleeping with the seas are swoopy so we slept well and long.  It was almost 9 before Kay called and asked us to meet them for breakfast.   We got up there about a half hour later and we sat there and talked until the other girls started wandering in for lunch.  It was quite swoopy and we just couldn’t figure out what we wanted to do so we really spent the day doing not much of anything.  We shopped first and I bought two watches at the watch sale….I have been looking for some time and finally found the right ones.  I also had some help from a gay guy that was shopping with me named Bill who told me if it spoke to me I should take it home and let it be part of my life.  It was so funny and he was such a fun guy. Carol Calvin was with us for a while too.  We ran into Nancy who was shopping too.   We had a blast doing just the shopping!

Debbie and I went to the casino for a little while then came back to get ready for dinner.  It is very rough and people are having a difficult time walking.  We met at the Atrium bar before dinner and had cocktails with a guy named Tom whose daughter was one of the acrobat performers on the ship.  He sat with Nancy, Deb, Debbie, Kay, Judy and I until dinner.  It was very crowded down there.  Dinner was good and we all enjoyed it except Kay.  She was mortified since she picked up the pepper mill and someone had not put the top back on it and all the peppercorns spilled out all over her appetizer and the table and the floor.  The waiter (Alejandro) quickly cleaned up the mess and got her another appetizer but she was so embarrassed it was difficult for her to enjoy the rest of her dinner.  Our assistant waiter’s name is Wajdi but I call him wiji is very cute and fun.  He always asked if you like you dinner or app or salad when he picks up the dirty dishes.  If you say you did he says “thank you very much”.  So I asked him if he made it and he said only if we say we liked it.  He is very cute.  Dinner was hot again but when dessert came the coffee was absolutely cold!  OMG!  They brought another pot but the first one had to have been sitting there since breakfast to be that cold in a thermal container.

The girls went to the show and Debbie and I went to the casino.  I was holding my own but Debbie was winning but in the end we both gave it back came back and called it a night.  So ends our second day of the second cruise.
