This cruise is like doing a crossing…..lots of sea days with
no land in sight. We actually ordered
breakfast from room service this morning at 7:30 AM to make us stop being
lazy. We got up and had coffee and some
of what we ordered then we tracked down our cabin steward, Desree, to get some
laundry bags. Debbie washed some laundry
yesterday and today was my day and we are doing general housekeeping and
rearranging things this morning. It is
very hot outside now and of course it is not very cool inside. We think they just want you to think you are
in control of the temperature of your room but you really aren’t. It was comfortable in here until today.
We met Judy and Kay for lunch then Debbie and I went to get
a ticket to play in the slot tournament. We had lots of fun doing it and yours truly is
on the board in #11th place.
The top twenty get to play in the finals on the last sea day. We had dinner with the girls and since we had
already seen the show last cruise, we went to the casino and proceeded to lose
again. I played penny slots for a while
and won back some of what I lost on the tables.
The table was empty when we left so apparently the house was the winner
last night.
When we left Debbie and I decided to get a cup of tea to
take back to the cabin. It had gotten
quite bumpy considering we are now in the Caribbean and not the north
Atlantic. We took the elevator to deck
11 and the Windjammer was closed so we made our way in the wind and rocking
across the pool deck where we saw Deb and Patty watching the movie. It was not
easy walking and as we entered the Solarium the floor was covered in water
where it was sloshing out of the pool.
They were draining it which was a good idea. We got our tea and Debbie wanted a
cookie. The only cookies in the Solarium
Park Café were lemon so we again try our best to maneuver across the pool deck
to the elevators and not spill our tea.
We go to deck 5 Lattitudes and they were out of everything so we
obviously were not supposed to have anything to eat with the tea on this
night. The rocking was so bad that the
drawers in the cabin kept opening by themselves! Must be the wind since the seas are choppy
but certainly don’t look that bad.
