Serenade of the Seas
Today’s Compass:
I’m up at 6:30 am (which is late for me) and waiting for our pre-breakfast to be delivered. I put the card on the door handle last night before we went to bed - we ordered coffee, OJ and a fruit plate for each of us. Planning to eat out on the balcony!
We just piddled around on the ship most of the morning and early afternoon. We had a coupon for 10% off a spa service, so we went there to see what was available and decided to book a Couples Hot Stones Heaven for 8:00 am tomorrow. Went to deck 5 to look at the jewelry that was on sale at the shops on board - they were having a 40% off sale. Found a couple of things that were pretty, but didn’t buy anything. We also found the picture gallery and found our pictures from dinner last night. Ours wasn’t good, but I thought B&C’s was very good. (The ship has photographers that wander around during dinner and take pictures, then you can buy them later if you want.)
The Cruise Critic Meet and Mingle was tonight at 5, dinner at 6, so I started getting ready around 3 (formal night). Todd LOVED the dress I made - for the first night I wore the last one I made with black, yellow, orange and red. We met people from all over and the Cruise Director, Simeon Baker, stopped by and gave away prizes. B won a small camera holder. We were also give something free - a little note book that says “Royal Caribbean International” on long cord with pen and slots for credit cards. L didn’t want his, so he gave it to us.
Supper was great. I had the Grilled Seafood Broquet (kabob) with Shrimp, Scallops and another kind of fish. It also came with broccoli and a patty of potato and cauliflower (which I need to find a recipe for because it was REALLY GOOD). Dessert was Strawberry Cheesecake.
After dinner, T gambled for a while, then we went to the show for that night - The Unexpected Boys - a Musical Tribute to Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons! There were really good! After that, we went to the Battle of the Sexes. We were split up (of course) . Todd helped the men lose by not knowing how to turn his 6 into a 9 quickly! Lol While he went back to gamble after the game, I made a food run -- back to the SeaView Café. This time I got a Reuben and a Nathan’s Hot Dog and took them back to the room and split them so we could each have half. Soon after I crawled into bed to watch some TV, T came back to the room and we turned in for the night.
Tomorrows post will have many more pictures!
Tomorrow - Curacao!!!!!
