Last two days

We awoke to,a much more threatening sky this morning. And not such good news for our home coming, as we heard about Sandy!

Yesterday was a quite day, there was lots of sun and it was very warm, felt like the Caribbean, high 80 s. I guess that is what is feeding the storm. Some one on the elevator this morning said they saw a water spot, ugh, we don't need them!

Today we will do some packing, and fill out the customs forms, not going to be a pool day I don't think

It was beautiful when we finely arrived in Fort Lauderdale three hours late

I don't have a picture of the last night on the ship, but I can tell you it was rough!!!

We are now in Savannah Ga, and it is and was beautiful. We will leave for home in the morning, but we have really enjoyed our extra day here. I will post some photos when we get home,,,,,,, if we have power.

Another sea day

We awoke at 0645 but luckily, we had gained an hour, last night so it didn't seem so early. The dawn began to break outside our cabin balcony, as we are heading due west, so the sun is coming up on the aft of the ship. The sea had calmed to a mere 8 - 12 ft swells and the sky was clear for miles.

Ed went to the buffet line for coffee and pastries for me, before heading off to meet Jack for breakfast in the main dinning room. Jack and Ed had arranged with the head waiter last night to have eggs Benedict for breakfast because it was not on the regular menu, and they both enjoyed every morsel!! After breakfast we got our suites on and went to the Lido deck and found a location to spend the day poolside. The seas continued to be calm and the skies clear with the temperature in the low 80s. Who would think we could swim, and sun bathe on this trip, usually it is quite cool, but because we are traveling so much further south it is warm and sunny. For those of you that like such info, we are traveling, 26 degrees north and 30 degrees west, a magnificent day!!!

Cheese Burgers were for lunch along with Bloody Mary's!

We adjoined to our room early in the afternoon to get ready for dinner and an evening at Skywalker's lounge, to meet up with the group.

We it is another beautiful day, we had a great time last night, but I got a sunburn yesterday, and what did I wake up to???

Sea days

The begging of our sea days, the weather is great, today, the sun is shinning, yesterday was a bit gray, but nice. Seas have been calm.

Yesterday they announced that we had an outbreak of Norovirus, ugh! So our ultimate ship tour was canceled, bummer. We hope the tour will go if this outbreak doesn't get worse, but I am not counting on it.

Oh well it is a very pretty day and smooth seas so who am I to compline. We are well and sure hope to stay that way.
