Second Sea Days

Good Morning,

It is our second sea day since we left Ft. Lauderdale, and I am behind already,, so whats new?  So on to catching up.  

We awoke late in the AM on Friday, and that was OK as we didn’t plan to have breakfast anyway, as we had a big dinner with Kieran, our nephew the night before, and it was wonderful.  We eat too much and had too many Margaritas, so needless to say we were not hungry by morning.

So we finished our morning routines and finished stuffing our carryons only to find out later they were too big to carry on,,, so,,, on the pier we took out meds and the computer bag, and carried that on, it all worked out.  There was no rush, as we were the only ship in port.   So everything was easy.  The ship wasn’t ready, even though it was 1PM,  but they gave us a goodie bag, with water and a granola bar incase we were hungry.  We found out later that they had not been able to complete the dress up part of the dry dock, because they had rain almost the entire two weeks they were there, so things like changing out chairs and cushions were not delivered.  But the hull work was completed and all the electrical word was also done..  And we got a brand new bed, it is glorious, new carpet throughout the ship.

We boarded about 30 minutes later and found our cabin and met our room stuert, Menino, he is very good, so good intact he won’t be with us for the whole cruise he is being promoted,,, not sure when, but I’m sure we will miss him.  

We had our bags in our room, when we returned from lunch, and we started unpacking all the stuff we just had to bring, that took us that afternoon and all day yesterday to get it organized, which is why I haven’t posted.  

We have now experienced two dinners and on breakfast in Club Class and I will say it is nice, and the extra things in the room are really nice.  It is almost like being in a suite, and honestly our room is plenty big.  I have pictures, but at the moment I haven’t been able to get them over to the mac, I have an appointment with the internet guy at 7 to see if he can resolve it.  So until then I will just send this post..

Tomorrow NY
