July 4 – 2016 – Day 9


It was nice waking up with an extra hour of sleep and without worrying about anything except just getting some deck chairs where we always sit.

This is our last day of the cruise and it is wonderful as it was a relaxing one with great weather to start.

Ed was up at 8:00am and all of the chairs by the pool in the lower level were already taken; but, where we like to sit was vacant so he grabbed them and then had breakfast.

Barb followed and we sat in the sun until 10:30am as we had received an invitation to tour the bridge so we decided to go see it as we had not been there for several years.   It was fun hearing and seeing what they do on the bridge.  There were only about 20 people and the actual Captain of the ship spent about ½ hour giving us a great presentation.

By then it was Noon so we this time went to the Aqua Spa and had lunch there, splitting a grilled salmon dish.  Why go inside and eat in the dining room when the weather is so nice; however, when we finished lunch, the clouds were blocking out the sun.  This is probably the least amount of time we have been in the sun on a cruise – just an hour!!

So we went to the cabin and did some packing to save time later.

During the week, if you had a blackjack they gave you a ticket for a drawing.  That drawing was at 2:00pm so we went to the casino and with the dozens of tickets that all three couples had, none of us won.

Then at 2:30pm there was a blackjack tournament and Ed came in second by 1 chip.  Still, it was a $130 win.

Since we were already in the casino, we all played a session where both Barb and Ed won nicely.

After that we played a session in the casino where both Ed and Barb won, making it a great afternoon.

The show tonight was a production number by the cast and it was not the best cast show, but we enjoyed it.

Then we had another really good dinner in the dining room and of course went to the casino.

For our last night in the casino, Barb was down just a little and Ed broke even so we called it a night making it one of the better cruises in the casino.

Tomorrow we will leave the ship, probably by 8am, take a Uber car to the Marriott and try to drive straight home – a 15 hour trip with a 1 hour time change.

This is our last blog for this trip – it has been a fun trip with good friends.
Night and thanks for reading and next I will post some videos of the trip.
Going out for our last night on the ship
