New Years 2017 – Day 20




Our last day at sea and our last day of the cruise.  Yes we ready to come home.  This is the longest that we have ever been away and it is a little bit too long, but we have had a good cruise.

I forgot to tell you that last night we were surprised with a huge platter of exotic fruits and a $400 on board credit to be used on our next trip.  What a great present from the Guests Relations Manager who we had talked to the day before about a couple of concerns.

We slept very late as last night was a late night and then we had to set the clocks ahead by 1 hour for a total of 4 hours of time changes on this trip.

As usual, Ed was up and went down one floor for breakfast and then the gym while Barb got ready.

We picked up our passports, watched a Salsa dance class and bought a gift for the casino cage manager, who we have known for several cruises before going to lunch.

After lunch we came back to the cabin and packed for the trip and after packing we went to the casino for an afternoon session where Barb lost a tiny bit and Ed had a nice win.

The show tonight was a really good one – it was called “Boys in the Band” and was a nonstop showcase of the world’s most loved hits from The Jersey Boys, The Beatles, The Jackson 5 and more.  The crowd and we loved the show; it wasn’t great, just good fun.

Dinner was a lot of fun and sad because we really had a great time with Brian and Sandy and we have made plans to see them in London in October.  Today was Brian’s birthday and of course they brought him out a cake.  In addition, last night they received the same big fruit plate with strange fruit as we did so they brought it to dinner for all of us to enjoy.   The Guest Services Manager had sent us a bottle of Champaign and we took it to dinner to share with Brian and Sandy.

After we said our good byes to Brian and Sandy we went to the casino where Barb broke even and Ed finished the cruise with a good win.  We said good bye to the casino staff and went to the room to finish packing.

Tomorrow we arrive in Singapore for a couple of days and it will be fun.

I will try to post videos sometime tomorrow from our hotel.
