We sat outside on our balcony when we first got up and wow
was it hot and very humid - the first island that was humid like this. It is still about 85 degrees
as it was on the other islands; however, there are no clouds and no pollution in
the air. Of course, we are also closer
to the equator.
We left the ship at about 9am to just walk around the port as
we have been here before and there was no need to go on any tours. We ended up also walking into town and just
had fun going into a lot of local and also tourist shops. There was also a beautiful church that we
visited.
It is a beautiful French island, but it is also just like
the other islands we have seen. They are
just fun to be visiting.
There was a long walk from the edge of the port to the ship;
however, they had pedal cabs to take you to and from the ship, which we
used. We got back on the ship in time to
relax a little and then meet Jeff & Vera on the back of the ship for lunch.
Then of course we were us on the pool deck in the sun for a
couple of hours. Our tans are not as dark
as we have been in the past because we have not been able to use oil as the sun
has been too hot. Today was the first
day we used oil.
We also stayed the longest on the deck – 2 ½ hours before
going in to clean up.
Next of course was people watching and then the show which
was a Beetles Tribute band which easily was the worst performance of the
week. It really was the only show that
we didn’t like all week.
Tonight, we said goodbye to the staff in Blu, our nightly
restaurant as tomorrow the casino is paying for our dinner in the specialty
restaurant called Tuscan Grille. Tonight
Sara, the Guest Relations Manager’s wife joined us and we her and her husband
to join us tomorrow night. Should be
fun.
Then it was onto the casino where Barb broke even, and Ed
lost – now we are in losing territory with one night to go. Hopefully it will turn around tomorrow night
at the casino.
