Europe 2011 - Day 10

The Volcano
What a great day to wake up to the ship sailing and knowing that we don’t have to get off the ship today. We have been at a dead run since we got on the ship at Barcelona; but, that is what you do!

We were up on the adult Serenity deck early to get our deck chairs and stayed out until Noon.  Just before lunch we passed by the active volcano on the island of Stromboli which was quite a site.  Today, there were no eruptions.  Then we came in and showered off the oil and went to lunch.

After lunch we attempted to qualify for the slot tournament and this time, Ed was lucky enough to make the finals. We then played a session in the casino before the slot finals.

The slot finals is a 5 minute contest between the top 10 people and unfortunately, Ed came in second this time. That is two seconds in two day – first is $500 and second is a Carnival hat. Oh well, there is one more blackjack and one more slot tournament left.

We picked up our pictures from yesterday and decided to rest before getting ready for formal night.

We dressed and went down early for formal night and watched people – what fun.

Dinner on formal night is always great, Barb had lobster and I had prime rib. Then it was off to the show to see a really good song and dance show.

Finally to the casino where we did well and off to bed.

Tomorrow – Dubrovnik, Croatia.
