When we woke up, we were still a long ways from Aruba so we
had breakfast and of course the weather is perfect so we laid out on the deck.
The ship docked ½ early at 10:30am and there was a rush to
get off the ship. The neat thing about
this stop is that we are in port until Midnight!
So we stayed on and ate lunch with our friends and then went
back on the sundeck until 2:30pm.
We have been here several times before including a week in
2009 so our plan was to get off at 3:00pm and walk around a little bit.
Then we had reservations at a hotel 10 minutes away for a
dinner on the beach at the Amsterdam Manor Hotel. It was an amazing experience. All of the tables and chairs were draped in
white and had torches for each table. We
had some great appetizers and then a wonderful fish dinner consisting of
several kinds of fish. There was even
music and a live female sax player to entertain us. We watched the sun set and had a wonderful
meal.
After dinner, we took a cab back to the hotel and changed
quickly to meet everyone in the casino.
We played for a few minutes and then cut out and went to see
the show. Tonight the show featured a
comedian who was without a doubt the funniest comedian that we have ever heard
on a cruise ship.
Then we went to the casino where Barb lost a little and Ed
and a good win.
Tomorrow we dock in Curacao – an island we have only been to
once and it was some time ago.
Night from way south.
