Today is the first of two sea day and then we will be home.
We have determined that an 11 day cruise to islands we have
been to many times, is not as much fun as we thought it would be. Of course, being with old friends, is always
fun.
Of course today was very warm and beautiful with not a cloud
in the sky the entire day.
As is our tradition on sea days we got up late, around
10:00am and went up to the top deck to be in the sun.
Mid-morning we also found out that we have been given 2
cruises with the only cost being port charges of around $200.00 each. The two cruises have a value of $20,000 and
needless to say we are very happy to receive these bookings.
At 12:30pm we went to the buffet and the back the ship to
have lunch with everyone.
As is Celebrity’s tradition, today is a very elaborate lunch
buffet with lots of extra foods it was a fun lunch.
Then we rested from a “busy” morning and lunch before
getting ready to meet Barb & Tim in the Casino. Jeff and Vera did not join us as they nap in
the afternoon.
In the casino, Barb and Ed both lost.
After the casino we came back to the room to get ready for
the evening’s activities. The dress code
tonight is Chic Night, a scaled down version of formal night.
The show tonight was high energy musical night with music
from Bruno Mars to the Beatles and it was good.
The performer played a sax and he was outstanding.
Then it was on to the casino, of course, where Barb and Ed lost
again. The 5 of us, plus Barb as our
cheerleader always have our own table and tonight, we have never lost so much
as a group. We were fortunate that we
lost the least, but it still hurt. For
those who know blackjack on the first shoe (8 decks) there were only 6 winning
hands!
Tomorrow is out last day of the cruise and it is at sea.
We are sooo looking forward to being home.
On our way home as fast as we can
Hugs from Gram and Ed
