We woke up to being docked at the MSC’s private island called Ocean Cay.
We were here a couple of years ago and since then they have
added land and facilities.
The Yacht Club area is the farthest away from the ship and
they had golf carts so of course we hopped on one to get to area set aside for
us.
They brought us up lounge chairs to go on the grass between
their beach and restaurant.
We had a delightful lunch of 3 entrees - Lobster Roll, Salmon,
and Steak.
The weather turned very cloudy later in the afternoon so we decided
to go back to the ship.
As we got to the ship, I think everyone on the island
realized that it was about to rain and it did.
Thank goodness we got in before the rain.
The ship was to stay in port until 7:00pm; however, the
Captain cut the visit short because of high winds starting along with heavy
rain. They called everyone from the ship
off the island and set sail at about 4:00pm.
It was a little rocky at first but calmed down by 4:30pm.
Tonight the entertainment was from the music of Michale
Jackson and it was very good.
We had dinner with a couple we had met yesterday from Italy
and had a lot of fun.
We are docking in Miami tomorrow and taking a rental car to the
St. Petersburg airport – a 4-hour drive.
We fly Allegiant and will be to Peoria at 7:22pm and then
pick up an Avis rental car to drive home.
We have had a wonderful cruise on a great ship with unbelievable
service, including a good casino.
Tonight, in the casino, for the second night in a row, we had the must obnoxious tables and most fun we have every had! Their were only two of use, ourselves and the pilot from Frontier Airlines who were not playing up to $2,000 a hand and also had way too much to drink. We certainly had fun on the table - how could we? - we did. For the cruise and Barb was postive and Ed had a huge win and together it was the biggest 7-day cruise total ever!! WOW!
It will be good to be home.
Night and see you at home tomorrow.
