Day One on the Ruby Princess

Our cruise is off to a great start. We got to the ship just before
they were starting boarding so we got on very early and did our usual
tour of the ship before heading to the buffet for lunch with Andy and
Melissa. Shortly after we finished, Katie and Bill arrived - starved
- so I showed them the way to the buffet and we had a nice visit as
they got some food after their long trip.

After that we relaxed until the emergency drill, then watch the ship
pull out of Port Everglades together before having supper. This
evening Mary and I went to the opening night show which was very good.

So tomorrow is a day at sea with a number of presentations about the
upcoming ports and another relaxing day as we head to Ocho Rios
(Jamaca). More to come!
