Cruise Day 2

Today was a sea day with a couple activities on board.  We enjoyed relaxing and getting to know the ship.
The water was a bit rough last night, but not too bad.  It's easier to tolerate rough seas when you are horizontal! The sailing is smoother today as we have one more sea day before we arrive at St Thomas.

After breakfast we walked around the ship for a bit until our cabin steward had finished with our room.  At 11:00 I played water pong, where you have to bounce ping pong balls into a cup. It was a Guests vs Crew challenge. I actually got 2 of 3 ping pong balls into a cup on my first turn.  The crew ended up winning, but we only had 1 more cup to go so it was closer than most Guests vs Crew challenges. 

After lunch in the restaurant, I did some exercises and Mary enjoyed some sun on our balcony.   Here are two dessert pictures to tempt you!  On the left is a chocolate tart that we had for lunch, and on the the right is the classic Princess Love Boat Dream that Mary had for dinner.



After that we hustled to the Princess Theater for a new show, Spotlight Bar.  People need to arrive over 30 minutes before the show to get a good seat.  Katie was busy with a work project so Becca came to the show with us.  It as a good show, and the singers and dancers performed great.  We have two more production shows scheduled later in the cruise, 5 Skies and Rock Opera. 

Tomorrow is a second sea day and our Most Traveled Guests luncheon with the Captain and officers.
