We had another sea day today which turned out to be quite busy. I did the passengers vs officers challenge in the morning. It was a beanbag toss and, of course, the officers won easily with 6 of them tossing multiple times vs a horde of passengers who only got to toss twice. But it was still a lot of fun.
The Most Traveled Guest luncheon was fabulous! (Click any picture to make it larger.) We had personalized menus and a full three course meal accompanied by wine which was way too much food compared to our typical lunches.
Above right is the appetizer, fried mozzarella cheese with tomato sauce. On the left is a lamb chop and a bacon wrapped steak, and the chocolate dessert was simply fabulous.
We had the head of the ship's Beverage and Food service eating at our table along with 3 other guests. The conversation was good as we learned about each other and our past cruises.
What a great event to experience!
After the luncheon, Katie's friend Becca and I did lawn bowling and a golf putting contest. I came in 2nd at lawn bowling. I love these sporting events!
After dinner we attended a show by the Extravaganza Duo, a pair of violinists from Ukraine. They were excellent and played a wide range of music, including one country and western number.
So it was a busy and very enjoyable day.
Tomorrow we are at St Thomas, our first port of this cruise.

Oh my goodness, that luncheon looked fabulous. What a treat and it had to be so interesting to sit at the table with the head of food service. I don't know if I'll ever have enough cruises to be invited to something like that, but I can dream! From the pictures it looks like you are having beautiful weather. Enjoy!!!
