ship life

On routine days life on the ship is not that different than home except at this time we are rolling a bit.  Some of the passengers cannot tolerate even a little movement but those of us with sea legs enjoy  it especially at night as it rocks you like a baby at night and you sleep well.  Now, that is my experience and there are, of course, my detractors who think I am crazy.

It has been unbelievably warm.  We are having 72 to 75 degree weather.  I must look at where we are as things changed somewhat because of Nassau.  We have to still be near the Carribean because the Atlantic Ocean is not as warm as they keep posting water temperature.  I did looke at the elevator mats and they tell me it is Monday.

Last night Ada, Joan and I were the only ones at our table and we did a lot of giggling.  Roland (our officer) the other night stopped by to say hello and I think I saw a little sign of relief as our quite vocal table mate wAs not present.  I, however encountered him up in the Lido while I was getting my fruit, yogurt and sweet roll.  I do not drink the coffee in the Lido as it is utterly vile.  I buy a Latte at the Exploration cafe and then go to the Lido.  Bruce and I exchanged a few snarky remarks and he was in his best form.

Paul's friend did get in touch with me and left me his cabin number.  He did come to my cabin to visit and get aquainted.  He was telling me that he loved to dance and he had been at the Ocean Bar the night before but there were not many ladies until this short little gal named Joan came down from her cabin.  That, of course, was my friend Joan so I called her up and gave her a bad time about the rumors of what she did the night before embellishing the imaginary naughty parts.   The three of us did lunch together.

I is going to be a fun cruise.
