Monday's Happenings

Today started off early....Roger, Shelia and Kim were all up by 3 a.m.  Roger and I went exploring the ship to find all of the activity zones.  It was so quiet at that time.  Only us and the cleaning crew were out.  We went up to the Lido deck to get a cup of coffee and walk around the top deck.  The ship was cruising at 20 knots and the winds were 25 knots.  It was so windy I thought I was going to get blown off of the deck.  The wind was so strong it was blowing the coffee out of my cup....what a hoot!!  We are having a great time.

We all went shopping on Rodeo Drive today.  What fun.
 
Kim decided that she was going to lay out in the sun today.  She had a blast "people watching" on the Lido deck.  She tried to work out in the gym this morning but with the winds rocking our ship it was not cooperating with her on the equipment.  She finally gave up and found a rocking chair on deck to sit in.  What a girl!!

Tonight was our first formal night.  We had a wonderful dinner tonight.  Roger, Kim and Anita had lobster and shrimp.  Roger and Anita had cherries jubilee.  Kim had pineapple sherbert with her frozen marguarita's.  Shelia had prime rib and orange sherbert.  Our waiter Edsel has been wonderful.

We had the balcony wall between our rooms opened today so now we have an extra long balcony so we can all sit out on the balcony together........all except Anita who will come out but not look over the edge.  The Sunrises and Sunsets have been gorgeous.

Tomorrow is our first port of call.  Grand Caymans, Cayman Islands.  Kim, Roger and Shelia will be leaving the ship at 8 a.m. to go swim with the dolphins and stingrays.  Then maybe some shopping before we return to the ship.  Anita decided that she did not want to swim with the dolphins so she has booked a motorcoach tour of the island and some shopping.  She is having a blast.

Camera battery is dead now, so after I get it charged I will post pictures of today.  Kim is leaving to go try again to workout in the gym........I think she is really sneaking up to the top deck....he he he he he.  Until later...........Shelia
