Day 3 Heading south!

 What a view to wake up to. Nothing but water until the clouds start. 

Breakfast was delivered again this morning, with some fruit, juice, croissants. and coffee for Rob. 

Every evening they provide all the activities for the next day. They call it the Princess Platter.  I like helping Toni pick the things to do and then she highlights them. There is a lot to do. 

  

While Rob went to play Suduko and listen to a couple educational talks (on the Panama Canal and Cruise Ships). I went with Toni to an Arts and Crafts session.  I helped Toni make a pretty Heart out of paper.

 

It was a little more rocky today, and the pool became a wave pool. It was a little rocky today but we made it with Ginger Ale, Green Apples, and other motion sickness remedies.

We are on our way across the Caribbean Sea to Cartagena, Columbia

Since I got to meet the Captain yesterday, I got a picture with him and all of his senior officers.

Toni called the Afternoon Tea, "The Queen's Tea" so I asked her what that meant.  She told me that:

Royal tradition says Afternoon Tea is celebrated “between 3 pm and 5 pm with an assortment of cakes, pastries, dainty sandwiches and, of course, scones with clotted cream, curd, and strawberry preserves.”

Well we had a Scone with Cream and Strawberry preserves at 3 pm! So I guess it was the Queen's Tea.

 

They try to help us get around the ship however they can.  This includes clues in the carpet. The Green dots meant your are on the starboard side and the red dots mean you are on the port side.  What is port and starboard? Just remember that left is four letters and port is 4 letters. So port is the left side of the ship.  Starboard is more than four letters and right is more than 5 letters. So Starboard is the right side.

 

It was dinner time and I got to point out everything on the menu to Toni and Rob

They both got the Shrimp Cocktail.

Toni add the French Onion Soup and a salad.

Rob had an Austrian Beef 

It isn't always easy to know where you are going on the ship but me and my signs make Toni more at ease and not stressed out finding her way to our room.  

First stop tomorrow is Cartagena, Columbia. So I have to go to sleep early so I can get up early for the visit.
