Ship stuff

Last of the vacation pictures...just some shots of our days on the ship. Miami was rainy and cloudy the afternoon we left, but that icky weather didn't last for long.

Hands down, the best thing about the ship was our stateroom. We'd booked a mini suite, but were extremely surprised to find out that we'd been upgraded to a larger one once we'd gotten on board.

Our balcony was H-U-G-E. Our room was on the back right corner of the boat so the balcony wrapped all the way around our room. We were so spoiled with amazing views!

Isn't he pretty? And aren't I a great photographer? I did the sunset myself. ☺

Each night we'd come back to our room and there would be a towel animal of some kind left on our bed. One night we came back to this little guy, which the maid had put Rob's Cozumel hat on...we thought it was funny! One night on the ship there was a big watch show and Rob just couldn't decide which watch he had to have. Sweet guy that he is, he sprung for one for me as well.

Random, late night self portrait in the karaoke lounge along with a ship side sunset.

So, maybe you've noticed the abundance of thumbs up shots of Rob? Well, I'd made the mistake of telling him that only old people give the thumbs up sign, so he proceeded to give me a thumbs up in nearly EVERY picture I took on this vacation. Yes, he thinks he's funny.

For dinner there is assigned seating, and you dine at that same table each night. When we'd arrived on the first night we discovered that we had a booth rather than a large table, which mean that we'd be sitting across from another couple and we'd be forced to talk to them, and only them. We were certain that we'd be sat with a weirdo couple, but were SO lucky to have the best couple ever placed there instead. We had such a good time with them and still keep in touch.

Every night at dinner the waitstaff put on a show of some sort. One night it was an Italian song, another night they danced to some bootie shakin' song, another night it was a rave kind of performance...glow sticks and all. It was always entertaining!

Arriving in Miami early in the morning and a little bummed that the cruise was over. Hopefully we'll be back soon!
