This was a long cruise! We were on the ship for 15 days, six of those days were spent at sea. We did manage to find a way to pass all that time. I spent a lot of time in the movie theater, Rob only spent a little time there...he preferred napping or the gym over movie watching. Crazy guy. We also logged a lot of domino playing hours. In the library, by the pool, in our room, everywhere we went, we had our trusty dominoes.
The nightly shows were just so-so. We went to a handful of them, but more often than not skipped them. We went to a few of the day shows, The Newlywed game being one of them. We were selected to come on stage and participate as one of three couples. It was half fun, half embarrassing. The mortifying part is that it was taped and they played the embarrassing portion on a loop on every single television throughout the boat for the rest of the cruise. Thank you, Holland America.
The actual pools on this ship were a tad lame, swimming-wise, but they were prime people watching spots...and also the scene of our epic giant size chess and table tennis games.
I let Rob suck me in to spending too many hundreds of dollars playing BINGO the last week...we never won. Not even once. I was SO close one day, but someone else shouted BINGO! when I had just one spot left to get. It was sad.
Each night we'd come back to our room to find a towel creation on our bed. These guys were my favorite two. I think he's supposed to be a ninja. Or a monkey. I dunno.
We docked in Florida and stuck around there for a couple days, but I failed to take a single picture. Really, all I did was watch hours upon hours of Royal Wedding footage while Rob caught up on his sleep. We are super exciting people.
Overall, it was a fabulous trip, glad we went, made lotsa memories. Good times.
Okay, now I'm done. Promise not to bore you with anymore vacation photos. ☺

It looks like a great time! I love the chess set! And the towel animals! How creative. Maybe I should make them for the next house guests we have. (that would actually be really funny if I did) I am sad you lost at Bingo, but we should totally find a place and play some bingo here. I have always wanted to play. :)
I am glad you guy's were able to go and relax! Sounds like you had a great time!! On to your next vacation:) Hope to see you guy's this summer!
That sounds like so much fun! I'm glad you had a good time. That's hilarious about the Newlywed game! I wish I could've seen it.
