Day 7

Today is our second to last day and another sea day. While the ports are fun because you get to see different cities and sights, the sea days are nice because they are so relaxing. Today was especially welcome after 3 ports in a row. Andrew has developed a cold, so he slept in while Karin went to the gym. Not as crowded today as it has been other mornings – people are getting lazy as the week wears on!
After the gym and showers, we had our breakfast in the dining room for the first time on this cruise. We always forget how nice it is to eat breakfast there, away from the noise and chaos of the breakfast buffet upstairs. We need to remember that sooner in the future! After a lovely breakfast, Karin headed up to the deck to read and get some sun, while Andrew went to his spot in “The Jungle” to catch up on his Cruise Critic review.

Today was very windy and the water was a little rough, but the sun was warm. We could see Cabo san Lucas as we went by about 1 pm today - one of the ports we visited last year and enjoyed very much. We spent the rest of the afternoon lazing around and reading.

Tonight was our 2nd formal night. We opted to dress to the “4 and ½’s” instead of the 9’s tonight, and it turned out just fine. Dinner was delicious, as usual. Karin had grouper and Andrew had shrimp. Yes, Shelby, Andrew does have shrimp for every meal. Even our waitress (whom we’ve had every night we’ve eaten in the main dining room and really love) knows Andrew will always order shrimp.
Tonight is another adults-only comedian at midnight. Buoyed by our successful attempt to stay up past 9 pm earlier in the week, we’re going to try for an encore. We also get to turn the clocks back an hour tonight, so it seems likely we’ll live to tell!

  1. Sounds like a relaxing way to end a great trip. I hope Andrew didn't catch my cold all the way down in Mexico which I have had (again) since Monday. We have had snow fluries most of last night and today here (WI) but so far hasn't stuck on the ground. Enjoy the rest of your trip and thanks again for the great pictures and writings about your trip.
