Hi guys! Today is a sea day so I had a chance to check in. Yesterday in PV we went on the Canopy trip....what a fun experience!! Our excursion consisted of me, Tom, Masaki & Amanda, Todd, Jim and Jan, Anthony & Paige. This is such an great experience! It's pretty scary on the first zip line but we all caught on quick enough and the rest was just great! We rode up into the jungle (1 hr ride)in the back of an open-air truck. I'm sure we looked like a pack of day labors off to work the fields.
Last night (after attending Liar's Club) we ate at the Captain's table. He is very nice, good sense of humor. Our table was me, Tom, Olivia, daughter Joanna, Lawrence, Joanna & Tony, Jean & Clyde (they won the prize for the most nights on Radisson!)and Muriel, the cruise coordinator. We had ordered Dover Sole and Grand Manier (sp) Souffle for last night the day before and so glad we did. It was out of this world! After dinner we opted for the disco rather than the casino. Met up with most of the MINTERS there and as usual...had lots of fun dancing. Suzanne did a lap dance (literally) for Clyde (89 years old) :eek: I was happy that all 3 doctors (Anthony, Masaki and Amanda) were watching too in case any resesitation was needed! Jean was a good sport about it all....as was Clyde (who appeared to be loving every moment of it!)Another Conga line but instead of Tom starting it, Anthony started it. The crew seems to adore all the MINTERS...I think our group has made it a fun week for them too.
Tidbits: yesterday our team won Trivia (Anna Louisa, her husband Peter, her sister-in-law Elizabeth, me, Lawrence, Suzanne. BTW, Anna Louisa's tequilla demonstration was wonderful. She sure knows her stuff! We actually did tasting of 3 different kinds, followed by Margarittas. Not sure if anyone else has posted this yet or not but Amanda is pregnant!! This is such exciting news. We found out night before last in Signatures when they were sitting at the large table of 8 next to our large table of 8....all sorts of cheering going on!! We are all so thrilled for them and feel like their baby already has dozens of Aunts and Uncles!
Also. at Signatures...both tables (16 of us) toasted Karen on her Birthday and sang Happy Birthday too! (we all of course sang later at the table too)
Today is warm and I'm going to go join Tom up by the pool. This morning we had Bridge tours and this afternoon we're going on a tour of the galley.
It's hard to imagine such a wonderful week drawing to a close. :mecry: I wish this had been a 10 night cruise like yours Pam! Tomorrow night we're eating dinner with Ngaire and Ken and Anne, I know this will be a ROAR! Also, tomorrow night is our final Cosmo party with our master Todd in Ngaire & Ken's large suite. We also have our tacky gift exchange (Katie bar the door for what gifts may show up :eek: )
Well....all my usual rambling but just writing things as they pop into my mind.
Pam, Ruth the 3 card poker dealer says "HI"...she really does have a phenominal memory!
Bye!
