Sea Day

Day 15

Cruise Day #11 -  Sea Day

Yet another big sleep in this morning as we burned the midnight oil :-)

We had coffee in our room and decided to skip breakfast.... well actually breakfast was over when we left the cabin! Ok then.... off for lunch in the Windjammer. After we finished we went up to deck 11 to see what was going on at the pool deck. Low an behold a huge BBQ Rib fest was underway!! Sheesh and we just ate! Turns out that on Sea Days they do special meals on the pool deck area.... we will know next time!

We found a couple chairs in the solarium right  beside our dinner friends Kieth and Marjorie and relaxed away the afternoon. Luckily the pool bartender arrived with his ice filled kart full of drinks to help us maintain proper fluid levels in the heat.
Drink trolley :-)
At 3 pm the Casino ran another Blackjack Tournament so both Kelly and I each bought in and played. Luckily both of us made the final table with our chip counts. We had a total of seven players battling it out for seven rounds of cards. In the end Kelly came out on top and I managed to come in second! Wish my friends could have seen it :-) We pocketed $200 between the two of us and left with big smiles.

Back to the room to get ready for our "Crown & Anchor Exclusive Top Tier Event".... hey free drinks for being a frequent cruiser! After the reception it was off to dinner in the Vivaldi Room. We got caught up on all the goings on with our dinner friends as we missed the last two nights together.

We looked through the ship's photo gallery and spotted some familiar faces amongst the huge wall displays. A little casino action and it was time to hit the rack.

We are in Malaga, Spain tomorrow and hope to follow our son Kris's footsteps to a neat pub offering beers from around the world.... oh and some shopping of course:-)
