Friday Feb 8 - Mon Feb 11 - cruise beginnings

Friday Feb 8th – Monday Feb 11th- Cruise Begins
On Board - Saturday noon.
On board - Saturday noon
Spent most of Friday packing and we met someone at the site who has an identical unit to ours, so we compared notes. He offered to take us to the ship tomorrow morning. On Saturday we closed up the unit and headed to the ship. Boarding was flawless and we were on-board, eating lunch about noon.  Our state-room is at the very back (aft), totally private, with nothing but ocean. The rooms are small but adequate and we do have a lovely balcony. Spent the next couple of days at sea, lounging round the pool, (there are 4 pools on-board) reading, eating and dancing the nights away. There is a great band on-board called ‘Solplay’. The other bands are okay but nothing great. The usual piano bar and a couple of other bar/dance floors and a late night disco. The shows in the evening are either broad-way style shows or acts that are competing for the ‘Princess Cruises Entertainer of the Year”.  Mostly comedians. VERY funny.  We are lucky to have picked this cruise to get the best of the best acts.  There is also a huge outdoor movie theatre and show either films (evening) or music videos (daytime). Once you find your way round the ship it really is quite beautiful.
