10-28-25 at sea
I didn’t have an alarm set yet. I still woke up early, so I texted Wendy because I knew she would be up and met her for real breakfast. I had a French toast and she had a frittata, and then we went for a bit of a tour and then sat on the Lido deck with our feet in the pool. It was nice there was hardly anyone around because it was so early in the morning. My ankle has been bothering me quite a bit from putting it through the paces. after that we went to the Princess Arena for a Life at Sea presentation by our cruise director, Cole, who is a 28 year old retired dancer from New Zealand. He showed us how the crew lives behind the scenes
For the better part of the day, I wandered around and checked things out and chatted with people and spent a portion of it in my room doing work. I then went and played in a cornhole tournament on the Lido deck and that was just fun. At 4:45 I had a 75 minute full body massage in the lotus spa. For my therapist was brilliant. She has such strong hands. Tears also very grateful for the moody bee lip balm that I gave her. my room steward said my lights on my door give him a warm feeling
I just had time to return to my cabin and change into my whites which all turned out to be way too see-through so I wore one of the dresses that I brought and met Wendy‘s girls at Spellbound. Much like a Disney World ride it is very detailed and well done. The show came with a couple of drinks, some time hanging out in the private spellbound bar and then a 20 minute comedy magician show that was really pretty good. I also ordered the smoking mirrors drink. It is modelled after the famous magic castle in Hollywood.
The last event of the evening was Luminescence, a white adventure dance party. We danced and had fun but the various perfumes and colognes started to overwhelm me. I was glad I had made time for work and play today. My alarm is set to take in the 4th game in the World Series. It is supposed to be on at 2 am
I do have heat rash on my feet, argh
