Sea Day #8

After our late night and huge meal we slept in this morning.  The usual coffee run by Kelly and then showers.

We headed upstairs for a look around the promenade and the Jewelry Shops. We are looking for a replacement watch for Kelly. Her's has self destructed so "time" for a replacement:-) She found a nice Citizen similar to her previous one and bought it. It needed sizing so we left it with the staff and will pick it up later.

We went to lunch in the dinning room today and had Cathy and Bryan join us when they arrived. A good conversation about last nights dinner ensued. 

Next was the Blackjack Tournament in which I manged to get top score to get into the final table. (This is the one you actually play for money)  In the end, I tied another lady so we split the winning pot of $250 bucks!  Nice little bonus for the day!

The ship has a small skating rink for Ice Shows and they opened it up for guests to use. Kelly passed but the three of us gave it a whirl. It was fun but the skates were pretty dull and ill fitting... We can now say we skated on the Pacific Ocean!

Good fun at sea.
Following this skating "workout" we headed upstairs for a cold Corona at the Tavern Bar then it was off to get ready for tonight's Headliner show.

The show featured three singers doing their imitation of the Rat Pack (Sammy, Frank and Dean) and they were very entertaining.  Bryan was a bit down on himself as he lost his drink punch card at the Tavern Bar... it had nine drinks left on it!

After the show they went to the Guest Services counter to inquire if anyone had turned it in and low and behold it was there! With faith in humanity restored, Bryan returned to his usual self :-)

Dinner with our usual crowd in the dinning lounge and then it was off to the 70's & 80's dance party in the main promenade.  Disco.. YMCA etc...

Off to bed... another tough day at sea.
