What fun we had on our cruise to Avalon, Catalina Island and to Ensenada, Mexico this week! We actually got tired of eating! We ate each night in the dining room with elegant appetizers (one favorite was strawberry bisque), entrees (lobster and prime rib...) and desserts (mmm, chocolate melting cake). (Mother's and Eileen's picture didn't turn out because of backlight from sunny window!) And a few of us made it up late one night for the Mexican buffet.
Some of us enjoyed workouts in the gym or running/jogging around the track (burn up a few of the 1000s of kcals consumed). While I was on the treadmill at the bow of the ship, I was treated to the leaping and swimming of many dolphins.
We enjoyed a "high tea" onboard with finger sandwiches and yummy little desserts and herbal tea.
Some of us were more adept at towel folding (like Chelsea), but we had fun making a dog, an elephant and a bunny.
We watched a crew member carve an ice carving. He was fast! I guess you have to work fast when you are on deck and not in a walk in refrigerator!
And of course we had lots of fun visiting and playing games (5 crowns). Oh yes, and doing some napping too!

Looks like you had a lot of fun!
Wow, sounds like a great time! How cool that you got to watch dolphins play while working out. I need some incentive like that!
What a fun time! Towel folding - now that sounds like a lot more fun than braiding one to use as an exercise tool. Excercise time must go faster when you can watch dolphins!
