We are loving the adventure of it.
I spent the afternoon, after lunch, sprawled on a deck chair. I intended to go to the MUTS pool and watch football all afternoon, but when I arrived there just 5 minutes before the first game began, I should have known there would be no loungers available. Every lounger was holding either a person or a towel, a book, a single sandal- something to mark ownership by a person not present. The infamous chair hogs were out in force. When I finally spotted an empty chair, I set my towel on it but was immediately stopped by a nearby lounger occupant who informed me the chair was occupied. My response? "My God they're skinny". When told that the person had stepped away for lunch, I stated, "And just in the nick of time!". Yes, I was making a point, and many were amused by my show of force, but, in the end I decided that to stay in the vicinity of such enmity was not the way to spend the afternoon. I moved to an open chair at the back of the ship and spent the afternoon listening to a book. Much more fun.
I started dinner tonight with a delicious crab and caviar appetizer, followed by lobster and my usual plate of steamed vegetables.
