Home sweet home


We're safely onboard, with no mishaps en route. We were in our cabin by 12:15pm and at lunch in the dining room (having a cloth napkin placed in our laps and a menu in our hands) by 12:30 We looked at each other and said, "We have 89 99 more days of this!!!!!". And that just boggles the mind. Of course, I had salmon. I will be growing gills from all the seafood I'll be eating! G had beef tenderloins. And pronounced them very tender.

Apparently an email went out to the different departments in the ship stating that we are going to be on board until February. And we were going to try to fly under the radar, letting just the maitre d' (Nicola Furlan from Italy) and our cabin steward (Cristian from Romania) know of our plans. We had no idea that someone had connected the dots of all these individual cruises into something more significant.

This is a photo of our cabin. There is a vanity you don't see and a hallway closet and bath. I'll post more photos later. The Love Boat cabins it's not, but it is perfect for us as we have quick access to the outer decks on the back of the ship.

We are awaiting sailaway right now (we're 30 minutes late already), but it's a quick sail to Eleuthera in the Bahamas and Princess' private beach resort, Princess Cays. Stay tuned for photos of that in the next few days.

Life is good.
