First Night Cruising

After the deck party and strolling around the ship, we came back to our room to find that our kids (with the help of grandparents for sure!) had ordered an anniversary cake to be delivered.
How nice was that!

Here at the Schooner's lounge, people could watch on the monitor where the ship, how deep the ocean was at the very spot we were at, and various other trivial info.
Another view thru our cabin window. We were about to go to Supper.
Chris taking a picture of the door and mirror which reflects him taking the picture while laying on the bed. How lazy was that!
We got dressed up for supper. Decided to dress up for every supper because it is our rare moments in life where we have the option. Of course, Chris forgot to use the flash for my pic.

Close to sunset.

After getting dressed, we went to see that night's entertainment. There was one show only of the Standup Comedian Hank McGauley. He was pretty good. Luckily this showing was also rated PG. Come to find out the next night at midnight was his adult only show. We ended up missing that one so we could get some zzzs.
We went to the main dining area for supper. Our dining room was the Mirage and we had table 14. We had a table for 4 to ourselves. It was nice. Next to our table, close to the window was a couple at a table for 2 who were celebrating their honeymoon. Three other tables near us was occupied by a large extended family having a reunion. The guys in that family were quite the characters. Each night, one of them would go around and offer each one some fresh ground pepper. I remember that I ate the Shrimp Ravioli with lobster sauce and Chris had the grilled salmon. After supper we went to the upper decks to see the night. Windjammer Marketplace is also on that deck.
