Just the day we've been waiting on since Christmas when we booked the trip. Four night cruise for Chris and me on Royal Caribbean's Sovereign of the Seas to the Bahamas. I slept late that morning since we were just waiting on the time to leave. I had just a little of organizing my suitcases to do. Then I helped Ms. Linda to a couple loads of laundry at the campgound's laundry mat. Our campsite was right beside our camper so it was easy to do. At 11:30 WF and Papa Tince drove us the 5 miles to Port Canaveral. There was already a line of people waiting outside in line. Our ticket said boarding time was at 1:00 pm. It was our first cruise so we didn't know what to expect. We figured that we could get there a little earlier than 1. We were just waiting to leave anyway. We could wait in line just as easy. It wasn't but a couple of minutes and we were inside the building going thru the metal detectors. Going thru metal detectors is not an everyday occurence for us. After going up the stairs to the second story of the Port, we had to wait in line for about 10 minutes. Before long we had our room key and was on our way to get on the ship. The ship was nice. Since it was before 1, we couldn't go to our room yet so we went to get lunch at the WindJammer Cafe. They had a little bit of everything. I wasn't very hungry so I had chicken paella with some yellow rice for contrast and some bourbon glazed pork. It was good. Then I tried some small bites of dessert of various cheesecakes. Chris ate various vegetable dishes that I can't describe. He didn't even know what they were called. It took him a couple of looks at the buffet lines to find the english name of the dished. Here's some of the watermelon art that decorated the buffet lines:
An eagle! It's face is obstructed by the glass covering the buffet.
