Sunday Again!!

This is Sunday the 21^st and tomorrow we will be in New York and we begin cruise number three.

We are always so happy to be continuing on when others have to disembark.

Anyway we wanted to see some of New York but there was not a tour planned for those of us continuing on but that is no longer true so tomorrow morning we will be enjoying a 5 hour tour of the area. We are really looking forward to it.

Today we have to pack up our things and get them ready for the big move. For this last cruise we will be in C 609 which is a balcony on Deck 10. I figured we should be lower and did not need a balcony for the crossing of the Atlantic but we are hoping for lots of warm weather as we travel up the east coast. I remember how nice it could be during the last week of September. We always called it Indian summer. Here’s hoping it is warm and sunny and that the fall colors have begun.

Anyway we put some things in suitcases and everything that is on hangers stay on hangers. A team arrives and all of our cases are put on a trolley and all of our things on hangers are put on a rack and they take everything to our new digs for us. So when we get back from our tour all we have to do is empty the suitcases and we are all set for another glorious ten days.

At noon we had our final luncheon with our new friends Doug and Nickie and Garry and Linda. It was lots of fun and we took loads of photos.  We always spend more time laughing than eating when we are with them. I hope we will meet again someday.

Last evening was the final formal night for this cruise and it was very nice. We had lobster again which is unusual. The normal routine is the have just one lobster night per cruise. Gerri and Max,( our Swiss tablemates) had joined the pop choir and their performance was last night so of course we had to attend. It was fun and they did a great job. We had one of our special coffee while waiting for the performance to begin.

Yesterday was the day I had Princess celebrate my birthday so we had cake and a serenade last evening as well. 

I decided to have my hair done in honor of the occasion. It sure needed it. I was nervous about trying to stand on one foot and shampoo my hair so it certainly needed a good wash and set.

I am getting hungry so it must be time for breakfast.

Oh I thought you might like to see the glorious colors of my foot.hee hee!!
