A Sea Day

Day Three, a Sea Day
This a sea day so we just relaxed. We did not set the clock and we just slept until we woke .
At around 8:30 we made our way to the Concerto Dining room to have breakfast. The service was fantastic. Your every need was anticipated and satisfied. We were at a table for eight so it was a bit difficult to visit. There was a lady from Winnipeg, a couple from Florida and another couple from England.
After breakfast we checked out the sale in the Piazza. I was seriously tempted but I resisted.
Then we took on the job of finding Barb  Cail’s  photograph. There was a contest where by passengers were invited to submit photos taken on various cruises. These pictures would be framed and used to decorate the various decks aboard the Regal princess. One of Barb’s photos was chosen and she asked us to find it for her since she has not yet travelled on the Regal. We found it quite quickly . It was on Dolphin deck opposite state room 225. We took several photos of the photo.




Back in our room Ken got ready to go and sit in the sun for awhile and I worked on the blog.
The tie and cummerbund were delivered to our box and Ken brought it in when he returned from deck 19, Sky Deck!!
We decided to take it easy for lunch because tonight is formal night so we will have treats before and dinner will be special. We went to the international café and had a light snack.
Soon it was time for the Meet and Greet with Cruise Critic. There was just a small turn out of members but there were 5 officers present. So it was very nice. 



The big thing that was planned was a cabin crawl. We visited an inside room, a balcony, 2 mini suites and the owners suite. We were really impressed with how nice the side ways inside was. But the biggest impression was made by the owner’s suite. The owners or I guess I should say occupiers ordered canapés for us all. We nibbled and enjoyed the spacious suite. 





Them Lourdes presented gift bags to each of the ladies in the group. We visited and were very social for almost a half hour. The suite has a separate living room and bedroom and bath rooms of course. The wrap around balcony afforded an amazing view of the wake. It was wonderful. If ever we win the lottery that is where we will be.
In all we visited 5 rooms and as we left each room we drew a card from a deck of cards. The person who had the winning poker hand received a prize. Neither Ken or I had a poker hand worth mentioning. Three tens was the winning hand.
Then we came back to our room to get ready for formal night and to post to the blog.
We dressed and Ken poured a glass of wine and then we left.
The last couple appeared at the dining room today so now the table is full. The wait staff is Mel and Aladdin.
The people at the table are Greg and Janice, Roy and Christine, Randy and Janice and Ken and I.
Dinner was very good as usual. There was another Norman Love dessert.




We left the dining room right away and we went to the champagne waterfall and picked up a glass of champagne and then went to the Princess Theatre. We were royally entertained by Nathan Foley who 2 weeks ago won the award as  Princess’ Entertainer of the year. He was a fantastic singer who had the audience eating out of his hands.





After the show we went to the atrium to listen to Rhapsody and enjoy the dancing.






Then we came back to our room to get ready for the stop in St.Thomas tomorrow.





Day 3 has come to an end.
