Day 3 - Boarding and At Sea

Well, today went much better than yesterday. Although we couldn't board until 1:00 that didn't keep us from getting up early. Some things never change.

Turned the car in about 10:30 and caught a ride with Enterprise to the Cruise Terminal. Couldn't believe how smoothly checkin went. Dropped off the large suitcases at the curb and took only two overnight bags, each of which had a bottle of wine. One bottle per adult allowed. Anyway, checkin was a breeze. No line, no wait. Since we were early we had about a 1 1/2 hour wait.

Finally out group was called and about 40 of us made for the ship. Check our passport photo, show our ship ID, have a photo taken and we were in. We have a mini-suite, forward on the starboard side. Barb thinks it's a long way forward. And it is. Most everything is aft. A long ways aft.

Our room was ready and suitcases had already arrived. Unpacking was interrupted by the required emergency drill, so we were off to our muster station with life vest in hand.

Not wanting to change out of shorts we opted for dinner at the Horizon Court and spent the rest of the evening in our cabin. By lights out there were white caps and most of the night we had a gentle roll.

Well, that's it for now.
