Last night turned into another Groundhog Day–type evening in the Observation Bar… and we are not mad about it one bit. 😄
Mr. C and I seem to have developed a nightly comedy routine that several guests now apparently look forward to. No pressure! Let’s just say we were all having a bloody good time. See how I’m working in the regional vocabulary, mate?
Dinner in The Restaurant was fantastic. We had “next door” tablemates we hadn’t met yet. They’re from Hollywood — not our Hollywood, but the one in Florida. This is their first world cruise (they’re doing the full 129 days 😳) and they are absolutely loving it. They usually sail with Norwegian, but like us, they’ve ventured over to Seabourn. We had such a fun time getting to know them and comparing cruise notes.
After dinner, we briefly considered hanging around for Charlie’s 9:30 set (about a 45-minute wait), but Netflix in our stateroom won that battle. There was also a new comedian performing in the Grand Salon, but unless it’s Chris Rock—or someone of that caliber—we tend to pass. Cozy pillows and streaming won. No regrets.
This morning we had breakfast in The Restaurant. We learned last night that it will now be open for breakfast every day, including port days. On port days, the hours are 8:00–9:00 am only, which works perfectly for us. We definitely eat healthier in The Restaurant than we do in either the Colonnade or the Patio. Fewer temptations… fewer “how did that pastry get on my plate?” moments.
After breakfast, Debbie secured our favorite loungers by the pool (priorities), while I bravely endured a visit to the Fitness Center. I met up with her afterward, feeling very virtuous for at least a solid 20 minutes. 💪
Today’s plan: another relaxing day poolside.
Tomorrow, we will be in Wellington.
