Day Two

Well, the day is not over yet and I have not even posted the first days events yet. I will try to take some time to do it after dinner tonight.

Today has been a lazy day. I woke up early and went to get some coffee on deck nine. I left Kasey in bed, but left the walkie talkie and told her that she could call me on channel one later. Come to find out, the walkie talkies did not work. They work and all, but they could not reach me on deck nine with Kasey down on deck three. I think that it might be because of the metal hull and I know that at least some of the floors are metal too. This might be blocking the signal. She said that while she was in the elevator, it worked though. Ah well. I think that they will still be useful at some point.

Today we really did a whole lot of nothing so far, except for a lot of people watching. We enjoy watching inebriated people dance and everyone else doing whatever they do. We like trying to figure out what’s “really” going on. :)

They are so cool.

We also met some new people from Houston, but I can only remember one of their names because it was unique. Her name was Rabia (pronounced “Robbie - uh”). Her mom said that she had a friend from Pakistan who had named their daughter that and she liked it. Kasey and I thought it was pretty cool too. Rabia, her mom and two other ladies joined us in people watching for a couple of hours too.

While watching the people dance, we even saw Nick and Kendra get in the small crowd and boogy. It was pretty funny. We will have to mention it to them at dinner tonight.

Anyway, as you have probably guessed, our day is not yet over and I need to cut this short to make it to our first formal dinner of the week. I will be sure to take some pics at dinner and post those too.

That reminds me. Another thing that we learned is that the lunch that they serve in the dining room is WAY better than the buffet. Kasey and I both had chicken lettuce wraps and calamari. The calamari was actually good too. I had expected it to be rubbery.
