We figured if we have to post full pics, we'll split up the days a bit.
Day 3 - At Sea - Temp was getting warmer and water getting calmer. No photos of this day. To busy trying to get back money in the casino. : ) Did pretty good really. The nice thing is to be able to bank the money. So for the 1st 3 days I have been ahead and playing with THEIR money. Well, till tonight. Now I'm about even. It is like they tightened everything up. We didn't and are not doing formal nights but are doing Sterling Steak House Monday evening.
Found out that the full suites DO still have free internet access in the cafe. NOT WIRELESS as we all know. So if you have a full suite. Insist that you have it. What they may do is charge you and then take it off the bill at the end. It's just that the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing. MINOR detail. TV satellite goes down a lot as will the Internet in this part of the cruise. Going through football and Nascar withdrawals for sure. You will get ESPN and CNN and stuff. And some movies that run. There are also a lot of shows about the ship and a morning show that says what is going on that day.
Day 4 - At Sea - Water and air temp in the 70's Sailed 1293 miles so far with 923 to go to Kona. Calm waters compared to the 1st few days. Today is cruise around the ship day with cameras. Mainly the video however. But should get SOME more stills. Trying to book this same trip in 2009 but couldn't talk to future cruise folks as there is only one person there and SOMEONE from the CC group kept them busy. :-x LOL Oct. 2009 is not opened up yet but will put deposit down anyhow. Balcony breakfast coming so we have to get at it.
Day 5 - At Sea - Going to work on the new camera on this day and weatherproof case for it so as we can get use to it. Can not believe it, we haven't even gone to a dining room yet. Going to Sterling Steak House this evening. Still need to get photos of the Atrium and stuff. We want to get video of the violinist who plays there. He is very good. Weather - Air & Water temps Mid 70's. Sailed 1790 miles. 430 miles remaining to Kona. Will pull in there at 8am Hawaii time. Have changed clocks back 3 different times thus far.
