Woke to a view of blue sky, white fluffy clouds and a calm
ocean. Leisurely breakfast at the Horizon Bistro before venturing out to the
pool area for a bit of people watching, swimming and watching movies on the
outdoor screen while in the Spa to pass the day away at sea.
Today when we reach the south east tip of Cuba we will enter
the traffic separation scheme (containers ships, oil tanks we see in the
distance) will change to a north westerly course as we make our way through the
Old Bahamas channel. Once clear of this channel we will go in a more northerly
course through the Santaren Channel and overnight maintain a northerly course
up the Straits of Florida before the final approach to Port Everglades Fort
Lauderdale.We have noticed on-board about 80% of the people are grossly
obese, 10% obese and the rest are health eaters who look after their bodies.
The sights you see around the pool are cardiac arrest candidates lounging in or
around the pools/spas.Last full day of the 10 day Southern Caribbean cruise I
thought it was Eastern. A majority of the passengers on board will be departing
tomorrow so there will be a new crowd of passengers joining the next Western
Caribbean cruise tomorrow when the Royal Princess docks at Port Everglades,
Fort Lauderdale.Tonight
for a change we dressed for dinner instead of our usual casual clothes. Normal
routine down to the Atrium “In the Piazza” to watch the passenger’s talent show
then choir sing not bad and a bit different seeing the cruise entertainers were
having the night off. Nice quiet night as a large percentage of the passengers
were ending their holiday and packing to leave tomorrow.
