Comfort and Relaxation - Day 2

We must have been sleepy cause we slept in until 9:30 am.  After watching a little TV in bed (I can’t remember the last time we did that!), we enjoyed the view from our balcony.  The pic shows looking forward... you can see the Captains bridge sticking out.

After we got ready and headed for breakfast.  Scott was in heaven!  A huge buffet with plates at least 16” across.  It took him so long to decide which selections should make the cut. 

After breakfast we took a walk around the decks of the ship.  It was fun to lean over the edge at the very front of the ship and watch the waves.   The sun was starting to come out so we headed back to our room to get our suits on and found a quiet spot on the deck to enjoy.

After an hour and a half of reading and resting, we headed back to our room to prep for the spa.  We had a 2:00 pm appointment for a couples massage.  It was fabulous.  Set on the top deck of the front of the ship…. In the privacy of our own cabana… so relaxing to listen to the wind and waves.  When we were finished, we decided to go spend some time in the thermal spa, which is a series of various steam rooms.  When finished I sat on a heated lounger and read my book.  So comfortable!  Actually, we lost track of time and happened to check when we were only 45 minutes from our dinner reservation.

Tonight was a formal meal so we had to get changed and dressed to the nines and get to our dining room by 5:45… we made it just in time. 



The menu offered a special meal tonight to celebrate 50 years of Princess cruises.  There were two options for each course of the meal… so Scott and I each ordered something different.  We even had mushroom soup and duck... it was so fun to try new things.

After dinner we walked the deck and enjoyed the fresh air… We walked to the front of the ship again and struggled against the force of the wind.  When we finished, my hair was a mess, so we decided to head back to our room and relax a bit.


It was a fabulous day!  Super relaxing.  Cannot wait for tomorrow.
