We had a nice bright sunny day for departure! We were moored just down from USS Midway and had a great view of the San Diego skyline from our patio |
For this trip, we spring for the extra $$ and got a balcony stateroom! No bigger than an interior cabin but with a lot better view! |
We had on board "Ambassadors" from Mexico to try to expose us to some of the culture of the country we would soon encounter. This man had a great voice and entertained us with many songs |
A dance duo also did many traditional Mexican dances including one with masks so as to appear old and feeble |
Then they shifted to traditional fishing dances |
Dancing fish! This is the stuff of which nightmares are made! |
Second night at sea was our first Gala dining night! We were joined on our trip by Bob's life long friend Mike Ewing and his wife Janet. |
Mike was Best Man at our wedding 50 years ago and is of Scottish origin. He enjoyed wearing his kilt at Gala night! |
Our Captain appeared on the Main Stage to offer a toast for our voyage |
Then the Oosterdam Singers and Dancers regaled us with hit music from the 50's on |
including, of course those wacky 60's |
And of course, what would a cruise be without towel animals! |
