Our Anniversary Cruise, Day Two: Princess Cays

We had to board tenders to go to and from the ship.  There was quite a line waiting to get off the island at the end of the day.  The wait wasn't too bad with a bit of comedic relief provided by the locals...

Once back on the ship, we wandered from bow to stern to take a few photos.

I have to admit that I wasn't that impressed with the scenery on the island, save the beautiful Caribbean waters that surround it.  The hues are remarkable, and I never tired of seeing them at each port.


I think we grabbed a snack at the buffet and took it out to the Horizon Terrace when we tried to catch the sunset.  We ate so much, so often, it's hard to keep track!  Eventually we headed back to our cabin to get ready for dinner.  We enjoyed another tasty and lively meal with our new friends, Jay, Millary, and Sydney.

Rob had some steak dish - I can't remember, but I think it was a tenderloin.  I ordered something I couldn't pronounce that Florin said was full of seafood.  I wasn't disappointed and the flavor was fabulous, though the minute detail of being able to see eyes in the dish was slightly disconcerting.


And yes, I ate that poor, little calamari, though I passed on the crayfish.

It was at said meal that my favorite photo of the two of us was taken...


After our meal, we went to one of the lounges to see Phil Tag, a comedian from New York.  It was standing room only, and for good reason: he was hilarious.

I fell into bed that night, and this was probably the only night I slept fairly well.  One of my few complaints of the entire week was that I was really restless every night.  It took most of the trip for me to realize that it was probably because I didn't bring an alarm clock and I was subconsciously afraid we'd oversleep and missed paid-for-in-advance excursions. 

(Rob's translation: I am way too uptight)

Stay tuned for Day 3 - Ship Day!
