The Sea Day Life

Last night we cruised away from out last port of call,  Puerto Vallarta. We have two full days and nights at sea and I am looking forward to it. We really have to pace ourselves because our inclination is to do everything. We spent time in the library, gym and internet cafe. Internet service is fairly expensive and the connection slower than we are used to. We elected to pay the price because we like to check our emails and Avril checks in at work. At lunch I order another cheeseburger, I guess I'm a burger kid of guy.

We return to the cabin to visit our collection of towel animals. Avril loves these and I have asked our room attendant to leave them all until we depart.

We took a quick walk around the ship to shoot photos of the unique interior before we head off to see "The Game of Love." This is a riff on the old Dating Game, where couples are asked to match answers to naughty questions. One newlywed couple dressed only in robes are trying to out "naughty" the other couples. When asked where the most unusual place they had made love, the husband answered "that would be in the b**t Bob." That lame joke is as old as me! The audience went wild and they eventually won. After the show we went to the VIFP party for free drinks, snacks and music. Carnival's VIFP (very important fun person) club membership level is based on the number of days you have cruised on Carnival. We are at the Gold level which got us the invite to this party.

Dinner is rapidly closing in and we hit the cabin to get dressed for another "elegant night" in the Gold Pearl dining room and we still have the table all to ourselves.

At the end of each dinner the waitstaff puts on costumes and dances for the diners. I video taped Avril partying down to the music. She is so much fun to cruise with and definitely my VIFP!
