Jan 14 - At sea

Today is a sea day as we head to our first actual port of call, Ocho Rios, Jamaica.  

We really don’t have a big update as it was to be a lazy day!  Dianne and I went to breakfast in the dining room, while Mary grabbed a quick breakfast upstairs and went to a 9 AM presentation in the theatre.

We browsed a bit in one of the shops, wandered around, and then went back to our room where Mary was waiting to join us for lunch.  The lido always has lots of choices - so that’s where we went.  

The captain came on with an announcement that there was a medical emergency and we would be picking up speed to get to Ocho Rios tonight.  No one is allowed off the ship, but the patient will be able to get medical attention.  Crossing our fingers that it all works out for that family. 🤞🤞

In the afternoon we heard voices calling our names from Deck 5! So of course we had to answer the call!  


Donatello and DaVinci!!


Look at that smile! Dianne had Donatello, and guess who had DaVinci? 

Dinner time came all too soon! Oink! Oink!  But we managed to eat our full meals!  And an extra chocolate dessert!!  

We sat in the Piazza for a while after dinner and then came back to our balcony to watch the arrival into Ocho Rios.  We also saw Venus, the moon, Mars, Pollux and Castor in the sky.

So that was our day!  We’ll sleep well tonight in preparation for our stop in Jamaica tomorrow.

Stay tuned!
