Emerald Princess-At Sea
90F,
cloudy, some sun
On
our way to Panama! TK generously brought me coffee and a slice of tasty Stollen
bread this morning. While he spent time at the aft pool, Deck 15, I went to the
Princess Theater for the presentation on Cartagena, Colombia. It refreshed my
memory of our last two visits. We have a private tour planned with Mr. Emerald,
Leland Miles. After that informative presentation, I went to the Effy
jewelry shop for an “auction” Princess style. I do think people attend for the
raffle and free Mimosas. The jewelry is beautiful to see--pearls, tanzanite,
diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, and more—earrings, rings, necklaces, and
bracelets all a glitter.
I
joined TK for lunch, tried the cheeseburger grill today. The pizza and Stromboli
are better. Since tonight is another formal evening, I am hoping for a good
dinner. Obviously, I am not starving.
Deck 15 has many public areas with lots of pools, bars, and food. Below you will see two of the pool areas, Neptune and Calypso--the other is TK's favorite, the Aft Pool. The Calypso area is where guests watch the "Movie Under The Stars" or "MUTS." You can see hot tubs in the photos, too. Pizza is offered at "Slice," burgers at "Salty Dog." Ice cream cones are available nearby, and there are four huge sections of the "World Marketplace," the buffet with multiple offerings for breakfast-6 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.; lunch--11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.; snack--3 p.m.to 5 p.m. and dinner--5:30 p.m. to 11 p.m.

In
the afternoon by the Neptune Reef & Pool, we watched the ice carving demonstration—the
two men carved an owl and a chicken in 13 minutes using 300 pound blocks of
ice. They will be rechilled and used as display at the buffet.

I
read the rest of the afternoon on the balcony, a Jonathan Kellerman book, Time
Bomb. TK is a people watcher.
I better get ready for formal night!!
