Eastern Caribbean Cruise – Day Five

Today was a non-starter. I had an excursion planned at 9:45 a.m.

I got off the ship at 8:00 a.m. to walk around the pier and terminal area. It was already 87 degrees out there.  As you can see, we docked next to the Celebrity Excel.

All God’s creatures, great and small…

I decided there was no way I would make it through the excursion so I’m now back in board with a cold soda and in the air conditioning.  Safety first.

It was a nice and relaxing day on board and as it got hotter, I knew that I made the right decision to stay on board.

After dinner, I road the Rising Tide Bar.  It’s a six to eight minute ride on the platform between Deck 5 (the promenade) and Deck 8 (Central Park).  Once in Central Park, I took a lot of evening pictures.  It is certainly beautiful at night.

The entertainment was just as peaceful as the Park.

When I came back to my room, I went out on my balcony in the dark to absorb the sights and sounds of Central Park.  When I came back in, I found that the dessert fairy had arrived.  It’s too late to eat them tonight so I put them in my room fridge for tomorrow.

By the way, some of you have asked if I could point out my room.  With the magic of marking, I highlighted my room for you.  You can see that I have a good view of what’s going on.  Not too low, not too high.  Just right. 🙂

So, as the captain announced around 6:30 p.m., we are now on our way back to Miami.  We have two sea days ahead of us and will arrive back to port early Sunday morning.

Thanks for following along.
