We are very good at At Sea Days


We are Very Good at Days at Sea

 

We rock in this department.

I have heard over and over again from so many people I know and strangers “how hard it is to relax all day and do nothing”

The three of us don’t have this affliction. In the least.

Today was a splendid day. Sunny and hotter. Very very windy as we are of course cruising in the middle of the sea, but lovely nonetheless. And Beauty is someone who never gets bored. She just entertains herself always. She lays in the sun with us and listens to her music, she swims, she dances on the upper deck for hours whether there are people or no people watching. She goes back to the room and takes hot showers and orders herself room service. She eats a lot and all the time. She is an easy kid (in this respect) and always has been. Since 4 yrs old and still now-she could disappear in the house for hours and just play alone.

Very very very unlike my eldest son.

Anyways today Hubby and I soaked in the sun, each finished a whole book, soaked in the Jacuzzis, ate lunch, and sat on the deck of our tiny little room while Beauty watched TV. Tonight the show as we do every night and a 9pm dinner. We are finally getting into the vacation and relaxing. With my ankle at about 80% now (still hobble down stairs and challenging to walk up stairs, still can’t sit cross legged, still swell at night) we are THRILLED as could have been a lot worse trust me. It is totally doable-especially for someone like me who is pretty pain tolerant and easilyy convinces my brain I am fine.

 

Tomorrow is back to 4 full days of touring. 3 in Croatia and 1 of Venice before our next at Sea day. Great way to see Europe I tell you!
