Tuesday - March 15, 2022

 I was finally able to download the missing pictures from yesterday.  Here we are along with our niece Christina Huizar.

And here is a picture taken through the fog of Alcatraz as we left San Francisco.  

Tuesday was an at sea day so we started slow with coffee in the cabin and finally made our way to the “World Fresh Market” which is Princess’ version of a buffet.  John had a waffle, bacon and a slice of roast beef and Robin had an omelette and bacon.  Then we wander the ship some more.  We found ourselves relaxing in one of the many bars and John had a Dirty Banana drink.  Although it was very good he only managed to drink about half, it was sort of like a shake.  

We attended a wine tasting in the afternoon.  Lot’s of nice canapés and 6 different wines starting with a very yummy champagne and ending with a Cabernet.  

We must be getting old, we both ended up with heartburn after the tasting so it was back to the cabin for a while.  A few movies later, we made our way to our dinner reservation at 7:00.  We ate in the Allegra dining room which is quite beautiful.  Unfortunately our cabin is closer to the front of the ship and the Allegra dining room is all the way at the aft.  (Did we mention?  This is a very, very big ship.)  And it is on Deck 6 but you can’t just take the elevator down to 6 to get there.  From mid ship on 6 you have to go up to 7, walk toward the aft and then go back down to 6.  Not really a big deal for most but when you have some difficulty walking, it’s a long way there and back.  We had a lovey dinner though and the service was much better than we had on Sunday night.  

Tomorrow is Santa Barbara.  They don’t dock so if you want to go ashore you have to take the water shuttle.  We are planning on staying on board but who knows what the day will bring.  

Our morning coffee just arrived, so until next time,

Hugs,

John and Robin
