Sun Princess Part 10

Yesterday was the first sea day of this leg of the cruise. We spent most of the morning on Deck 8 by Crooners watching and listening to the various entertainment in the Piazza.

 Lunch was a slice of pepperoni pizza and a lamb shawarma.
 Both tasty. As part of the Princess Premier package you are entitled to unlimited "Premium" desserts. We didn't have any last week so this was the week to try one. I had the Godfather. Very good vanilla hard packed ice cream with fudge brownies. 
 It needed more chocolate sauce but I enjoyed it. After lunch we played three games of cribbage. All very close games. I managed to sneak out two wins.  


For dinner we tried to get into O'Malley's but it's very popular. No room at the pub for Angie and Glenn. We headed to The Eatery for buffet dinner. They have a pretty decent "Panda Express" style Asian food display. The chicken korma was very good. Not as good as Virgin Voyages.  

Today we are in Gilbraltar. I hear that The Rock is here. I plan to ask him whether he has repaired his relationship with Vin Diesel so he can return to his role as Luke Hobbs in the final Fast and Furious movies. I'll certainly report back what he tells me. 

In reality, we have an early morning excursion to see the rock. And we hope to avoid the many monkeys that are prevalent on our "stroll". That's the actual name of the tour: A Stroll on the Upper Rock. Meeting time is 8:10 AM. We're still six hours ahead of EST. The excursion is about three hours then we'll be back onboard for lunch. And probably a nap. We need to be well rested for tonight's big activity. We'll be learning what is behind this door with the big "S". More on that later.
