Cruise Part 4
We slept in the next day but not too late. We had to get out and get our pool chairs. About this point in the cruise, we realized we were racking up a pretty big bar bill. Luckily, we had our Miami purchase (insulated water bottles) and our Mexico purchase (liquor) and all the free iced tea we could drink (at least the stuff that we didn't set up as bowling pins in our room). We did what any young people with limited financial resources would do, mixed the liquor with the iced tea and took it to the pool deck.
This was a fantastic idea but the downside was that you had to return to the room occasionally to refill. On one of these trips, I ran into the Spaniards who were staying right across the hall from us. They forced me into their room and forced me to drink some whiskey, which I do not like at all. Probably goes back to my dad giving me scotch as a kid after I pestered him and me running to the toilet to spit it out.
I don't recall a lot more about this day at sea. Maybe it was the vodka but probably it's the time that has passed since this cruise. I know we went to a show one night and stayed about 10 minutes before we got bored and visited the casino. We were stopping in Cayman Islands next.
