We are on the ship


We are officially on the ship and pulling out of the Seattle port. We have had our life jacket training and taken a tour of part of the ship. The common areas are much smaller than I expected since there are staterooms for 2500 people. Our stateroom is about the size of a Microtel room but we do have a balcony which is fantastic. The weather is absolutely perfect!
I am a little worn out due to climbing all the stairs! Just imagine 2500 people trying to all get to muster stations at once and then back up the elevators or stairs. Whew! I was worried about all the food but it looks like what calories I eat will be burned off by climbing stairs. Dinner will be at 5:45 p.m. each evening with formal nights Monday and Thursday. Fun times.
The internet is sparce and expensive so we may not be blogging as much as we had hoped. We will still jump on Facebook once a day to let you know where we are. More later.
