We went to the casino on the theory that on the last day the odds were best in the morning. That didn&#8217;t work for me as I lost $175 (some in the morning, some at night) but still ended the cruise up $2,400. Can&#8217;t complain about that. Marlene ended the cruise up about $900. Neither of us had ever finished a cruise in the black so this was an unexpected bonus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After breakfast we explored the ship a bit.
