This was supposed to be Aruba. We aren’t big fans of Aruba but it is a better destination than Nassau. There were a lot of not-very-happy ship passengers wandering the streets of Nassau yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We visited Marlene’s favorite dress shop but she found nothing interesting. We had a frozen drink then visited the Straw Market. There are many – probably 100 or so – small vendor booths there, all selling the same tourist junk. But Marlene found a vendor selling a large tie-dyed T-shirt that could be made into a dress. That was different enough to interest her so she now has a tie-dyed T-shirt dress. I got a draft beer then we headed back to the ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It wasn’t an Elegant Night, but the dinner menu included some interesting options. I had the Beef Wellington. It was overdone (as opposed to the underdone filet mignon from the previous dinner) but it was still very tasty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hit the casino again after dinner. Again, Marlene won a bit and I lost my usual $100 (down $400). We didn’t get to the Vista<\/em> Rockband which was playing country tunes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
