A final day at sea. We had breakfast in the buffet and lunch at La Strada Grill – a small BBQ place outside on Deck 5. Pretty good jerk chicken and pulled pork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We happened across the “World Works Here” show in the theater. This was basically a celebration of the diversity of the crew – over 50 countries are represented in the 1,400 crew members. It featured some songs by the very talented entertainment staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I read for a couple of hours, then we had dinner in the buffet. After dinner we visited the casino one last time. And I lost another $95 – down $195 for the cruise. Not bad, really, for a 7-night cruise, but disappointing after being ahead for 5 days. Marlene lost a bundle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We danced to the Venezia <\/em>Rockband – a terrific band. Arguably better than the Luminosa <\/em>Rockband that made our transpacific cruise so pleasant. After dancing we had a late night snack and had a nice chat with another young couple who stopped by to compliment us for being “so full of life.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
