Music at the pool<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We had breakfast with Chris and Kathy, a couple from Ft Myers. That lasted until lunch. Marlene then grabbed us a couple of lounge chairs at the pool and we spent some time in both the hot tub and the pool, chatting with fellow passengers. Then we had front-row seats to a dance exhibition by the Jade <\/em>cast, followed by some very energetic dance music by a consortium of musicians from the various bands on board. Very good. We danced. And got some sun. Too much sun – we both have sunburned faces now. But not too bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the pool I read and did some photo editing. Then we went to the early show – a soloist named Emily Viancourt. She sang mostly country tunes but also some Motown. Very good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had dinner in the Garden Cafe and chatted with Helen and Louise. Then we went to the Spinnaker Lounge to dance to Motown tunes by the Rockaway Duo. Fun. We finished the evening in the casino. It was kind to Marlene but not to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
