Heading To New York


    We finally have some nice warmer weather. It is sunny and warm as we head to New York for a 5 am docking. We are scheduled to leave the ship at 8:30. The day was much like all other sea days with an early breakfast and the 45 minute Zumba exercise class. That seemed to help with my ongoing cold. We are getting better but still sniffing! A ballroom dance class review followed. The instructor (from Ontario) did a great job on both zumba and the ballroom class. We reviewed 4 dances and hope that we can remember the steps.
      Packing followed. I think leaving ship is as hard as arriving because you can't
Sunrise
seem to be able to get everything in the suit cases! However, they are packed and will be gone from the room very soon. Lunch in the dining room and then another “eating” lecture - this one on stress and stress relief. We both could see some of our stressers in the talk. Later in the afternoon we had another line dance class and I am glad to say that Princess has finally gotten away from the “oldies” that they taught for years. I think the instructor did 4 different dances every class. They were simple but at least they were new. We did pick up a line dance for a “standard” dance song that all the bands in Highland Lakes Florida play. The rest of the afternoon went quickly.

  I took a photo of my photo that is framed on deck 8 of the Regal. I submitted it years ago and found it on our last trip. Night routine was the usual, cocktails, a Voice of the Ocean sing off, dinner and finally a very very funny comic in the Princess theatre. We gain an hour tonight and we hope the extra hour helps our colds. We fly to Toronto Tomorrow.
