Day 2

The second day of our cruise was possibly my favorite. It was kind of like Christmas Eve. It was our first full day at sea and the day prior to getting to Mexico, so there was just a lot of excitement in the air of the absolute fun to come. Brian and I started the day off by going to work out...it was nice, except being on a treadmill on a cruise ship, while you can see the water? Well, it made this lady feel a little weird (aka, motion sickness). After breakfast we spent the day lounging in the sun, exploring the boat, eating and napping.
Look at how blue this water is!!! It took my breath away, it was so beautiful!!!
This was the "hairy chest" contest. It was hilarious, the guys who entered were very entertaining!Mmm, Corona, takes me back to Mexico. Oh wait, we ARE GOING TO MEXICO, whoo hoo!!!!
It was also "formal" night, so after a relaxing day we got all gussied up and attended the Captain's appetizer and cocktail hour, followed by a verrrry good dinner. It was the one night lobster was on the menu, and almost all of us at our table ordered that. It was fantastic!
Here we are at cocktail hour:
This was another couple at our dinner table, Shelly & Chad, we ended up hanging out with them quite a bit and they added a lot of fun and memories to our trip. This particular day was their 10th wedding anniversary, so here is the staff singing them a special song (and delivering a cake).

Here we are at "sunset"!

Here's the "late night" buffet, this night also featured ice sculptures and lots of other foods shaped into cute critters and what not.
