One last beer on land
This is our itinerary
This is the image in a mirror
San Antonio, Chile - our embarcation port
We got onboard early
Time to explore the ship
The Atrium
One main dining room

We had a balcony cabin
We were impressed with the layout
especially the storage space and the bathroom

Checking out the places to avoid too
Some "moderate" sea waves are affecting the pool
The water is washing over the deck and they temporarily drained the pool
We bought matching sweatshirts
Smart to buy a style with a hood
A very attractive glass ceiling
View from the stern of the Versaille Room
"The Melodic Trio" from the Phillipines
was our favorite group
There were wonderful shows in the theater every night, but photos were understandably not allowed
The performers offered workshop activities for the passengers during the day
This is a Tango Lesson given by the "Pampas Devils"
This is a musical theater workshop. We are learning a routine to "Summer Nights" from Grease
I'm the one in the hat. I wore a hat a lot because I liked having it when out on deck
   
Dinner in the Versailles Dining Room
The best desserts were in the buffet


A picture before changing clothes
for the pool

   

The water in the pool is perfectly calm today

Probably because we are in port




   
One of the crew's safety drills
Although the gym had a very well equipped gym, I preferred to get my exercise
by walking around the perimeter of the ship
This is the lifeboat deck where it could be very windy
I did not use the small running track
I never run on a moving ship
This is the corridor of our cabin.
I trekked this 1/3 mile perimeter many times
before even the cabin attendants were awake

Life rafts are stored in those containers
A convenient bar along the route
