Wednesday, 8 November - Joining the Eurodam
A so-so breakfast at the hotel and a walk around the area, then repacking for boarding. A quick trip in the hotel shuttle, brief wait in the waiting area and soon we were at a table aboard the Eurodam, looking out over the Ft. Lauderdale skyline. The room was ready quickly and our luggage arrived shortly afterward. Departure was an hour later than advertised, but soon we were at sea. We had a nice dinner with lots of laughs with 2 other couples, then 60s music trivia and bed. We weren’t stellar at the trivia but there was good sing-along anyway

Thursday, 9 November - Half Moon Cay, Bahamas
We had been struggling with the Navigator app on our phones and internet on the laptop, so we visited Guest Services early to sort that all out, then enjoyed breakfast in the dining room.

Friday, 10 November -Turk & Caicos Islands
whose 4000 passengers were already ashore. After grabbing a quick lunch on board we walked into the pier area and registered for our tour, then had a few minutes to check out the shops. Nothing there of interest except a fridge magnet.
Then the piano bar for awhile, and to bed. Clocks spring forward tonight.

Saturday, 11 November - Dominican Republic
After a light lunch we wandered around the port area then back to the ship. Larry borrowed a cable from guest services so he could load our few photos onto the laptop and thus into the blog. After a relaxed afternoon, we met 2 new couples (both Canadian) for dinner, then took in a very amusing magic show and spent some time in the piano bar before bed.

Monday, 13 November – Curaçao
with its colourful buildings. Back on board, I enjoyed a massage, then found a couple to team up with for trivia – and we won!!! Missed just one question! Yay! We got fancy pins as our reward. Dinner with strangers was less-enjoyable than other nights (2 of the 3 of them were very crabby, finding fault with everything and being rude to the waitstaff), but the main stage show was a great male vocalist.

Tuesday, 14 November – Bonaire
with a terrific snorkeling stop in a cove with lots of varieties of coral and many types of fish. It was fairly windy, so sailing was particularly fun. Later we wandered the small downtown area and enjoyed gelato. Our dinner at the Pinnacle was outstanding
and then we enjoyed the routine of a comedienne from Nova Scotia, before finishing off the evening in our favourite piano bar. All just WOW!
