Sorry It’s been so long, I’m trying to think of where to even start. I guess I’ll talk about where I’ve been lately. For the past month and a half we’ve been traveling to a bunch of different islands. So port days for me mean maybe get some lunch and lay on the beach. We play lots of volleyball and try not to get burnt in the sun. We kayak and one of my most favorite adventures was hiking down to a cave where there was a fresh water hole.
Here’s a list of the islands:
Champagne Bay, Vanuatu
Vila, Vanuatu
Lifou, Vanuatu
Nomea, New Caledonia
Isle of Pines, New Caledonia
Mystery Island, (I don’t know)
Our island cruises are coming to an end though so we will start going around Australia again, New Zealand and more which is exciting because last time we went to these places we were still in install so we couldn’t get off the ship.
We still have lots of sea days and I spend those laying on the pool deck in the day, watching the shows at night and going out to dinner. It’s kind of dangerous, all the restaurants we have on board because they’re all so good. The other day ago (which apparently is a phrase I say a lot because my friends laugh at me every time I say it now…) we went to the Brazilian Meat house on board and it was amazing. There was a soup and salad bar that had everything I could possibly want, so that was a perfect start. Then they started bringing the meat out, the first of six courses was bacon wrapped chicken, They also had an assortment of sauces that were all delicious. I then ate sausage, lamb, filet, pork, and another steak. I don’t think I have ever had a piece of meat better than the filet I had that night, I also don’t think I have ever been as full as I was that night. But that might be my new favorite place.
Speaking of new favorite places, I am currently writing this in my new favorite hideout. On the front of the ship the guest gym is on deck 12 and it’s perimeter is lined with treadmills looking out to the water. Just outside the window there is a deck and two little staircases that take you down a deck were there are a few lounge chairs and very few people which is always rare on the ship. So I will be spending more time right here.
We recently sent in our ship request to our casting director, I picked four ships I’m interested in doing after this contract. Some in Europe one out of Seattle, and another in the Caribbean so hopefully I’ll be hearing back about that soon. One of the boys in my cast now sent in audition videos for one of the Musicals Royal does “CATS” and he just found out that he got casted in the upcoming cast which is amazing but now he has to leave this contract early. Which is sad cause I love him, but now we’ll see what happens we might just reblock the shows and be down one boy or we might get a replacement boy sent to us.
I think that’s all for now…
Until next time
XOXO
Monica
