 Kacey’s Royal Caribbean Cruise Line vacation continues.

Day 6: At Sea

Another lazy day today, but really, isn’t that what vacation is all about? Being able to schedule your day according to your own pace, or not schedule anything at all if you like. After our morning coffee and a brisk walk on deck, Mark and I decided to have an early lunch in the dining room. It was an extremely comfortable sit down meal perfect for our easy slow pace that day! I wish we had discovered it sooner.

There are always plenty of things to do onboard. Rhapsody of the Seas has a great fitness center where I attempted to work off some of the delicious meals I have been having this week. Afterwards, there is always the hot tubs, the sauna, or even a massage at the ShipShape center for some even deeper relaxation.

The show tonight was definitely my favorite of all. It was called “Ballroom Fever” and featured the ship’s crew of singers and dancers in an assortment of Latin style and classic ballroom routines. An avid watcher of the television program, So You Think You Can Dance, I loved all of the glitzy costumes, set changes, and upbeat music.

After dinner we went to an adults-only game show that the crew put on called, “The Quest.” It was wild! It was a scavenger hunt that consisted of backwards pants, human pyramids, and even a fashion show for men dressed in women’s clothing. I laughed so hard that I’m sure I will have a sore stomach in the morning. The best part was everyone’s willingness to participate and give everything they’ve got for their team—and I do mean everything! When the game was over there was live music and even a chocolate buffet! As if I needed more dessert, but when it’s in buffet form who can resist?

Victoria, B.C. tomorrow. I am really looking forward to this city as everyone says how beautiful it is. I can’t wait to see it for myself!
