Honestly, I can not believe I have lived 50 years! I mean how does that happen? It seems like yesterday I was celebrating 30 with a three week old baby boy. I am sure my parents feel like I was just born! It was a slow wake up with a nice breakfast at Ambersweet . . . today it was Avocado Toast which I love!
I headed back to the room to pack for my trip to the Miami Cruise Port. My boarding time was 1:30 pm and I was ready to get on the boat . . . I mean ship. Apparently avid cruisers get offended when you refer to a cruise ship as a boat. The drive to the port was less than 20 minutes. I have not cruised since 2019 so I was curious to see the changes.
Since this was a short cruise, I only had a small carry-on bag so did not drop bags with the porter. I knew that by the time I was onboard that my cabin would be ready and I wanted to get my stuff unpacked. I decided to have some fun taking silly photos in the cabin before heading out for the evening.
I treated myself to a special dinner at the Chef's Table . . . me and eight other people would have a multi course meal with a wine pairing for each course . . . I am not a drinker so this might be interesting! I never pay for the special restaurants so this was going to be a treat for me. It was neat that the chef came out with each course and talked about how she picked this course and prepared it.
I liked all the courses except for the roasted branzino (bottom row, first photo) . . . it wasn't horrible just not my favorite. The aftermath of all those glasses! One little sip and our server Arnold would add more.
I might have stumbled back to my room and been asleep very early. At least I did find my cabin!
