Adventure of the Seas Day 7



Today we woke to a beautiful ocean view. The sky's had a few light clouds and blue water for as far as you can see






Watching the ocean we saw schools of flying fish. Of course as soon as I got my phone to take a picture they were gone.

I looked back out later and there were even more fish. I gave up and didn't even try to get pictures this time

Off to another feeding in the Windjammer. Then to the pool deck for a t-shirt sale. We found a couple of chairs in the shade and took it easy reading, watching people and watching the hosted activities. i.e. The sexiest man competition and the belly flop contest.

Our bartender , Gabor was working in the pool deck today. Of course he remembered our drinks again. What a memory he has.

After several hours at the pool we went back to our cabin for a short nap before we went down to the farewell show. The comic was pretty good. The orchestra still can't remember the lead in or any of the other songs they have plaid the entire cruise. Of course, the singers all know their songs without sheet music or some other sort of prompter. This was the singers first week on the ship.

Judy just held up my sea pass card and Gabor brought 2 drinks to our seat. He arrived with the correct drinks. As part of the end of cruise routine, you can pick crew members that went above and beyond and give them an extra tip. This is above and beyond what the crew get from the $12.95 per person per day that appears on our seapass account. We gave Gabor an envelope with $20 in it (this was in addition to all the tips he received from us for the week). We know for us it isn't much, but for him it was a lot. He was actually embarrassed getting the envelope and the thank you he received from us. This ship could take some major hints on how to treat their guests by following Gabor for a day.

We met our cabin steward in the hall as we were coming back to our cabin. We stopped and thanked him for taking care of us for the week. Robert will have an envelope waiting for him when we leave in the morning.

Off to bed. We have to be down in the conferences enter by 6:45 for a 7:00 disembarkation.
