Hi Again Folks! Well I just realized my last two posts today had the date as June 8, not June 10. I really am trying to go back in time so this amazing journey doesn’t end! Forever June 8th!! Lol.
We saw some cool stuff while sailing away from this beautiful part of the world. There was a Portuguese Tall Ship that we passed that is here for a few days en route to New York City harbor for America’s 250th celebration on July 4th. Many tall ships from around the world will be there for the festivities. How cool is that?
We also passed lots of small sail boats in the bay. Our tour guide said in a few weeks many sail boats will be here for a festival. They’re all sailing down from Newport, Rhode Island. Wish we could be here to see that. Should I have us go back in time again??
After all that sail away fun, we had another great night on this lovely lady (that’s what the Captain calls her!), the Regent Seven Seas Mariner. We started with dinner at the Specialty Steakhouse Restaurant named Prime 7.
We were supposed to have dinner with our good friends Bo and Sherpa (Bob), who were on the safari with us. But Bo called us late in the day and said she stressed her leg walking around Bermuda so they’d have to cancel. So we had a nice romantic dinner by ourselves!
That’s lucky for you guys since now I can include food pics! Of course I always eat too much at this restaurant but it’s our last time here this voyage (yes, more blubbering while writing this!).
So I started with two appetizers of both the Seared Diver Scallops and the Lump Crab Cake. For my main I had the massive 18 ounce Bone-In Ribeye (they say the weight is mostly in the bone… yeah, right!). I finished strong with the 14 Layer (yep, you heard that right, I counted) Chocolate Mousse Cake! The diet begins the day I get off this floating calorie machine!!
After dinner we went to the 9:30 PM show, which was a Guest Entertainer/Vocal Group named Bachelors of Broadway. They were a trio of men singing Broadway tunes in three-part harmony. They sang songs from Wicked, Jersey Boys, Les Miserables, and many more. They put on an awesome show!
We called it a night after that. Tomorrow we start our final two sea days en route to the final port of Miami! Still can’t believe it’s almost over. Hope everyone had a great day!
