Cruise Views Part Two....

So, we are now cruising on into Ocho Rios, Jamaica. We didn't go far from the ship...instead we wandered around, did a little shopping, and had lunch at Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. It was pretty fun! Also, we stopped at a little local bar and had pina coladas and talked with the beach vendors. Brenda bought a walking stick!


Cory and I at Margaritaville...I had some local jerk chicken and Cory had some nachos. LOL!


This is the view from the pier (or whatever the appropriate term is). That's our ship, Rhapsody of the Seas. Pretty darn cool!


I am standing on Deck 5 of the ship. The views were so amazing!


Just a pretty flower that I came across while we were wandering around...the flowers and vegetation are really beautiful.


Back on the boat after a fun day in Jamaica. Aren't we cute??? It was Caribbean night on the ship, so we did our best with what we had to play along!! It would be nice if they would tell you before you pack that there are theme nights to be prepared for!


Here's a pic of the best wait staff around! Sergy (left) from the Ukraine was our assistant waiter, and for anything you asked him the response was, "My pleasure" in this lovely accent. I have Cory practicing it as we speak!!! In the middle is Enrico from Italy and he was the head waiter for our area. He was really interesting to talk to...and he has been working on cruise ships for over 15 years!! On the right is Allan. He was our waiter and is from the Phillapines. He was so cute and had a great sense of humor...for example when he would clear crumbs from the tablecloth in front of me he made a little vacuum cleaner noise!!!!


Cory, Charlie, and Colleen hoping to hit it big at the roulette wheel. Unfortunately, the wheel won!


The Wheel of Fortune slot machine, however, was a lucky place for me to sit!! I put in $2 and got $40 back....so I quit!!!


After dinner and the casino, Cory made his on board singing debut!!! He sang with Jim Moody two nights in a row!!! His ship hits included Five O'Clock Somewhere, Pretty Woman, and the theme from Gilligan's Island!!
