Cruise Life: We had a late start this morning. We didn't leave our cabin until sometime after 9am. We were hoping that most of our fellow cruisers would leave the ship and head over to Princess Cays for some fun in the sun.
We made our way to the Horizon Court buffet to find it quite busy. We heard the announcement that the ship's tenders were ready to take people ashore. Hubby and I decided to stay onboard and enjoy the ship to ourselves. That wasn't the case.
After breakfast we walked around the pool area and decided it was a bit too cool there. We headed back to our cabin thinking we could sit on our balcony while our cabin was being cleaned. Our balcony was a bit chilly/breezy and the sun was shining on the other side of the ship, starboard side. By this time, we were wearing our sweat jackets. Hubby and I watched as the tender boats were making their way to the beach. I heard another announcement for fellow cruisers to allow some time for the tenders to reach ashore.
Around noon time, I had a crazy idea to video the tender boats in the water. I was beginning to see more whitecaps in the water. The tenders were now bobbing around while trying to make their way to the beach as well as coming back towards the ship.
Around 1pm, another announcement was heard. They were not allowing any more passengers to tender ashore. The water was getting rough and the captain was concerned about safety. I can understand as I thought a few tenders were close to toppling over. Safety first....
In the late afternoon, I continue the packing that I left from yesterday. It went a lot faster than anticipated. All three pieces of our luggage were placed in the hallway outside our cabin door before 5pm. Done! Sad, but done!

Sometime during my packing adventure our cabin phone rings. Hubby answers and starts chatting with a Princess rep from the Purser's Desk. Hmmmm...I wonder what's going on. Did we win a free cruise????? Not! The call was to thank me for writing up a nice review on our Cozumel excursion. Besides being chatty, I do enjoy writing and doing reviews. Maybe one day all this will pay off. I do like to share our adventures. The good and the not so good.
We were moping around in our cabin until late evening and decided to catch the last movie of our cruise. Up we went to MUTS. First we find our popcorn.

The MUTS movie tonight: The Giver with Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep. We don't have any problems finding a place to sit. I assume most fellow cruisers are now packing. It's a quiet evening on the ship.
