NCL PEARL/ENCORE CRUISE ESCAPES CRUISE-SEPTEMBER 25 2009

Ah. Last full day of the cruise, and a relaxing day at sea. What to do, what to do......... EAT!! and eat I did. Breakfast and lunch at the amazing buffet, some WII wall sword fighting to work some of the food off and then our group's final dinner *sob* at 'Indigo', which is the other main dining room. There really was so many dining choices, it was hard to fit everything into 5 nights. There's also a Shabu Shabu, Teppanyaki, Italian, French and even just eating at the buffet for dinner. The best part is you don't need any reservations, and if they do happen to be full they give you this beeper that works anywhere on the ship to let you know when your dinner's ready.  They really have a great system.

That night we went up to the top deck to the 'Spinnaker Lounge'. I believe we attempted to have a meeting in this area previously on the cruise but it was so rocky that day that being that high on the ship was unbareable! The cruise staff had a little talk show/comedy routine that was hilarious, and then we played this really fun game where we seperated into teams and different team members were asked to run up to the front if the possessed the item that was asked for. For example, I ran up when they asked "We need a lady in guys pants"... so I put on some strangers pants over my skirt and ran up as fast as I could. It really was a fun game.

After that, we headed to the Bliss Lounge for a Toga party. The staff was at the entrance, and very happy to give us our oh so flattering togas.  I stayed up for as long as I could, as I was very sad to be leaving NCL :(
