Hola! It's Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm currently somewhere between Cozumel, Mexico & Castaway Cay right now. We have a day at sea today & then all day on the island tomorrow! It's great on the ship! I truly do love it! I had a severe sinus infection diagnosed on Saturday.. That sucked.. But I'm all better now!! :o) Whoever says "you can't feel the ship moving"is seriously mistaken!! I've felt every wave we've hit! My cabin is just above the water line! Also, 2 nights ago our stabilizers wouldn't extend so it was awful! No throwing up yet but plenty of medication!! :o) My roomate is the same girl I roomed with in Orlando, Helen. She's from Australia & is a total sweetheart. She works in the same department as me & we get along pretty well! She even rarely complains about my snoring!! :oD Also, she was disapointed that I'm not a loud, rude, stupid & often drunk American as apparently the rest of the world perseves us! The food is very good for us crew. I even went up to the adult area for the guests & soaked in the spa for a bit the other night. It was the night our stabalizered didn't work. I, being the crazy that I am, tried to swim laps in the pool that night too! Needless to say, I'm a tad sore from getting slammed into the pool walls because of all the rocking! It's alright though! It was so cool! As the ship would rock from side to side the water would slosh about. It got so bad that as the water would go from one side to the other, almost 3 inches of the pool wall was visible because all the water had sloshed to the other side. Training's almost done. I should know my age group today or tomorrow. I requested children 8 years old & up! Oh! I've seen 2 shows on board so far. Both made me cry a little in the end! Lol! I'm such a sap! I'll be seeing the 3rd show this afternoon! I'm so excited!! All of the crew members have been so nice! Really! I've even got a bit of an admirer already!! Lol! He's from Jamaica & calls my room all the time to chat & he's an officer! :o) I'm a petty officer, but he's much higher on the food chain than I am! Our working cosutmes are as awful as ever! Got my first sunburn in Cozumel yesterday. My trainer gave Helen & I 5 hours off to go explore. We did for a bit but then got a taxi that took us to a beach.. The water is so pretty & clear it's unbelievable. I got in to almost my knees. It was pretty cold & there were these little silver fish everywhere! I said forget it! Helen laughed & called me a wuss, she's right! Can't wait to see you all in July! I must get going now though! Hope all is well! Call me on Saturdays when we're in Cape Canaveral! I love you!
Love, Stef!
