So I just realized it's been several days since I've posted, so my every-two-day rule has been broken... sorry! I worked all last weekend, then Monday and Tuesday I did really exciting things like laundry, cleaning, napping, reading, and playing cards. It was lovely. Very chill. I never even left the ship, hung out with friends and made some new friends, beauty.
So I'm changing things up for the next few work days - today and tomorrow, and then my next two work days, Monday and Tuesday, I am working in the Galley (kitchen) instead of the dining room! Today I cut up tons of tomatoes, washed lettuce, rolled pizza crust, washed pots and pans, and made a peach cake for dessert. It was a nice change of pace, and I like the galley crew so we had a good time. The schedule is a little different, they come in later in the morning but don't have long breaks like the dining room people - but when in the dining room, during my long breaks I usually sleep and that wasn't necessary when I didn't have to get up at 5:20! So it was basically a wash. It was a nice change of pace, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow, but as the schedule stands I'll be back in the Dining room by the end of next week, which is fine, too!
We had some big fuss today here on the ship - Princess Anne of England (Daughter of Queen Elizabeth and sister of Prince Charles) came for a visit with of course her entourage, so the ship has been super cleaned, we had to move some furniture this morning, and the princess got a tour of the ship and hospital and then got to meet some of the crew. I was not one of the chosen few, but caught a few glimpses of her throughout the day so was probably closer to royalty than I have ever been before. Whoopie. I guess it might have been a bigger deal if I was british, but honestly, it seemed like the ship went through a lot of trouble for a short visit. Whatever. It caused some excitement and I'm happy for those who were able to meet her and excited about it. The Captain must have announced at least a dozen times that photos are not allowed, so of course I don't have any but if I come across some of the official photos, I'll post them here.
Okay, well, that's all I have for now. I'm gonna be late for a card game so I have to go :) Life is good! Love, Krissy
