Day 12 Princess Cays
| What a delightful day in the Caribbean!! We were seasoned enough at cruising to know to grab a tender ticket right after breakfast. Today that allowed us to get in tender group three. |
My view watching J walk in backwards into the water as he was wearing snorkelling fins. Empty chairs in front of me and the Caribbean Princess in the distance.
| There are picnic tables to eat at under shade but I elected to return our beach chairs. Once J returned we were ready to ride a tender back to the ship. |
| Trenyce came up the stairs in the audience right near me. |

Day 10 at Sea
Today was our final day at sea on the first of our two 10 day cruises. We have the good fortune to stay on for a second 10 day cruise.
At 10 am this morning we were invited to an information session called "Transit Guest Get Together" where the process to disembark the ship was fully explained to us. It was a good session to fully explain expectations for going ashore for immigration purposes. Ultimately, we are to meet in the Coral Dining Room at 9:20 am with the group of about 300 back to back cruising "In Transit" guests. Hopefully the process won't be too lengthy. Under an hour would be a win!
Just as we left that session, we were fortunate to stumble upon the line of people leaving the Princess Theatre food demonstration session and join them for a tour in the kitchen!
And we are so thankful not to have to put our suitcases outside in the hallway for removal by the ship's staff because they are disembarking!

Day 9 At Sea
It is a real luxury to have a day at sea in the Caribbean. I don't feel pressure to pack so much information into the blog - so we will share just a few things from today.
After breakfast my morning was built around doing a load of laundry in the laundrette! It is a thrill to have access to washers and dryers on Princess ships and not be obliged to use their laundry service.
Two Maytag Commercial washers and dryers located on our deck five (Plaza) and were simple to operate. All machines were in use once I added our load into one of the two washers!
