Jayne Curry was very entertaining indeed, very witty and a great voice. What I hadn’t realised was she wasn’t actually the main entertainment but was doing an extra show at 10:30. The theatre was packed with many standing at the back too, I don’t recall ever seeing an act on a ship that popular. She did say she had been doing cruise ships for 12 years now but has just recently got exclusive to Celebrity so we may see her later in the year when we do the Baltic’s.
As hoped we were first in and able to get of the ship quite quickly. The Silhouette was with us again today along with Oosterdam and Allure of the Seas.
We then caught the ferry across the bay and took a stroll up a deserted Front Street, coming out on to the northern end of beach and securing two beds and a parasol for the day. Around 9:30 yet another ship appeared, this time Carnival Splendor making it five in total. Being as it was so quiet we walked the length of the beach and back while the sea just washed over our feet as we did so. Just beautiful!!
It didn’t take too long for the beach to fill and despite the numbers on the beach it didn’t feel crowded at all. Then to add to the numbers just after midday we were joined by one of our old ships, Costa Magica. Making a total of six in port today and quite a gathering at the piers. This port does seem to pack them in and copes with it too.
We stayed on the beach until just before 3:00 and made our way back to the ship and get a closer look at the Allure.
Time to cool off a bit and take a shower then it’s Tuscan Grille time.
