I know I haven’t blogged for awhile, but you have to admit, I am the only one taking the time so far to do this, so you can’t complain too much. I know we have a loyal following at West Hills (Hi Jolene!) and all of our other fans, sorry it has taken me so long to blog. What can I say? We are on the ship! There is too much to do. Or not do. It is a huge ship. We can lay beside the pool, gamble in the casino, shop at the jewelry store, eat, drink, or be merry. How is one to choose?
We arrived in Civitavecchia on Monday around 12:30 and were aboard ship by 1:00. The Solstice is an enormous boat! 3,000 passengers, and half are from the US. So we have met people from Kentucky, Seattle, Santa Barbara, Texas, Wisconsin, you name it. It is much easier to speak English to everyone, but not nearly as much fun. I miss the Italian already. I did hear someone in the elevator yesterday asking for dodici (12) and I was very happy. Can’t wait to get back to Giuseppa and our Italian classes.
We had a beautiful bon voyage - Civitavecchia is a port, mostly industrial from what we have seen. The open sea is inviting. Drinks on deck and a wonderful dinner and we were off. On to our next adventure!
