the emerald princess

So, I’m finally on board my final home for the next six month – the Emerald Princess- doing seven day cruising in the eastern carribean.

I’m loving life on board (although I miss my fabulous friends from the sapphire) and starting to get used to the extremely long hours.
It’s only my third night on board, but I feel like I’ve been here for aaages. I have a great team of cruise staff to work with and a whole lot of crazy and super-excitable passengers to play with.
Days on board are pretty frenetic. This morning I was up early getting my laminex (id card) made up, then I was off to the library until 12 (where I wrote trivia questions), had a quick break, ran to pool games, (where I jumped in to secure victory for the mighty sharks), and then ceramics for 2 hours (where i got smashed by a million passengers wanting to paint ceramic fish) and then back to the library. After that, it was formal evening / 80’s –where there was trivia, gameshows, drinking, game shows, drinking. More drinking.
I’m actually a bit sick – a cold has struck me down 
Hope I get better soon!
