First things first: I had to get up at 4am today, UGH! As most of you know, I am not a morning person so that wasn’t quite pleasant but, we have to do what we have to do! Got to the airport, did the whole song and dance there, and then my flight to Dallas wasn’t too bad at all. I dozed in an out and listened to my iPod, there was also a magazine in front of me that had something about taking a trip “Down Under” on it, and it made me smile. I will post a picture of that that I took on my iPod sometime soon.
Once I got to Dallas I found my gate, found breakfast, and sat at a cyber lounge with my computer plugged in and watched some stuff on there to keep myself entertained. I ate breakfast at my gate, though, and there were mostly a lot of couples waiting, which makes sense.
The flight to Hawaii wasn’t too bad except for the fact that I was in the middle of a middle row, ergo had very little space to wiggle without bothering the guys next to me. In my defense though, they were each taking up the arm rests that were next to me so whenever they happened to move their arms I planted my arm there and took my rightful ownership of said armrest. So, hah. :P
Flying into the islands would have been better with a window seat but it was still gorgeous!! And being here is so great, I just can’t decide what I want to do with my little bit of free time!
Here's part of Waikiki Beach and the Pacific Ocean! |
This afternoon I strolled around the beach and then I went to dinner. Royal Caribbean gave me meal vouchers for breakfast, lunch and dinner for two days but they only apply to the hotel’s restaurant which happens to be a Chinese buffet kind of place. It wasn’t too bad actually!
Then a girl joined me in my hotel room, her name is Anna, she’s from the Philippines. She’s been working for RCCL for 8 years so she already gave me a lot of great tips and advice. I’m so happy I already have a friend! She’s a supervisor in the Casino so she’s in the Entertainment division as well, just a different department. She’s been dating a guy for 6 years that she met on RCCL, he’s from Trinidad and they go to their ships together and share a cabin. He is flying in tomorrow (Monday the 26th) and will be joining the Radiance as well. Anna seems really nice, so, I hope that’s a good sign for the future!
Also, here's a link to my ship's website (kind of) The Radiance of the Seas and if you go to the right hand side where it says "Find a Cruise" you can put that ship in the ship category and hit search and see where I'll be whenever! Just make sure you're looking at the right year, I've done that a few times.
Not sure what I am going to do tomorrow, but, it’s off to bed for me now. It’s 10:07pm here, but, my body thinks it’s 4:07am on Monday and I’ve been up since 4:00am on Sunday, so ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! Aloha, my loves!
