Curacao

April 1, 2013: Curacao
I kind of feel like today was completely unproductive. I wish I could have just started it all over and maybe have things go right, or at least go... This morning, I was in the loft for the morning shift, and none of them showed up. At 11:30, Chrissy came to tell me that we had to have a Club HAL meeting with the Event Manager to talk about the ‘new’ rules. They’re basically the same rules that are common sense for working with children. It took an hour and we only went over the health and sanitization information. The rest of it wasn’t on the computer so we’re going over it later, so Michelle and I went to lunch.

After lunch, the two of us went to the bow to watch us dock. It was pretty cool, but really windy. Michelle couldn’t get off today sine she stll hasn’t finished her new-crew card to get her ID. I found out that the Celebrity Eclipse couldn’t dock in Curacao because the wind was too strong. I was supposed to meet Blake (from the Maasdam, now works on that ship) and go to the beach, get some internet and catch up. When I found out they weren’t here, I was at a loss about what to do since I’d told everyone I had plans already. I tried calling Kayleigh, but she didn’t answer. So, I decided to just venture out on my own (again. It’s not fun here really unless you’re with friends). On my way out, I met Matan who was going out for internet so I joined him. When we got to the café, I could connect to the wireless network, but not the internet. I stayed as Matan did stuff online for a while, then he let me use his computer to check my emails really quickly before we went back to the ship. I attempted to nap until dinner, then hung out with Charlotte in the library until work.

The teens were tired (not a surprise at all this week), so we just put in a movie to start. Not a fan of that movie at all, it’s called “Knowing” and it’s pretty creepy. Luckily, the pool party was happening and they all like to eat so we went down to the Lido to get some food. I got coerced into doing the line dances again (not too bad this week now that I dragged my teens to dance as well. After that, we went back upstairs and played card games until they all went to bed.
