lunch date and Lumberjack show

July 17, 2014
I had the morning port day shift. It wasn’t too bad, a few of the kids came for Just Dance time before we arrived in port, then got picked up to go ashore. One stayed and we played Lego Star Wars for the next hour. Kayleigh and I had a lunch date planned, since we sadly haven’t gotten to see much of each other in the month and a half I’ve been back, so we met at the gangway once we both got off work and changed. It was another beautiful day out!

We met up with Alana, Christine and Curtis in my usual grassy spot and they came with us to lunch. At the restaurant, we’d ordered already when Jessica and Richard, photogs, came in, and of course we invited them to join us as well. Our table was really full and we had to pull up another chair for when Bonnie finally joined us as well! It was fun, surprisingly not everyone spent the whole time on their phones, so we got to chat and hang out, just enjoying being off the ship with friends (I was solar-powered happy, so I was jumping around a lot). It was nice. Kayleigh had to get back to work, so I walked most of the way with her, then did some shopping of my own since I’d made plans with Alana to attend the lumberjack show at 3.

I found a store that had a lot of cool things, and ended up buying some earrings (more than likely I will go back for another of the 5 pairs I was looking at as well, one pair was made of blue sea glass!). Alana and I found each other and got into the show with pretty decent seats. It was another fun hanging out time. We cheered on our team-which ended up winning- and took a lot of pictures and chatted.
We’re not the greatest friends, more like close acquaintances, but we’re closer now, and it’s good to know that if I run into her and neither of us have plans, we can do anything fun together and have a good time, without it being awkward.
