How are things going do far? It is still a bit cold here in the Old Pueblo and we may get a few raindrops. Smile!
Well, let's begin posting about our cruise to the Mexican Rivera.
30 Nov
We left home at 7:15am on a flight to LAX. We gathered up our luggage and we made our way to the Norwegian representative who was waiting on us.
We checked in with her and then we hit up Starbucks for some coffee while we waited for our shuttle bus to arrive to take us to the port.
We arrived at the port and we had to stand in line for about two hours along with everyone else for the process to board the Star. Once we went through customs we boarded and we grabbed a light lunch and a glass of vino. After lunch we explored the ship.
While we were exploring Bobby met a fellow traveler named "Gunther".Yes he is German and his accent was very strong. I was going to try out my German but I decided not to, smile! Bobby and "Gunther" struck up a friendship immediately. Elise and I thought that was great. They made plans to meet for dinner. "Gunther" is about Bobby's age. We continued to explore the ship until it was announced that the cabins were available.
We had a suite with a balcony. It is great. Elise and I are spoiled now and we will only get a suite from now on. We had a few Jack and Coke's while we were in our suite. We left the room and we hit up one of the many bars on board. We were joined by "Gunther" and we had a couple of Long Island Iced Tea's. Man they were good and strong. WooHoo!
We parted from Bobby and Gunther. We went to the casino and we had loads of fun (but we didn't win). Then at around 8:15pm we went to the buffet for dinner. It was very good and we ate way too much. We returned to our suite and we were ready for bed because it has been a very long day.
Bobby dropped in to say that he and Gunther were going to walk around the deck and that he would be in later. A very good start to our cruise. Tomorrow will be a sea day that should be fun.
