By the way, If anyone ever asks you, what is the most popular fish in the ocean? Flying Fish!” They are amazing to watch at just how far they can fly (100yds+).

Today was the crew’s Tug-Of-War, with every department being represented like the paraded countries. Is is so nice to cheer them on– they work tirelessly and can not do enough for you.

The Stateroom Butlers— in heels no less. They won their first heat

All the DJs and well… not sure about these guys, but they were rock’n the gold pants.

These guys were a riot! But don’t ask me where they came from….

The first match: Housekeeping vs food services… the girls in heels crushed them!

Up on the Sky Deck with guests and crew, cheering from above
