Day 6 At Sea

Today was a wonderful Christmas Eve….  The weather was just about perfect except for the wind gust that caused me to lose my yellow Aruba hat, bummer.  I walked around a took a few shots of the Nieuw Amsterdam so you could see a little bit of this magnificent ship.  Of course any ship is a reflection of the staff and the Nieuw Amsterdam has an excellent staff & crew.  Unlike…..  Anyway, the day was a lovely start of a fabulous day.  This evening was simply wonderful….  I started with going to see “Cantare” in The Showroom at Sea.  It was a fantastic performance…  Then I rushed off to the Pinnacle Grill where I had a very relaxed and enjoyable dinner with Captain Van Zaane & his lovely wife, Apollonia.  The dinner and conversation was delightful.  (We missed you Allan & Sandra).  Then it was off to the Sounds of Christmas concert presented by the crew members and their International Christmas Choir. The Captain was kind enough to ask me to join him & Apollonia in their private box for the show.  The crew put on a fabulous performance!  This was without a doubt the best Christmas eve I have ever spent on a ship.  After the show it was off to do the blog before heading back out again…  Merry Christmas to all my friends & family……
