This is my blog to document my travels over the next five months while I work on the Norwegian Cruise ship, the Pearl. We will be cruising Alaska, British Columbia and Seattle. The previous entries told of my trip three years ago around the Ionian and Aegean Seas, visiting Italy, Greece, and Turkey along the way! Stay tuned for lots of stories and pictures of my adventure!

Day 54 – June 22, 2010 – Laundry training, vodka trials, Bistro Brunch, too windy for Santorini?

Well today was quite an interesting day… Mariya and I did show laundry, which was great to have an extra set of hands to do! We also got word that in order for us to get the vodka we’ve desperately needed to clean the costumes, we had to now find a couple extra spray bottles and mix the water/vodka solution in the finance office before taking it to the dressing room. As insane as this sounds, everything’s got to go through a procedure…the annoying part of it all is that it’s taken them two weeks to figure out what the procedure should be. So now, as soon as the vodka has arrived in the finance office, we’ll get a call to go down and get it. Meanwhile….the stinky costumes are growing new dancers inside them… LOL



After dealing with the work drama (isn’t it funny how those teeny tiny things are the most drama that’s involved? I love it!), Eric and Pieter got the wild idea to make a reservation for the Bistro Brunch, which is usually just on Fridays, but also today since we’re at sea during brunch! The three of us had a lovely meal there and enjoyed the jazz music, while we planned out the rest of our week running around like the 3 Muskateers.

We also got word around noontime that the seas are way too rough and there is too much wind for us to anchor in Santorini’s harbor today. We all anxiously awaited to see what the alternate plans would be, but they just made it a sea day unfortunately :( And a rough one at that!
