Day at Sea and Malta

The first full day on the cruise ship was spent at sea. So we didn't stop anywhere. Jason and I relaxed and explored the ship. We both got massages at the spa and then took a nap!! We had a yummy dinner at the Italian resteraunt well Jason had two, he asked the waiter which was better of the two things he wanted to try and the waiter brought him both. He liked both though and couldn't pick a favorite.

These pictures give you a little perspective of how big the ship was. All I know is we got our excercise going anywhere on the ship.





This is our state room. We were lucky enough to have a room with a balcony, it was cool to sit out and watch the ocean and see what we were passing. I was worried about motion sickness, but we only one night (the last night) that it got a little rocky (20 ft waves can do that) the rest of the trip was smooth sailing. (The towel monkey was left from the guy taking care of our room, he left us a new animal each night)





Our first port was Malta (It is an island below Sicily). It is known for it's ancient ruins, the oldest in the entire world. The tour guide we had this day was very boring and monotone, but he was knowledgable. We learned a lot, just not very exciting. He did take us to a little seaside village that was cool, they had an outside shopping area and we got some cool tablecloths for our new house and gifts for the kids.
