At Sea (Thursday April 15)

For some reason, I woke up at 7:00 this morning. I finished my book, then unpacked my luggage. After that, my grandparents were awake, so I went up to the buffet and got some fruit, then went to the internet cafe, then the library. After that, I went back to the stateroom, and my grandparents and I went to a "Special Breakfast" for people that were in a suite. I had Brioche French Toast that was amazing! After that, we set up my stateroom card with my credit card, and I got a soda pass.

Right now, it is noon on the high seas. At 1:30, I am going to go to one of the FOUR swimming pools to play water volleyball. Tonight is a formal dinner night on the cruise, so I get to dress up.

Tomorrow, we are going to be in Singapore. I will post about it later!

Bangkok (Wednesday April 14)

We got settled in our hotel room at about 2:30, and I promptly fell asleep. Amazingly, I didn't sleep forever. I got maybe 5 hours of sleep. At about 8 AM, we went to get breakfast. The food they had was amazing. My grandma and I got pictures. Our hotel was directly on the river. After that, we waited around 'till 11 and we went on a bus to get to Laem Chabang, where we would board the cruise. After a tiring 2 hour drive with no air conditioning (and Thailand is EXTREMELEY HUMID), we got there.

We had a confusing check in, but we finally got on the ship.

Two Fridays ago, we got upgraded to a full suite on the ship. It was much larger then the mini-suite. I'm going to post something about the amenities provided later.

So, we got somewhat settled. After that, my grandma and I went down to the library (of course), and I did the paperback book exchange and got a book I have been wanting to read (yay!). We checked out the teen club, and amazingly, there are 5 other teens onboard, but only one other registered last time I saw.

We had a tasty dinner after that. I had beef medallions (Yum!). After that, I set my grandma up on the internet and went to bed. I was exausted.

Thursday is next!)
