Around the Horn :Day 2
Day 2 sees us making a stop at Royal Caribbean's private island, CocoCay. This is also known as Little Stirrup Quay, and is a beautiful place to relax and soak up some Caribbean sun.The weather was perfect, the seas calm and the sky a brilliant blue. After a tasty breakfast in the Concierge lounge I went with my roommate Carol (a.k.a. the Queen of trivia) to the first of two Team trivia challenges, which we won. (We were not nearly as sharp in the second round in the afternoon).
Carol and I headed for the island at noon with friends Letty and Len and went for a tasty barbeque lunch. After a walkabout we headed back to the ship for afternoon trivia which we shall not discuss ! This was the first formal night of our extended cruise, and we arrived for dinner in our respective finery. The food on RCCL is as always adequate to good
We attended both of the evening shows featuring Nelson, twin sons Matthew and Gunner whose Dad was the famous teen idol Ricky Nelson. A chance meeting in the Promenade Cafe later on in the evening left us with the opportunity to chat with and get to know the Nelson boys, who are as personable and friendly as they are handsome.
We closed out the evening with a visit to the Wig and Gavel to listen to Mark B and once again provide backup !
Tomorrow : the first of many days at sea.

What be this GROG u speak about missy?
I can't believe you met Nelson! That' so cool. Their son, "Can't Live Without your Love and Affection" is one of my favorites of all time. Sounds like you're having a fabulous time!
