After a stressful (and bloody) start to our cruise, I am pleased to report that we are back on track - a lovely dinner with great waitstaff, good wine (for one of us, anyway), a great show on the Mainstage, and a successful turn on the slots (up $9!!).
If the cruise industry has a theme song, it's not The Love Boat (exciting and new!) as you might expect. Rather, it's got to be Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline. I am sure that every cruise we have been on has had at least one entertainer who gets the crowd waving arms (touchin' me, touchin' you), and belting out Sweet Caroline (bah, bah, bah) at full voice.
I confess: I'm one of that crowd.
There is something about that enthusiasm that really works for me. People are just letting loose, having a great time. From time to time, we all need to just let go and enjoy the moment. Good times never seemed so good.
