At sea & Cozumel, Mexico

Dec. 24th
At Sea. Before dinner, we attended the World Cruise welcome reception, where Captain Blundell presented the Senior Officers of the Viking Neptune, followed by the Entertainment Team. It was a wonderful event. Some ship stats: 460 staff members, from 50 different countries. And, drum roll...101 Executive Chefs who keep us well fed and very happy!!

Arrival in Cazumel! Julie & I had 2 separate excursions: Julie went scuba diving (her 1st time) & I attended an Alebrijes art class. (And I bought a straw hat!) Christmas dinner was excellent! Julie had scallops & shrimp. I had beef wellington. My goal is to try out a different glass of wine each night. I open the wine menu, close my eyes, and point! So far, so good! In a few minutes, we'll head down to the Star Theatre for a holiday show "A Neptune Noel"!Read more
