All Aboard

We got a "Grab" ride to the port. In- processing was pretty straightforward, then on to the ship- NCL SKY.

I unpacked- not as much storage space as we've had in the past, but I'm bringing less stuff - so that helps. Once I located and used the magnetic hooks, I felt organized.

We met Darla and Rick, Judy and Glenn and were introduced to Carol and Scott, for dinner in the Crossings restaurant. It was so good to be together again for more adventures. We got underway during dinner. (W had flounder - I had grilled shrimp on pasta).
