We stopped in Falmouth, Jamaica for the afternoon. We went to Chukka beach and enjoyed mass amounts of rum and sunshine. There was a shopping area right in the port so our first stop was the bar for some punch. Then we took a bus to the beach where there was another bar with tropical drinks and food to enjoy while we floated around in the gorgeous blue ocean. Jamaica was our favorite stop in the entire 7 months that we’ve been on the ship.

Manta School
More than 100 crew members volunteered their time to help
out at a school in Ecuador. Food, toys, bedding and other important donations
were made. We had to load everything from the ship onto buses and then
unload it at the school. Best workout ever. At the school, we painted the
classrooms, fixed the roof and other things that needed to be repaired, and
played with the children. It was a very hot day and the school is not air
conditioned so we were all hot messes, but it didn’t even matter because it was
really fun to be doing something for appreciative people. The kids and their families were invited onto the ship for lunch as well.

Let's Go Dancing With The Stars
The cruise line I work for recently added a “Dancing with the Stars at
Sea” show onboard several of its ships. The competition uses modified dances
from the “Dancing with the Stars” TV show. Stars from the actual show
will be on our ship this summer for a special themed cruise, but members of our
cast are the pros in the competition. We taught three 1 hour classes last
cruise (waltz, jive, cha cha). Six passengers were selected and paired with “pros”
whom which they competed with in a huge production show. One winner will be selected
from each cruise through November and then they will compete against winners
from other ships on another (free!) cruise in January. This was a huge learning
process and a lot of work, but it has been rewarding and passengers really seem
to enjoy it.
