Onboard

We got on board yesterday and spent hours exploring our ship. Travis spotted a giant chess board that is painted onto the deck with chess pieces that are about 3 feet tall (so guess what I get to do today). The ship also has a bowling alley! We have been very pleasantly surprised by the amenities since the NCL ship we cruised on in Hawaii was a little lack-luster. We ate in the Italian restaurant last night and the Chicken Parmigiana was probably the best I've ever had in my life. We have a day at sea today so we're going to hit the pool & the bowling alley. Our room is beautiful; very large for a stateroom and the balcony is nice and relaxing - which probably explains why we can't seem to get out of bed! Oops! :-)
