~~Tuesday, April 13: At Sea~~

Today is the second day at sea for our 14-day cruise to Hawaii, RT from San Pedro (Los Angeles), and the seas are finally relatively flat with large swells and the skies are only partly clouded. Yesterday saw rather rough seas with considerable sea motion, due to the storms now moving onshore in California. The strong winds were primarily the reason for our bumpy ride but now all seems to have settled down.

Balcony

Cabin BB

Being the very last balcony stateroom on the starboard side of Caribe Deck, I was surprised with the sea motion caused by the frequently high winds during our cruise; the motion was side-to-side, like a airliner "fish-tailing." The vertical "pitch" was not noticeable, nor was there much "roll" - even though we were on Deck 10; just this "side-to-side" motion. Strange!

Being on the Caribe Deck, our balcony was DOUBLE sized, being above the Dolphin Deck 9 or Mini-suites. Unfortunately, the strong winds prevented much of our use of the balcony during our days at sea.

Otherwise, there is plenty of closet space, plenty of clothes hangers, plenty of drawer and shelf space. The bath tubs in the mini-suites are very nice, and their absence in regular balcony staterooms was noted.
