Tonight was the gala Black & White Ball, during which
all the ship’s officers danced with the guests. We had dinner with our friends
from the World Cruise – Chicagoans Bob and Toya – where we enjoyed the first of
our Chilean wines, as well as a bottle of champagne.
Our cruise director – a delightful Australian woman named
Tam – is an excellent singer who performed with our equally excellent
Philippine band. Speaking of Tam, her husband and 3-year-old daughter are
aboard. We have dubbed her daughter “Little Miss Prinsendam.” She is a delight
and brings smiles to everyone’s faces where ever she goes.
Also worthy of mention are the three (so far) special wine dinners – six-course meals with paired wines – we have attended. The first was
a special Cellar Master dinner for which our cellar master, Neil, chose both
the menu as well as the wines. The second was a Peruvian dinner with wines, and
most recently a Pinnacle Chef’s dinner which featured the most delicious
dessert I have ever tasted. On the 25th we are looking forward to a
Chilean dinner with wines.
