Day 8 - Coco Cay

Coco Cay, Royal's private island in the Bahamas has been very successful for them and they have several others in the works around the world. I elect to stay on the ship, as does everyone else in the family. Scott and his two kids are sick. The temperature is in the low 70's and the wind is blowing at about 20 MPH. Not a very nice day at Coco Cay.

The Allure of the Seas is docked beside us. 12,000 passengers on shore is another reason to remain on board.

Despite the 78 pinnacle and 900 diamond and diamond plus passengers, the lounge was never crowded and we often gathered there after dinner. My son in law, Steve, managed to hide the 100 ducks I brought. He also had brought a special duck from Kevin's son that he gave to Dan our head waiter.

Everything is packed before dinner. I have a 7:30 am departure time usually one of the first passengers to disembark after those that carry all their own luggage.

Despite the cool weather here, it has been much cooler in Florida this past week, with freeze warnings issued for the northern counties.

The alarm is set to ensure an early awakening. Tomorrow it is back to reality.
