Formal Night--Delayed Posting

This is a late entry into the blog. Between laptop computer problems and satellite connection issues we hadn’t gotten around to posting something from our second formal night. The second formal night at sea was February 4, 2011. The food was great and the service so far on the cruise has been truly wonderful. Here is a photo of our waiters in the Club Restaurant. They are (left to right), Aleksandar Grujk, Junior Waiter from Nis, Serbia. He has been with Princess Cruises for one year. Our Waiter is Srdjan Srzentic from Bar, Montenegro. Srdjan has been with Princess for four years. We really appreciate all that they do for us each day.



To our surprise, we were lucky enough to be the 2^nd Most Traveled Passengers onboard the World Cruise. Here is a photo showing Captain Andrea Poggi and the Captain’s Circle Hostess Sandy presenting us the Most Traveled Award and another photo showing the actual award itself.

During the evening, the Executive Chef Antonio Cortese and the Maitre D’Hotel Francisco Patricio came by our table to see how the evening was going. Both of these gentlemen do an excellent job taking care of all our dining needs.

Back On Land

We just returned from 2 weeks onboard the Sapphire Princess sailing along the Mexican Riveria.  It was good to get back out to sea and test our sea legs for the upcoming trip.   Also, it was good to see if we could keep from eating too much and exercising enough to not gain any weight.  Just 36 days until sail away from Florida.

To our surprise, the Maitre'd on the Pacific Princess will be Francisco Patricio.  We have sailed with Francisco many times and have always been impressed with how well he manages the food operations.  Here is the notice that we received from Princess Cruises regarding Francisco being on the World Cruise.
