The dress that I’m wearing for New Year’s is the perfect travel dress. It doesn’t wrinkle. It’s a Chico’s petite maxi dress that you can dress up or down. It’s comfortable and flattering.

I’ve decided to stay up until midnight Illinois time, which is an hour earlier than our current ship’s time. I’m going to skip the shore excursion.

Apparently sequins and lamé are in. Lots of women wearing sparkly outfits.

They didn’t have a countdown for Central Time, but I drank my champagne (I forgot how much I like champagne) and silently toasted the New Year. I went looking for food, but the station wasn’t open. I’m not staying up until midnight ship’s time. Anyway, Happy New Year!

I went and got something to eat, so I did stay up until midnight ship’s time. Lots of people wishing each other Happy New Year.

One flute of champagne got me pretty wasted, so I’m going to sleep now. And I’m not setting an alarm.

Woke up at 8 AM. The hot water is finally back on in the shower. Oh frabjous day!

I like the looks of Cabo San Lucas. I’ll put it on my list (which keeps growing, not shrinking!)

My feet are very puffy. I'll lie down with them up. Good thing that I have a doctor's appointment when I get back.

Had lunch (Caesar salad and an eggnog soft-serve). Now I’m hanging out until my manicure. The captain announced that we'll be heading back to San Diego, which I knew. We'll have one more day at sea. We turn the clocks back tonight.

Had my manicure done. Waited for my nails to dry. Had dinner. I had some fatty duck that I didn’t like and some mushroom soup that was really good.

I went to check out the shops because there is a nice bag in the rooms that says "Holland America," and it would be great for my music for choir. They had only large canvas bags, which is not what I'm looking for.

It's still early, but I think that I'll post. I start yawning at dinner time. It must be the sea air.
