Here are two shots of the Magic that I got for you on Saturday evening as the Magic was leaving the port. It's a shame the ship left so late, or I might have been able to get better photos. The second photo is a bit blurry, because I was shivering from the cold weather, as I took the photo. LOL!!!

I trust you are all having a MAGICal time aboard ship!!!

Really beautiful photos, Andy! I love the night pictures of the ship. Gorgeous.

Maria -- Sounds like you're really taking advantage of the onboard activities! That is really wonderful!

We arrived in St Maaten as planned.It was rocky again last night.There were some people sick in the hall,but we are okay!It hasn't really bothered us that much.Thank goodness.We had a great time in St Maarten today.We took the 2 flags under or something like that with Disney.We truly enjoyed it.They showed us both the Dutch and the French side,and we had 45 minutes to go shopping in Marigot.We then got back,and we walked over to the shops close to the ship.Guavaberry Emporium was great,Del Sol is pretty much about the same as the other ones that we have been to both in Nassau and St Augustine(It is a cool store),and then we ended up at the Diamond Casino.I won 10 dollars on a 1 cent machine!WHOPPEE<G>!Tonight,it is Pirate Night.

The weather has been great today.It is probably in the 80s and humid.We did get some rain early afternoon.Now,it is just cloudy.We have been lucky as this is the only rain we have gotten since we left.

Off for some ice cream at scoops!

My last (& first cruise) was glass smooth every day. When you say rocky what are we talking about?

How big are the waves?
Can you still drink??
How many get sick

And whatever else

There was one person sick at our table last night,and children sick in the hall.The crew members were even saying it was rocky.I guess it all depends on how much someone can take!

Hey, Maria....a favor to ask of you!

Will you ask the servers in Lumieres how to make the Aqua Marina drink? We had it the last evening of our western Turkey Day Gang Cruise and it was so smooth! (...had lap rotation).

Thanks ever so much! It is great hearing that you are having a super cruise! Enjoy the rest!

We are having a great time.Seas are calm tonight,and we were last night.St Maarten was great as well as St Thomas.The pirate party is something not to be missed.The fireworks were EXCELLENT!The food was good too last night.Tonight,we have a small world menu.We did Coral World on our own today,and it was great.The taxi ride there was 16 dollars in a car,and in a van on the way back it was 14.These rates are for two people.The shopping mall right by port has a lot to offer.Paradise Point Tram is a must see.The view from up there is SPECTACULAR!It was 16 dollars a person round trip.Their famous drink was great.If you like Kahlua and coffee liquour,you will like it.Next time,I will get a pina colada.We had a power outage last night,and we didn't get to leave St Maaten till around 9,but today all is fine.We are at sea right now heading to Castaway Cay which we won't be arriving there till Friday!Off to get ready for dinner!

Have been enjoying your reports from the Magic... please bring it back safely as we sail on Saturday!! Really looking forward to it! One question.. have there been any special pins released? I'm a big pin collector and was hoping for a special Christmas pin or an Artist/Captains choice. Have you seen any or heard mention? Thanks! Have a great cruise and hurry back!!

Maria,

In the Cove Cafe, is "Joval" working your cruise? If so.... HUGE favor!

Please tell him "Mrs. Holly" is coming back on the 2/26/05 Western and wants to know if he'll be there. If he's NOT going to be there he needs to leave his "black magic martini" recipe so it'll be available!

Maria.... you must try this! But no driving home!
