Well dear friends, the boat IS as big as they say. Although I'm told I'm on a "smaller" boat...I'm sure some of you already know that, but it was news to me! So the first day was fairly overwhelming. Going to safety meetings, coordinating with the musical director, and sitting in on my first gigs on the boat.
The band's pretty cool. We all get along pretty well. It's a trumpet, trombone, sax, guitar, bass & drums. One little happy family!
I had my first time playing a "click" show last night--was interesting to say the least. Playing with the click in one ear, while trying to stay in tune with the recording that's helping to double and make it sound like a fuller orchestra. Crazy stuff....
We just ported in Cozumel today. While I have port manning duty(I have to stay on the boat to help "man" it while at port) my first time out, I'll catch Cozumel in person next week. I can't say I've seen water so blue like this. Beats LA's beaches, and well, Vegas has no beach...I did see water like this when I was 9, in the Bahamas for a week. But nothing until now...
And oh, are people stupid drunk. I had 4 drunk guys in an elevator hitting on me at once. Luckily I only had to travel 3 floors. Yeeeesh!
