THRIVING THURSDAY–KEEPING FIT

 

On any cruise one must be careful bot to gain any weight.  This hard to accomplish as it is possible to eat 15 meals a day if you wanted to.  One of our ways of being able to eat dessert and enjoy the wonderful food on the ship has been our dancing.  We even won the twist competition.

We have several excellent places to dance.  One place is a small dance floor in the Ocean Bar.  We dance to a group called “The Neptunes”.  Here we do most of our ballroom sets.

The other venue is the Crow’s Nest. Here we dance rock and roll to “Jenny and The Halcats”.

We also had the pleasure of a Tango evening with the “Adagio String” Quartet. D H got the nickname “Mr. Tango”.

To help us with our dancing with had 2 fabulous teachers, Allison and Terry who started on the basics of Rhumba, Cha Cha, Waltz, Tango and Swing.

I don’t know if we have kept the pounds off but we are thriving and we keep on dancing.
