Zumba, salsa, and more!

*Quick note- The internet has been pretty bad the past few days, which may have been related to the storm we hit, (14 foot waves!) so I apologize for my posts coming all at once.

I’m still doing so many activities on the ship and trying new things all the time.  In the past few days I’ve done Zumba, salsa dance, spiritual dance, yoga, and aerobics, and that’s just in the last few days.  It was my first time trying Zumba and I really liked it, even though I was off on a lot of the steps.  I felt the same way about salsa dancing, except that I had a partner.  Luckily I think it was his first time doing salsa as well.  I also want to try swing dancing and ballroom dancing… I figure I might as well try everything while I am here!

I was supposed to have my first intramural volleyball game the other night but because of the strong winds the ball flew off the ship within the first few minutes.  Apparently the people playing before us lost their ball as well.  Although the area is netted, there are still spots that the ball can bounce under and the wind can blow it overboard.  Hopefully next time the weather will be better.

It’s good I’m being so active because I’m eating the biggest meals.  I actually enjoy the food on the ship a lot more than I thought I would.  They have lots of healthy options (fruits, veggies, fish, etc.) but also desserts, which I eat at every meal.  The one thing I really miss is pizza.  They have it at the pool bar but you have to pay extra, whereas the dining hall meals are included.  I doubt it would even compare to Peace a Pizza or Pizza Fusion, my go-to pizza places at school and at home.  Regardless, I will be having sushi (my other favorite food) very soon in Japan so I can survive without my American pizza.
