We hadn't had any contact with anyone in 6 days. We stopped at a bar with free wi-fi to have a drink, watch the Cowboy game and check e-mail.

It was The Sopranos Bar. They had obviously bought their shirts off of HBO's website. Pretty funny. The Cowboys lost the game to New Orleans in OT. We sent off a bunch of texts and e-mails and left after the game.

A good one of us in front of the ship!

For dinner they had a barbecue on deck by the pool.

It was a nice night.

Our towel animal of the day was a monkey!

Day 7: Christmas Eve! Oranjestad, Aruba.

It was a long walk from the ship to get out of the cruise center.

Finally we were in the city!

There were some buildings that had the Dutch influence like Curaçao.

This was a big shopping center.
