Message in a bottle #3

MS MARINA
Rome (Civitavecchia), Italy
DAY 7
11:12pm

 

One more show down! We have one left in 2 days. And another to rehearse, but we're not performing it this cruise. And then perfect the other ones...

Phew!

 

Barcelona, Spain
DAY 12
10:32pm

 

We're in Barcelona, but haven't got off the ship in a few days due to the load of work.

Tomorrow is embarkation day. Saying goodbye to guests that are going home and/or greeting the new ones. 

We still have a hard core rehearsal schedule since we were doing install and adding up some duties and the trainings...

We're almost done with the trainings, we know the shows (just have to make sure we remember them well... Some of it is still kinda fresh)

 

10:46 PM

Got my schedule. Busy from 10:45am to after my show around 11pm. Quite ridiculous.


DAY 13
4:40 PM

 

I have a 15min break. I've been shadowing embark and check-in assist at the terminal an at the gangway.

Then we have a drill, then we sail away from Barcelona (which I haven't seen) so we're gonna go socialize for a while. Then rehearsal for the tonight's show...

 

10:32 PM

It's super rocky tonight. It feels funny.

Like you could literally do line dancing except not on purpose, just because the boat is rocking back and forth.

Look, the drill yesterday when people got on board

(Like I said on Skype, my muster station is the theater)

My schedule is getting better. I might even be able to get off in Valencia tomorrow afternoon for an hour or 2. 

I was proud of myself today... I was able to ask for a glass of water in Spanish while I was working at the terminal.
