The lovely thing about going on a cruise with a group of people is that people can easily pursue their own interests while everyone still spends time together. Early on we fell into a very nice routine. Our day looked like this: we'd meet for breakfast then we would all go off and do, such as ship sponsored shore excursions or just swimming off the platform at the stern. At breakfast we would discuss lunch times, or there was a sandwich counter for a less formal lunch. This is the option I chose most days. Afternoon was free time again. Around four or five in the evening we would shower and change and go up to the aft deck for a before dinner drink, to watch the sunset, and also watch departure to the next port.  Then on to dinner immediately followed by bedtime for Odin and sometimes others!

Odin was a champ through all of this. A couple of nights he stayed in the room watching a movie and just resting. But mostly he was with us, enjoying outrageous beverages (one night he had three cherries and three straws!).

Our hangout spot was just above the pool deck.
