Cruise dining staff and general pics

in one of the other blogs I wrote about our wait staff. They were fantastic. They remembered our names from the first night and made the kids feel so important. These two women seemed to work day and night. When you contract on a cruise ship its for 7 months. You leave home and don't go back. They work 70 hours a week over the 7 days and I all areas of food service. Its impressive how they managed to keep a smile on whenever I saw them. I would see them at out 8pm diner service then again at the midnight buffet and then at 8am breakfast! Crazy hours. I couldn't help be curious on how they could leave home 7 months at a time. Well having your boyfriend living with you will help pass the time. They allow couples to share rooms onboard. Nice way to get away from a crummy country and cruise the western Caribbean. These two women were awesome and Jon really like the shorter of the the two you see. irina was her name and she was part of the nightly diner entertainment. She would get up on a 4 foot round serving stations and dance during the show the wait staff would perform everynight. Jon took some video of her dancing. She was very entertaining and so was Ramona from Romania. She was the head waiter in our area and was fantastic. Catering to every need during our diners. I cant so how much we enjoyed their presence on our trip. We have exchanged emails and I hope they read this blog and write to us keeping us informed.
