Bette, I missed it as well for the New Years Eve countdown. That "black and white" corset top/thing I brought to wear for what I thought was a formal night, hey it was just too tight! I went back to my cabin, turned on the TV, got into my jammies, and watched the ball drop with the rest of America! Loved watching the photos of the rest of them on deck dancing away! We loved it when you finally enjoyed us "downstairs" in the VL in that blue sparkel dress on a later formal night!
