This involves 4 days at sea in May on Voyager from Ft.Lauderdale.
Are there any activities over and above what we usually have on a regular cruise ?
This will be our 5th. Voyager and a 1st. 'repositioning 'cruise.
Anyone else booked this Apr. 30th. sailing ?

Neville, if you search for TAP posts, you will come up with some daily life posts from those who were on the crossing. Here is one from Andi: For you Crossers and would be transatlantic partiers...here is a typical first day...
Beginners or intermediate bridge lessons
lectures
Lots of exercise classes
trivia
Noontime game show (TABOO)
movies
afternoon tea (strawberry theme)
afternoon trivia
musicians everywhere
bingo
I have been surprised just how warm it is out here in the Atlantic..the Captain said it would be about 81 degrees average. It is pool and outside weather, so you can use your balcony or pool deck comfortably. That's something I was not sure about before we came.
Folks' daytime attire is comfortable and the ship isn't cold, so shorts are fine for daytime wear.
Highlights of yesterday...
1) dealing with ONE person winning three of the four bingo games.
2) a great dinner with some LCTers and the staff captain....did I say lobsta? or Beef Wellington? yum
3) Meeting new folks... Yallcruise for dinner, Carolyn and Donald...Sandra and Malcolm, Wendy and Frank from LCT
4) Other passengers on this ship are ever so nice and friendly
5)Learning how to lose at Pooch with grace
6) Getting to know LCTers like Betty, Tina, Tonya and John, lynn better...
It's been so busy on this ship, I've only made it through 20 pages in my book....
Lunch yesterday was a Fish Barbeque and last night, the Captain's Dinner.
Even with the all inclusive, you still get your two bottles in the cabin...food is great...service is great. And here is another: Tap posts
Karen
Live long and prosper

Neville, thanks for asking the question and Karen thanks for linking to those posts. I read them at the time but it seems like it was a long time ago. rereading them is making my anticipation for CROSS even higher!!
Neville, only 4 sea days crossing for you? We have 8!!
