Here's what my family believes in: There is no vacation like a cruise vacation. This spring, we had the utmost pleasure of cruising once again with Princess Cruises. If you're like me, and your idea of a perfect vacation consists of scenic views, luxurious facilities, golden sun and a never-ending flow of gourmet cuisines, my contented soul recommends a cruise with Princess. And...feast thy eyes. With round the clock meals available, we woke up to freshly baked pastry and juice delivered to our cabin, whisked ourselves to mouthwatering breakfast buffet, put on our bathing suits and grabbed a gourmet burger, shroom pizza and Budweiser by the pool, made high tea pit stops for mid-day treats, indulged in sumptuous four course fine dining, and every night, popped by the dessert bar to satisfy our mid-night sinful cravings. Shrimp cocktails, grilled beef filet medallions, cognac flamed crawfish, baked Alaska? Sì grazie! On the off chance that you find me not eating, i'm at the pool. Sapphire Princess has an array of pool options (like everything else). The Calypso pool and reef, the Sanctuary, the Neptune, the Oasis hot tubs- take your pick. My favourite has always been the terrace pool at the stern. With one hand stuffing my face with burning hot fries, and the other holding a pina colada, I spend my afternoons gazing into the sea horizon and the trail of waves our ship route creates. Synchronously, the lullaby of wave crashes strums in the background. The cruise also hits a sweet spot of mine as its daily fine dining gives me plenty of excuse to dress up to the nines. Dramatically embellished dresses, evening gowns, sharp pantsuits- roll 'em out! Have an event or an occasion that you need a stunning one-timer for? Check out Rent A Dress KL for gorgeous evening and party wear, especially the swanky #partyinRAD line.
Why do stunning dresses bring so much joy to my life? Champagne waterfall with the captain. We spent several nights in the piazza as they have back to back jazz performances and..I lie. The dessert bar is in the piazza. Here's a picture of my bestie: Playsuit by FREYJA Dress by Elise Ryan Surprisingly, we managed to do quite a bit of stuff with whatever little free time we had left. Art auctions (I won three paintings 'cause my raffle tickets were lucky like that!), golf, the skybar, cooking demonstrations, kitchen tour, casino-roaming, gym, taboo in the library, shopping, a carnival (they had cotton candy!) and my all time winner- Movie under the stars. There's something really precious about watching a blockbuster on a gigantic screen on the upper deck. When you're in the middle of the ocean surrounded by water reflections from the pool, stars are twinkling in the otherwise pitch black sky, waves crashing and you've burito-ed yourself in a snuggly blanket with whipping hair against the sea breeze- life gets pretty good sometimes. With popcorn and fries, of course. Sapphire Princess did an Asian voyage, we departed from Singapore and called at the ports of Koh Samui, Laem Chabang, and Phu My. We got our Thai iced tea and coconut ice cream fix! We captured this on the top deck at one fine 7.20am, and boy am I glad we dragged our zombie selves out of bed that morning. Bracing the unrelenting breeze, we watched as the horizon swallowed the somber blackness and reintroduced its pastel splotches. With a tinge of salt in the air, all that lingered with me was: "And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into you." I hope you're having as lovely a spring break as I am! x,
Annabelle.
