Caribbean Cruise - Day 8 (Part 2)

Today was Karen's 30th birthday.  Craig and Karen had gone ziplining while we were off on our exploration of the rainforest, but we got together for the birthday dinner.  As it happened, the cruise's fanciest restaurant was transforming itself into Le Cirque Restaurant for one evening during our 10 day cruise, and it coincided with Karen's birthday.  ( Le Cirque is a famous New York City restaurant.) so the four of us dined in style to mark her special day, then went out to an evening concert of blues music in the Vista Lounge.

Before dinner in the Ocean Bar where someone had given Karen a bottle of champagne.
