Honeymoon Day 4 - At Sea

Day 4 was spent entirely on our cruise ship. We we heading straight from Barcelona to Malta which takes over a day to get to.
We started off with some breakfast and then headed to the pool for some relaxation. And that is also what everyone else on the ship decided to do as well. We couldn't find any lounge chairs right next to the pool so we had to end up on a lower deck without any sun. It was fine for a little while to just read and relax in the shade while looking out over the ocean, but we really wanted to get a little sun and maybe some swimming in. So, we headed back out to the pool area to try and find any chairs we could.
As we were looking for our chairs some ladies in front of us just randomly said "asshole". Ando and I just looked at each other and had no idea what was going on. She kept talking to her friend out how some guys were assholes. It was really odd and I have no idea what happened. Anyway we finally found some chairs after this little incident. Ando and I lounged in the sun while sipping some margaritas away. We even did some talking to each other. We hadn't run out of things to say yet.
While we were sitting on the poolside deck two guys next to us were talking and one was going to go back to their room to get something and the other told him to get him about five things for him as well. He kept going on about where all these things were in the room, in differnet locations of course, and how to find them all. I don't know why he just didn't go down and get what he wanted himself. If Ando would have told me everything this guy did I would have laughed in his face and told him to go get it himself and Ando said the same thing if I would have asked him.
After sitting in the sun it was time for a quick dip in the pool. It was a little cold, but not too bad. And it was nice because they had two pools on the ship; one was the "kids" pool and the other was for adults only. When we were finished swimming we needed to dry off a little so we laid in the sun with some more adult beverages.
By this point it was time to get ready for dinner. We headed back to our room to be greeted by a nice little rabbit towel. Sorry, we didn't take a picture of our first towel animal, but there will be some later on. In case you don't know you get a new animal sitting on your bed each night from your room attendants. I guess it's a cruise thing.

Since we weren't very hungry at this point, we did eat lunch and snacks I just didn't write about it, while lounging, we sat out on the back deck with some beer and just hung out. We finally made it to dinner, but nothing interesting happened this time. It was actually pretty empty by the time we made it to dinner. And then we were off to bed to get ready for Malta the next day.

Ando and I lounged the day away; we won't have to take advantage of any lounging we can get in
