Day 12 – Sea Day and Palo Dinner
Sea Day! Woo hoo!! I totally said that in the same voice as the camel that says “Huuuummmp Dayyyy!!” on the commercial.
It’s funny because the ports are obviously the highlight of this cruise, but every time a sea day comes up it’s a bit of a relief! Sleeping in and nothing planned! That’s a good day!
It was definitely what Mom needed. A day to rejuvenate.
I slept until 9! 9! Stephen brought me a coke after running. He’s so thoughtful.
We ate at Topsiders today.
The ship was empty! Everyone was sleeping in today it seemed. I think I took these same pictures every day?
Ally woke up and wandered the ship with us. Then we stopped in for some princess face time!
Alice was out in the wild!
Everyone met us at Parrot Cay for lunch. Except Chase who was still sleeping!
After lunch we went and woke him up.
I uploaded some pictures off my camera. Every day when I uploaded, I put the pictures in folder labeled “Med Cruise Day 1”,”Med Cruise Day 2”, etc. Today when I hit Day 12, I realized Day 12 on a vacation is a bit excessive. In a good way.
We finally went to see Monsters University this afternoon. It was super cute!
After that, we went to deliver our Fish Extender gifts. There were 57 rooms on it! Crazy! We went back to the room after that and caught some Wimbledon while we relaxed.
Dinner tonight was at Palo! Woo hoo!
I was a little worried about what Chase would eat at Palo dinner. The menu is wonderful for those of us who eat normal food (!), but for Chase it may be a challenge. He decided to go with us though.
Ally decided to go to dinner by herself. I was shocked! I thought she would eat in the room or on deck 4.
Nope! It was pirate night and she was going. She said she was treated like royalty. She even took selfies alone at dinner!
So that was her dinner. Now for ours!! Private room! Score!
Our server got creative when he took this shot for us:
I could just eat the bread all night:
Mom is here! Yay!
It’s bil!
Yep. I’m talking about you.
In case you forgot where we were:
This salad is wayyyy to fru –fru for me. I’m an iceberg lettuce type of girl. If I get crazy, I’ll get some Romaine. I do not want my salad to look like someone gathered up the roughage in their backyard!
We must cleanse our palate:
Try to guess what I had? Just try. I had the filet mignon! I know you can’t believe it.
Chase went crazy with pasta and shrimp specially made for him!
Stephen had fish. Silly Stephen.
Now it was time for dessert! Our server brought us extra:
And behold – the best dessert onboard. The soufflé. It’s to die for. I could eat it with every meal. I certainly shouldn’t, but I could!
Tonight’s show was Once Upon a Song which is only performed on long cruises. It’s a group of 5-6 men and women performing Disney songs. I loved it last time I saw it, I loved it this time.
We went upstairs for fireworks and the pirate party after that! Pirate par-tay!!
Minnie is getting her groove on:
Be careful, Mickey!
Be careful, but turn my way!
Mickey saved the day, and to celebrate? Fireworks of course!
We got a little bit of dessert off the pirate buffet despite being stuffed from dinner. It’s an ice pirate!
Turkey leg anyone?
Somehow I got pictures of fruit and turkey legs, but no dessert! Fail.
Chase went to listen to the live music in the lounge after that and the rest of us went to bed!
It’s our last port day tomorrow and we had something super fun planned!
