Ok, so on to dinner!
First, for our appetizers, we both got the lobster ravioli.

They were good, but just not much of it.
Then, I got the Romaine wedge.

It was really good, and I could have eaten much more of it. I don't remember what kind of dressing was on it, but I do know I liked it.
Meg got the tomato soup.

She said it was no Campbells....it was much better, and was her favorite appetizer of the cruise.
For our entree, Meg got the caramelized scallops:

She really liked the scallops, and the asparagus, but the pearl pasta tasted like nothing. And she thought the stuff on top of the pasta tasted like grass.
I got the prime rib. It came with potato and veggies.

It was very good. Cooked medium well, not too much fat. I also asked to try the sea bass. I didn't want the whole dinner, just a piece of the fish to try.

It was ok. I had never had it, but on our cruise to Alaska last year, I tried halibut that was amazing, and I was hoping it would be similar. Not so much.
Pla took our dessert orders because poor Kruno was tied up again. Nothing looked appealing (again) which is sad cause I just love dessert. But, of course I ordered something. I got the banana foster sundae...but with NO bananas!

It was good. Vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce and whipped cream. You can't really mess that up!
Meg got chocolate ice cream. No picture though. If you've seen one dish of ice cream, you've seen them all!
Pla overheard me telling our tablemates about the magic tricks that our server Estewar had done at breakfast, so he wanted to show us his magic skills too. He was actually pretty good. We all got a few laughs trying to figure the magic tricks out.
Pla also brought out a little plate of different candies for us to try.

There were chocolate ones that tasted like fudge, but we didn't try the others. I think they were fruity with sugar on them.
We went back to our room, and got the FE gifts to hand out.

We did door hangers for the kids, and the adults got a Massachusetts postcard with some Boston Baked Beans candies.
When we were done, we went back to the room, and took a picture of our nightly towel animal:

We were packing up everything and trying to get our luggage out the door by 10:30, which is when they were coming to pick it up. They take it, and you see it again at the cruise terminal, so you need to make sure you have clothes and what you'll need for the next day.
I was trying to get things organized and I could not find my sunglasses! They are prescription, so it was kind of a big deal. Meg and I both were looking everywhere. I thought maybe they had fallen into the trash bucket and got tossed. Then, it dawned on me.....let's take another look at our towel animal, shall we?

Wow. They were right there the whole time. Duh!
We also got our pillowcase back from Guest services that the characters signed.

It came out great!
We had left the tip envelope for our room steward in the room, but sort of in a pile of papers. When we came back, I noticed that it was gone. Which meant that he had taken it from the pile. I found that a little odd. I guess he wanted to make sure he got it, but at least wait until I specifically leave it out. Oh well.
That concludes our last day on the Dream.
We had to get up fairly early, as we received tickets that had our breakfast place and time for the next morning. We had to be to the Enchanted Garden for 8:20.
Weather: it was mostly sunny, with a random rain shower, and hot
Best thing today: riding the AquaDuck, and the character meets
Worst thing today: not knowing what was going to happen with our flight the next day, and knowing it was our last day on the Dream
Stay tuned, the next day will be crazy!
