Day 9 - Part 2 - "Bored (**)"
After relaxing a bit, I suggested that Kira try the club again as there was a fun activity going on and she agreed to try it again.
This gave Rob and I a chance to have a nice, quiet, relaxing lunch at Royal Court.
I did want to try RC at least once for lunch and Rob enjoys the variety so it was perfect.
He enjoyed two appetizers...
And some soup
Yup, he ate ALL of that
I played around on the Wave Phone a bit while he ate his three courses
and found a text from the people who occupied our cabin on the previous cruise that made me laugh...
I seriously don't know how one could possibly be bored on a
Disney cruise with the bazillion things you can do
I had me the burger! Which was quite delish but the fries were NOT edible! Gross! They were hard and cold like they had been sitting there for HOURS!!!
The one thing I hate about going for a sit-down lunch on the ship is that it is all a little too fancy schmancy for me, ya know? For example, the ketchup is not sitting there on the table like most restaurants, you have to ask for it. And then when you do, they bring this little teeny tiny bowl of it, on a separate plate with a doily. Seriously? I'm a gonna need about 6 of these buddy!
And then I asked for mayo, which they had to hunt down at a server station and it comes in a large wide-mouthed soup bowl with a spoon.
Ummm can I just get a little bowl of it??
He said he would do it for me BAH!
I prefer the mayo to be on the bottom (I know, I am anal like that
) but I didn't want to flip everything over and make a mess.
I prefer to dress my own burger, thank-you-very-muchly!
So, I asked him to just put it on the side of the plate, which he didn't seem very comfortable in doing. I assured him it would be okay, yet he ended up putting a little dollop ON the top bun.
Dude, I don't know what your problem is but ooookay!
The amount he gave me was ridiculously small though! Ummm, please, sir, can I have some more?
He kinda of gave me a weird look and gave me another little scoop. Really, I would have MUCH preferred bringing me the damn bottle or at least my own little bowl
Rob had a salad...
And then the yogurt for dessert, which was not what he was expecting but said it was delicious!
Lunch took WAY longer than I would have liked. But at the end of it, a head waiter (not ours) named Zsolt came by and chatted with us a bit. He asked us about our dining experience the previous evening and Rob and I just looked at each, followed by silence.
He could tell that we had some issues and pressed us for details, so I gave the man some details.
He said that he was going to talk to someone and make sure that tonight's service would run MUCH more smoothly. We explained to him that we would not be there for dinner as it was Formal Night and we had planned on some quality family pool time and then hitting Cabana's for dinner. He said he would speak to them regardless and make sure service was better tonight for the people that were going to be there and then for the rest of the week.
We thanked him for inquiring and for trying to make our cruise experience better. We found out the next day that he had spoken to our head server (Jaime) about that first night and that service at our table was amazing that night, however, with 5 of us missing, it SHOULD have been amazing!!!
After lunch, we decided to check out the adult clubs because Rob didn't get to see that area the night before.
I just LOVE all the art on the ship! Especially the big ones in the stairwells. I will show you my fave later on in the report.
You know, I didn't take a single photo of the adult clubs!!! OMG, you know I'm not feeling well when I don't get pics of something!
However, I did get some pics of the snacks that were out in the adult area
