We did sleep in today. Breakfast was 9 am at Topsiders again. Austin was off to the Lab, surprise.

Lunch was a seafood buffet at Parrot Cay. My dear family is so sweet. I am the only seafood lover in the bunch, but they came along and let me feast on the seafood while they found more boring food to suit their tastes.

Jim went to the Stem to Stern wine tasting followed by jackpot bingo. He liked the wine tasting, learned a lot, and got a pin. He didn't win the bingo, but had fun and met some CM "rookies" earning their ears. He said they were very nice.

Austin, Sammy and I went to see "Brother Bear" at the Buena Vista Theatre, and someone is calling my name! Look it's Mailman and family again, alright, who is stalking who? I think they just have great taste in their chosen adventures. I cried at the movie, geez :blush: The theatre is built with great economy of space. There is not a great deal of leg room, and only two aisles on the outside edges. That means if you sit in the middle of a row and you have to get up during the movie, everyone along the row has to stand to let you pass. A little snug. I like the seats in the Walt Disney Theatre, much more space and comfortable chairs.

Austin's back at the Lab. Sammy and I got her hair braided into some cornrows, a great advantage with all the wind we've been having. We didn't have an appointment and the lady very graciously worked us in after about a ten minute wait. Very cute princess: and now we are going to check out the ships stores. Some very cute stuff.

Dinner was semi-formal in Parrot Cay. Sammy wore her formal and impressed Retish. Ivan did some magic tricks and then Retish gave us tips for when we get to Castaway Cay. Oh, look across the room, it is Mississaguamom and family. After dinner Austin was back to the Lab until 11 pm.

Jim, Sammy and I went to Disney Dreams. This is a remarkable production and I was impressed yet again at the professionalism of the cast and the incredible stage. We all gave it thumbs way up.

Today was a much more relaxing day, as we didn't HAVE to be anywhere, and we are looking forward to Castaway Cay coming up tomorrow.
 
I'm really enjoying your reports as I'm getting close to double digits before my own cruise. You've even given me some shopping ideas!

What was your highlight of your last sea day? Did they have "Adult Pool Games?"
 
They did have adult pool games at Quiet Cove at 2:30. My daughter wasn't interested in the club this day, however. We did lots of cool things this day, we watched the ice sculpture, and went to "Brother Bear", and got my daughter's hair braided. The wind was strong enough that being on deck for long wasn't terribly pleasant.

Jim (DH) did the Stem to Stern wine tasting and bingo.

I'd have to say the highlight was Disney Dreams and my daughter's face as she watched it.
 

What a great day! Sammy's hair looked so cute! Lara and I had already seen "Brother Bear" but it was wonderful to have so many choices of what to do on a lazy sea day.

"Disney Dreams" was a major highlight for us too!
 
How was the wine tasting and bingo. They are two of my favorite activities on sea days!!!
 
The wine tasting was very good and they show you a very cool champagne parlor trick. Learned the basics.

Bingo was fun, the longer you wait to play the bigger the jackpot gets. It was exciting. The big winner on the last bingo took home $5,300 tax free. $35 per card pack to play. I discovered you have to pay attention to the Navigator about when to buy your cards, so you aren't late.
