Despite all my planning and finessing the details of our upcoming trip on the Disney Cruise, which includes two stops at Castaway Cay and active water-related shore excursions, my older daughter has managed to throw an unexpected curve.
She was at ice skating on Thursday evening, fell, and broke a bone in her hand!
Now, she's in a cast, and it is *possible* that she might be out of it in time for our trip but I need to come up with Plan B.
We might be able to get her switched to a 'waterproof' cast, but those are designed more for just getting wet a little (as I understand it) rather than being submerged for longer periods of time (such as snorkeling for hours).
We have a special bag that is water-resistant, which she uses for the shower, and we figure that would be useful for keeping sand out of the cast. ('m actually more concerned about sand than water because water will dry but sand could really tear up her skin if it gets into the cast.)
Thoughts? Suggestions? I'd appreciate them all!
