Hi all,
Just popped in to take care of a little business, yep had to do a little of that while on the trip. But not much.
A couple of quick updates for all of the obsessive planners out there.
If you are on LAP rotation - your character breakfast will be Monday morning. Early seating has an 8:15 breakfast. We had Palo brunch reservations that day - it is as to die for as reported! We went and just had coffee and a piece of toast so we could pig out at brunch!
The dining rotation has changed up again.
Saturday, Sunday, Monday - the regular restaurant menu - with Monday being formal night.
Tonight - Tuesday is Small World
Wednesday will be Mexical night
Thursday is Semi-formal and the menu that night is Captain's Gala with the lobster.
Friday is Master Chef's series.
If anyone is thinking about the Stingray excursion in GC I highly recommend it. And don't be shy about holding the rays, etc. We took Disney's Stingray City - just that, no turtle farm or He..
It was a large boat but not so many people that there wasn't attention. The sandbar is not large - so it is going to be crowded no matter what. And in a sense that helps as the waves are fairly strong - you're actually 6 miles out into the ocean. EVERYONE, and I mean everyone screams when the first few rays skim past them. Our 13 year old DD didn't stay in the water to long, she is about 5'5" and the waves were enough that she was having a really hard time keeping her feet. Her dad helped her through the experience and after about 15-20 minutes she was ready to get out of the water. I did ask (knowing that inquiring minds want to know) if this was a busy/slow day and whether it should be considered calm/rough. I was told it was a slow day - only about half dozen boats out that morning and very calm.
Ok, that is all for now. Heading back to the stateroom to change for dinner, Castaway Club reception is tonight also.
