Free Room Service, again!! What a way to wake up, I completely took advantage of this service, another great tip was having the over the door shoe organizer which I had my tip envelope in the pocket so when they brought the tray in it was easy to tip. Today was our last day and we really didn't have many plans, except enjoy the boat. The kids were fast asleep so DH and I went down to the stores for some shopping. I was able to get my Christmas ornament, we got DS the itinerary shirt and a few other gifts for people back home. Once we finished our shopping expedition, DH went back to the room to check on the kids while I went to the rebooking desk to book our next cruise. Another tip, if you are going to book onboard, do it early. When I walked by later in the afternoon there were people everywhere, I was very happy I got this out of the way early in the day.
After rebooking I headed back to the cabin where everyone was dressed and ready for some breakfast. We headed up to BBB and had a great breakfast outside. DS decided to head off to his club and DD wanted to go to her club for Mouseketeer in Training and Do Si Do with Snow White, so we headed to drop both of them off.
When we purchased our items this morning we received free bingo cards, so DH and I decided to go try our hands at Bingo. DH and I are not big gamblers, we dont like to lose money, so when we walked in and found that the smallest amount to play was $40 we decided we would just hang around until the free game. The cruise staff tries really hard to keep everyone alive and into the game, I have to give this staff 5 stars for all their hard work. We had seen them all over the ship and they always had great energy. Needless to say, DH and I didnt win, but we enjoyed our drinks and had a few laughs and it was a good time.
After Bingo and losing our shirts
DH and I headed over to the Buena Vista Theater for Disney Innovations: Theme Parks. DH and I know a lot about the parks, but never turn down an opportunity to learn a new factoid or two. The presentation was just that a presentation, while it was educational it wasnt overly entertaining, DH and I did enjoy it and did learn some new things, but a word to the wise, that theater is COLD. I was freezing the whole time.
After our adults morning out, I went and picked DD up from her club where she and a few other kids were doing a puzzle with one of the counselors. They were also doing face painting in the club so we stopped and DD picked a rainbow for her face.
DH had gone to pick up DS so they could finally watch Prince of Persia, every time they tried all week something happened and they didnt make it, but this time they were able to make it over to the theater. DD and I went over to BBB for some lunch, the line was still outside the door, but moved fairly quickly. This was the only time other than embarkation any of us ate lunch at one of the dining rooms, for some reason lunch just never seemed to work into our schedule and by the time it did the dining rooms were closed. I was surprised by how they had the buffet laid out. On one side was the kids items and the other was the adult side. This made getting lunch a little bit more complicated. DD really wanted spaghetti and meatballs which was not offered on the adult side, so we went through the adult side and then found a table and then went back through the kids side to get her food. I am not sure why they dont just put both offerings on both sides of the buffet?
After lunch DD and I went to the goofy pool to watch Wall E on the jumbo screen, we both had our drinks from Deck 9 and sat in one of the loungers enjoying the movie. After the movie DD asked to go back to her club, they were doing Wheres Tink so I took her down and then headed over to the cabin to start on some of the packing. While I was packing DH showed up and helped me start to get the packing done. We were both disappointed that the cruise was coming to an end, but excited that we would be going over to the parks tomorrow for
MNSSHP which was easing some of the blues.
I had signed DH up for the Tequila tasting earlier on so he headed over there and I roamed the boat taking some pictures before I got a page that DD would be attending Friendship Rocks in the theater.
Friendship Rocks is a cute little show that the club counselors put on with the kids from the clubs and Mickey and Minnie. DS did not participate, but DD had the best time.
Each of the kids also got to keep their t-shirts from the show, after the show they take all the kids back to the clubs so the parents can pick them up. Tonight was Dreams and I really wanted to see that show after everything I had read on DIS about it, so I got DD and met DH back in the room to get ready. He had really enjoyed the Tequila tasting; he said they gave you 3 different tequilas and 2 margaritas. DS did not want to attend and wanted to stay in his clubs and since he had been so good the whole cruise we told him it was ok, but he was to meet us for dinner at Parrot Cay.
Dreams was wonderful, this is a definite must see show. Even DH thought it was fantastic and was surprised by all the theatrics they did on a ship.
After the show we headed over to dinner at Parrot Cay. I know many here on the DIS are not fans of Parrot Cay, but this was one of our favorites. The bread was so yummy and the dinner selections were fantastic. DH, DS and I all ordered the mixed grill and then we got the rib eye to share.
Everything was delicious. DD of course got the mac and cheese. Tonight we had to give Anthony and Carlo there tips, they so earned them. Both of them treated us so well so the entire cruise. When they reminded us about breakfast in the morning we realized our time was quickly coming to an end.
We finished up eating and headed back to the cabin to get our suitcases out. I was able to get everything out the door in a few minutes. I had already done most of the day bag packing for Animal Kingdom tomorrow earlier on, so all I had to do was throw in the last few items and put the new luggage tags on. Everyone was getting pretty sleepy from the long day, so I headed out to take some last departing shots of the ship and headed to bed!
You are getting me so excited for our up coming trip! Your trip report is great so far! I hope you report on the pirate party!
I love your tip on the walki talkies, Im always the early bird when we go to Disney Im always up had coffee in the hot tub, showered and ready by the time the wake up call rings!
I started it way back before my cruise! (Which seems like such a long time ago. )
