I woke up around 7:00am today. Dad was out of the room taking pictures and getting us drinks and going to Guest Services so he wouldn't have to do that later.

While dad was doing that I got ready for the day and packed most of my things so I wouldn't have to pack them later. Dad got back and we headed up to Cabanas for breakfast which was great today. After breakfast we went up to the top decks to take some pictures.

I told my dad I would meet him later on Castaway Cay since he was staying on a little later then me so he could ride Aquaduck without a long line. So I left and video taped and took some pictures.

I got off the ship and headed to find a spot on the beach.

What I did is really a blur. I'm pretty sure I just sat and got some sun and went in the water a little. Dad got off the ship and met me and took my picture.

Dad left and went to do other things and he took some pictures and a video.

I just went back in the water, it got cold so I got out. It was 11:30am so I went and got a Konk Kooler and got some lunch. After lunch as I was walking back to my chair on the beach I stubbed my toe and it started bleeding, so off I went to first aid to have in wrapped up. Got that taken care of and went back to the chair. Dad showed up and I told him what happened. We both went and got Konk Koolers.

Dad decided to head back to the ship then. He took some pictures while heading back.

I stayed on Castaway Cay a while more and then started heading back to the ship while taking pictures and videos.

Got on the ship and headed up to deck 11 for a sandwich, it was amazing turkey and cranberry and roast beef as well. After that headed to the stateroom to shower. Dad came back to the room and said he was going to see Disney's Believe show at 4:00pm, because he fell asleep during the other shows. While he did that I walked around and took pictures and videos.

It was getting close to dinner time, so I went to shutters to buys pictures I was going to by and then headed to the stateroom to get ready and then met up with my dad in the Atrium.

Dinner was in Royal Palace tonight and we were in a private kind of room. Dinner was good again tonight.

After dinner I went to the shops one last time and then headed to Disney's Believe. It is a great show I think. After that headed back to the stateroom real quick to make sure I had everything packed. I left my dad and said I meet up with him at Evolution at like 10:00. I walked around the ship and while. Met up with my dad and we got some pictures with Trevor(who is amazing and funny)

We went into Evolution. I ordered another chocolate martini. We played the 80's Music Challenge and did pretty bad. Dad left after that, but I stayed for 8 Trax theme night. I danced and I got to meet the older couple from Match Your Mate on the first night, they were really awesome, this night the cruise staff that was there seemed amazing as well. 4 different ones got me up to dance and showed me how to do some of the dances, so that was amazing. I got another a couple more drinks and hung out at the bar talking with some people and danced a little more.

Left Evolution and walked around taking you guessed it pictures and videos.

My son actually was looking over my shoulder as i was reading your report and said "hey, there goes me and Gabriel in that pic" He was thrilled to see he was on the internet lol. we were also right down the hall from you in 2514 and everytime we passed your door my son would point out your magnets.

While I was on the ship, dad got off and took some pictures.

Back on the Dream I had a headache so I went and relaxed on deck 4 for a while and watched some of this diaper dash thing happening in the Atrium, idk it was werid. It was nearing lunch time so I headed up to Cabanas for some lunch, ran into dad was so back on the ship by now and he joined me. Lunch was good had some chicken fingers, fries, ham, mac n cheese, beans, and sushi and also had a dessert. After lunch I told my dad when I would meet up with for the martini tasting and then I headed back to the stateroom to take something for my headache. After that I headed up to deck 4 and relaxed while listening to my ipod, I think I actually fell asleep as well. At 2:00pm after a little nap I was feeling good so I headed up to deck 11 for ice cream and some beer, 2 for 1 deal going on, good timing. So I sat on deck 12 and enjoyed those. I walked around more and took some pictures.

Met up with my dad outside Meridian

We did the Martini Tasting which was good and I hope to do it on the Fantasy in April when I cruise.

After the tasting we headed back down to the stateroom and my headache was back and it felt like I was spinning when I tried to lay down, so dad left me to rest, but I couldn't so I headed up to deck 11 for pizza and soda and brought it back down to the room and took some videos.

After a while I decided to get ready for the night and headed up to get a picture with Mickey.

I had a little time before Captain Jack Sparrow came out so I people watched for a while and then got a picture with Captain Jack Sparrow.
