Thursday was a busy last day at sea. We were so tired from the day before and Devin was still not up to par, so I think we all slept in a bit, which was fine with me! For the at sea days there were always cool thing to see and do. There was an art auction (which we passed on, but it was fin to watch other people spend $30,000 on Picasso originals). There was a princess gathering in the atrium, movies etc.
The kids each had activities in their kids clubs that they wanted to do that day, so we got to spend the day with both, neither or one at a time which was nice too. Devin was with us on deck when they did a live ice carving demonstration. The ice carver was from Thailand, so of course I felt the need to go talk to him after wards.
We sat by the pool some more and I did a full out slip onto my butt by the side of the pool. I was "that woman who fell". Fortunately it did nothing but leave me with a couple bruises, a spilled drink (which they replaced for me) and a sheepish look on my face. I had seen a few other people go down in this spot and realized that wearing flip flops there was not a good idea. Oh well!
It was a pretty bump day at sea. The water in the pool was sloshing to and fro like crazy. I'll try to upload the video of Julia and Neil in the pool - quite funny! By that night it was so bumpy they were putting motion sickness bags out in the common area bathrooms. Never a good sign!
We had been feverishly (no pun intended) trying to gather autographs of all the characters all week but still hadn't found Donald Duck! We finally got to meet him that day. Julia was petting his feathers and telling him how soft he was. Hee hee.
The kids both had an opportunity to be part of the Ocenareers Club/Lab show with all their new friends called "Friendship Rocks". It was held in the big theater right before dinner. Very cute. Devin chose to participate and got a tee shirt to keep. Julia had chosen not to and sat there through the whole show wishing that she had.
Devin is also wearing a baseball cap that he won for being on the first place team that afternoon playing "Disney Scene It". Anyone who has played this game with our children know that they dominate at it, so I was NOT at ALL surprised to see he'd won something!
This was our "semi-formal" night at dinner and we all got dressed up and headed down. Neil started to get a fever right before dinner, so we were down two now. He and Devin didn't stay through all of dinner, so we had some food sent up. They each took some Tylenol and rallied to go to the show that night which was incredible. Julia even had a "Slumber Party" with Goofy after the show. She she was going until late that night! Goofy showed up in his jammies, they decorated pillow cases and told campfire stories. How fun!!
We went to bed and this was the night that the boat was REALLY rocky and Devin woke up with a fever that had spiked way up and felt really bad. Poor buddy!
