Another sea day and more sunshine

We lost an hour overnight with a clock change, so felt like we were getting up super later at 9am, but it kinda wasn't. And most people were still up after us.

Breakfast on deck, and simple fruit and yogurt for me (and maybe a sneaky doughnut) as we wanted to go to a sit down restaurant for lunch instead of the buffet.

We tried to go on the Aquamouse water ride but the wind was too strong so it was closed, so went shopping instead. 😆 I did smirk at the lady in the store that said, I'm already spending 5 million dollars in this store so why not buy that as well. I need to try that line. So far I've used "we have a Castaway club 10% discount " and "there's no tax" so obviously we need to buy now.

Additional shopping done, and it was pretty much lunchtime. Went into 1923, a restaurant dedicated to the beginnings of Disney studios and the start of the company in 1923. It's classic mahogany and 1920's styling. The food was good, rather plentiful. The saladas a starter could have been a main. And the puddings were awesome. Gold rush sundae for me and Macadamia nut brownie pie for Heath. Yum. We did have a giggle at the name of one of the servers- see the photo of his name badge. V infantile, but we can't help ourselves.

More chill time on the verandah beckoned - nicely in the sun so we could enjoy some warmth while reading. Warmth turned out to be quite hot, so had to have a shade break before a bit more sunny reading, then off to meet Walter (Eugene couldn't make it as they are also travelling with 16 other people including a bunch of kids in the family). Lovely chat with Walter comparing Disney experiences we'd had.

We also had an unexpected visit from Room service, bringing a bottle of bubbly fruit drink - the gold version of the blue one from yesterday. It was an apology for the unannounced room changes and for the delay in our Castaway Club gifts arriving (which finally arrived today instead of being in the room when we got onboard).

Before dinner we headed to Haunted Mansion Parlor for a couple of drinks, and got good seats at the bar. We did drinks and then shared a zero-proof restless spirits drink that came on a Gargoyle holder, and some collectable bottles to take home. 😁 Shame we can't keep the gargoyle. The Parlor will get it's own footprint to do it justice, it's so cool and the Imagineers have done an immense job with it.

Dinner was in Worlds of Marvel with the interactive show to help Ant-man and the Wasp, plus some other Avengers showing up to save the ship from Ultron robots. Spiderman did his turn taking pics too.

Bedtime after dinner, and there was a dinosaur waiting for us on the bed. Harmless plant-eater though, oh and made of towels, so not too scary. Czytaj więcej
