Day 3 Sea Day

Ellen and I woke up to watch the sun rise. We sat up on deck 24, then walked to explore more of this big ship. We found the putt putt area and these private cabanas. I laid down and fell asleep. Glenn met up with me.

Glenn and I had bfast in the main dining room.

We attended a church service. Black ladies from a church in Richardson Texas had a short 3 day retreat. Their music was lively and energetic. Glenn was the only man in the room.

11:00am and it was time for my nap. I slept til 1pm in time to go to the main theatre and watch the World Cup game. I decided to pull for espana. Lizzie was with us.

There was a Vietnamese family sitting in front of us that ordered pizza, popcorn and smoothies. They were kind to give us popcorn and a smoothie.

I left at the end of regulation play. Time to get ready for dinner. I took Lizzy back with me.

We had a delightful dinner. The kids were a little bit tired.

We ALL went to the final show. This time we sat in the balcony. Good show.

The kids enjoyed looking for “ducks” around the ship. It was kinda a contest to see where they would discover them. The washy washy guy handed Amanda a duck and the people down the hall gave the girls a duck. Even the lady sitting next to Amanda in the balcony handed her a tiny tiny duck. And at the end of the show Amanda dropped it over the ledge. I’m not sure if Amanda snd Emily found the little duck.

Had all our luggage out the door by 10pm.

Summary had a great cruise! The kids loved hunting for ducks, the older kids enjoyed the water slides and the double A’s made friends in the Kids Club plus Ellen and Luke loved the cruise experience.

Now when I tell the grandkids that Grammie and Granddad are going on a cruise they can identify with some of the things we do and like.Read more
