Day 7, Sea Day
Today was another glorious day at sea, and a lazy one for us. I didn’t write down when we woke up, but at 10:30 I took laundry down to start. There were several ladies in there hovering. I didn’t have to wait too long to put my laundry in a washer, but the hovering ladies were too annoying. They were like the laundry patrol. Back to the room I found mom watching The Hunchback of Notre Dame, I never really liked that one, it always made me sad/upset how they treated Quasimodo. I took a shower and got ready, then went to check on my laundry. Mom came with me and I’m glad she did. The place was pandemonium! People squished inside, people waiting in the hallway, it was so hot from all the machines going and all the people in there. Apparently I got a little testy with someone who was waiting and mom checked me on it. I didn’t think I was testy but the gentleman I was talking to apparently had a very surprised look on his face. All I had said was that I was going to use the washer that I was taking my clothes out of. Perhaps that was against laundry etiquette. Well in the end we took our wet clothes and hung them in the room. I think somebody suggested we try again at night, it’s usually empty at night, and mom thought that was an excellent idea. We would test it out later.
I forgot to say that last night mom had asked our head server if we could have rice crispy treats that they gave out at the CC reception since we had missed it. It was a long shot but why not ask. When we were back in the room we had an unexpected knock on the door and a kindly CM presented us with these beauties.
They went back home for my brother and sister in law who were taking care of the boys for me. I absolutely LOVE rice crispy treats but have to make them myself because the rice crispy puffs they use are made with malt and that will trigger an allergy reaction for me.
Then up to find some lunch, it was quite late by this time. We stopped at the Cove Café to get mom a croissant. Those croissants are so much better than the ones they have in BBB. We happened upon Minnie in her adorable beach outfit and had to stop!
Mom wouldn’t let go of her croissant
We were on cloud 9 when we left Minnie! Each and every character interaction this trip was so special, they really went above and beyond.
Then it was really time for some lunch and to BBB we went. We sat outside in the back, it was a gorgeous day.
Mom’s plates
I think this was coconut rice pudding with raspberry sauce, she said it was divine!
My plates
And desserts, mom had more of the rice pudding it was that good
Lunch was so yummy all around. We were fit to burst afterwards and slowly made our way to the ice carving demonstration at 1:15 I think it started.
Jamesy was one of our entertainment CMs and he was a riot. Always happy and full of energy, I hope we see him on future cruises.
I had a perfect view until this person decided to squat right in front of me.
It was so cool to watch and they made it look so easy.
