Today was an "At Sea" day with a Pirate Celebration in the evening. As you can see we had a gorgeous day with very calm seas and nothing to look at but water. So, it was a perfect day to explore the ship and visit some of the areas we had not seen before.
Clubs, clubs, and more clubs. This ship has so many clubs that everyone is sure to find one that they like. I thought I had heard 18 clubs and that sure seemed like a lot, but once I started writing them all down I did indeed have 18 and I may have missed a few. They start with "It's a Small World" for the 3 month to 3 year olds to adult clubs like Pink, 687, Meridian,Evolution, Skyline and many more. Here's a picture walking through what they call "The District" where many of the adult clubs are located. Looks like Tinkerbell sprinkled some pixie dust to lead the way.
This is "Pink". It's designed to look like the inside of a champagne bottle. The glass work over the bar is by Dale Chihuly. What fun to see a Washington artists work in the Bahamas.
The Disney characters appear occasionally for picture sessions. What an exciting time this is for the little ones. Well, me too as I was right there taking pictures. We get a daily "Personal Navigator" which is like a little newspaper telling all the events for the day. One of items listed is when and where the characters will be.
The adult deck and pool area. Ahhhhh, relaxing!!!
The Mickey and Donald pools for the kids. Yikes, true craziness!! Notice the water slide in the upper left of the picture.
Having lunch on the deck outside Cabanas
Nyomen is so good at making our towels animals each night so when they offered a class for is I couldn't resist going. I better tell you what they are as some are totally unrecognizable.
DOG MONKEY
SWAN
ELEPHANT
They showed this reading area in a Disney ad, so we decided we had to take out picture there. In the ad it looked very comfortable, but let me tell you there was no way to get comfortable here.
On a ship this size with 4000 people it seems odd that there would be no one in the halls. However, here we are again looking down a long hallway with no one in site.
PIRATE NIGHT HAS BEGUN!!!!
Carol and Candy at the Pirate Night dinner
Food and more food and all very delicious.AND, I did not gain weight.
Tonight at dinner was the only night we could buy the light up pirate glasses. Since they change colors it made for a festive table. I just had to get one for all the kids.
Laura joined Cindy and me for dinner again tonight. Vladimir is the dinning room host and was really enjoying the pirate night festivities.
Night lights out on deck. Yes, that is a movie playing in the right picture. They have a movie showing there all day and once again, the schedule is in the Personal Navigator. The kids can be in the pool while watching a movie and there is also seating for adults.
The pools are covered over in preparation for the Pirate Night events. After the guests have sat and watched the pirate show and fireworks this area will become a dance floor.
A pirate show starts off the evening entertainment.
Topped off with the only at sea fireworks show. Disney always does it up big!
And a monkey made by Nyoman greats us as we return from a very fun evening.
