The cruise was fabulous. Our 1st one. We ate at the buffet and ckd out oceaneer lab for DS. Then we had dinner at Artist's Palatte. That was so cool with the changing colors. The first nite we did feel the sway of the boat. DS was at the lab and DH and I lounged on deck 4 on the chairs and it was peaceful and just listening to the water was great.
Nassua and DS 8th b-day on Monday. We got off the boat, that docked later than expected, and walked to Bay Street. Went into a couple of stores and said back to the ship. Not one of our favorite places. DS back to the lab. Parrot Cay for dinner.
Tuesday Castaway Cay day. The best time!!!!!! Fed and snorkeled with the sting rays first. On the way back to the family beach there was a wedding taking place over looking the water. Very romantic!!!!! Swam in the water for awhile. DS tried to go across the rope off of the tower thing in the water. At first he was a little scared then he finally did it. We took him to Scuttle cove. they had lunch and play games. We had lunch and then decided to go snorkeling. DH did see underwater Mickey. I was having problems with my mask and the tide was coming in . So by the time I figured out my mask(contacts and salt water don't mix well) it was to late for me to see Mickey. NEXT TIME!!! Then we rushed over to get DS from SC. We had banana boat ride waiting for us. That is one WILD RIDE!!! We had so much fun. Lucky for us we wore our snorkeling mask w/o the snorkel. The next couple of days our arms hurt from holding on. The muscles were really sore.
We went back to the ship after the BBR. Dinner was at Parrot Cay Pirate themed.
That night was the pirate party.. It was fun. Fireworks were fabulous.
Wednesday was a day at sea. DS at the lab again. We did the Galley tour and went to DVC thing. Oceaneerlab and club did a graduation and the parents and whoever got to see it . Really cute!! Dinner was at Tritions. Then we watched the show in the theatre. BEAUTIFUL!!! DS went back to lab instead. Doesn't know what he missed!!!
Over all.....
Food was fantastic. Plenty to do. Crew members were great. Three inpeticular... Danielle at the lab, Kerrie our server, and Pandy our assistant server. Everything was very clean, bathrooms, constantly, were kept clean, washing your hands with sanitizer cloth before eating(entering the resturants) or drinking.(by the fountain). Our room was great (inside stateroom) wasn't to small.
to sum it up CAN"TWAIT TO DO IT AGAIN!! maybe a longer one
