Disney Dream part 4

June 24, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

FFFFRRRIIIDDDAAYY! I am excited for today. The girls in my Sunday school class are coming over tonight for an ice cream party! Then tomorrow I am running 5 miles with my TNT group along the beach. Excited to train with them!

I know I said this before, but for those of you crazy kids loathing the Disney posts, they are almost over, and I will be back to regular running and healthy living posts!

In case you missed the first three…

Ok so the day after Nassau was our sea day. We knew the pools would be ridiculously crowded, so we avoided them. We had Palo brunch at 10:00, so we sat on the couches by the adult pool eating bananas to hold us over until then. Bobby and I did brunch on the Magic and were excited for my parents to experience it, and we of course has never done Palo brunch on the Dream.

It was so nice and fancy! We were seated by the window, and introduced to our server.

We were brought to the food, and the server showed us around to the different tables, then told us about the items we could order off the menu.

We made our first go around and dug in!

we ate….and ate…..and ate!

then we had dessert!

In case you didn’t know, Dessert is always my favorite.

the bathroom was really, really pretty. I know I am a dork.

After we ate ourselves into a food coma, we all went into our room and watched Little Fockers. It was ok, not near as funny as the first one. They never really are, sadly.

We wandered around the ship to walk our food off that afternoon.

and then sat on our verandahs and read books. So peaceful!

I really can’t remember what we did the rest of the day. I am betting I took a nap HA! I think we may have gone to the show that night in the theatre. it was semi formal night, so we got semi-dressed-up (haha) for dinner.

I borrowed this dress and it was a bit too big on me. whoops.

 

Dinner was in the Royal Palace. Look how cute the bread basket is!

ffffooooooddddd

we had a friend hanging out in the room after dinner.

_____________________________________________________________________

yesterday I did a 3 mile speed workout on the treadmill while Bobby was getting a massage. poor thing can’t even sit in a car straight up without being in excruciating pain. He has been knocked out on and off all day!

Today I am doing cross training and maybe some weights or abs before my TNT run tomorrow. Now I am off to clean for the party tonight!

QOTD: what is your favorite ice cream topping?

    I’m lovin’ your Disney posts… we went on a 5- night sailing on the Dream about a week after you and LOVED it so kind of re-living it through your detailed posts 🙂 We’d read all the complaints about the super crowded pools before sailing on Cruise Critic and so were a little worried about that… but honestly even on the at sea day we had no issues … no we couldn’t swim laps in the pool 😉 but had no problems finding chairs and were able to get in the pools to get wet without an issue and even on the at sea day I think the longest we waited for the Aquaduck was 30 mins (we rode that a lot… so fun!)

What I love most? It gets us laughing, playing, and moving together. The games are active and designed with real child development principles in mind — which means I feel good about the screen time. And when she plays solo? I know she’s safe — no online strangers, just fun, movement, and confidence-building play.

Whether we’re all competing or she’s playing on her own, @nexplayground has become one of our favorite ways to stay active and connected as a family.
