A Disney December, Part Four
We woke up on Thursday ready for fun. After a yummy breakfast buffet at Cabanas, we started one of the Midship Detective Agency adventures. This is a fun, interactive game that involves solving a mystery using digital paintings at different locations all over the ship. There are two different mysteries, and the kids enjoyed solving both of them over the course of the cruise.
After the first mystery, Emily headed to the kids club while Andrew and Adam went to the sports simulator. Emily and I planned to go parasailing on Castaway Cay (the boys didn't want to join us), so we booked this as a fun treat for Andrew. He and Adam had a great time pretending to play football, baseball, soccer, etc...
After the simulator, we ate lunch and then headed into Nassau for a very brief visit. We hadn't booked an excursion in Nassau, but the kids wanted to set foot in a foreign country, so we headed into the visitor center to browse the shops. Andrew and Emily found some souvenirs and stopped for a photo with Adam. Adam is not usually dressed in such a festive manner.
Back on the ship, Andrew went to play basketball while Emily and I took the time to visit with some friends...
Next, we all went to the Buena Vista Theater to see Wreck-It Ralph. We knew that this movie would be showing on the ship, so we waited for the cruise to see it. The kids really enjoyed it, but I admit that Adam and I both fell asleep for a little while. We were so tired!
After the movie, it was time for dinner. The four-night cruises do not have a formal night, but there is an optional dress-up night. To Andrew's great dismay, I brought some "church clothes" for us to wear. To Emily's great delight, she found several characters even more dressed up than we were.
We enjoyed dinner in Animator's Palate. During this meal, Crush from finding Nemo entertains guests. This was enjoyable, especially for the kids as they waited for their food.
Before heading back to the room, we all participated in the Family Dream Quest, a fun scavenger hunt, and then Emily and I went to the show (Villain's Tonight) while Adam and Andrew participated in an X-box Kinect Challenge. It was a great end to a wonderful day!
