Keeping our heads above water
Another day at sea before we get to islands tomorrow. Demelza felt better by lunch time yesterday, and I've figured out the lights in the stateroom.
You can turn the lights off and on without removing the key card from the slot--plus, there is a "porthole" since our room is entirely interior. It's a round window with a little video of the sea. Every once in a while, a Disney character flies or swims past including the pegasus horses from Fantasia and the house from Up aloft on balloons.
Highlights of Sunday--we were going down to see the Aladdin show, dressed in our finery for formal night and who gets on the elevator with us? Princess Tiana! So we got a private meeting with her. Demelza was so thrilled. The Aladdin show was fantastic, and we've seen it any number of times at Disneyland.
Demelza had a hour and a half massage with hot rocks alone while I relaxed with a book, a brownie, and chai latte. Very nice!
For dinner, we were in the Royal Court restaurant with tile mosaics of royal princesses on the walls. Demelza indulged in her favorites: Lobster and shrimp, both in the appetizer and the main course, lobster pasta. What was funny was that one of our table mates had exactly the same thing. The other two are a nice couple, D and C. I had to laugh because When I noticed that we'd arrived at the table before they did, Demelza asked "the two brothers?" I said, "Honey, they are husbands." She knows at least three friends who have same sex parents, so it's not exactly a new concept to her. D, in particular, is quite chatty and we talked a lot of the dinner.
I had yummy, yummy fried brie and a bowl of sauted veggies with seared ahi. The vegetables were tasty but seared ahi isn't my favorite. Ah well, live and learn. Two desserts, since I ordered an apple tart, and also got a chocolate thing (not sure what, it wasn't cake) when the waiters sang Happy Birthday to me.
This morning, we got big (and I mean BIG) hugs from Chewbacca! And I went in the hot tub while Demelza watched Lion King on a huge screen. She will watch any Disney movie over and over again, quite happy.
