Day 10 – Sea Day (Friday, July 27)

Our last day, a sea day, with time to rest and relax….. not! We had the character breakfast in the morning. This one was disappointing for us compared to previous cruises. It was more of a sing-along, dance-along show. In the past, the characters stopped at each table to take pictures with the children (and adults). This time, Jamie kept chasing around Minnie, Goofy, Belle, etc. to try to get a picture taken with them, but they were “well trained” and kept on moving. Jamie was a bit confused by this… Then the morning continued with a 10:30am screening of Ratatouille (great movie!). And we had arranged for a special meal – an Indian Balti dish to be served at the sit down lunch in Lumiere’s. This was a good change of pace meal – be sure to ask for these special meals when on board – I think the staff appreciates it because then they also get a chance to eat their own native cuisine.
We timed the lunch just right, and walked right out into the main lobby for the last chance to take pictures with the characters. Jamie and I made the rounds and got pictures with each and every one of them. Finally!

Then we were able to squeeze in a few hours pool before we had to head to the room to pack. One of the downers is having to pack up suitcases the evening before disembarking – you have to keep your nightgown, toiletries and change of clothes for the morning, all the other bags get taken away about 10pm. Then our final dinner was a nice Palo meal with Dad and Nan. The day was GONE!!! We didn’t even have time to do the show in the evening (Remember the Magic) because we still hadn’t selected and paid for our pictures at Shutters, we had to finish packing, etc.
