Disney Cruise - DAY 2


The 2nd day was a full day out at sea which meant that we spent the entire day in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight.  So first thing in the morning we opened our door and spent some time out on our balcony admiring the vast ocean.  It was an amazing sight!! 



 We then went to the fully catered breakfast where the kids just pigged out on whatever food they wanted to have.  Several times during the trip Brayden and Logan both said, "so we get all the food we want and we don't have to pay for it?"  It was like their little minds couldn't even comprehend the idea. 




After breakfast the kids wanted to go straight in the pool and water slides.  Why not??

 





We then took Logan to a cooking class where they were teaching us how to make creme brulee.  This is Logan and Camille watching a real Executive Chef teach.  After about 10 minutes of that and he realized it was more designed for adults.  So he decided he wanted to go into the KIDS CLUB.  The kids club consisted of 2 huge areas where they had computers set up along the walls, tv's everywhere, and they constantly were playing games, doing science experiments, and getting visits from Disney characters.  Our boys sure loved going to the kids club. 





After a few hours we pulled the kids out to watch a really fun magic show.  The magicians had a lot of kids come up on stage and even showed all of us a magic trick that we could impress others with.  BTW our kids performed that magic trick every night for the first week we were back :)  They handed everyone a string as we came in and then taught us the trick during the show.









After lunch we caught the Disney show called the Golden Mickey's.  Before the show a woman was outside of the doors interview people acting like they were walking down the red carpet.  Well Brayden and his cousin Tate were among those interviewed and it played on the huge screen in the auditorium for all to see.  I had to capture the moment.  The show was AWESOME again!!




After the Golden Mickey's show we dropped our kids off at the KIDS CLUB and joined Johnny and Aliceia playing shuffleboard.  We had so much fun!!  And it wasn't just because Camille and I beat them in 3 straight games, although that was fun.  But it was a blast just enjoying the beautiful view of the ocean, playing a fun game and hanging out with our family.







After a few hours of shuffleboard it was time to get ready for dinner.  But first I had to get Brayden from the KIDS CLUB.  I had to take a picture of the area where he was playing because of how cool this place was.  I didn't realize at the time that they prohibit people from taking pictures of the kids club so this might be the only picture anyone has.  Brayden is playing some pirate ship game on a computer here.




Dinner was again amazing this 2nd night.  We dressed up a little bit more than the first night.  When we first sat down we were surrounded by all of these pictures and paintings of the Nemo characters.  Then after we had been sitting there a while the pictures started to swirl around and the pictures came to life.  It was amazing!!  Crush and the other turtles were talking and swimming all around the room through all of dinner.  The most amazing part was when crushed stopped right in front of our table and started having a conversation with us.  He was asking us questions and then commenting on our answers.  It was awesome!  He called Brayden little green shirt dude which was fitting with Brayden's green shirt that night. 















We finished the night watching the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl on the HUGE screen on the top deck while swimming and eating as much pizza, ice cream, and french fries as possible.  YES we were still hungry :)






Although we don't have pictures my brothers and I finished the night playing 2 on 2 basketball on the 12 deck until about 12:30am.  It was another amazing day and EVERYONE enjoyed themselves!!
