Day 2: A Day at Sea

Day Two! What a great night of sleep in a MOST comfortable bed with MOST comfortable pillows! I did NOT want to exit the softness of my dreamland, but there was a very hungry camper who was ready for an adventure! Daddy had a spa massage scheduled first thing that morning, so Grandma, Stryker & I got dressed and headed down to the breakfast buffet. We stuffed ourselves with omelets, french toasts, pancakes, sausage, bacon, fresh fruit... Anything you wanted! I love breakfast and I was in heaven! After breakfast, we headed one deck up and let Stryker play on the water park. Unfortunately, he was a tad short for the slides, but he had fun in the sprinklers while I soaked up some sun.




 
He loved that whale tail!
 
 
After awhile, he got a little bored and came to sit in my lap. He likes to have his picture taken and I like to have lots of cute pictures of him! :) He is sucha a ham!



 
 
 
Daddy found us on deck shortly after this and Stryker commenced to playing in the water again and even made some friends. 




 
We headed up to the suite for some order-in lunch and then it was time to take Stryker down to Camp Carnival. We had him pumped to play with kids his own age for a couple hours. We dropped him off and headed down to the pool for some relaxation for Mommy & Daddy. We watched people dance and participate in silly contests. We grabbed a bite to eat alone and then picked up our little guy. He said he had lots of fun, but had no interest in going back. Guess he figured we were having too much fun without him!
That evening was formal evening. Everyone eating in the dining room is requested to be in formal (ish) wear. Another highlight of the evening is meeting the Captain. Stryker was thrilled to meet the Captain of this boat and couldn't wait. We found in right away on the Promenade Deck.



After pics witht the Captain, we headed down to get cocktails near the dining room. Stryker used this opportunity to pose for me some more since he was all dressed up :) I adore that 'model' face!

We noticed everyone headed into the comedy club and decided we had enough time before dinner to see the act. We took a seat for the family friendly show and snapped a few pictures.




Someone please tell me why I can't get this kind of grin in pictures with Mommy?!?!?!




The show was alright... I'm sure the non-family friendly would've been a hoot :) It was time for dinner so we headed into the dining room and found our table. Of course, Stryker went straight to eating the bread and butter. We ordered him a special drink, but it turns out he's not a fan of Pina Coladas (virgin of course).






After dinner, we headed back up stairs found our nightly towel animals. Daddy & Stryker decided this was an ant-eater... Hmmm....
