(Cruise Day #6 and 1/2) Eat, Drink & Be Merry!

When deciding on a meal plan for all of us at the beginning stages of cruise planning, Kathy and Steve chose 'My Time Dinning". This seemed like the best option because you could eat in the main dinning room at any time and supposedly didn't have to wait. Well......it didn't always end up that way.....we kept getting pushed back till about 8:30 p.m. Which was getting pretty late for a four year old to eat. (Lost of times we went to the buffet and let him have a pre-dinner to hold him over!)

So, during those times of waiting, we headed down to one of the many little lounges for some drinks!

I look pretty excited in this picture, but actually the blue drink tasted absolutely terrible! The bar tender was really sweet and she made me another one :)

All of the staff and crew on the ship were SO attentive and really tried to anticipate your every need! These were our favorite servers in the dinning room-the one on the left was called Shabang and his brother was ummm....now I can't remember.....anyways they were THE COOLEST!!!! They always brought Sawyer tons of ice cream and cookies, made him hats out of cloth napkins and always smiling ear to ear!

Lobster Night. The guys had been looking forward to lobster night all week long. And let me tell ya', Royal Caribbean did not dissapoint! And of course the boys couldn't just eat one main course! Who has heard of that?!? So they each ordered lobster and then something else kind of light-like beef tenderloin or pork chops....good grief! When all of our food would arrive and we were having to move center pieces just to fit it all on the table, it wasn't just fat-America anymore, it was fat-Caribbean! And to top it all off, our server brought a plate full of additional lobster to share because apparently twenty four plates of food wasn't quite cutting it!

All the little piggies, belly up at the feeding trough.

Don't ask me why were were all trying to make mad faces....well, it was nearing the end of the cruise and we must have been running out of things to talk about.

Looking over the railing into the dark world underneath. There is nothing like fresh sea breeze, fully tummys, and good company!
