Guess who was the 1st one up again on our sea day... this girl.
But instead of getting out of bed, I turned on the tv to check was was going on.
Looks like no sailing thru islands today, just lots and lots of sea for miles.
My standard coffee and a bagel came right on time,
Any guesses where I took my cup of Rumchatta out to read the fun times... hmmm
If you guessed the bathroom, well thats just disqusting LOL. Balcony is where I sat.
Went over the fun times, checked in on Facebook, along with on the hub to see what everyone was up to... but seamed they were all still fast asleep.
Eventually, I went in the room and got dressed. E was waking up at that time, so I asked if he wanted to go have brunch in the dinning room together.
Shockingly he said sure. I thought he would ditch me for sure and hit the gym.
But he left the party animals in bed and off we went to the Blush restaurant, where they sat us at a table for 2. It wasn't packed at all at 1st.
E had steak and eggs, with a side of pancakes.
I couldn't decide between french toast or eggs Benedict... I should have got the french toast. The eggs were ok but the hollandaise sauce tasted dried out... which is exactly how it looked. Live and learn. I did get a mimosa too... obviously didnt get a pic of that was too busy trying to choke down the eggs.
Once we were full, we went to see what was on sale in the shops. E of course was looking at shirts. Then I thought about my Instagram scavenger hunt and I needed a pic with Freddy. Since he no longer roams the ship, this lil guy would have to do. Should have bought him.. maybe next time.
E was really wanting to get a model ship, he thought it would be cool to start collecting all of them. But I talked him out of it as we had 1)no where to stuff it in our luggage and 2) no where to start collecting them in our house, as most places hold marine corps memorabilia.
With that crisis averted, we headed back to the room to change into our swimsuits and pack a bag. Off to chair hog and work on relaxing, our tan, my book, E napping and some beverages. The lido deck was already taken, so E didnt want to walk around waiting and hoping for a chair. So we went off to the Lanai, on starboard side and found deck chairs for MILES available.
I wishes my friends back home a happy bday via facebook since I had the social media package for internet. I seariously got my $25 worth.
Later we saw a Royal Caribbean ship pass by.
After a nap in the sun, I got up to get another round for us at the casino. But I walked by Fat Jimmy's BBQ 1st. Where the line was wrapping around the deck.... Um no food is worth waiting in a line that long. After getting 2 new beers, I got on the hub app to see what was going on around the ship. Which by the way it has a great way to see who on your hub friends list is doing activities if they click that they are attending it. As you can see here Justice was set to go to Name that Tune at 10am... which he was still in bed at that time as thats when we finished brunch LOL.
E went back to the room to change then his the gym. Thats when I went to the lido to check and see what fun was going on there. Plus I needed another beverage...
Since E ditched me, I headed to the lido deck to check out what fun was going on there. Got there just in time do shake my rump. You know we did all the dances, Cha Cha Slide, Wobble, Uptown Funk, etc.
When dancing was over they brought out the ice carving. That was my que to take my bucket o'beers and look for a deck chair.
Found one above the lido deck and proceeded to try and finish my book, and my beer...
After a while E came strolling along straight from the gym, nice and sweaty! He said he was going to go back to the room and take a nap. I deceided my book was more entertaining so I stayed... but then pulled out the fun times on the Hub App and saw Bingo was starting in like an hour.
While everyone was waiting to be able to jump back into the pool, I went back to the room and cleaned up. Then asked grandpa if he wanted to join me playing bingo. He said no twice even tried to talk me into staying and watching tv with him (no thats not what the kids are calling it now adays LOL).
As I was getting my S&S Card from the desk E said ok I'll go. Off we went, drinks in hand to the theater. I got in line to buy our game cards but really you shouldnt let a gal thats been in the sun all day drinking buy ANYTHING. What I thought was only $30, later I learned was $72 when I looked at my bill on the Hub App (you know when I was sober) Eh, when in rome LOL.
So the tab strip that you match items we did 1st, woo hoo $1. Watch out, someone beer me!
1st game was either make a X or a line, = NADA
2nd game was either make a C or a B (for Carnival or Breeze) = NADA again
Bartender HIT ME...actually I just took E's... someone had to be alert, and really we know its not going to be me!
Last game Blackout! Now if you can cover your square in 49#'s called or less you get $3000. Come on momma needs a new bucket of beers! On and on the number are called... on the 49th number NO one was standing (you stand when you are 1 number away from a Bingo) 50th number called E stands up, I chug a beer. 51st number called another person stands, I chug more beer, 52nd number, another person stands, my beer is now finished. 53rd number is called... and B-I-N-G-O is yelled out!
By these 2 people... HOLLA!
I yell Beer me B!T@HES... kidding I thought it though (there were kids around). We didnt win $3000 but we'll take a winning of $900!!!
After they confirmed our win, we had to take a pic with Ashley our best Bingo caller EVER! How cute is he, ok both of them really! And to think, E wanted to NAP! I mean.. your welcome. I think we skipped all the way to collect our winnings, of course stopping at the bar for a celebratory drink.. for me!
When we got back to the room, the boys were there already dressing for formal night pics. After telling them about Bingo all they kept saying was SHUT UP, SHUT UP! To which I would reply with I KNOW RIGHT! LOL.
Once we were all spiffed up, off we went to take some cheesy pics. I mean pics for our xmas cards.
We were (as we usually are on formal night) a HOT mess.
I had gotten sunburned on my face as the 1st sea day was overcast and I forgot sunscreen. So my nose was peeling, J had that lovely bruise on his face from Curacao, P forgot his black tie (Seriously boys you all had 1 job, Socks, Underwear, and Ties... and you failed all around! #facepalm). I told them both to just go without one then. Oh and E was ready for the nap he never got.
He we clean up nice though right. And even without ties the boys look cute. But man those photographers need some practice. They are off center and hardly any light on P's side. Even with bad lighting and off center I bought these.
Next Up: Im Hungry (maybe a lil thirsty too!)
