It was hard sleeping in the same room as the kids, they got up WAY to early, (6:30)and when they saw us, decided that it must be time to go go go! We had a full day. We read the schedule and decided which activities we wanted to do.
Befor breakfast, we explored the ship and enjoyed the warmer weather.

After breakfast we enjoyed some Hot cocoa and played a triva game, Mom Won!

Wesley was a TOTAL social butterfly the whole cruise. He walked up to and talked to anyone who would listen, and many who wouldn't! He was so cute and everyone loved him. Here he is making friends at the trivia game.

later that afternoon we had lunch and spent some time on deck. We watched the festivities, including a "hairy chest contest" and Ice carving.

Grandpa bought Ella a fruity drink in a Coconut monkey head. Ella had been admiring the monkey heads all day. It is also a piggy bank, so we brought it home with us.

Watching Mom and dad was a lot of work...
