I woke up around 6:30 again this morning and sat out on the verandah to read for a while. We had decided that we were going to get breakfast in Lumiere's because Nikki had seen peanut butter and jelly crepes on their breakfast menu when we took the galley tour. I knew that we were going to have to get the girls up around 8:30 so that we could get there around 9 as we had planned. Nikki brought the newspaper out to me after I had been out there for a while and we watched the ocean.
Nikki got in the shower and I got the girls up. After getting ready and planning out our day, we headed down to Lumiere's. Breakfast was good. We sat in the same table as yesterday and, had the same server.
Once we finished breakfast we still had a little time before our activities began so the four of us walked around the promenade deck and then sat on some deck chairs.
Then Nikki and I went to a cooking demonstration by Michael Jordan, the Sommelier from Nappa Rose and also by Christine Weissman, the Executive Chef for the Disney Cruise Line. They made tacos.
One was a crispy fish taco and the other was a duck confit taco. We got to try one of each. While we were in the demonstration, Regan took a bath and Kelsie went to Ocean Quest.
Right afterward, it was time for a presentation by a Panama Canal Pilot named Captain Ken Puckett. He talked about the canal and tomorrow's events as we go through. He talked about the construction and the functioning of the canal. It takes 52 million gallons of fresh water per ship to go across the Panama Canal. It really is a pretty exciting thing that we to get to experience. They anticipate us getting to the canal around 6:00 tomorrow and start going through the locks around 8:30. We should be out the other side around 6:30 pm. This was a family show so the girls joined us for it.
It was then time for lunch so we grabbed something quick from the poolside options and ate before heading to our family craft activity where we made mouse pads. None of us had much success with the glue so they will probably have to be fixed once we get home.
It was then time to split
up. Regan and Kelsie went to swim at Goofy's pool then Regan wanted to see National Treasure 2 and Kelsie had an activity in Ocean Quest. Nikki and I went to sit by Quite Cove pool and then out on deck for where we could still be outside but not in the sun.
We then headed back to the room to get cleaned up from the day and ready for dinner. We were in Animator's Palate tonight and it was a semi-formal night. It was a Princess Themed Dinner and the show was Twice Charmed: An Original Twist on the Cinderella Story.
Before dinner we had photos with Sorcerer Mickey, Princess Minnie and some portraits. After dinner we went to see "A Pirates Life For Me" game show and then had our photo taken with Snow White before the show.
Kelsie opted to skip the show and go to Ocean Quest. After the show Regan, Nikki and I walked around the promenade deck before Regan left to go to the Stack just as Kelsie was coming back to the room.
Tomorrow we go through the Panama Canal!
