We had a slow start again. At about 8.30 there was an announcement shipwide for the medical response team to go to the restaurant. Hope that’s not a sign of food poisoning! After a quick shower we went down to eat.

After breakfast we watched a fruit and vegetable carving demonstration and had a coffee/hot chocolate. It was amazing to see them use skewers to stick bits of food together to create a bunny rabbit or bird. We then did our teeth and went up to deck 14 to watch the ice carving demonstration. Again, just mind blowing. We had no idea what they were making until the presented it to us. The level of detail was superb!

We wandered around to kill some time, and went to the gym to spend 15 minutes on the treadmill as we couldn’t walk deck 7. We then went to watch the game show “In it to win it”. I put my name down but didn’t get drawn out. But it entertained us for a bit. By the time it was over we were ready for a late lunch so got something light, and then back for a swing and jive class! Again the class was fun but they tried teaching too much so we could never get the hang of any steps.

We went back to the Piazza for some dessert and hot chocolate, and chilled a bit. Before we knew it, it was time for 4.00 trivia. So we got a seat for everybody and once again didn’t go too well. Then to our usual routine of a drink in Mum and Dad’s suite, and then dinner. We were sent to level 6 as the restaurant on level 5 didn’t have a table for 6 (David and Izzy were off with their friends). Dessert also entailed Baileys for Dad and I, and Lemonchello for the ladies. We then went to the music trivia to see if we could clean up again. We missed a couple this time though.

We had taken some wine which was empty by the end of the game. So I ordered Tokyo Iced Teas for Dad and I. Julie and Mum were dancing but by the time Julie was off she wanted one too.

We then went to see “The Juggler” – another performer. Kaoru was tired so missed out. Mum decided to get in on the Tokyo Iced Tea action. Julie had to go and get Ethan so she missed the first half. He was an amazing performer and we were all in stitches as he was comical as well as entertaining.

After the show I went and got a camomile tea and read a chapter of my book on the balcony.
