Day 2 Castaway Cay
So today we have traveled 231 miles and have 2 to go. We begin our turn to back into our dock at Castaway Cay. The in room TV has a channel that you can watch from the front of the ship. We back in as we head up to Beach Blanket buffet. We arrive and I was just saying that the line was kind of long and was not going to give a good review……. Well they must have heard me because they open the other side and we are in quickly. We hit the buffet and only after we sit down do we see that you can get an omelet made to order at the rear of the ship. That’s ok we know for tomorrow.
The plan is to hit the beach early and then head back to the ship right after lunch as I am not the biggest beach person. We head out right after the announcement is made that we can go ashore. We head to the family beach and find a nice spot. We are next to a hammock and I climb in. I did not sleep too well as I had a hard time going to sleep. Sherrie wants to go snorkeling before the sand gets stirred up. She heads out and I zone out. I wake up and find that it is almost an hour later. Sherrie comes back a little later and we go out in the water...... Nice and the beach has gotten more crowded but not overcrowded. We go eat at Cookies BBQ but they would not let me BBQ as some of you told me… I tried though. Good ribs, big chocolate chip cookies, chips and banana loafs all were good but the burgers not so good. We hang out on the beach for a while longer, remember our plan??? Well I am hot and have had enough and am ready to go back to the ship. I tell Sherrie I am out of here. She says she is coming but is moving slow…… We finally get moving and have to stop to take pictures and I get a few things from the shop on the island. Finally we are at the tram stop and are headed back to the ship. After a shower I am much better and we are going to a DVC meeting. We win a DVC towel and got some other cool gifts from DVC………… membership is good. We do make an appointment for tomorrow morning to see the DVC rep. Amile. They have some great offers so we need to talk tonight about it.
We head back to change for dinner, it is dress up night. I never did see the Captain so I am not sure if we were supposed to or not. We ate at Tritons tonight and it was good but I did opt for the steak since I did not like anything on the menu. Afterwards we go to the new show Toy Story the Musical. Very nice show but I did not like the Sid parts. Too much yelling, not good singing…… Other than that I liked it. We then stopped by Diversions and had 2 of the specials no wings tonight though. Then off to the room to decorate our door for pirate night tomorrow…… In our room we find a towel monkey hanging around.
Just some info…… tonight we could see other cruise ships in the distance and we are only traveling at 6 knots. The ride is very smooth with only .03 to 1.5 wavelets……
Tomorrow Nassau………… But first we have a meeting with DVC….. This trip could get real expensive…… :spend: we shall see….
