Spring Break 2024 - Royal Caribbean Cruise Day 6 (Day At Sea)

 We had two full days at sea to relax and explore the massive ship.  Although we were disappointed that we couldn't go to Haiti, at least we could get a little vitamin D before heading back to chilly and gray Massachusetts!


We woke up to see... Cuba!  Since this is probably the closest we will ever get to it, we snapped a lot of pictures!


Todd went to the gym and I went to go get some coffee. They had a little parade marching through the Windjammer Cafe, handing out balloon swords to the kids. I'm sure that will be fiiiiiine...


I legit stole this from the RC Oasis of the Seas Facebook page for a couple of reasons. One, because we are in the background behind this guy having breakfast at Johnny Rockets. And two, because this famous guy is Super Mario!  Mario Salcedo has been living on Royal Caribbean ships since 2000!  He has a condo in Miami that he goes to for about two weeks a year to go to doctor's appointments, pay bills, etc. But he mostly lives on the ships, and pays about $82,000 a year to live in an interior room!


At one point, Natalie and Grant attempted to play some ping pong but it was just too windy!


So we did what we did best.  Drank cocktails/mocktails by the pool!


Today's towel animal in our room was a monkey!


How hilarious is this photo. Not because we were secretly taking a selfie of us with Pely, the world's most amazing waiter.  But because I literally went from breakfast to dinner without actually taking any pictures! What? Who AM I EVEN?


Pely helped my mom with her lobster because it was lobbie night and those suckers were hard to shuck!


I believe Todd ate 4 lobsters on this particular night.


And dessert was a fantastic baked Alaska!


After dinner, we went to catch the Frozen in Time ice skating show!


We had great second row seats!


This show was so good - I think it was my favorite!  It told several stories by Hans Christian Andersen and I just couldn't believe how they could skate like that on a moving ship.  Plus, the rink was VERY small so it looked like it was hard for them to get momentum to do the jumps.  Here we have the Snow Queen (you know her now as Elsa!) 


This guy was super cool. I imagine I would get super dizzy doing this one.


Oh Little Mermaid, where is Prince Eric?


Oh good, you found him! Or he found you?


On a moving cruise ship. On a tiny ice rink. So impressive!


This Emperor was actually kind of adorable.


Here he is getting fitted for his new clothes!


This couple was the best of the night! He was so strong and they made it look effortless.  They did some unique jumps and other things as well.


We can't forget the tale of the Ugly Duckling! OK, these things are actually kind of creepy.


At the end, all of the skaters came out for a grand finale sort of song and dance.  This was really a super cute show!

Ahhhh, another relaxing and fun day at sea tomorrow!
