Back in our stateroom we continued our long time tradition of sitting on our verandah watching all the activities below.
We noticed that there was quite a bit of erosion on the shoreline that hasn't been improved, maybe from the hurricane?
And all too soon we were pulling out of the dock and heading back out to sea.
So the verdict on the cabana question, "is it worth the money?"? If you have that kind of money, then it's worth it. I wouldn't prioritize it over doing excursions in other ports, but we thoroughly enjoyed it and even though Serenity Bay was really quiet and not busy, having our own private space was a really nice special treat.
We watched the island fade into the distance while enjoying a nice cold glass of wine.
We had decided last night that we were going to skip the dining room tonight as the pirate party and fireworks were going to be at 7:30 pm, and we'd given our servers and our table mates the heads-up we wouldn't be there. We took showers and did a quick pixie dust candy distribution to the stateroom hosts on our floor and then went to Beach Blanket for dinner.
We both had the pot stickers, which were good and came out very quickly.
We also made a salad at the salad bar, which was something I didn’t know they had and we really enjoyed that. I would go back just for the chance to make my own salad.
Mine....you should know by now how I can tell.
Scott's...don't be fooled, that's cubes of meat.
Then I had the beef sirloin and Scott had chicken breast.
We decided to skip dessert and went to find OWayne and give him a tip for being our personal chauffeur for the day. After chatting with him for a bit we went to deck 10 to find a spot for the pirate party. It was already pretty crowded and by 7:45 it was absolute packed.
I love the fact that Mickey still zip lines to save the day.
We hadn't seen the fireworks in quite a while so it was fun to watch them. We noticed several small ships/boats out in the distance that seemed like they were out there just to see the fireworks.
It was busy after the fireworks ended with people needing to leave to get to second seating dining as it was just gone 8:15 pm. We went back to our cabin and had an early night.....boring!!
Piedad had left us this....there was a note making sure that everyone knew that all aboard tomorrow was early.
This whole itinerary had been changed so many times, I think even the crew weren't sure where and when we were supposed to be in port! Tomorrow we were due to be in Nassau. Arriving early at 7:30 am but also leaving early - all aboard was 12:15 pm. It made it difficult for people wanting to schedule excursions.
We also had this little guy hanging around. It was cute to get something that wasn't a monkey on Pirate Night.
Neither of us were feeling great, just enough of a cold for both of us to make us under the weather and we hadn't slept well in several days. We watched TV for a little while and both of us fell asleep early.
