Cruise Day Four: Day at Sea

I am not sure why it took us so long but we finally took advantage of room service and ordered our breakfast for this morning last night. It was nice not fighting all the people in the Windjammer and being able to stay comfy in our bed while we enjoyed breakfast. Today was going to
be a very lazy day (even more so than the ones before). We finished our breakfast and then actually went back to sleep for a while. When we woke up again it was about time for lunch so we got up and ready and then headed to the dining room. We were pleasantly surprised to be seated with a couple from our dinner table so we talked to them for quite a while and as we were finishing up our dessert another couple from our dinner table walked in. We saw them walk in so Peter went and grabbed them and made them come sit with us. The waiters weren't too happy about this because they have a system but they didn't give us a hard time, we could just tell from their demeanor. We all sat with them as they ate their lunch and dessert and then we walked to the main lobby and sat in a group to play a game that was about to start. We had to listen to 25 different television theme songs and name the show they went with. We did alright but only got 17 and another group got 21. We had a good time though and it was fun to hear all the answers people came up with. Once that was through Peter and I went back to our room for a quick bit and then came back out and watched the ending of the Q&A session that was held with the magician from last night. We walked around the ship for a while and got a drink. We decided to avoid the pools since we knew most everyone would be there as we were at sea all day. We had a couple free game tokens for the casino because we are Crown and Anchor members so we took our go at that to no avail and then wandered into a lounge. Peter ordered the drink of the day and I took a sip but alcohol is just not my thing I guess because it was not anything I wanted to try
again. We sat at the window and watched the water for a while and then followed some people headed to a place we hadn't explored yet. Turns out there was another room in the back where a bingo game was going to start. We didn't want to play and it wasn't going to be for another 30 minutes or so anyhow so we left and walked around one of the outside decks. I was hoping to see some dolphins like we had on our last cruise but we weren't so lucky. After awhile we headed back to our room to freshen up and get ready for dinner. We enjoyed another great meal with great company and took some pictures of everyone and exchanged contact information. One of the couples headed off but the rest of us (the same two couples from lunch) decided to hang out and play some cards. We learned a new a game and got some drinks and played for a good hour or so until the Farewell show was about to start. We went to the auditorium and found some seats and watched the show. There was another one directly following it but Peter and I had things to do in the room to get ready for our departure tomorrow so we said good bye and good night and turned in for the night.
