We had three main goals for the day (according to my younger daughter). She wanted to see a chicken, visit with a six-toed cat, and drink from a coconut. With those goals in mind, we headed out. Our first stop was going to be the Earnest Hemingway House. It is open to the public for tours (for a fee). We left the ship and used Google Maps to guide us. As we turned the corner out of a nearby neighborhood, we spotted this fellow:

This was the second sea day for us on our Very Merrytime Christmas cruise! Everyone was really tired, so we slept in late. The girls eventually got dressed and went off to the Edge and the Vibe. Nancy and I had plans for Palo brunch at 11 am, so we decided to skip breakfast so we wouldn’t be full. We headed up to Cove Cafe for some morning coffee.
Today was day four of our cruise and the ship pulled into Tortola just as we woke up. We had an early excursion for this port, so we had ordered room service for breakfast. Normally we forget to use room service, but we had discussed it a bit the night before our arrival in Tortola. We took our breakfast out onto the veranda to enjoy it and look at the harbor.
After getting on board, we immediately headed up to the pool deck so the girls could ride the AquaDuck. They had worn their swim suits under their clothes, so they were ready to go. They jumped right on and didn’t have to wait at all. The AquaDuck actually loads in the rear funnel of the ship in a small one or two person raft and then takes you over the side and around the top deck. The girls really enjoy riding it. There is another slide as well on the ship that kids can use.
