The celebrations begin.

Today was another day at sea. We had a light breakfast as we had agreed to have a formal lunch today. We hadn't done this yet this holiday and we have been missing out. I had a salad to start, lasagne and fries for main and a salted caramel and chocolate desert (which I was too full to eat). We then had a few hours making the most of the sun before Stu headed to the flo rider to do a bit more surfing while I headed to the bar with Mom, Dad and Gord.  
Dinner tonight was in American Icon and I had been looking forward to having the ribs all week. Unfortunately they changed the menu which I was not happy about. They redeem themselves though by giving us free champagne (not that impressive as we have all inclusive drinks package) and also put a candle in a second desert and sang happy birthday to Gem (it's not her birthday yet but it would be in the uk). They  also mad her a hat out of napkins - it was too funny.  I would have died of embarrassment but she loved it.  
After dinner we went to see a comedian, had a few drinks and then headed to the casino. I gambled for the first time this holiday and lost $20 in less than 2 minutes.  I clearly don't have the same luck as Gem.
