Princesses of the Caribbean P&O Arvia February 2024. Day 5. At Sea

[vampiress88]

Tuesday Day 5

Sea day!
Still up at 6am. Never get a lie in at all. Slow shower and get dressed as I’m not rushing if I don’t have to. We got to breakfast at 7.45. We really are creatures of habit in this household. Scott had bacon with his poached eggs and hash brown just to spice it up a little. Girls had the same. I got a muffin as I wasn’t really feeling it today.

Now we were excited this morning as last night we had spotted a quiz in Brodies that had our name written all over it. A Disney quiz! We went back up to the cabin and got our coffee cups. We made our coffee and went and sat in Brodies for about 9.15, as we were there early we played pool with the girls. The quiz started about 10 am.

We managed to get 19 out of 20 correct. The only one we didn’t know was who wrote Peter Pan. The girls won a golden sticker for this quiz and they were really happy. This is the first time we have ever won a quiz on the cruise ship. Really was a quiz just made for us.

After the quiz, we decided to hang out on the balcony for an hour, deciding what to do with the rest of our day. As it’s so nice on the balcony with the red hot sun we probably could just stay here all day.

At about 12 we decided we were going to go in the pool so we went up a deck and got some pizza and chips for our lunch. the girls played in the pool till about 2 o’clock. They always do love the swimming pools while we are on holiday the best.

In the pool area, there was a full house bingo to songs again and the girls decided to get ice cream as well.

As usual at about 3:30, we went to Brodies to do the jukebox quiz. We love doing that quiz, even though we never win, we did come once close to winning, but that was in December. We do tend to play it a lot at home too with what comes on the radio as we do listen to a lot of music even though none of us can sing or play any.

After getting quite a few pints in Brodies we got showered and ready in nice dresses and we’re down for 6 pm for the photos for the children. We whizzed around all five photo booths really quickly i’m managed to get sat down for dinner by 6.45.

Scott tried the terrine, which is something he’s never had before, and he said it was okay.

I had asparagus and it was horrible, Georgia ate it instead. She does have a knack of eating the random things we try.

Me, Scott and Georgia then had the curry chicken Kyiv which we had last time in December and it was very nice.

Scarlett decided to go for something different for a change and had some kind of fish in a sauce. When it came, it was the most fishiest fish that any of us have ever had and Scarlett hated it.

So I had a little bit of my dinner and then traded with her. I know I should’ve probably just eaten my own dinner and left her to it as we did tell her that she wouldn’t like it but she tried something different for a change, and that’s not like Scarlett at all and I don’t like them two to go hungry. It’s better for me to be.

For pudding we had a cobbler, and it was really nice.

We decided around 8:30 to go up to the clubhouse to see what was on. I think we lasted about 30 minutes in there before we got fed up and wanted to go back to the cabin. As usual, we all got ready for bed talked for a while and were asleep by 10.
