The post about Days 2 and 3 of the Epic Caribbean Vacation of Awesomeness. We started day 2 of the vacation by hitting the pool deck. There were 3 water slides, a kiddie wading pool, and a bigger pool. You can see the kiddie pool and all three water slides here. There's a purple one, a green one, and the yellow one affectionately known as the "toilet bowl."
I apparently should have brought a plunger with me because I got stuck in the toilet. It was fun, though. You get some momentum and then you circle the orange and yellow bowl part and then you're supposed to go down the rest of the slide. I circled a few more times than I was meant to and lost my momentum, however, I paddled my way over to the hole and finished it out. I'm sure the people waiting at the top were amused by the show. Thankfully, nobody at the bottom could see!
That night, we went to Cirque Dreams and Dinner. We were impressed the night prior with everything that Blue Man Group was able to do on a moving stage. We were even more impressed with the Cirque performers. It was a fantastic show.

We found this cute little critter on our bed when we got back to the room. Our steward, Manuel, was a rock star with the towel animals. He gave Craig, Jessie, and me a different animal than mom and dad and Larren and Amberly so we could see more variety. It was a fun surprise to come back to the room each night and see what little animal was waiting for us. This little elephant is sporting my shades. He has great taste, no?
Day 3 was more of what we did on Day 2 which was eat food, explore the ship, relax on the pool deck, eat food, read books, eat food, play games, and eat more food. We went to a comedy show that night. It wasn't as great as we had hoped it would be and it was kind of a letdown after the amazing performances we had seen both nights prior. It was still alright, though! After the show, Jessie, Craig, and I learned some pinochle at the hands of the master. Manuel made us a stellar towel bunny. We tried to get to bed kind of early because Day 4 brought our first stop and shore excursion in beautiful St. Maarten!
This is what the bunk bed looked like pulled down from the ceiling. Not too shabby.

We spent a lot of time playing games. Dad taught us how to play pinochle.
