The Cruisin’ Beach Family: Day 4

OK… so this cruising thing started catching up with all of us as the winds kept picking up, the waves got higher, and the boat started rocking even more! There were times we couldn’t walk without holding on, and some of us felt the motion a bit too much… Mom finally started feeling better once her Dramamine kicked in, and she introduced Dad to her SeaBands to wear, but it took almost a full day for them to help his stomach out.

Some of us were perfectly fine though and ready to keep eating!

… and the motion didn’t bother everyone…

…especially Captain America!

Maybe it was all the ice creams with Grandpa the kids had that kept them feeling good!

… or all the rides in the glass elevators!

Abby, Emily & Ben wanted to go back to the waterslides on our last day, but the upper decks were closed due to the high winds, so they settled for swimming in the pool. That turned out to be awesome, because with the movement of the ship, the pool turned into a crazy wave pool!

Look at that happiness and those EYELASHES!!!!

Check out how crazy the waves were, and it wasn’t even a wave pool! This was all just from the motion of the boat! No wonder we all felt sick…

Nannie’s last towel animal was an elephant, and Ben got a dinosaur!

Before our last dinner, we enjoyed some time at the arcade together with our cousins! We are all OBSESSED with the claw machine games!
