Last Day

Breakfast at Luminae was great and after we went back to the room I decided it was nice enough to keep myself in our room today - or out on our balcony - once the sun moved high enough in the sky, we had some nice shade and a great view, so I stayed there most of the day.  We even decided to order room service lunch, which was pretty good.

We finished packing (note to self, don't bring so much crap next time, you don't wear half of it anyway and they have laundry service....!) and went to check out the status of the Martini Bar - where they were pouring fancy multiples like it was going out of style (where has this been the whole cruise?) they poured a 12 when we showed up, and about 30 minutes later (after getting run over by an old lady who decided that SHE should sit in the seat I was just pulling out to sit down) they poured a 36 (2x18) which got mostly in the glasses.    So that's pretty good.

Headed down for our last dinner at Luminae (sad) but ended the evening with a birthday cake for Chris - yes, it's not until Tuesday, but I went to ask for the Black Forest cake recipe from the previous night (since he at it all) they offered to make him a cake (awesome)

WOW.  That was the cake.  We each had a piece and then asked the staff to eat the rest of it, because I'm not taking it home!!!   I have the recipe too, so I'll try and figure out how to make it....

The one odd thing was we weren't switching our clocks back to EST until this last night, which I thought was weird but now think was brilliant - it give you one more hour to sleep before you get off.  We went to bed about 11 (so really, 10) and didn't have to be out of the room until 8am!!!
