Day 6 - The Inside Passage

I woke up early again this morning and tried to get some more work done before the day got too crazy. Unfortunately, the Internet was not cooperating and the NCL internet ‘expert’ insisted that there was something wrong with my Internet Browser and insisted that it needed to be re-installed. Ugh – not very impressed with the technical staff. She finally figured out that there was an issue on their side and gave me 30 minutes free of internet usage – which I quickly used up for the office.

Mom and I went next door to the private Courtyard and ordered a nice breakfast next to the little pool. The courtyard has a glass enclosure and is kept nice and warm. Peyton was able to run between the room and our table which gave us both what we wanted. Peyton got to watch the Clone Wars on TV while Mom and I enjoyed a quiet breakfast. Afterwards, Peyton begged us to go to the kids club and I went back to the room so I could finish up with work.

Mom got Peyton in the early afternoon and we went to play the Wii on the huge 2 story screen they had set up. Peyton loves to beat me in Boxing on Wii sports! He was laughing the entire time! There is a great place for a quick bite right next to the screen and there was a nice selection of ‘comfort food’ for us to choose from.

We let Peyton go back to the kid’s club in the afternoon while I gambled a little at video poker and Mom watched a movie. We both took long naps and then got Peyton for dinner. We had reservations at Cagney’s and Peyton got some chicken fingers delivered to the room. Again, he begged us to go back to the kid’s club and Mom and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the steak place – Cagney’s. The food was very good – crab cakes, lobster bisque, filet mignon… delicious!

Once we were fully sated, I headed back to play a little more video poker and Mom went back to the room. I cashed out when I was up about $35 and went back to the room to change for a workout. Way too much relaxing/eating and not enough exercise was making me really sluggish. I had a great 3 mile run and then I headed back to get Peyton. He was FINALLY ready to go back to the room! I finished up the rest of my tasks for work and drifted off to bed.
