Food

Day 4 

We always seem to be eating! Ship life is planned between meals. We have fallen into a daily routine already. A tap on our door in the morning means that it’s time to head to the buffet for breakfast.

Finding a table for 6 is usually the most difficult task, then we take turns to supervise children and gather our food. After breakfast the children decide whether to go to the Zone or stay with us. As the weather has been a little disappointing we have explored the ship, found the shops and the library.

We prefer to have lunch in the restaurant, but the others head back to the buffet which is often very crowded at lunchtime.

We have had dinner in the restaurant the past two evenings. At first the children were not too sure whether they would like it. They were pleased that there was a children’s menu, but on the other hand they really wanted to be more grown up. What a dilemma!

Tonight when we arrived in the restaurant, the children were warmly welcomed by the wait staff. Two chairs had cushions. Master G decided he would only order from the adult menu. Apparently the duck was ‘amazingly good’. Miss V and I had the same dessert, so compared the flavours of the ice-cream and sorbet. All in all a successful experience.
