Let Them Eat Cake - December 12


My day was like most others until 3pm.  At that time, the dessert extravaganza, "Let Them Eat Cake" started.  There were two stations in the Lido with amazing desserts - one with cakes and the other with cupcakes, cookies, and other sweets.  As the lady behind me in line (yes, there was a long line that went on for over 40 minutes) said, "You would think nobody on board had ever eaten."  


I did as few things as possible to keep weight off my leg to see if that helped.  I also slept wrong last night and had some muscle pain.  I am going to try sleeping sitting up tonight to see if that helps.


Another sea day tomorrow.
