Last Day on the Ship

We tried not to do much on our last day aboard. We relaxed, sat by the pool, took naps, wandered around the ship and packed. I put Ava in her sailor outfit and with her sun-kissed cheeks, she looked like she had a fabulous time on her first big family vacation with us.Jasmine spent the day with her kids club being a pirate and participating in the children's talent show. She had told us she wanted to sing and so we had practiced with her and even told the directors that she would be singing. We arrived at the show and when they announced Jasmine, they said she would be doing a dance. This really disappointed us because Jasmine is a girl with many talents and she hadn't practiced a dance and so she was just winging it like the other little girls her age instead of doing something that would blow the crowd away, like singing one of her songs. We watched her dance and clapped for her but really saw this as one of the first falling into peer pressure situations Jasmine has been in. We are going to have to help her understand that being different and being herself are great things to be.We didn't take any more pictures on our last day because we didn't do anything photo worthy but it was a nice and relaxing day on the ship. We look forward to our cruise next year...
