Day 3 - Monday, 10/12 - Afternoon at Sea...
Being a bit tipsy and not sure what to do next, we wandered around the area for a few minutes and realized that they were about to start doing Origami in the Crown & Fin pub next door.
We had wanted to go check out the pub anyway so why not? (Just to see it, not to drink anymore at this point. )
Oh look, a phone booth!
The pub was fairly empty. (It was now about 3pm.)
I'd say that there were about 10 people who showed up for the activity. The instructor was super friendly.
It sure was a lot of folding, but it wasn't difficult to follow along. Eventually, we had our classic cranes ready to show off.
The activity was listed as an hour long in the Navigator, but it probably only lasted about 30 minutes.
"Disney Tunes Trivia" was scheduled for 4pm at the Promenade Lounge, so we planned to head there next. Since we had a few minutes to spare, we stopped to explore the atrium's first floor a bit.
That pumpkin tree is just too darn cool!
And loving the other Halloween decorations too.
It took a little while to figure out what was going on, because every few minutes a princess would come down the stairs… pause for a minute, and then go into Triton's.
It turns out that they were having some sort of tea party for girls inside. I peeked inside the window and it looked really cool. I think you may have had to pay extra for this, but if our youngest daughter had been with us, I bet she would have loved it.
I had my own princess with me. Happy 20 years Stephanie!
Anyway, we spent a few minutes soaking it in before heading on to the trivia.
Here's another 360 degree photo for you to click on…
We arrived for trivia just in time.
Not a whole lot to say about this one. Other than it sounded more fun in theory. They had some technical difficulties at first, so it took a little while to get going. And it turns out, I'm terrible at Disney music trivia, so I wasn't much help to Stephanie. And on the other hand, she's super good at remembering this stuff. And some of it was pretty obscure, where you needed to know the movie (usually easy), the name of the song (the hardest for me), and sometimes the performer (I had no idea on a couple).
We (well Stephanie) got a 46 out of 60. Only a couple teams did better. But they were tables of like 8 or 10 people vs. our table of two (which was essentially one.) Hahaha
It was now about 5pm, so we decided to head up to our rooms and get ready for dinner.
