We ran across Deb Wills, who had recently completed her popular parasailing meet — she said it was a success! Congrats to all who parasailed (we’ve yet to try it ourselves).

This is the welcome sight that greeted us outside our stateroom this morning. Alexander was so excited to see a real pirate ship he tried to climb the chairs for a better view — thankfully the chairs aren’t high enough, but it did give ME my own brand of excitement when I saw him attempt it.
