7. It is the afternoon of Friday December Seventeenth

Today has been, interesting. I woke up early as usual having gone to bed early as usual despite the fact that I hadn’t watched all of the Return of the King. As it was too early for breakfast I continued watching Return of the King and then Mom and Dad called and I found out that my clock battery was Dad and I could have eaten breakfast two hours ago. So I went to eat breakfast with them. After breakfast we made our way back to the rooms and I forget the exact procedure of events. Or actually I remember now. I finished breakfast before Mom and Dad did and I then proceeded back to my room to continue doing what I had been doing before. Around nine thirty this time Mom wanted to look at the shop specials so we went and looked at them. I’ve seen better shops and this is definitely not an advertisement, paid or otherwise, for the shops on board the Norwegian Wind. After the shops, and after excessive hinting, I went to Mom and Dads room and brought my computer as well as the extended edition of Return of the King. Mom downloaded pictures and Dad and I watched the first disc of the movie, with me using the skip and fast forward buttons as I do not like Gollum or Arwen. You know, not that many people would pick Gollum and Arwen together as their least favorite characters. I just don’t like the story line thing they put in for Arwen. It’s not in the book although I realize they put it in because Arwen is not a major character and is hardly in the story at all except at the end where she marries Aragorn.

But let me cease from this talk about the characters of the movie. After watching most of Disc One we went for lunch in the four seasons restaurant and I had some delicious cream of carrot soup. After that I went back to my room and took a nap. On awakening from my slumber I watched Bugs Bunny cartoons and then feeling the manifestations of hunger within me I traveled from hence to the Buffet where sandwiches of many varieties awaited my consumption. When my hunger was satisfied I returned hence and decided that a post must be written and… I started writing it! So now I’m caught up on current events. Probably later Dad and I will watch Disc Two of the movie. I’ve almost finished cross stitch a picture of a dragon holding a teddy bear. It should be quite cute when it is done.

So far other than writing these posts I haven’t done any other writing on this trip. I hope to remedy that soon. Hopefully when I return I will have a fairly good story written. However first there are some Daffy Duck cartoons that are requiring my attention…
