A relaxing day.  A day to sleep, eat, read, gamble and do sudoku puzzles.  And that is what we did.  The casino, as has been the case all week, was not kind, making us cough up another $100, mostly due to my inability to find a game that paid off in even small amounts.  Jett worked the machines three times as much and lost a third of what I did.<\/p>\n<p>While she napped in the afternoon I took a brief tour of the ship, seeing some things that I had not seen before.  The pool, of course, was very crowded. And I found a small pool in the bow that was also very crowded but which featured an odd fat bather statue.  I also wandered through the kids area and was impressed.  The indoor gym was outstanding &#8211; the only indoor gym I have ever seen on a ship.  The kids area also had a small computer room and a cute little bench made entirely of Lego blocks.<\/p>\n<p>I took a few photos of the casino which was kind to us last week but has been cruel this week.  As I mentioned before, it has a smoking section which makes it one of Jett&#8217;s two most favored places on the ship (the Smoking Room being the other).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8547\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8547\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8547\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Lego settee\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8547\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lego settee<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8548\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8548\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8548\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Kids computer room\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201356a-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8548\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kids computer room<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8551\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8551\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8551\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Casino entrance\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201957-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8551\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Casino entrance<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_8549\" style=\"width: 210px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8549\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8549\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Jett at the (anti?) money machine\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.ourwanderyears.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/0214201400_HDR-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8549\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jett at the (anti?) money machine<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Dinner was, again, solo.
