We were invited to attend Fan2Sea, the first Comic Con set on a cruise ship! Alex worked, and the kids and I got to play. So much fun!

| Bye bye, Grandma Jane! |
At the airport, Penny asked me what kind of airplane we would be taking, and I told her that I didn't know. When we arrived at the gate, we saw our pilot checking in, and I told her that he would be a great person to ask. He ended up going onto the plane, getting Penny a card about the 717, and a pair of wings for each kid (*sidenote: 3 years of Classical Greek and it only just occurred to me why Delta's logo is a triangle). He told Penny that he was going to give her a quiz about the 717, and that we should stop by the cockpit on our way onto the plane.

| Milo loved pointing out the window and telling me everything he could see. |

 |
| Since Milo is a pro at cruises, he started asking for ice cream on the way to the airport |
 |
| If you zoom way in, you can see Alex hosting the first event of the cruise! |
 |
| The kids asked me to teach them how to play basketball, and I told them I wasn't sure I was the right person to do that...and then I sunk three free throws in a row. |
 |
| Not how soccer is supposed to work |
 |
| Milo was definitely not allowed in Penny's fold-down-from-the-ceiling-required-a-ladder-to-get-in-there-bed |
 |
| Mini golf is a must on cruises |
 |
| We lost Milo at sea. But then we found him. |
 |
| Between Comic Book Club sets was the one and only performance of the Penny & Milo Show. |

| Milo loved this fish shower by the kids' pool. He also named the hose in our room's shower Hosey, and declared it his new best friend |

 |
| This is how you play shuffleboard, right? |
 |
| If you have any ideas about how Penny can live on a waterslide, she would love to hear them |
Next time, we have to pack some costumes so we can cosplay with everyone! It was a wonderful and much needed vacation, and we hope there's another one soon!
