Day on the Deck







Day on the Deck is a fundraiser for Make-A-Wish to raise money for wishes. It is a seven-day cruise that you don’t really go on but you get to see an ice skating show and you get to bid in an auction.
First, we got on the cruise ship and we were so jealous because we couldn’t stay on the ship. You would forget you were on a ship. The ship looked like a mall. When we got on the elevator to get to the ice skating rink (cool right) we were with some people who were staying on the cruise. They said we were so lucky that we didn’t have luggage. I was thinking in my head yah but you actually get to stay on the seven-day mall cruise. When we were in the elevator there was a block bolted into the floor that had the day of the week in case you forgot what day it was.
When we got to the ice-skating rink they were doing a auction for a float out of the new ship called the Oasis. You wouldn’t think you were on a cruise ship, you wouldn’t think you were in a mall, but you would think you were in a town. No kidding. They were also auctioning a kid’s birthday party which two lucky kids ended up with $3000.00 parties on a ship.
After the show we went to the fanciest lunch you would ever see or eat at. There was one floor with about ten tables on it and ten rows on each side. On the second floor there wasn’t middle, just ten tables on each side. It was the same on the third row. We sat on the first floor and where you would go up the fancy stairs to the second and third row, there was a big space where three violinists and a pianist played classical music. The ladies were in really fancy dresses. Then it was time to leave but we couldn’t find the exit. So we asked a worker and he asked our mom if she really wanted to leave. She said she had to not that she really wanted to. We found the exit and left. Meaghan and I still to this day say oh those people are still on that seven day mall cruise and are probably waking up or eating dinner in the three story dining room with the brownie madness which we had with our lunch. The end
