The next day was fast Sunday. Once a month on fast Sunday, members of the LDS church fast 2 meals or 24 hours. Fasting helps us be closer to God, and we give the money we save from not eating to the church as fast offerings to feed the poor. That morning, we woke up bright and early to go to church. We attended the oldest LDS church building in Orange County and enjoyed hearing the members testify of Christ in their fast and testimony meeting. After church we boarded the Disney wonder. The first thing most folks did after we embarked was to get lunch at the buffet, but we were still fasting. Instead we explored the ship, walking up and down each deck. Since the Wonder has ten decks this kept us busy for quite awhile. At the end of that wonderful first day, we went to bed in our little state room, happy to be on our big adventure.
