cruise post #3

With the exception of Grand Cayman, the weather was quite poor (ie: jackets and/or sweaters needed with capris) but we were still entertained!  (We watched the new movie, Tangled, in 3-D!)

My non-swimming girls and my dh braved the chilly water in Cozumel to pet the dolphins.  K is now determined to be a veterinarian of all sorts of animals, including marine animals.

I didn't contemplate all the wardrobe needed for a Disney ship.  I had only packed daytime and evening wear.  I neglected to pack princess and pirate costumes!  We had to rush back after our port stop at Cozumel to assist the crew in stopping the pirates from attacking our ship! We still dressed up for "Pirates Night" ~ and yes, even my dh donned an eye-patch, skull-cap and fake scars!


Disney was wonderfully organized and attentive to detail from the beginning to the end.  From the bus windows being ship portals to the goodbye flags at the end, it was so appreciated!  What a relaxing and magical trip for all!

  2. Sounds like fun. It was still warmer than being at home for certain.

    My friend is a big Disney fan and has been on one cruise before and is going on another this year. She said that she also had a problem figuring out what to wear. She said it was a few days into the cruise before they figured out where the themes were posted. Regardless, she and her family had a great time, too.
