We are back - the cruise was fantastic

We came back yesterday.

Very relaxed holiday this year. The cruise was great and will definately go on another one.

Enjoyed our visits to the Hard Rock Cafe, both in Orlando and the Bahamas

I just love that photo with your ears and the TV. The second cocktail (the blue one was really nice.) We got quite fuzzy afterwards as we walked over to Epcot and had some drinks in the rose and crown and the other countries.

Welcome back :wave: Great photos :goodvibes

What was wrong with the villa at SSR?

[angel659]

Welcome home hun. It was lovely meeting you. :hug:

That cosmo my word was it strong. That had no taste other than pure alchohol. Not thats a bad thing, but I could not drink that. :goodvibes

A great pic of us all. It was certainly hot out there.

Ah, Memories! Castaway Cay (and Jack) look great. Can't wait to get there in January.
Looking forward to reading more from you!

Our first villa was a very long way from Down Town Disney and we like to walk to either Down Town Disney or crossroads most nights. We were advised we could move villa the next day for a fee of $25 which was great and we took up the offer, however the villa was not ready until gone 6 p.m. the next day and it had not been cleaned since the last occupant had vacated with the beds not made up, the old towels on the floor and rubbish still in the bins etc.

Of course it was worth it when we saw the view and the rest of the trip was great but it did spoil our first and second day.

Once again the cruise was great. We hardly saw Kirsty and spent a great day on the adult beach

Michelle, after our cosmo I made an effort to order long drinks as the short ones seemed to have far more alcohol than mixer!

Sue - you mentioned on your post on the DVC boards, that you got room service delivery, is this a new service ?

[TinkTatoo]

Glad you had a great trip and I loved the photo's. We also found the heat too much this trip but it was a lot hotter than it usually is in August

That taught me a lesson. I really liked a mango cosmo I think it was called back at the hotel. I did try a strawberry pina calda at the hotel, but it was horrible. Tasted like very sweet milkshake.

[KayleeUK]

Great pictures Susan :) Are you doing a trippie ?

[florida sun]

Great pictures Susan, really looking forward to hearing all about it:thumbsup2

[jns]

[DisneyJo]

Welcome home Sue, sounds like you had a great time :)

[ariel2007]

Your photo's and holiday look and sound great, looks like you had a fab time :thumbsup2

[mark&sue]

The cosmo was actually better than the skyyberry martini I had the night before at the Turf Club

I had gone for this one as Joh had recommended it on a previous thread, but I found it very strong and once again very sweet.

With regard to a trippie I may do a condensed one as this trip was so laid back (i.e.boring to read!)
