Part 9 Day 4 Morning
Wow.
Just when we thought it couldnt get better, we wake up again to the sound of a change in the engines, and open our curtain to this.
Castaway Cay I have read so much about it and seen so many photos, but nothing really does it justice. I mean, look at how you can see through the water to the FLOOR as we pulled in:
No photos of first breakfast we were sorta lost in the moment. But heres another superfluous shot of second breakfast.
With all that great food, DW still loves bananas with peanut butter.
Cabanas was busier earlier this morning.
So we disembark and everything was SO easy. It was a beautiful day.
People like Hook & Smee and Captain Jack were just hangin.
At both ports, they were painting. Is this normal?
We board the tram (still decorated for Christmas) and head directly to Serenity Bay.
Throughout the island, there is some kind of a musical soundtrack or live music in the background. When we got to Serenity Bay, it was completely quiet. This is the entrance to paradise!
And these photos dont do it justice:
OK I dont get the cabanas. Ive seen how much they are, and really???
I put on my shorty wetsuit, and ventured out.
Lets just say you can walk a long way out then swim a little and then walk even farther.
Captain Jack came by mumbling something about a baptismal font
We moved our chairs out into the water to catch some rays there was NO surf out this morning.
DW found some shells and sponges along the shore. There are multiple signs saying that shells were not permitted to leave the island, but sure enough, when going back on the ship, security was confiscating numerous peoples attempt to bend the rules.
I've hit my photo limit more soon!

We've been on quite a few Disney cruises but have our first for just my husband and I planned for our 20th anniversary, so I'm enjoying reading a report from someone who also did DCL without kids. Keep it coming!
I'd ship you some Oklahoma Joe's, but I'm not sure it would be very good by the time you'd get it. We could trade.....I'll ship you some bbq, and you ship me some snow and ski slopes for my DH.
It's a small world after all.
