Woke up around 7:00am. Dad was out getting coffee for him and soda for me. I got up and ready for the day. Dad came back and we chilled in the room a little and then headed to grab some breakfast. Can't remember what we ate, but it was good. After that we went back to the room to drop off our cups and pick up our things. We then headed out and got a bus to Hollywood Studios. Once there we headed for Toy Story Mania. Took pictures along the way.







We rode Toy Story Mania and then we headed over and rode the great movie ride and then we checked out One Man's Dream place, which was cool.









We walked around after that.





We finally left the park and caught the boat over to Epcot again. I want to grab some lunch in Japan so we headed that way taking pictures along the way.













I grabbed some lunch and dad sat with me. After lunch we did some shopping and the flower and garden booth. After that dad wanted food, so we split up and I went to shop in Japan. Dad had to buy some stuff for my mom in Japan so we met up and then we walked around more and took more pictures.

we stopped and got a margarita.















we then headed to get some free sodas.





After that we left and headed to Magic Kingdom.









We split up since I want to see the parade and dad didn't want to. So dad went off and here are some pictures he took.

 

[DMMarla07860]

and I watched the parade.











I met back up with dad and we went to ride the new little mermaid ride.





After that it was getting close to the time we could check in for dinner and we were near the place so we found a place to sit for a while. We then headed to Be Our Guest to check in.

















Dinner was good, can't remember all we had, but I say if you haven't been try it, good food. And you can get a picture with the beat after.

After dinner we went and rode It's A Small World. Saw some one wearing a Brooklyn Nets hat so I was pumped about seeing that.



We then headed over and rode pirates of the caribbean ride which broke down for a bit while we were in line, it finally got going again. After that we headed to ride The People Mover. I took a picture of the Castle while walking there.



We rode the people mover.



Then we headed to the store to do shopping.



After shopping we headed back to the hotel. Dad went and got us some drinks again. I had forgot lotion at home so day went to the store at the hotel to pick some up, he took some pictures while doing that.







can't remember what we did for the rest of the night, but I think we packed up most of our stuff and called it a night early

Next Up; Cocoa Beach and Boarding The Ship

Woke up around 5:00am, I was too excited to sleep. I mean after all I was going on a cruise for two weeks. Dad wasn't up so I stayed in bed trying to go back to sleep. Dad got up finally and headed out to get us some drinks and he took some pictures.







I got up and got ready. Packed up all my stuff. Dad got back and we headed to grab some breakfast, I took some pictures along the way.













We ate breakfast and then headed back to the room, of course taking pictures along the way.



We packed up our things and got ready and took our stuff to the car.. Before going to the care we took pictures.













We our stuff in the car and then headed to see the cars put of the hotel really fast.







We left the hotel around 8:30. We drove to port which was the same as always long, exciting, and boring. We went to Ron Jon's Surf Shop and I bought a shirt.



After that we walked across the street to CVS and pick up a few things and then went and dropped the car off at budget rental. Today there were not a lot of cruisers in port since Carnival Dream cruise was canceled(sucks for them). We got a shuttle to port pretty fast and were there by 11:00am or so I want to say.

 

[DMMarla07860]

We checked in and then waited around for boarding to start. We took pictures while waiting.







They started boarding and we could get on, we got the boarding picture.



We went the guest services after boarding and booked the Galley Tour for the second sea day. After that we headed to Europa area to book some tastings. Took a few pictures along the way.







We ended up booking Martini, Mixology, Tequlia and Margarita, and beer tastings for this cruise. After that we headed up to deck 11 and headed to Cabanas for lunch. Lunch was great.



After lunch we walked around and took some pictures.











we got some drinks of the day.





We headed to the stateroom at 1:30 when they were ready.

 

[DMMarla07860]

I left my dad in the stateroom so I could go walk around and explore some and take pictures.





DJ Brandon was playing music by the pool so listened there for a little. At 3:00pm went to the disboards meet in the Atrium and met some cool people. At 4:00 my dad and I headed to the life boat drill. we were in the Walt Disney Theatre this time. After that went back to the stateroom to get my bag and then headed up to the Sailing Away Party.



Watched the party and watched us sail out of port as well.















Went back to the stateroom and dropped off a few things and then headed to the Walt Disney Theatre for the first show tonight which was called "A Fantasy Come True". Dad met up with me at the show. After the show I think I went to O'Gills for the first time this cruise to get a bud light and I saw my friend Nyoman so talked to him a little and met Mario who was awesome. At 8:00pm met up with my dad and we got in line for dinner, tonight we were in Animator's Palate. Dinner was good met our servers for the cruise Server was Raquel, Assistant Server was Curtis, and Head Server was Depesh. Our other tablemates weren't at dinner tonight.





After dinner we headed back to the stateroom. We were greeted by this.





We headed to see Match Your Mate at The Tube. It was funny tonight with Sassy. Met David who was the club host tonight, he was nice. Also met Billie and Christina, the best bartenders on the ship. Got a bud light from Billie and listened to the music guest DJ Keeno was spinning. Left The Tube for the night and walked around and took some pictures.





Went up to deck 11 and got a drink and then headed to the stateroom for the night







Don't know what time I passed out, but not long after getting into the stateroom

Next Up: Drinking and Hungover At Sea

the first gift was a castaway club backpack with a key chain and snack inside and the second one was a luggage strap, some blank cards, and a passport holder type thing

I am chiming in. I can't wait to hear what you think about the Fantasy. We will be onboard her in a little over a month and I can't wait.

Woke up around 7:30am. Dad was out getting us drinks and taking some pictures.

















I got ready for the day. Dad got back and we headed up to Cabanas for breakfast. After breakfast went back to the stateroom and brushed my teeth. Left dad, but planned to meet up with him later before Castaway Club reception. I headed to the stores and looked in them for a bit. Then I went and sat out of deck 4 for a while. The Princess Gathering was happening in the Atrium so watched that for a bit.



Met up with my dad and we went to the Castaway Club Reception. Got a picture with Captain Mickey there.







After that went up to the top decks and took a picture or two.





Got some lunch. I got a bacon cheese burger. Headed to see some Jack-Jack's Incredible Diaper Dash.





Headed up to Meridian for the Martini Tasting at 1:00pm which was great, love me some Martini's and Melissa was the bartender who did it and she made some great ones. After that went and got some more food since we had the Mixology Tasting at 3:00pm. So I just walked around till then. Headed to Skyline for the Mixology Tasting which was amazing, Damian was doing it, can't remember the drinks, but they were all great. And my dad made a drink.



After that I was starting to feel the alcohol, so I went and got some ice cream and went back to the room and got ready for Formal Night and Palo Dinner. Went down to the Atrium and got a free drink(like I needed one, but it was free) and took a picture.



Palo Dinner was at 6:00pm, so we headed up to Palo, we checked in and waited to be called in. Our Server came and got us. We had Olivera, who when she first saw me recognized me from Ana's(server we had a few times on the Magic) facebook page. So she turned out to be the best server. Dinner was good, can't remember what we had, but it was amazing and we got pictures at palo.





We said goodbye to Olivera and arranged to have her as a server the next week at Palo Brunch. After dinner headed back to the stateroom



changed into some comfy clothes and then I think headed to see Aladdin. At this point can't really remember, because I was too drunk/hungover to remember. I think I saw the show, but I could have just passed out. I know my dad passed out in the room and I passed out sometime, though I managed to go see Magic Dave adult show in the Walt Disney Theatre at 10:30pm. After his show ended at 11:00. I somehow made my way up to deck 11 for a water and then went to the stateroom and passed out for the night since I wasn't going to The Tube to drink tonight.

Next up Grand Cayman
