Hi All! I'm just returning from my Disney vacation! The cast of this trip is my DH (Bob), DD5 (Marissa), and DS3 (Ryan).
You can see my short little Pre-Trip Review here.
The short version is: We booked for January 2013, had to cancel as my Father was dying from cancer and passed away 1/21/13. We got our full trip reimbursed through the travel agent without any problems and rebooked for March 3rd and were able to keep the same excursions (dolphin encounter and snorkeling.) Bob insisted we drive from Kansas to Port Canaveral, so that's exactly what we did!
I tried to sit on the computer every night and type a little journal entry of what we did each day so I could remember everything. I did pretty good at keeping it up, good thing too because when I was a day behind I had trouble remembering the exact order of events!
Here's a few things I would do differently next time:
-I wouldn't ever come home, haha, J/K, I can dream though. I will definitely be booking longer cruise next
time.
-Take an over the shoulder purse! I didn't want to carry around a purse, but I ended up always carrying
around stuff, like the autograph books, next time I will definitely bring a cross body purse!
-Worry less about the kids in the club, they loved it there! I'll spend more time at the adult events, the couple
of these we attended we enjoyed a LOT.
-EARLY dining, we booked late dining because we didn't want to have to hurry back on the ship and to get
ready. The kids were tired by this time, although they did really good.
Here's our story:
One trip to another Day 1 on the Road
Two More Days on the Road
Embarktion Day
Nassau
Castaway Cay
The Cherised Navigators!
