Hey guys, I'm glad you found me! We're under a 6 month countdown now!

 

[Shannononanon]

so exciting! and we are on board for the FE fun as well

 

[tinkerbelx]

So does anyone have any recomendations for me as far things to do on the islands with a 18 month old?

Hmm, OK, here's what comes to mind, these aren't Disney excursions, just outings you can do with your munchkin...

Key West - Take the trolley, if you don't go through Disney it's basically a HoHo (Hop-on-Hop-off) bus, it'll run from the southern-most point all the way back to the top of the main drag in Key West. You can see the point, stop at the butterfly pavilion, maybe get a key lime pie pop, just see the sights, there's a ton for the little guys to see. They do have an aquarium, but I haven't been there so can't say if it's good or bad.

Cozumel - Chakanab, hands down, you can look at the dolphins, go swimming in the pool, play on the beach, it's cheap to take a cab there and back, super easy.

Grand Caymen - I haven't been there, but some friends who've done a DCL cruise with us have, they said the turtle farm was pretty neat. Again, really cheap to grab a cab there, and back.

Castaway Cay - obviously, Beach Day!!!!

My kids loved the key lime pops! The salsa sounds pretty good too!

Taking the west by Magic - truth be told I almost typed " Takin' thee West by Magic Ahrrrrr" I was wondering how a Pirate would say it

I can just picture Geoffrey Rush saying that too!

We are currently booked on a Dream B2B for this week but decided this morning to jump ship to the Magic. My husband hates crowds plus we love the intimacy of the classic ships. I need to talk to Disney today and gets us changed. We definitely want to participate in the FE. We have cruised the Magic once and the Wonder twice. It will be me (Jane), my husband Greg, and my 2 sons ages 12 and 8. My 12 year old will be celebrating his 13th birthday on October 18. We can't wait. We have been waiting 2 years to cruise again!
