2 DISNEY ships together in 1 PORT!... PIRATE NIGHT w/pictures!

[dizzi]

Had to attend my DDs wedding......
But now i am back and ready to relive the great days of our cruise!!!!!

After i finally, stopped looking at the wonderful view.

I got the kids up and ready to go on our UNDER 2 FLAGS TOUR!

Bottom bunk

top bunk

The tour was OKAY!

We wouldnt not do it again, but it was okay.

It was a Bus tour and we did see ALOT of the Island.
The views were very pretty but
The kids were very bored!

View from top of mountain!


We had the option of getting off in town to shop or heading back to the bus... We got off and shopped....

scene from shopping area

We enjoyed shopping in the city ALOT and then as we headed back to the ship we walked past the beach and wished we had brought some bathing suits and towels but we didnt so we just took some pictures got on the water taxi and headed back to the ship!

We had a great time in ST Marteen, it WAS SO SO BEAUTIFUL

NEXT UP..........PIRATE NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[dizzi]

There are PIRATES among us!
And alot of them!

having gotten into the swing of things My Ds was no where to be found when it was time to get ready for Pirate night!

So myself, Dh and Dd got ready and i layed DS items out for him on bed....which became the thing to do for the rest of the cruise!

At first we had said we were not going to go to dinner because we had late seating but we decided to becasue we wanted to see what special things there were for us at dinner. besides we are both busy bodies and could not stand to not be with everyone else from our table that evening!

SO we got ready and headed up to get some pictures taken!
This was a very fun night!

We saw a PIRATE game show getting ready to start and we joined in, thought we would have some fun......
And DD and i were chosen to go upfront and be team captains for the game.

Game Hosts!

getting ready to play.

we lost but the game was still fun! I tried hard to win "for the kids" of course!

After the game we went in search of soem picture taking opportunities, and we ran into our GREAT TABLE MATES.......Here is us and 2 of them aarggh

We also found our friend MICKEY!

We headed off to dinner and REALLLLY enjoyed the theming and we are glad we went to the dinner and did not skip it.

FINALLy our son showed up in his pirate garb!

Ater dinner we went to the PIRATE PARTy and even having went to the late seating i was very pleased with the place we stood for the show! and party!

WOW MICKEY sure knows how to put on a great party!
We partied hard till almost everyone was gone!
What a great night!

Makes me want to say ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[dizzi]

St thomas we had to get up early for costums...........YUCK! my kids we non to happy about this!

My Ds waiting to get into customs!
YEAH WAY TOO MUCH PARTYING!!!!!

We got through and in just enough time to get to our cabin grab our stuff and head to our spot for our tour. We did the open air bus tour. yes another bus tour kids.....SORRY NEXT TIME WE WILL KNOW BETTER!!!

We did see alot of pretty things and a lot of great views of the ship. But this tour again is not meant for teen agers! OLDER folks and people with young kids, it is nice. MY teens were about fit to be tied by the end!

We did go up the side of the mountain, that is the best view of them all. But it isnt the greatest shops or anything up there, so we took some pictures and headed back to the ship! Hind sight 20/20 i wish i had taken the kids back to the ship first and spent some alone time!

Tram you ride up the mountain in.

View from the top

We had a great day and the perfect end tot eh day was our most favorite towel shape of the whole cruise!

 

[dizzi]

of course we are not niave enough to think we were the only ones.....
But we got a personal invite to come and hear about the DVC. So we went.

We had been once before but on land and we were a bit interested then, but not 100% convinced.

We listed and watched and were not still 100% convicned.

We mulled it over..........
We thought about it all day............

We made an appointment to talk to someone.................
Gosh i am too dizzi still inside that i dont know if i can sit still long enough to listen and know what i want to do.

We cancel the appointment................

We talk about it more...............
We make another appoinment

We go.......
we listen

WE PURCHASE DVC!!!!!!!!!!

 

[dizzi]

Okay it is getting BAD!
The waves a hugetamungous!!!!!!! yeah that is a word!

And i am getting sick and scared and oh my GOSH!!!!!!

So we already think we will not be hitting Castaway Cay.....and the dude wakes us up at like 5am to say fer sure not going to happen, and that we can make our way down to the desk and we can get in on some good tours for Nassua which is were will be going instead of CASTAWAY CAY.

So i for soem reason just grab my key card and head down, RIGHT OUT OF BED............HAIR A MESS, in my PJs oh i wish i had my camera.....i was the second person in line, i was so asleep i really didnt even know what i got until i got back tot he room!

BUT i was soooooooooo glad i didnt wait when i was done and turned around to get out of line there must have been oh 75 people in line....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH i beat you to the front of line. i did the happy dance all the way back to the room!


We went to get breakfast and in the distance i saw another ship, again wish i had my camera, it was the WONDER!!!!!! And for the longest time i kept it to myself for fear my family woudl think i was nuts.....BUT for sure it was the WONDER!!!!! VERY COOL TO see them in port together!

This was our favorite stop! We wished for CC but this wasnt so bad.
We swam we ate and it was very pretty! So we were upset but not so bad.

Great photos! I love the one of your DS at the customs gathering - he looks so happy to be there! I'm sure my kids would be exactly the same - especially after a late night out with the pirates!

WE PURCHASE DVC!!!!!!!!!!

HAHA, I know the feeling...in 98, on our honeymoon, my wife went to the DVC meeting on board. Afterwards, she tried to convince me to join. Me, being the sensible one, said no, not going to buy a timeshare (been to some of those hard sell things, ya know?).

In 2003, our next cruise, I was informed I would be going to the DVC meeting.

"Yes dear."

We bought.

To this day, I feel like such an idiot for not buying in 98.

Welcome to the DVC!!!

 

[dizzi]

OHHHHHHH i wish we had purchased years ago too!
at least we are still young enough to get a good many years of use out of it!
