Me too!
DYING to know what my vacation days are going to look like. What a lovely lovely evening!
Well I am sure the Mexico cruise would be fabulous. I love all the ports of call! I have been to Mexico and a few of those locations, but never on a cruise ship. I bet you'll be able to get it in!
I'm just going to quote Jackie as well - couldn't have said it any better!!
Yes, well ... I agree...
Everything seems so relaxed & laid back! I can see why the Land & Sea combos are popular! The cruise seems very Disney but in such a different way!
You know, I think so. The cruise allows for onboard care (for kids) so you get adult time and family time, and I think that makes a big difference. I know there were adults in the adult pool area or on the deck above whose kids were in the kids programs, while they snuck in a few hours to relax. There certainly is something for everyone! The cruise ships are very Disney, but you are right, it is different. I almost think you meet more CMs on the ship than you do at a resort or park...
Great review! Can't wait to hear the rest of it. My boyfriend and I and another couple we are friends with are all going on a 3-day
Disney cruise in May--none of us have kids so I love reading about someone else who went on a Disney Cruise without kids
Also, I'm still trying to figure out the Conch Cooler thing. Is it just a mixed drink or does it come in a cool cup or something?
We always plan a few "us only" getaways every year. It is from our love of travel I guess, and it keeps us sane!
But this cruise was a perfect idea and a perfect price. We are doing it again next Feb, for four days over President's Day weekend.
I searched on the DIS and found a recipie I think... it is a blended drink, a little like a pina colada, but with passion fruit and orange juice -- so somewhat like an orange julius??!!
HA! With a little kick. Well, enough of a kick to make me want to take a nap on the beach
Here is what I found when I searched....
6oz. Dark Rum (I use Captain Morgan's)
6oz. Light Rum (I use Parrot Bay)
8oz. Orange Juice (no pulp)
12oz. Passion Fruit Juice (Welches)
8oz. Cream of Coconut (I use Coco Lopez)
2 cups of ice
Mix all in a blender and blend until smooth.
I have not made this, but I am tempted!!!
Castaway Cay looks AMAZING!! Your boys will love it next year!
It really is neat, and I think it will be perfect for us!! OF course DH and I have to try out the Dream FIRST to make sure we get situated before we bring them on a cruise for the first time...
