So our letter stated that we should be able to get back on the ship at 10am, so we head over to the desk and they tell us they are not ready yet. So we go back and sit down for a bit. At some point while we were in the terminal I pulled out my laptop and did a few things. Eventually they tell us we can come over and check in.
We had already filled all the paperwork out online before we left for our trip. The cast member quickly processes our paperwork and hands us keys. We inquire about our lanyards and pins for
Castaway Club members and she says I didn't realize you were Castaway Club members.

Uhhh, I just stepped off the Magic an hour ago. She quickly reprints keys for us and gives us the pins and lanyards.
We then head over to the big Mickey head ear doors. A Cast member comes over and goes to let us in and the doors are locked. I don't blame them I would keep those doors locked as well. As we are waiting to get on we here lots of noise. Somebody else brings keys over and opens the doors and let us in. At this point we see people coming up the stairs for the upcoming cruise.
At this point Ann and Howard are still checking in because they did not fill out there forms ahead of time . We hoped they got left on again early. We later found out they did, but they almost didn't let them on because of all the other people arriving in the terminal.
I took advantage of the empty space and took pictures

We headed upstairs to our room. Load up our bags and head to do laundry. Threw our stuff in the washing machines and planned on coming back later. We had spoken with our room steward ahead of time and arranged a time that he could come in and straighten our room. So we went exploring the ship, while staying out of the cast members way.

I sat down somewhere and just relaxed while staying out of the way. We could do lots of things as long as we were out of the way. We went back and put our laundry into the dryer. They had tension barriers at each doorway to the rooms we were told we could go behind them since we had a room full of stuff. Although I felt guilty every time I went behind them. Once everyone else was on board we stayed out, as we didn't want to cause issues, because some people were camping out in front of the barriers??

Why would you sit and wait to get in your room. Boggled my mine.
Once they let other people onboard we headed to Parrot Cay for lunch. All food and beverage service was closed while everyone else was off the ship, as they had to prepare for the next cruise. Putting food in correct places, cooking, etc. So we had to make sure we had eaten and drank enough for the time being.
Oh ya, my legs which were pink last night, were now fire engine red, so sitting on the plastic vinyl covered seats and sticking fast was pretty much torture.
After lunch we head up to the pool and hot tub area. Yes I should have put my suit on as it was totally empty, but I wasn't supposed to go back in my room at this point. Instead I settled for doing this.
More relaxing and sight seeing, this was dead time, there was nothing going on. Couldn't get in my room, it was nice as most people were just arriving and eating or occupying their kids so the adult area on deck 9 was empty.
