I am loving the pictures. I agree about the parasailing. That and the Dolphin Encounter were the two highlights of my cruise last December.

 

[Kurby]

ohhhhhh 33 more days to go - i keep looking and day dreaming with these pictures.

can't wait to add my own to this thread

 

[Kurby]

I found this picture in the first closed thread.

does anyone know were to get these hats and how much they are?

 

[tinker1bell]

Ha!

We got that luggage when it went on sale on the Disney Store online.

We got it in Red, Taupe and Grey.

I love the way it swivels and is soo easy to roll in the airports

I got it in the Taupe and I really do love it too. Especially the wheels that swivel

 

[tinker1bell]

I only have me sitting on a lounge chair but found these

That is where I plan to spend a lot of time on my cruise in December!!!!

Ok, my son WANTS to do the parasailing, I think that would be AWESOME. So question for PirateSnowmen, How did you manage to keep a camera dry before and after you were in the sky? I'd love my son to take the camera up there with him, but need to figure out how to keep it ending up in the water.

My camera has a wrist strap and I just kept it tightly secured around my wrist. You don't get wet - unless you asked to get dipped at the end. I got dipped up to my knees, but the camera was perfectly safe. There aren't any sudden movements or anything, so it's easy to keep a tight hold on the camera. My camera did get a few drops of water on it because the harness was wet because a person got dipped up to about her neck (voluntarily). If that hadn't gotten the harness wet, my camera would have never gotten a drop of water on it. So, just to be safe, just make sure you have a wrist/neck strap for your camera and just hold on tight to make sure.

And now my POTD:

Great shot! You took this while parasailing?! Good job! You have a steady hand.

Here is my shot of the Flying Dutchman. I think I took this from one of those paddle boats. My hands were shaking because I was nervous being in deep water. Did I mention that I have a fear of drowning?

 

[TeamTinkerbell]

What great shots! I don't think I've seen any up that close.

 

[GoofyTraci]

Thats what I was thinking. The pictures look great. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Kurby]

what do those paddle boats look like? are they singles or double people?

maybe we should switch our snorkle to the paddle boat.

How close is the snorkel lagoon to the Dutchman? Or is it at all close? How much was the paddle boat rental?

I was thinking the same thing

Starting at the Dock where the Magic and Wonder dock, you have the post office, the marina for the power boats, the flying dutchman, the boat rental beach, the snorkel area and then the family beach.

Here is an overview of Castaway Cay as seen from Topsiders as we were docking.

In this picture, you can see the Magic and the Dutchman. The bouy line seperates the Dutchman from the boat rental beach - you can see a Hoby Cat type sailboat on the far right.

Here's another shot of the flying dutchman
