DCL Picture of the Day - Part 3

Is it free to use the waterslides at castaway cay?

Yes. The only downside is, once you've gone down the slide you must swim back to shore before you can get back in line to go again!

an indoor Adventure's Away party due to rain...

We were on this cruise also! Hated that the rain kept us in for the party...it was soooo crowded! Thanks for posting the pic - my DS found himself as soon as he saw it!

I am sorry to tell you but they have dimantled the Flying Dutchman. but the good news is, is that Disney has said that something will be taking it's place. We just don't exactly know what. Speculations are the Black Pearl. We will find out soon i hope!

WAS is the key word It was the Flying Dutchman frome POC movies. It was worn down by weather and waves over the years so for safety and health reasons, DCL had it dismantled last month. There are rumours another POC ship will be coming to Castaway Cay. Time will tell!

To everyone that takes the time to share their pictures and memories, Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We're taking our first cruise in May and I absolutely cannot wait! Looking at these pictures keeps me sane.

Evad~ Your photos are amazing. They are so beautiful! All of the Castaway Cay shots are so wonderful that I feel like I am already there. You keep me coming back every day. Thank you so much!

I know!! I started at the end of this thread and then I saw all the posts about it being gone. Even if it isn't replaced, we still LOVE Castaway Cay and look forward to our return! Thanks for the info...let us know if hear of a replacement!

THE SHIP IS GONE?????


ohhh i'm so sad to hear that. I was concerned before we took our first cruise in 09 that it may be broken up before we got there but we were lucky enough to be able to see it and it looked FANTASTIC.

soooo perfect

i know it wasn't always there and may be replaced but still won't be the same

Glad you're enjoying all the pics on this thread. I know this thread helped me out a lot when I was planning our first cruise for last October.

It's Definately true that some Character CM's will go out of their way to make children happy. When we were ending our day at Castaway Cay, and arrived at the gangplank, Minnie was there,and was having her last photo of the afternoon with another family. My son wanted to see her, but was extremely shy. He stood off the way side. The photographer had just left, but Minnie was waving him over anyway. He wouldn't go to her. Then she noticed his Pirate Beach Ball (an FE gift that was given to him), and held out her hands to indicate to him to throw the ball to her. Amazingly he did. And they stood there for like 5 minutes, just tossing that ball back and forth (neither of them ever dropped it), then he did stand beside her so I could take a Photo. He was THRILLED that Minie played Catch with him!

Any idea when? We are cuising in March...It would be nice to catch the new ship! I am sad that the Flying Dutchman will be missing from my pictures this time around
