So we are on the bus. First we are supposed to make a grocery store run. We drive around and do not find the store, turn around and drive some more. Turns out we had the wrong address. We had 915 and the address was 9150. Or a similar number. The address had us way far away from where we were supposed to be. We ended up finding the store. After a quick stop, we hit the road again to the port. After about 45 minutes we arrive. I think it was about 10:15am.
Now I was not smart enough to keep a camera out with me on the bus. I should have known better. So my pictures start again once we are at the port.
We later find out that we were one of the first busses to arrive. Some of the others did not stop at a store. Or their was confusion about if the bus was for them. Even the others that were left at the stop we got on at. Got there awhile after we did.
So we unloaded the bus. Told the porters to take our bags and then headed inside.
A touch of Disney decoration
We rode the elevator upstairs with a port employee as our escort.
We got in line to check in at the Port
Before long we were checked in. They forgot to give us our
Castaway Club lanyards, so Stephen ran back for some.
We were number 13, I was hoping that it was not bad like as so many are superstitious of the number. I am not. Although I could not believe how high the number was. It appeared that as we waited they were putting smaller amounts of people in each group then at Port Canaveral
The port at Los Angeles was divided into two sections, you had to go into the second section to board the ship. But people could sit over on the 2nd side. We tried to get over to the other side. But it was full, so we had to sit on side the elevator and escalators unload to. So we sat on that side for a period of time.
We found out that some bags were just left on the curb, from our bus if a porter was not told to claim them. Although everyone did get their bags.
Eventually we moved to the other side of the building. They had a few activities going on this side. There was a band, kids activities, and characters.
We got in line for Mickey as the line was short. I am not one to spend time in character lines. But while waiting in the port I have nothing else really to do.
At this port you board on deck 4
Before long we were on the ship and they announced our names. We were finally on the Magic despite all the craziness. It was odd getting on the 4th deck instead of the third.
He was absolutely amazed. My FIL is not allowed in the kitchen. He grills the meat but that is all he is allowed to do.
Mostly all work related, but not all but their is something on my schedule. I am thinking about just going away even though I have lots to do.
Your posts seem so unhappy ever since you started your current position. Would finding a new job help or do you need a complete change? You certainly seem most happy when you are on vacation, which I guess could be said for all of us
