I am so happy to report that our cruise this year was as good if not better than last year. The major reason it was better was NO NORWALK!!! We were on the first boat last year where folks got sick and I was so nervous because I was one who ended up sick that week. We washed, washed, washed all the time. It was apparent that Disney made changes to make folks aware of the need to wash, wash, wash. They had signs to wash hands everywhere. We had the pleasure of dining with Ms. Ann Morin and family. We had a lovely time with them. My only regret, if you can call it that, to the whole trip was not enough time by the pool reading. There was so much activity that we wanted to participate in that it was hard to choose. We loved Freddy Fusion not sure if he will be on other cruises, he said this was a try out week for him and if he went well Disney would ask him back. I thought he was great!!! My son, who got called up on stage the first night to have tp blown at him, can't stop talking about him. The golden mickeys was good, what we saw of it. Sadly, due to technical difficulties we did not see the end. They did run it again the next day by we had wine tasting reses so could not go. The other shows were all great. We continue to love Hercules, they seem to update it with current events humor. They could loose the Kathy Lee Gifford reference though. Great weather overall, Castaway Cay soooooooooo cold, sadly. Last year we had rain though so at least we got to be on the island, just should have brought snow pants!!!!! lots of other things awesome as usual - Kristof at Palo the best, Kara the cruise director was great, our servers not as good as last year but still a good team and our room host left a bit to be desired. We were always last on his list to clean. Got a little frustrating towards the end of the week. All in all though another great cruise with Disney. The topper for me was the hassle free disembarktion. Last year getting off the boat was a nightmare due to Norwalk, people loosing it everywhere and not a crew member to be found, despite repeated calls to guest services. Yes, I addressed this to Disney, just so thankful it did not happen again!!!! Here's to a great cruise for everyone yet to go!!!!!!
