We got back yesterday morning (took an 8:00 a.m. flight). DS started school this morning.
Boy was it raining though yesterday morning at WDW. At least it held off over the weekend for us to enjoy a couple days in the parks before heading home.
Thanks to everyone for the great FE gifts. As always, it was fun playing.
Can't believe a week ago we were sailing into Costa Maya. I have to say, it was our first time there and we loved it. The Caliente was great. We look forward to going back there on one of our upcoming cruises. The beach and water are perfect there.
We used the Cozumel day as a sea day. Everyone was off the ship until about 2:00, which is when we decided to go ashore for a couple things. Up until then, we were literally walking on the AquaDuck. The pools were empty as well.
I think I'm starting to prefer the Western over the Eastern. Most people like the Eastern because it has the extra sea day and they don't care for Cozumel, but doing it the way we did in effect gave us that extra sea day with the bonus of an empty ship. Add that to getting Grand Cayman and now Costa Maya, and it is a great itinerary.
However, for us, it is more about being on the ship, not where it is going. The ports are the added benefit. Just can't wait to sail the Fantasy again.
We had two weeks set for the end of October, beginning of November next year and we added another while on board. Once we know DS's school schedule, we'll pick the week that works best (maybe I can convince Suz into a back-to-back

).
