We Made It Home!!
Hi everyone! AAshleySEG here with my newest Trip Report. It was our longest vacation ever (17 Days), and we had an absolute blast! If you want to see our really short PTR and find a little more about us, here is the link for you!
Pre-Trip Report
For those of you that have read any of my Trip Reports before, welcome back!! I am so glad that you found me again! If you are new, let me tell you a little about us!
My name is Andrea! My DH Jeremy and I love pretty much everything about Disney! We are Annual Passholders even though we live in North Carolina, DVC members since 2009, our home resort is Disney's Grand Californian! We have been on 4 Disney Cruises, Disney Wonder to Alaska, Disney Dream 5-Night Castaway Cay Double Dip, and the newest ones...the ones this trip report is about...Back to Back 7-Night Western Caribbean Cruises on the Disney Magic! We have also been to Disneyland in California and in Paris!
*A few of the other Trip Reports I have done are in my signature in case you are interested in those as well!
My husband has a very crazy work schedule, so most of the time we end up doing last minute trips, and this time it was no different! A few weeks ago his schedule opened up and I checked on the Disney Cruise Line website and noticed some really great IGT rates for the Disney Magic! We have wanted to go on the Magic since it has been overhauled and we have never been on a cruise to the Western Caribbean either, so it was a win-win situation! We booked them and planned everything as quickly as possible!
I can't wait to get started, just another little FYI, I love taking photos, so there will be tons, I narrowed all the photos I took down to the 400 that will be presented in this report! Hopefully, fingers crossed, at the end of this TR, I will have a recap video of our trip!
