Disney Magic - post renovations

[NJTrouble]

Here's an odd question....
In 2007 we took our first Disney Cruise.
It was the Magic. It was to Castaway Cay and, quoting my now 27 year old daughter, "It was the best vacation of my life."

17 years later I'm planning to take them again and thinking it would be great to put them in the same room they were in 17 years ago. ;-)

Here's my conundrum.
I recall us being in an oceanview room in 2007. My Disney Cruise folio says that first trip was in cabin 8500. Looking at the bookings today, 8500 is a verandah. My memory is not infallible but I would swear it was oceanview, not verandah. SO, here's the question. The Magic has undergone two renovations since 2007. Could it be that Cabin 8500 was somehow physically converted from oceanview to verandah?

Perhaps. I do know that a lot of the Deck 8 staterooms on the Magic and Wonder have been converted to concierge over the years. My stateroom on the Wonder many years ago during my first cruise was a "regular" verandah room. It's now a concierge verandah room.

Stateroom 8500 on the Magic is in the far fore of the ship. I don’t think verandas have been added during any dry docks. There have been rooms that were reclassified due to limited obstructions, but if your room didn’t have a veranda door on your previous cruise, it is more likely room 8500 was renumbered or that your folio is inaccurate than that the veranda was added.

The rooms changed from Family Veranda to Concierge had interior updates to the furnishings, but to my knowledge the windows and doors weren’t changed.
