Eat Your Salad! Our WONDERful double dip June '10 UPDATE 10/14

Ooh I like the padded chairs at the adult pool, they didn't have those the last time we were there. Your sea day seemed very relaxing, what it's meant for! Looking forward to hearing the rest of the day.

the padded chairs were so comfy! I could have napped there!

ok so sorry. I just cannot handle photobucket when it is acting up!
ok so I left off with "dress up night"
we got dressed early and went up to take professional pics. The line was shorter than anticipated, so we went out on the deck to take some pictures of our own before heading to dinner.

we were just standing there enjoying the view, and looked who walked out onto the deck!

I got a little annoyed because when he came out, a couple stood up first and took pics with him, and while they did, we stood quietly about 10 feet away, obviously waiting, with cameras in hand. Well, a group of teenagers comes running up screaming PLUTO!! and ran RIGHT in front of us to take pictures...hello!!!! seriously people, gah!
ok moving on...
we got to dinner and ended up sitting next to some friends so that was fun, we chatted all during dinner!

After dinner we went and got some info on rebooking onboard, and thenw ent to the gift shop to get Christmas ornaments. We always get ornaments when we go on vacation, etc. i am obsessed with CHristmas and decorations so it is a must!

There was no show this night, they were showing Prince of Persia, and I had no interest in seeing it. We decided to go walk around the decks a little bit and just relax, it was nice out. We then went to shutters, our pictures were already on there and so we ordered a package to pick up the next morning.
(I will try to take pics of the pics and post them, I dont feel like taking them out of the frames and scanning them lol!)
We went to bed, excited for another day at Castaway Cay, but also sad because we knew Castaway Cay again meant our cruise was coming to a close. :o(

Heather, I love your tr. You are so lucky to have enjoyed a cruise with your parents. My mom is afraid of water/being on a boat!

That is too funny about the salad!!

Your dress is really pretty! You guys look great. I love that people dress up on the cruise. I miss that time period when people dressed up more often!

That boat is just so pretty! I loved our cruises and I can't wait to be on the Dream. Your TR is getting me excited for it, even though it is 16 months away!
 
Yay!!! Your dress up pictures were worth waiting for, you guys looked so smart:thumbsup2
Can't wait for another CC day:thumbsup2

we leave for Disney today, get there tomorrow, so no updates next week, sorry! I will be posting updates from twitter so you can go to my blog link in my siggy and fllow me on twitter or join my FB fan pages and I will be updating during our trip!
 
Ahhh! I just read through your whole trip report... I *need* more! lol. I am very interested in going on DCL, but my boyfriend thinks it will be too "kid-ish"......... from what I can tell you seemed to have a GREAT time hitting up mostly the adults only areas. Hoping I can talk him into going! Looking forward to more! :)
 
Hi Heather,

LOVED your report & pics!

Have 1 question....where did you get your shirts done/designed? I am looking to do something exactly like that for my hubby, kids & I. We wanted to make up special shirts, but nothing too crazy & I like that yours were very simply done, but super cute!

:goodvibes Rachael
 
HELLO ALL! I am BACK from disneyworld, we had a BLAST! I will prob do a TR after this one is done!!!

I had someone on the creative designs board do the names for me and one of them also had that cruise pic I sued for the back, then I printed them on iron on transfers and ironed them onto white shirts, wala!!!
 
Great TR! You've really got me in the mood for our cruise in December! You've also convinced me that we need to do custom shirts (as usual--but I was thinking of skipping it this time.)

haha! the shirts got us in an earlier boarding group so they came in handy!

more coming up!
 
we woke up pulling back into castaway cay! We were oing to run the 5k this morning so we had to eat and be at the gangway righ when people got off the ship to run with the group. I ate a VERY light breakfast since we were about to run.

on our way back in we passed my parents going out to the beach so of course my mom cheered and screamed for us to keep running lol! People probbaly thought she was crazy.

fair warning, the trail is longer than a 5k, and in June, wow, so hot! When we got back to the ship the guy in charge gave us water, a towel, and a cool DCL water bottle for participating, score!

we hung out at the beach, ate lunch, went back to our chairs and some dark clouds appeared. Mom and dad went back to the boat but we stayed another 30 minutes or so

Running that 5k just wiped me out, I was so tired! I think we went back and took a nap before dinner.
We were back in Animators again for dinner, and we found out we would have to come to breakfast at 6:30!!! ug!

after dinner we went to the Disney Dreams show, oh I LOVED it, I of course cried at the end, it was so cute!

we said goodbye to our new DIS friends after, and took a picture

we were pretty tired as usual, so I am pretty sure Bobby went and got more pizza and we walked around the top of the ship again, and then went o bed since we had to get up so early the next morning!

up next: goodbye ship, hello Wilderness Lodge
 
Sounds like a great last day, looks like you and Bobby both got some sun that day!

Also glad to hear your WDW trip was great, looking forward to that TR.
