Fantasy Maiden Voyage ~ Adventures of Stateroom 9577

[wendym]

I'm well used to planning - you should see running backwards and forwards planning the easiest routes for my mum! Just to give her more energy for things like the Aquaduck!! Last cruise I actually walked round Deck 9 to see the easiest room to be close to an elevator and adult pool area!
Thank you again
Wendy

I heard that Fantasy learned from the Dream about the Champagne glasses! This time around they put the maiden champagne glasses inside the cabins and gave out plastic glasses at the Sail Away Party!

Dining Rotation ~~ Our Dining Rotation was Royal Palace, Animator's Palate, Enchanted Garden. Formal night was while we ate at Animator's Palate....

My Favorite restaurant was Enchanted Garden...

Loved the entertainment during Animator's Palate....


Captain's Picture!

During the show at Animator's Palate, you are given a paper to draw a character.... and then they put on a show!

The food was excellent!

Subbing in!

I'm sorry you cannot see the pictures... I can still see them... So I'm not sure what is wrong.

Whoops... my fault. Seeing them fine now, but on computer at home. My computer at work blocked them; the filter there is unpredictable and I forgot about it.

Again great TR. thanks

Looking fwd to reading your report!

Can't wait to hear more. We're leaving on June 23th. Never been to these ports before so it'll be great to get a head's up before we leave.

Hurry...Hurry... I'm a tad impatient!!!

Where are the smoking areas, you may wonder??? Let me share with you what I saw.....

If you are a sun worshipper, you'll love the smoking area on Disney Fantasy..... if you aren't, well .... I sorry!!

Deck 13 is where you'll want to be... bring a hat, b/c those poor folks (I am not a smoker) have no covering and it's windy as anything!!!

Easiest way to get there is either take the mid elevator to Deck 11 and walk two flights! OR Take forward elevator to Deck 13.

If you are in the search of a covered area, you'll want to take the Aft elevator to Deck 12 Meridian Bar (it's between Palo's and Remy's). Go through the bar to the deck on the right.

Be aware! when it rains they pile the chairs on the sofa so you'll either have to move the chair or stand.... Very Smart Disney! Very Smart!

You can also go Deck 4 Aft but there are no chairs.

I was disappointed and I'm not a smoker!

I did hear, however, that you can smoke on a verandah.... although I heard some reports from Nonsmokers that they didn't like their verandahs b/c of the smoke from others....

Oh well!!

Picture of Smoking Area Deck 13 -- It's past the Bar!! Where the folks are sitting....

 

[Belle2007]

Bars and Clubs on Fantasy!!!

DH's favorite: The Tube.... it's a Londonish club... reminded him of Dr. Who!

This is the hallway of one of the clubs... may have been between oh la la and something else...

This was skyline... I think it was my favorite.. there is a skyline that changes every 12 minutes...

This is oh La La... very girlish

Again great TR. thanks

Glad to hear that you can see the pics! Yep, work sometimes blocks me too!!

Ports are coming up!!!

 

[Belle2007]

We aren't the athletic types.... we did not do much in the Ports, but walked around and shopped..... so here is our adventure ...

First port.... Grand Cayman Islands....

We did this trip back in November on the Magic... and I was too afraid to board the tender.... let me tell you... don't be afraid it was a piece of cake!!

Disney Fantasy from the tender boat...

Sister ships Fantasy and her older sister Magic in Grand Cayman!!

Right at the port there are shops... great for shopping. I did get a great pair of black coral earrings for $22

Also, there was an awesome little stand for Lobster patties.... took a picture to share with you!

We really just walked around the port.... it was hot! So wear light clothing, etc.....

I'm so jealous! Can't wait to see the Fantasy myself in October. Great report!

Great pictures of the clubs! I'm glad you posted them. Makes me more excited for my upcoming cruise on the Fantasy! And I like the idea of walking around and shopping at ports - that is what I mainly did on both of my previous cruises.

 

[Never to old]

Thanks for the reports on the smoking area. Unfortunately my DH is interested in those areas

How long did it take to catch a tender to go ashore in Grand Cayman? Took forever on another cruise line last fall, so curious.

The wait time wasn't bad at all. We didn't have an excursion, so we weren't there first thing.... maybe 10 minutes? We came back around 1:30... no lines! And with so many people you'd think that there would be lines...

Really enjoyed Grand Cayman.... you must try one of the lobster patties!

I have loved reading your report Peggy! It sounds like you guys had a great time! I also loved watching the video your husband made about the trip, it was so cute!

My husband and I are about to take our first cruise on the Fantasy in Nov, western too, so I hope we have as great a time as you had!
