I'm sitting in the airport in Orlando waiting for my flight. We had a wonderful time, but I'm exhausted and looking forward to sleeping in my own bed. I still feel like I'm on the ship, the rocking motion. I hope it goes away soon.

got home a while ago, still feel like I am rocking, but love that feeling, uploading all my pictures to the computer right now

we're hoping to take advantage of the 99 dollar thingy too!
i absolutely LOVED this trip. even though i got a little sick. but thanks to donna and those sea bands i was able to get over the sea sickness! THANKS DONNA!!!

I hope everyone got home safely! I got home last night around 6:20 and it was so nice to sleep in my own bed!
i'm still a little dizzy and my house looks like its still rocking back and forth though and some times i tip over and lose my balance.

good seeing you at the airport yesterday morning

I think DH and I will go for the $99 deal leaving the girls with grandma. We are very much looking forward to enjoying peaceful dinners and the adult entertainment that we have missed on our 3 prior cruises.

 

[aan1701]

Well I am on my way to the Hollywood studios. I have to get a ride on the tower and rockin roller coaster before back to reality tomorrow. Also going to 'Ohana tonight then to Magic Kingdom for extra magic hours till 1 A.M. Wish I got to meet you guys. I did meet Dave and he was a riot.

 

[TChrist05]

I have found the each and every cruise it gets harder to get back to reality. We arrived home in New York yesterday and it was almost as warm as it was in Florida which helped....back to work yesterday.....

Nice meeting so many nice people on the cruise....seems like all I do is talk to people on the cruises....but the servers were great....room steward did a great job....and I enjoyed the entertainment more this cruise than others...but only wish we had a matinee of the Golden Mickeys....

Got to meet quite a few people at dinner....first night we sat with a family of 4 and the next night they were gone....we had 4 other people at our table...hopefully it wasn't us that caused em to move.....our server said they met friends on the ship and moved and saw them and they said that they were called and given a new table number....kind of baffles me....

Anyway, nice to get the $99 voucher and even though we had only 3 people sailing we are permitted to bring another person for that price....so looks like our daughter will join us....probably the last vacation together for awhile since she is getting married next February.

Great cruise everyone...nice meeting so many.

WHAT A WONDERFUL CRUISE!!!

We made it home early this morning. (yawn!) It was so hard to come back home!

To everyone we met at the sailaway meet... it was great meeting you!

Wanda... glad you were able to use your over the door hanger. Thanks for the messages on our white board.

Ron... Thanks for the graphics. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Leslie... Thanks for the info on the services, and for our cruise name tags.

Elaine... Thanks for our lanyards!

Ness... Thanks for the list!

I forgot the name of the couple we met on the last night while talking at the DVC desk on Deck 4... we met at the sailaway meeet... Q - Did you ake the plunge???

Our group had a GREAT Stateroom Host, and Wonderful Servers every night at our dining rotation. We also did the High Tea which was fun.

We hope to do the $99 cruise too! Now we need to decide which one to dial in for on April 6th!

Here's to a great week back to reality everyone!

 

[RookieMouse]

What an amazing week!!!!

Everything was perfect! Our dining room team was incredible, Oppie and Krisztian rock!!! Our stateroom was great... loved the verandah. The ports of call and the excursions were awesome, and Castaway Cay defies description. And then there was Palo.... OMG!!!!

Everyone in our extended family group of 14 had the most awesome week!! We all went our own way and usually did our own thing all day, and then all of us were at the same table each night for dinner.

It was awesome to finally see everyone from this board... at least those we managed to hook up with.

That may have been our first cruise, but it won't be our last. One thing we did onboard was join the Disney Vacation Club. We had attanded the presentation at WDW, but didn't have a lot of time to discuss it. So we attended the onboard one, found that the incentives were even better, and took the plunge. And because of the number of points we purchased, we get a free 7-night cruise!!!! Woo hoo!!!!

Now we are back to reality, and here in Alberta, reality means winter is still here. We landed in Calgary last night, just ahead of a nasty blizzard that dropped 7 or 8 cm of snow on us in the space of an hour. The drive to Edmonton today was nasty, with snowpacked roads, high winds, blowing snow, and white out conditions!! Welcome home!!

Anyway, back to real life... but we will treasure the memories and the new friends! Now we'll be planning our next cruise, probably for this time next year, and we'll likely combine it with our first trip home as DVC members!!

Keep and eye on facebook for photos.

Congrats - we loved this cruise and will definately be coming back in the fall. The only thing we missed was Mickey going down the zip line - I heard he was a new one and maybe a bit nervous! See y'all next time!
