I hope you're having so much fun at WDW!
I'm so sorry things were so delayed- I've never had to wait to sail away. Yikes! Can't wait to hear what you thought of your first show and dinner! (And am so trying to convince DH to book a last-minute cruise for our anniversary...)

Time to cross those Mickey arches and finally see the Disney Fantasy in-person.

The most exciting moments before the cruise!!! (I don't know HOW I missed that the Wish is sailing out of Terminal 10 right now while the Treasure is in 8, so we didn't get to walk through Mickey ears last week!! I was so sad!)

I loved seeing all of the portholes in the hallways!

I LOVE those long hallways full of portholes!!!

This one was called “La Piazza.” I loved the look of this bar so much, the giant carousel reminded me of Mary Poppins!

That bar is one of my favs, too. It reminds me of the Carousel Bar at Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans. That one actually rotates while you're sitting at it! And the bartenders have to hop over the bar to get in the middle!

The lady was so funny; she was like “Well, if you’d like to get some CEU’s, the meeting is from 9-12 at Animator’s Palate tomorrow morning!” Jake politely declined that tempting offer.

Sounds tempting, ma'am, but I'm on vacation!!! LOL

All of the straws on the cruise were edible and flavored to different fruits, which was a little strange.

That was new for us this sailing, too! The mango one in the drink of the day at Castaway Cay was actually a pretty delicious combo, LOL. I did not enjoy the lime one!

We had chosen Room #9602 which was on the Starboard side on Deck 9. This was technically considered an “aft” room, so it was a bit cheaper, but it was one of the farthest central rooms in the category.

We were in 9112 on the Wish this trip and it was also considered an aft room. It was definitely more midship than we expected it to be (pleasantly surprised, as that's what we wanted, but had slim pickings at the time of our booking, too!)

I definitely teared up and gave Jake a big kiss when the horns blared “A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes.”

That is one of my most favorite parts of the whole cruise! I love the original horn on the Magic and Wonder most of all, but the other songs played on the newer ships are pretty fun.

I can't wait to hear more about your cruise adventure!!! It'll ease my own pain of having just disembarked. Ha!
