13 people was in our group. My husband cousin, wife and two kids and another couple and their one child.

June 29, Stayed at Radisson at the Port. We had a suite with two king beds and a pull out sofa bed. The Radisson was nice. I have stayed at other elite places and I have to say that I was very please with Radisson and their shuttle services. I would stay here again!!! We rode to Coco Beach; wasn’t please with the beach and some of the hotels on the beach. I guess being a Myrtle Beach( South Carolina) lover; I was expecting the same for Coco beach.

June 30, Arrive at the port around 10:40am. It wasn’t crowed at all. Signed kids up for the kids club. We had lunch at BBB. Walked around the ship and waited on our rooms. I had two Cat. 9 rooms on deck two (2616 and 2618). We were near the aft elevators. No noise. It rain during our sail away party. They move the party inside. I really enjoyed the sail away party. Our dining rotation was PTA. Our dining time was 6:15pm. The first night at dinner, I got seasick and left and my husband had to bring me my dinner. We didn’t go see Hercules because I wasn’t feeling well.

July 1, Went to BBB for breakfast and watch the ship dock in Nassau. We got off the boat at 10:00am. and walked around the straw market. We met up with our other party around 11:00am to take a tour around Nassau. We got a taxi for the group for $10.00 per person and $5.00 for the children. That was a good deal! We tour Nassau for two hours. We tour the historic places of Nassau, rich neighborhood, poor neighborhood, a market that had cheap items such as handbags, t-shirts and etc. My daughters got a straw bags with Disney characters on them. We tour the Atlantis Hotel and we met the retired NBA Star for the LA Lakers, Rick Fox. My son took a picture with him. We arrive back at the boat around 1:30pm and eat lunch BBB. My children swim in goofy pool and we sit around the pool and enjoyed the Caribbean music. 6:15pm. We went to Tritons; the food was good. Golden Mickey was playing and we loved the show. That night my son went to play basketball with some friends he met. We went to the Pirate of the Caribbean Party and we party the night away.

July 2, Castaway Cay. It was hot, hot, hot!!!! We had fun! My DD14 and DS12 went snorkeling. They stayed in the water. Lunch was good. We went back on the boat around 3:30pm. Me and DH went to our cabin to take a nap and DD19 and DD14 went to their cabin for a nap. My DS went to play basketball while DM watch. My son won a medal for winning the 3 on 3 contest. He was happy! We went to dinner at 6:15pm and went to see Disney’s Dreams that night. We loved the show. We tour the ship and went to pack to put our suitcases outside the cabin by 11:00pm. Times fly when you having fun!!! Breakfast at Parrot Cay this morning.

July 3, went to Animal Palate for breakfast; and left the ship around 9:00am. Everything went smooth. The Radisson shuttle was their to pick us up. It was now time to start the second half of our vacation. We stayed five more days in Orlando to visit the parks. We stayed in a four bedroom villa at the Terra Verde Resort. We had our own private pool. The kids love that. The other family had their own villa.

Dislike:
The children didn’t like the kids club. They did their own thing. DD19 said it was nothing for her to do because she was too old for the kids club and too young to hang with older adult. She said Disney should have something for her age to do. She love the trip but she said she would not go back unless she have some friends to come along.

Didn’t get a chance to see and do everything that’s on the ship because everything seem rush especially with the 6:15 dining time. Three nights were great but next time we will try the seven nights. WE LOVE THE DISNEY WONDER!!!!! This was the best trip we ever taken.
 
At your dinner at Tritons the night of the Pirates in the Caribbean party did the wait staff dress up like pirates? Was it a regular menu or the Pirate theme menu? We might take a 3-day cruise and we are wondering if it is different on Pirate night then it is on the 4 day.
This is how they were dressed on the 4 day and they gave everyone a red bandana.

They didn't dress up like pirates and we had the regular menu. They did give out the red bandanas.
 
We were on the same cruise. I was rather disappointed in Pirate's night. We were in Triton's that night too. I guess I've read so much about it on these boards that I thought there would be a lot more too it. I guess my expectations were too high. :confused3 We did have a great cruise though. :flower: My DD age 16 did not like the activities for her age either. I think Disney is more in tune with the younger ones. She hung out with me most of the time. We did a lot of bonding, but it would be nice if Disney offered more for the older teens.
