Just Back From The Magic

[LittleTink]

Well, we just returned from our Eastern run on the Magic today. I have to say that there were a few bumps in the road. There are still several guests being quarentined to their staterooms when they become sick (we knew of an entire family of 5, a littlr girl from another cabin and another gentleman down the hall). My DD was extremely ill with a high fever but was not vomiting so she was not quarentined. Ok, enough about that, boarding was extremely easy. We got the exact dining rotation and table (we were sailing with 2 other families) we requested. The room (6645) was your typical inside cabin, suited us just fine. Our cabin steward Rodolfo was fabulous! When my DD was sick, he made sure we had everything we needed and more. As for our dining server and assistant server they were positively tremendous!! Their names were Alex (from the Phillipines) and Antonia (from Croatia). These two made coming to dinner an experience every night. The night my daughter was feeling a little better, she came to dinner with us and had cream of mushroom soup spilled all over her (not by our servers i do have to say!) and they got her up and to our cabin to change clothes (it was semi formal night) and took her soiled clothes to be dry cleaned right away..we had them back before we went to bed that night. The entertainment was fabulous as always! We especially love Disney Dreams!! I cry everytime i see that one! Of course I cannot say enough about the food there is sooooo much of it and it seems to get better every time we go! The weather was gorgeous all along the way and at Casaway Cay, it was about 80 degrees with a nice breeze (paradise all the way)!! well, if anyone wants any specifics, please feel free to respond back!!!

Sorry your dd was not feeling well, but glad to hear that you enjoyed the cruise.

Was there anything that you didn't pack or that others haven't suggested that you wish you had taken with you? I just don't want to miss anything.

sorry about DD hope she still enjoyed the cruise.
Were the new menus in all the restaurants now? Anything stand out? What excursions did you pick?

Little Tink,
Did you notice if the airlines are still taking luggage at the port (on the way back) or did you have to claim it and then re-check it at the airport?

If they quarantine one illness, they should quarantine ANY illness. Influenza is just as contagious as the stomach flu. I think DCL should be consistent otherwise people w/ Stomach flu symptoms will start masking them and just saying they have a fever. Also, people may vomit on ships due to seasickness, how do they know the difference.... unless you also have diarrhea as well???
