"Keep Calm and Cruise On" Western Caribbean Fantasy Cruise Trip Report

GREAT report so far!!!

We were on the same cruise as you -- can't wait to hear all about it! I'll be looking for us in your pictures! :goodvibes

Hello!! Where you in the fish-extender group??? If so what group??? We were team Goofy:goofy:
 
Good job on your trip report so far. I'm really looking forward to hearing about the Edge. My daughter is 12 so she plans to spend a lot of time there.

Do you know if you are able to go to both the Oceaneer Club and the Edge? I was hoping my daughter would be able to go to both so she can hang with her little brother. Thanks!

When ever we got to the terminal, they said that DB1 could go to both to see which one he liked better. through out the trip, I saw a lot of kids, even some of my friends, have the yellow bands for the OC & OL. So , Yes, you can go to the Edge and OL. I hope I answered your question and that you have fun on your trip.!!!
 
Enchanted Garden Dinner

Before dinner we all went to the show at the Walt Disney Theater, A Fantasy Come True.It was a very cool show that was basically
about a family on vacation aboard the Fantasy. I did'nt see the 1st show on
the magic, so I don't know how to judge it. Overall it was great.


One thing that makes Disney Cruise Line different is that they
have a dining rotation system. When you get your KTTW card it will have a
mixture of jumbled letters at the bottom. If you are on the Magic , the
Jumble will have a mixture of A,C, & L. Wonder, A, P, & T (might change
soon) Dream & Fantasy, E, A, & R. Our Rotation was ERAERRA. And since you
have this dining rotation, you have the same waiters every night. Our
waiters were Ashley(from India) & Mario (from Indonesia). They were both
wonderful!! So saying that, Lets get going to our 1st meal at the Enchanted
Garden.

flavor.

Overall the meal was good, Besides my Appetizer and Entree.
I personally would give this meal a :):):) & 1/2 every one else might give it
maybe a 4 or 4 1/2. We loved the scenery and design of the restaurant. Also
the changing flowers.

:tink: Have a Flutterific Day!!!!!
 
We didn't join an FE group this time...but we were part of the FB group and DISboard group!

Great meal report -- looks tasty overall!
 


This is such a fun trip report - it makes me really miss the Fantasy. DS12 just went to the Edge on the Wonder, and he said he liked it better than the Fantasy. That probably equals "more time to play video games". LOL! Glad they let your brother join you in the Edge. I had a feeling when we chatted during your pre-trip report that he might have outgrown the Lab activities. My son also thought the "cave" atmosphere of the Edge on the classic ships, down in the depths on the 2nd deck, was more fun. Personally, I would have liked the spaciousness and brightness on deck 13, but maybe it's a girl thing. ;) Looking forward to more!
 
Love your TR! I'm looking forward to seeing what you have to say about the rest of your stay on the Fantasy!

Thank you for following along!! I recently had a friend go on the Magic (right before they changed it) and she didn't care for it. The Magic and Wonder are sister ships and a lot alike, Including the Edge. She said that her 2 cousins that were boys loved it. I guess that the Edge on the Wonder and Magic are more darker and "boyish" (maybe not the Magic anymore) and the Fantasy and Dream more bright, playful, and a little bit more "girlish". I personally would like the newer ships Edge.


Love your TR:surfweb::surfweb:

Thank You!! That brightened my day!!!


Thx for all these comments!!! :wave2::goodvibes:blush:
 
Royal Court Breakfast

I am sorry that I haven't been posting anything for a while!!! I
have had my dance recital, dance competition, sleepovers, swimming, and
enjoying SUMMER!! So with out further ado........


I did not take any pics of RC because we went there for
dinner. I will talk about the restaurant when I talk about dinner. I woke up
around 7a.m. ready for our 1st full at sea day. Well it seemed like rest of the
family wasn't . I got dressed and ready for the day while the rest of the family
was sleeping like little babys....... till I woke them up.::yes:: Once they were
up, Me, DF, DB1 & 2 went down to RC while DM finished getting ready. When
you sit down you order your drink and a pastry. I got apple juice and a apple
turnover.


10362374_10203289246205799_2051096808220643580_n.jpg


Fruit and yogurt
ME & DF
Okay....so on the menu it said "fruit AND yogurt" not Fruit yogurt. This was
not even really good yogurt.

French Toast and Pineapple Stack- Layers of French Toast
and Grilled Pineapple, topped with Strawberry Coulis, Maple Glaze and Fruit
salad
Me
Since I didn't get any fruit with my yogurt I got this. This was very good and
refreshing. It was lighter than some other breakfast's I had.

Breakfast was good and I liked it way better than the buffet. I gave it :):):):)!! PEACE OUT:hippie:
 
Princess Meet

When I last left of, we just finished breakfast at the
Royal Court. I knew that I wanted to attend a princess gathering, and luckily
right after breakfast there was one going on in the lobby. DF went to take the
boys to the kids clubs while DM and I went to the lobby. On the floor above
was Daisy, so I went up to the upper floor to take a picture with my favorite
duck!! ( sorry Donald!!) So....... Funny story: There was a little girl in a Elsa
dress, about DB2 age, with her mom. And while in line she was writing her full
name in her autograph book. Now let me pause story time for a second. So
finally after a very short line... I got to meet Daisy!!!


This was the only good picture that they got

10478234_10203563613064799_2655640435608244576_n.jpg


The other picture is very blurry.

So after I saw Daisy I met up with my mom in the
line for the princesses. When I realized...... THE KTTW CARD I HAD WAS NOT
MINE!!! rember the little Elsa girl who was writing her name in her book? Well
the last name on the kttw card was the same last name of the little girl. So I
took the card to GS and then got back in line.


Silly DF

I loved all the princess!!!!:lovestruc


Well.............Bye Bye!!!
 
I love your trip report! I noticed all of your door magnets. Barb was kind enough to provide me with several designs. Unfortunately I'm not very good with the computer. I did learn that there is such a thing as magnet paper. I also learned that magnet paper doesn't work very well in laser printers. I tried to print the designs on regular paper and found that the designs don't exactly fit (some of the boarder was cut off on each side). Also, I love the Mickey head magnets but I don't have a steady enough hand to use an exact-o knife. Any suggestions? I'm looking forward to the next update on your trip report. I really like all of the pictures! :love:

We just have a regular old printer that we used. All we would do is simply put the pictures we wanted to use as magnets and pin them on Microsoft Word. Then we would print it out on magnet paper we found at the store. Df would then cut them out with scissors once they done printing. I hope that helps you!

Excellent report. Now I am excited for our first trip too...

Thank you!!
 
Great report! We are doing this cruise next month and I love hearing about it. Do you mind telling me where you got your keep calm shirts? They are great!
