I have some friends (we used to live next door to each other for years) that are on your ship!!! Its their first cruise ever and she was sooo worried about seasickness. I sure hope that the rocking and rolling you're feeling doesn't affect her too much!

We were supposed to be on your cruise, but had to reschedule due to school.
Have a great adventure!!

Love reading your blog but the music is pure torture! It makes me want to be on a DCL cruise in the worst way! I am so glad that you got to dock at CC and hope that the captain can continue to find sunny skies for you. What a hurricane season this is becoming! Enjoy the rest of your cruise!

Andy....Jeff Civillico was on my Wonder cruise and he's hysterical. Definitely see his adult show. Actually, its not really that "adult" at all...more like he doesn't have to "filter" his comments.

He told us he was a runner up on American Gladiator. Wasn't sure whether or not he was pulling our legs but he does have the physique to be on that show

Glad to hear the cruise is going so well even with Hannah as an invited guest.

Jeff Civillico was great. Everybody on my cruise was great we had Michael Harrison and this was the week before has on on tv

but those two were my favorite

Great blogging Andy. Glad you could go to CC.

love reading your blog, thanks for posting.
can you find out if there is a pastry chef on the magic named Mandy? my brother in law has a full allergy to milk products and mandy really took care of him back in 05 for desserts , he's hoping she's still whipping up sweets when we sail 12/13.
many thanks and have a blast on CC!

If you run into head server John Cunningham again, could you please ask him if he will be on board Christmas week this year. We live in Scotland and have had a lot of fun with him on past cruises and would love to request him as our head server if he is going to be on board.
Many thanks, John's friends from Scotland - Judy & Russell
Enjoy the rest of your cruise - hope it's not too rocky

Hi Andy,

Thanks so much for keeping up with your blog (loved the video of Hazel too)! I'm really enjoying it.

You know, DD, DH and I were just a little bit kitty-corned across the hall from you in August 2006 - had Derrick as room host - but I was just too shy to say "Hi, I've been reading you on the DISboards for years"!

Anyway, it's so fun that you were able to pull this off for Hazel. Enjoy!

Just as we were leaving our cabin this morning we ran into Derrick. He is on our floor and he starts at the cabin two doors down from us and is working in the other direction from our cabin.

Captain Tom just made an announcement as we were getting ready to leave Nassau. Because of Hanna our course has now changed and the mystery now begins. We will NOT be heading for our second Castaway Cay day on Friday. It is predicted that Hanna will pass to the east of Castaway Cay and Nassau on Friday, and predicted to make landfall in South Carolina on Saturday. Captain Tom said we are headed to the Straights of Florida. It was reported that Hanna is getting stronger and larger.

As far as today goes, Hazel and I went into Nassau to do a little shopping. We picked up a couple of t-shirts for our daughter and also a few 18th Birthday gifts for her as well. So, Lina when you read this, you will have to wait until we arrive home to find out what these surprise gifts are, but we know you will like them, love you sweetie.

We had lunch at Topsiders this afternoon, then went to see Wall-E at 3pm, but by 3:30 we were leaving the Buena Vista Theatre as we were both falling asleep. We arrived back at our cabin and took a nap until Captain Tom came on with his announcement.

We have dinner in about one hour, tonight we will be back in Animator’s Palate for Pirate Night.

I guess that’s the latest for now, feel free to follow along for the rest of our mystery cruise.
