Sunday 22nd July

It was wonderful not having to get up at 6am for Immigration. It was always the downside to the Cruise, so this was definitely a change for the better. We were up around 7am, quickly got ready, disembarked the ship, found our cases, presented our passports to Immigration on the way out and we were in the car heading back to WDW by 7.50am

Thoughts of this cruise

Highlights

Spending lots of ‘us’ time with hubby
Palo (was absolutely brilliant)
Castaway Cay
Food
Bahama Mamas
Not having to be at Immigration for 6am on disembarkation morning

Slightly Disappointing

Our servers, they were nice and friendly but didn’t go out of their way

Disappointing

Having to get off
Not having the Disney Wonder Dancing Queens (who I had the pleasure of meeting on our January Cruise) there to share it with.

Back on track

We arrived at MGM Studios around 9ish and it was already busy. RockNRollerCoaster was down, so we got FP’s for Tower of Terror (as the line was really long due to RnRc being down).

We had breakfast at ‘Starring Rolls’ and then went to watch MuppetVision 3D.

We then rode Tower of Tower, but we were shattered so we went back to the Pop Century for a rest.

In the afternoon we went to the Florida Mall (I’m not sure if we bought anything) and then we popped into Wal-Mart so that I could get my Harry Potter book.

In the evening Paul & I went to DownTown Disney to start our ‘present shopping’ for our friends and family, we did really well considering the place was packed.

Before we left we had burgers in McDonalds and I think we were in bed by 10pm

Aw Mandy... how sweet! I wished we could have been there with you guys!

Though this sounds like it was a very nice cruise having some alone time

[mark&sue]

The cruise sounds great and am now really looking forward to ours. It also doesn't sound too far away from WDW.

Thanks for your great reports and photos

I wish we could have all been there too

That was the best cruise that I've ever been on!

I bet the DJ in Wavebands didn't get to know you by name this time

But I'm glad to hear that you had a lovely time with your family.
