I hope you all had a great cruise. Quick question for you, were you able to port in Grand Cayman and Cozumel? We were on another ship and my daughter was looking for the Magic but we couldn't find you!

We were there. We docked at Cozumel and dropped anchor at Grand Cayman and took tenders into town.

Which day were you where? Did you have any tendering at Grand Cayman?

Thanks for the info. Was that the orginal schedule? I had looked online at one of the calendars that showed the Magic in Grand Caymen and then Cozumel. So that would explain why we didn't see you. We weren't able to tender at Grand Cayman. Someone said that last Tuesday Grand Cayman was closed to all tendering. I don't know if that was true or not.

Thanks.
Mindi

 

[RLP817]

Yes, that was our original schedule. They do it both ways.. we were on the Cozumel before Grand Caymen schedule.

Thanks everyone for the great fish extender gifts! Nice to meet all of you that we did. Hope you had a great time. Did anyone book another cruise? We booked a 5 day double dip on the Dream in June 2011.

Nice to meet everyone and thanks for the great gifts! I wish we would have ran into each other more often but I guess you get busy with the magic of the magic. Sadly, we decided against rebooking because it isn't in the budget right now and so expensive for a family of 5. We are watching for kids sail free specials though and hope to go again

Thanks to everyone for the great FE gifts- we had a blast! We did rebook for the Dream - double dip in July 2011. Looks like that itinerary is a popular one!

The weather on the CC day just made us want to come back and visit it again! And the new ship looks so great.

Hope everyone has a great summer!

I was sorry that we didn't get to participate in the events of the board and spend more time on this board. In past cruises we have, and it's been a lot of fun. We had a blast this cruise and they just get better and better.

We are booked on the Southern Holiday Cruise in December this year and are really looking forward to it. It's an 11 night cruise and goes to different ports of call than we have gone before.

Thank you all for a great FE gift exchange, my family really enjoyed it and it made our first Disney Cruise extra special!! It was especially nice because my younger daughter was having a hard time with an allergic reaction to an antibiotic she was taking for a sinus infection prior to the beginning of the cruise. She still had fun, but was not up for fully participating in many of the activities. After the cruise, we spent 3 nights in Disney at AK and I must say that I was really impressed with Disney's effiency in getting us off the ship and to the resort early so we spent the day in Magic Kingdom.
We are really hoping to book a Med Cruise on the Magic for next year and probably a trip on the Dream at some point. Nothing booked yet.

Thanks so much everyone for the FE gifts! What a fantastic time we had!!! It's a little bittersweet coming back to this thread. . .it was so fun planning. Guess that just means we need to plan another one . We booked a dummy reservation onboard. . .just need to look ahead to see what week will work in the next couple years!!

Thanks again and I hope everyone had as magical of a time as we did. Such great memories!!

HI,
Did anyone experience this or have problems with this? On the morning of March 21 around about 815am, the ship made a huge jolt and rock, it woke us up. Our room steward knocked on our door to ask us if water was coming out of our toilet. Also I heard in Topsiders that glass broke, food hit the floor, and people fell and dropped their trays of food. And some injuries. Does anyone know what really caused this, because Disney won't say?

 

[gourt]

Hi there - we were at Parrot Cay at the character breakfast when this happened. What we heard from one of the senior crew is that the ship was "making the turn" towards Key West and that it's typical for this to happen. There were a few dishes that fell in the kitchen but no accidents that we could see.

 

[TeenaS]

We were walking on the deck on five and it was not "normal". A few of the men working on painting on the deck had earphones on and they got the siren on it because they stopped everything and ran to stations ... we heard them shouting to each other. Later I saw one of the officers I've known for a few years and asked him and he said something to the effect that it was unexpected incident that happened and was corrected immediately. By what he said we were led to believe something happened on the bridge. I've been on that exact cruise many times and I've never had that happen before. I've had horribly rough weather but not one short little incident like that.

 

[lovencr3]

Well, Disney Claims is denying the incident. A glass broke in my room and I stepped on it, and it ruined my whole trip. I couldn't walk as much or get in the pool or oceans. Also my phone feel off the table and the screen got crack. Disney doesn't believe they are responsible at all. Pretty rediculous!!!
