oh my gosh soooo loved your report and pictures can not wait till our halloween cruise!!!!!!

Thanks for the live trip report, Andy. Loved the pictures! And I, too, had a wistful little sigh when I looked at your last picture. Leaving the Magic behind is always a little sad.

Welcome home Andy, well almost. The worst day of any cruise on the Magic is that day you have leave. They always drag us off screamig and kicking. I enjoyed reading your posts. We'll be paying off our September cruise soon, which will make number six closer to a reality! Reading your posts really made me long for the Magic and the high seas. So glad you had a great trip and wishing a safe one back from Florida, from a fellow Garden Stater.

Andy,

Thank you so much for your live updates. It was fun to hop on the disboards first thing in the morning and read about your adventures the day prior. I am contemplating doing a live from the magic thread when i go in....see below...

Andy - thanks so much for taking the time out of your vacation to share it will all of us. A live report is so much fun to keep up with - makes the waiting that us folks on land are doing go a bit faster. I am sorry you were not feeling well at the beginning of your cruise but glad that by the end you were able to enjoy your mealtimes.

Sorry your trip is over but hope you arrived home safe and sound with a happy heart full of many MAGICal memories.

Andy, Your website from the trip is great!! The end of a cruise with DCL is always tough.

Hope you are fully recovered. Thanks for sharing with us!!

Andy - your comment about taking Angelina on a cruise for her graduation gave me goose bumps.

She certainly has grown up to become a very beautiful lady. Can't believe she will be graduating in 2008. Wow.

And thanks for your posts. Always nice to know Verandah Man has brought the Magic back home safely.

Hey Andy! Thanks for everything! It was wonderful to meet you and your family. You guys are a special group.

We had a lovely time on the cruise...we even rebooked onboard. DS literally skipped all over the ship he was so happy. The Mickey Pool was his favorite...he finally decided to go down the Mickey Slide on the last day. He loved it so much, he went down it about 30 times in a row! Now he has something to look forward to next time.

I didn't go on the BBR this cruise, but my DD went on with some other family members. They left around 2:15pm and yes, they did get flipped off the BBR. I ran to the post office as they took their ride, and when I got back I found my DW nearly passed out from standing in the sun and heat. We had to take my DW to the first aid station and get her in the air conditioning, where she stayed for about 20 minutes, then we were taken back to the ship on one of the golf carts. You weren't too far from some of my family members, as they had cabins 6036 and 6038.

Verandah Man,

You certainly embody the "Spirit of Disney" as I understand it. Your love of Disney and your kindness to all are an inspiration.

One week ago today, we were enjoying lunch at Cookies Bar-B-Q. Today, I'm here at home for lunch where it is storming outside. I would rather be back at CC and the sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
