November 10th, 2024 - Disney Fantasy - 6 Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral with 2 stops at Castaway Cay & Lighthouse Point

It looks like we got lucky with our boarding group. We are silver, boarding group 3, arrival between 11:15-11:30. We are staying at Boardwalk. Glad we decided on Boardwalk, since I’m guessing that resort just happened to fall in that boarding group. I saw a few others mention group 3 and they are all close to BW, so it must just be all up to luck this time.

I have taken the suitcases out, started throwing things in as I get them (pirate outfits, Christmas dresses, etc). Got most of the small stuff from Amazon that has been sitting in my cart yesterday on prime day. I have finished 95% of my FE gifts, just need some Xmas wrapping paper to wrap everything for the kids. Tried a few stores but although they have Xmas stuff out, no wrapping paper has made it out yet.

The biggest project left is to make magnets. I did make our Santa Mickey hat for our door porthole, but still have many others to do.

We are in CT, and the weather is starting to get a bit colder so I might start packing our bathing suits and shorts since we probably don’t need them much anymore.

I am so excited but it’s always around now I start to get nervous about trips. Weather is a concern for me. We went to Aulani last year in Nov. Everyone always says Aulani weather is fantastic 99% of the time and go whenever. lol. We were there during a Kona low and didn’t see the sun from the day we arrived until our departure day. Even though it was in the 70’s with no sun and drizzling, it was uncomfortable to be at the beach or pool. (For us anyway) Really hoping for decent weather this trip.
 
This is specifically for Christmas Day so won’t be a menu we have, it’s normally just all the usual menus for other very merrytime sailings
 
Still no sign of the Christmas stateroom decor yet but they are offering these Christmas trees you can get for your stateroom. 🎄

I finally put together all of my fish extender gifts. They take up 3/4 of my suitcase and it already weighs 30lbs😬. Good thing we are flying Southwest this trip. I think I’ll need to dig out another suitcase. At least I’ll have plenty of room to bring back my room decor package and all the mugs and ornaments I buy on the cruise and at MVMCP and Jollywood nights.🎄

I ordered my fish extender for our door back in July when it was Amazon prime days. No idea where that is. Guess that is a disadvantage to buying early.
 
I have these 2 bags (Like New) that we have no use for and are giving away to a good home. I am wondering if anyone would like them? You can pick one or both. Just post your stateroom number and I’ll drop them off to you.

Also if anyone is getting the Castaway Club beach towel you get for being platinum and you don’t want them we’d like them. We are currently Gold Castaway Club members so won’t get the towel. More then one would be great if multiple Staterooms have ones to offer. We will be in stateroom 7677.
 
Did anyone besides me receive a refund for Port fees ?? $23 I called DCL and they said it was for Port Fees 🤷‍♀️
 
Here is an opportunity for you and your family members to watch the safety video they show in the stateroom without taking away valuable cruise time on that first day.
