If there were kids running through I didn't really notice them. It's kind of out of the way but it is close to the entrance for the water slide so I could see how some might turn the wrong way and end up in the 18+ area. For the most part it's pretty quiet. There's a nice bar in the back and a coffee shop (I went to neither because I'm not a big day drinker and I'm happy with free coffee, but it's nice to have the option).
We had a hard time dragging ourselves away from this glorious sunset, even though they had already dragged our chairs away
When the sun had finally set and the port was farther and farther away we left and had a nice wander around the empty deck...
Afterwards we found ourselves in the Jungle Cruise Lounge watching an 80's Cover Band. They were good and I had a Truly in a cute glass while we watched.
We still had some time before the Pirate Party was starting so what else would we do...
Disney Movie Quotes Trivia! This was harder than you'd think it would be because some of the movies they were quoting from were pretty obscure!
Afterwards it was time to head up to the Pirate Party! That's next!

Allie and I found a spot in the back on the stairs to watch the Pirate Party.
It's a fun party but honestly I think I've seen it too many times that it's kind of losing its luster for me.
I don't know that I would make it a point to go to it on my next cruise.
This is the best part...
Jack Sparrow jumps out of the smoke stack which is kind of cool.
The fireworks are always fun though and are set to the POTC theme which I love...
It had been a long day for us and we headed back to the room after that to find this guy waiting for us...
Arrrgggghhhhhhh
We also grabbed a couple boxes of cereal to bring off the ship with us in case we wanted a snack for later. It kind of still burns my butt that DCL doesn't have Uncrustables anymore on the ships. They were the perfect thing to bring off for a snack because they were factory sealed. I've asked now on both the WISH and the TREASURE and they no long have them in room service.
The boat brought us somewhere to board a little bus which then drives along these crazy small, winding roads up in the mountains. The view from up there was amazing and I tried snapping some pics but the pics don't do it justice.
That water was just stunning
We were up there so long that the crew started putting all the chairs away for Pirate Night
and we were forced to leave!
Bummer because we could have sat up there all night, it was so pretty!
I love all your pictures from the day! Pirates night looks like a fun time especially the fireworks. I’m with you I love the PotC score! The music is such a favorite of mine.
I wish Andi would cruise with me, I would love it! She is not really into cruising. My sisters are now bailing on me for our Treasure Christmas cruise. I am really sad I would love to do a Disney cruise someday.
I have to live vicariously through you since you are lucky to cruise often!

I can see that! We have a "mountain" here in CT called Sleeping Giant that literally looks like a sleeping giant
That pic is from the internet. It's really pretty there and is right across from where Allie went to college so we would hike it sometimes.
