Paradise to the Treasure-A Polynesian/Eastern Caribbean/Spring Adventure 2025...Updated 6/23

Wow, beautiful pics! Looks like you guys had such a fun day.

Thank you! Just writing this and looking back on our pics makes me want to go back again on this same cruise!

They also gave us a drink ticket but it wasn't good at Soggy Dollar. I ended up using it for a bottle of water on the way out.

Better than nothing… barely.

Ugh..don't remind me I hate hearing my voice!

Don’t see why. I was happy to hear you.

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).

Sounds good to me.

MARCH 4, 2025

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!

(A little behind the scenes...I don't know if my computer is acting up or the boards but it's not letting me change the text color this time. I actually had more written and went to change it and it deleted my whole post so this was my aggravated re-written version!)

ROCKING PIRATE PARTY

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

Another Port Day is next!​

So much drier than I imagined!! HUH!

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.

Well, that really sucks.

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

Ohhh, very pretty! The Caribbean water is so BLUE.

They are also famous for a drink called the Painkiller

Loooove me a Painkiller!

but if we go again I would book the full-day instead of the half.

I can see that; this seemed really quick!

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!

Well, crap. It sure looked lovely!

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!

Island almost looks like a silhouette of a man lying in the water. (head to the left)

Where'd everybody go?!?!?

Cool glass...

Sneak it into your purse when no one's looking.


What? I didn't say anything?

We still had some time before the Pirate Party was starting so what else would we do...

But of course!

Pretty cool for a towel animal.

So much drier than I imagined!! HUH!

It does look dry here and yet it's the Caribbean and it rains a LOT!

Ohhh, very pretty! The Caribbean water is so BLUE.

My favorite

Loooove me a Painkiller!

Oh you've had one? Isn't it delicious?! Where have you had them?

 

[buzzrelly]

I wish Andi would cruise with me, I would love it! She is not really into cruising.

Has she been? Does she get seasick? I think the two of you would have an amazing time on a cruise!

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.

Oh, no! That stinks!! Allie and I just booked Alaska on the Wonder for September 2026 or I would consider going with you! I love the Treasure!

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.

Cool glass...

Sneak it into your purse when no one's looking.

I could have purchased it I think but we have too many glasses and mugs as it is so I try to save my purchases for ones I really love!

We have one up here too. About an 8 hour drive from me in Thunder Bay, ON. (Also from the internet)

I went to college right there! QU class of 04! Man I feel old! Also probably the only person in the history of the school to NOT hike the sleeping giant lol

That's too funny! Cue the song...it's a small world after all! My daughter graduated QU 2024! Not too late to hike it...very pretty, especially in the fall, although I hear there have been more than a few bear sightings

I never thought about it but clearly there are a lot of sleeping giants in the world!

 

[Woth2982]

My daughter graduated QU 2024!

Oh too funny! Very different school 20 years later! We were still Braves my first couple years there. I think my senior year they were officially Bobcats. I couldn't even live on campus senior year. No housing!

I hear there have been more than a few bear sightings

Haha not anything I don't already have on my street. They show up frequently on the ring cam! I joke I live in the woods, even though the next town over, and I mean literally down the street, is a decent sized city lol.
