Hi Verandah man! It sounds like you are having a blast. I can't believe it's already been a week since we got off the ship. If you happen to run into Alicia from Trinadad, she's a server, tell her hello from Marcie. She was awesome.

Andy: That's funny ! We were posting at the same time but on 2 different decks of the ship.



Joanna: Yes Terry is here and having a great time, I will tell her you said " hi "




o.k a couple of firsts for me on this trip so far...............I ordered the all hands on deck cheese platter, It was yummy !!! It worked out good for DH and me because I got to eat the ones I wanted and he ate the rest. You get grapes,mozzarella,swiss,chedder,blue cheese, goat cheese, brie,smokey cheese.


Mickeymom923 & I spilt a konk cooler, that was also good. Nice and fruity.

Even though this ship is big,I am always bumping into diser's. Sometimes I think we are the only ones on the ship.

I entered yesterday's entry, with pics, into my blog before breakfast this morning. But I forgot to reduce the size for one of the pics, I'll have to edit that after I get home, as I don't want to use my minutes for making the change.

Heading back to the room to see if DW and DD are up yet, they were still sleeping when my Dmom and I went to Topsiders for breakfast.

I'll check back later, and yes Sea Spray is onboard.

Great thread so far Cruisin' Castaways! Sounds like you guys are having so much fun...I'm so glad! I'm also glad that so many of you are posting "LIVE" from the Magic. Can't wait to get back onboard and show Amelia her Mommy and Daddy's second home.

Andy - Please tell Angelina I said Happy Bday! ...and give hugs to Hazel from us. :-*

Off to read your blog...

Andy! I should know better than to look at food pictures when I haven't eaten yet. The "I'm full!" picture made me laugh. Thank you so much for keeping us all posted.

Your CD offload and magnet story are just more examples of "you being you"

Andy so reminds me of many parts of one of my favorite books "The Little Prince". This is one I think about everytime I read about some way he touches someone else's life. His little ways of reaching out are such a gift:

"I am a fox," said the fox. "Come and play with me," proposed the little prince. "I am so unhappy." "I cannot play with you," the fox said. "I am not tamed." "Ah! Please excuse me," said the little prince. But, after some thought, he added: "What does that mean, 'tame'?"

"It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. It means to establish ties." "'To establish ties'?" "Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world..."

Great thread!!

Well, it has been a lot of fun so far; I finally have a few moments to chat.

First of all the Royal Suite surprise was a huge success. I managed to get through check-in and the porters without a hitch. Joyce(famof8) happened to be in area so she took video us walking up to the Roy suite and she followed my family around the suite. This was totally unplanned, but worked out great. She already burned the video to disc and gave it to me. When I get back I will post the video to my website.

Castaway Cay was a lot of fun and the Welcome Aboard and Michael Harrison shows were great too. We just had Palo Brunch so we are "fat and happy"

The highlight of the cruise was the jacuzzi tub in the master bathroom (it is not what you think).

After CC we came back to the suite and put Catherine and Sarah in the tub. We add lots of bubble bath and turned on the Jacuzzi. The whole scene looked liked something out of "I Love Lucy". Suds were everywhere and the girls had a blast. We took video which I will also post since you can't see anything but their heads above the suds. Very hysterical.

It is Monday afternoon and we are on our way to Costa Maya. Hopefully I will check in later in the week.
