Wasn't sure where to put this but...

Our trip is in 10 days. I have everything set the way I want it except I was hoping for the Wishes Dessert Party. I've been checking compulsively for a while now.

When I first booked I had considered the Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage. I left it on my Wish List but for some reason I haven't been thinking about it lately.

Then this morning, after refreshing the dessert party page a dozen times, I started reading about the Pirates and Pals again and realized that ds would absolutely love it (and so would I)!

I called the number and fully expected it to be all booked up. I checked one day. Full. I checked a second day. No cruise that night (it's a Wednesday). Then I checked a third day and got the reservation! As I look at my dates, it really is the best night (out of our 10) for us to do it.

I am just SOOO excited.

We did Pirates and Pals during our 2010 trip. DD absolutely loved Peter Pan and she was so surprised and overwhelmed with excitement when Peter Pan was at the dock when we returned from the cruise. The fireworks and cruise was wonderful but the look on DDs little face when she saw Pan, priceless!!!

Have a great time!!!
 
Sounds exciting!! We did pirates and pals last year and it was a lot of fun! I hope you have a great trip!!:)
 
Thank you! Thanks for sharing your experiences. I've read great reviews about it.

I just feel that the trip keeps getting better and better. I certainly hope it lives up to our expectations!
 

You all will really enjoy it. We did it last year with then 3 and 6 year old grandsons. They loved it. We did too. A really nice, fun evening. :cool1:
 
I've done all the many fireworks cruises multiple times over the years and Pirates and Pals is one of my favorites!:thumbsup2:thumbsup2
Snacks, drinks, Hook and Smee beforehand, a comfortable boat and fun interaction (games and prizes) with our Pirate for the kids on the ride out (and great view of the water barge light parade), great sound piped in and wonderful view of the fireworks even from the farthest seat on the opposite side of the boat (I was worried about that one, so of course that's the seat I got lol). Then meeting Pan to top off a wonderful night.:goodvibes Enjoy!!!
