We Started Out

Even though Ed and I have cruised before, you forget how massively huge the ships are.  And while our previous cruise was nice, Disney Cruise Line knows how to make the entire process from start to finish - amazing.  Quick and easy on the boat, with Minnie waiting with open arms!  Josie was smitten from first sight.

Our stateroom was a fairly standard verandah room, which was quite a bit larger than the equivalent rooms on our previous cruise.  It was a perfect fit for the three of us, with a double bunk even! 

One of our first stops was to sign Josie up for the Oceaneers Club.  We could have left her there day and night if we had wanted (we didn't ;)), Disney made it super easy, fun, and secure for parents to drop kids of any age off, at any time.  The first night they allowed families to come into the Club to check things out.  Andy's room, really cool. Pixie Hollow and a ton of other play areas kept Josie on the run and quite happy :)

On our second day, we were docked in the Bahamas with no intention of disembarking - we enjoyed our day aboard at the pool, eating unlimited ice cream, watching funnelvision (jumbo screen, pools side with Disney movies all day) Food, ice cream, characters, Andy's room - made for an overwhelming day of choices on what to do next.   That's Nemo playing now...

The boat had two pools, several slides, and even a water "ride" the Aqua Duck.  You can see the tunnel above Josie in the next picture. 

And completely perfect for the munchkin set - Nemo's Reef - a splash pad with many interactive areas.  A good afternoon was wasted away here.

Did I mention an ice cream bar, unlimited, a dozen flavors... walk right up, help yourself.  yes. and thank you.  My diet started today, true story :)

I think we all napped. Every day of the trip.
