Disney Cruise 2009

Disney Magic

I can't believe our long awaited cruise has come and gone. It was so much fun! We went on a 7 night Western Caribbean Disney Cruise...what more could you ask for?!?! We sailed on the Disney MAGIC. Our ship took us to Key West, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, and Castaway Cay (Disney's Island). Dave and I had so much fun just being together and not having to answer cell phones, e-mail, school work, etc! The whole time we did not have one drop of rain...all sunshine! Dave of course lathered his Spf 50 on each day and I soaked up the rays with tanning oil spf 8!!! For those of you who don't know...Dave is so anti sun-tans! Funny he would go on a Caribbean cruise, I know! We went snorkeling in Grand Cayman, AWESOME! We also rode a thrill boat in Key West. Dave twisted my arm and we both took advantage of the on board vista spa! HEAVEN! We met so many people from all over the world. Friends from England, Germany, Australia, California, and Canada. For those of you who have never sailed with Disney Cruise Line you truly are treated like royalty! It is quite the reality check when you get home. On board you have 2500 passengers and 1000 crew members (disney language=cast members). The Disney crew comes from over 56 countries!! Very neat to meet all of them. They truly are the reason Dave and I chose Disney Cruise Line again, besides the magic of Disney! As you can see I have posted quite a few pics...at least you didn't get all 260 of them. Here we go...
"The Grand Dessert"-they had so much food and the detail was unreal!
