Yall, I have taken some awesome vacations in my life but this Disney Cruise was the BEST THING EVER!
Let me give you a bit of the story about how this came to be!
One of my BFF's and Partners in Crime Shalon messaged me on October 18 saying she had just gotten an email with an amazing deal on a Disney Cruise. She knew that I had never cruised before and it was on my bucket list. I asked how amazing and when she told me, I knew that I had to make this work. The kicker was that it was sailing in 16 days!!! YEAH!!!!! So with some quick phone calls to James's Boss and a convo with my wonderful Boss, we were booked, along with the OTHER partner in Crime Shelley on The Disney Fantasy for a 7 Night Eastern Caribbean Cruise!! I could NOT BELIEVE THIS! I will say that booking 16 days out was well worth it because we only had a short time to wait. I can not IMAGINE people who book years out ... I would die of anticipation.
I spent those 16 days researching the ports and decorations for our doors, food options, excursions and everything DCL I could get my hands on! I broke my own rules and stalked the DisBoards ( who is I still cant stand. Bunch of crazies who refuse to let anyone have their own opinions) But I used it as reference of what to pack and what to expect!
This was also the FIRST Vacation James and I have EVER taken together. We have never been out of the state together except when we moved to Florida from New Hampshire. This was a huge deal to us!
So On November 2 we Shipped out of Port Canaveral on our First EVER Disney Cruise!!! Here are some of my most favorite pictures of the cruise!!
The First of MANY Free Soft Serve cones! I was a fan of Strawberry, with a small shot of chocolate topped with Vanilla! 11-11 daily... amazing
