Disney Cruise

I got a crazy idea, very last minute, to see if I could find a vacation for our family for the week Mackenzie was out of school 3 days for teacher prep. I checked Vacations To Go and found this last minute deal on the Disney Magic. So, 10 days before departure I booked the trip. We even found great, cheap flights out to Orlando. It seemed like the stars aligned for us to go on the trip. So we took off Friday, Jan. 30th for Orlando and boarded the boat Sat. Jan. 31st. We cruised from Port Canaveral to St. Croix, then St. Thomas, and Castaway Cay in the Bahamas. We also had 3 days at sea. We flew back on Saturday, February 7th. It was a great trip. But truth be told, it was exhausting for me and Dave. Hopefully our next family vacation will be less tiring! We even got to fly with the Lannans and the Hares out to Orlando. They were going on the 4 day cruise and were going to the parks the other days. Here's Mackenzie with Brynn and Trisha.
Here's the girls with Minnie in the cruise terminal.
This was taken just outside the theater right before the Golden Mickeys.
Dinner at Lumiere's.
Our outing to the Oceanarium in St. Thomas. Check out those iguanas!

Wow that is a fast booking process. I think that was just enough time to announce the trip to the kids, get them all riled up and then pack your bags.
It looks like they had fun, and I can't believe how big they are getting. How exciting.

Such a fun trip, huh!! We only did the 4 day cruise and spent three days at the parks. I would TOTALLY skip the parks next time. Cruise was much more fun (and relaxing than walking parks for three days). Looks like you guys had a great time. SOOOO wish we had gone with you!
