Cruisin' Part 1

With this being our 3rd Disney cruise and the fact that we were beyond exhausted, we slept in and took our time getting packed and checked out of CBR. We get everything together and have just enough time to get to the port without rushing. We start to head out only to realize that the GPS has locked up. The touch screen would not work. Since we'd never gone to the port from that specific area, we had no idea of how to get there. After much urging, Jay goes in to the DCL castmember at the resort and gets directions.
We get there in plenty of time to board and take in the Christmas decorations they had up.


We were so stuffed from a week of gorging that nothing in the buffet looked appealing and we walked out of there with only dessert.

We weren't as pumped about the sail away party due to exhaustion. We go there late and had to party off to the side. It was chilly, cloudy and almost nightfall and all I was thinking about were the 2 loads of laundry I had washing at that moment. I couldn't believe that they raised the cost of a load from $1.50 (wash AND dry) to $4 a load (wash and dry). Also, when they dry docked, they switched out the way you pay- instead of quarters, you slide your room key. Convenient, yes but we were unprepared as we had brought several dollars in quarters. The show for the evening was The Golden Mickeys. The girls hadn't seen it yet so they wanted to go. We were all feeling sick by then, so much so that it was almost too much to take. We had late dinner, something we wanted to try and realized we did not like! Poor Rebecca felt so bad that she looked miserable and barely ate anything. Good thing too because she threw it up into her jacket sleeves on the way out of the restaurant.
Yuck and another $4 spent to clean it.
We all slept so soundly that night that we practically missed breakfast the next day.
