Disney Cruise 2011

We got up on Sunday morning, June 6th, To begin our latest adventure !
After an early breakfast  , we gassed up , and, began our drive over to Reno, NV.   we decided to go early enough so that  we could go  to the Disney store and get Mandy her "Credit Card" aka a Gift Card, so that she would have her own $$'s to spend on the cruise..

Next stop was over to the Best Western by the Airport. We settled in for the evening, which was going to be a short one !   at 3AM  we got up  and ready for the 1st part of our journey. we flew  to Orlando, FLA. transferring in Salt Lake City.

 The plane we flew on for the 1st leg of our journey

  spent the evening there at the Hyatt Regency ,  and got up Tuesday morning to catch our ship, The Disney Dream, our home for the next 5 days, stopping  in Castaway Cay ( Disney's own Island ) , then on to  Nassau, Bahamas and back to another fun day at Castaway Cay  before returning home to Florida.  5 days of more Family Fun than I remember having in a long time !! our 1st stop in Castaway Cay, we rented tubes on the beach, it was so awesome .

1st day at Castaway Cay. the water was chilly but it felt SO Good !!!

 The Dream is a BEAUTIFUL ship, a small city on the water, is the best way to describe it !! EVERYONE was so nice and went out of their way  to make sure that we  ALL had a Fantastic time, and they out did  themselves  to make sure that LOTS of good memories were made !!
