A Beautiful Day at Sea on the Disney Magic!










We had quite a lazy day at sea today. The weather is better than anything you could imagine. We woke up around 8:00am and lounged in the room (and waited for TRRs to appear – work stuff). We got Peyton some food from room service and took him to the camp around 10:30am. My Mom made us a reservation for Palo’s at 11:00am for brunch. It was fantastic. I had an asparagus soup that tasted incredible. I also enjoyed the fresh seafood – shrimp, Alaskan King crab and stone crab claws.

After brunch, we met a bunch of DISers on the secret deck for a gift exchange. We got everything from jelly bellys to magnets to key chains from everyone on the boards. Some people even got REALLY creative and made notepads with the dates of our cruise – very cute. All of us then headed up to the Roy Disney suite to meet a fellow DISer who was staying there during the cruise. The suite was awesome. It had two huge bedrooms and two bathrooms and was beautifully decorated. We met a lot of people – even one family whose luggage was lost. As bad as it was not having luggage in Paris, at least we have it for the cruise. I felt REALLY bad for them.

We finally dragged Peyton away from the kid’s camp to take him swimming – ok I told him I met a bunch of cute girls that were going to the pool. We sat in the hot tub and watched Cars on the aerial screen for a bit and munched on chicken, fresh Bing cherries and a ham Paninni.

After a quick nap, we skipped formal night in favor of a quick dinner at Topsiders. None of us were very hungry and the food was just ok. We then tried to pick Peyton up again at the camp to go to the Golden Mickey’s and failed. He just LOVES the camp. We are getting ready for bed now, but he STILL won’t leave the camp. It looks like they had a big party in the Oceaneer’s Club and he had a blast. His age group made chocolate chip cookies and Flubber (i.e. he made a MESS)! I am glad we decided not to try to take him on any excursions. I think he will have a MUCH better time in the camp.

Good night everyone!
