The Disney Wonder

Well, we are back from the most amazing cruise vacation to celebrate our anniversary. We boarded the Disney Wonder on Thursday morning and had the day to explore and check out the ship. It was beautiful. Jeff and I could not get over how incredibly clean and well kept everything was. I think you could have eaten off the floor, it was sooo clean! We left Port Canaveral around 5:00. Here are some highlights of our trip.

This is from the front of the ship as we were leaving the port and headed through the canal to the Atlantic Ocean.

This is our room. We booked the least expensive room available, but truly could not believe how nice, clean, and big it was. It had a king size bed, couch, and small bathroom, but no window. I was a little worried about not having a window, but it did not bother us at all.
This was our sunrise as we approached Nassau's port on Friday morning.

This is Nassau's lighthouse. Look at that crystal clear water...just beautiful!

We decided to go on an excursion at Nassau and choose to go to Atlantis. Words cannot describe how incredible this resort is. There are several towers of rooms, a casino, several unique aquariums, gorgeous swimming lagoons, and beautiful beaches. We went straight to the beach for the morning and then walked around and explored that afternoon. Truly amazing!

We boarded the ship around 5:00 and overnight, the ship went to Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. This is the view as we arrived at Castaway Cay. The small ship at the corner was from the movie, Pirates of the Caribbean, the Flying Dutchman.


On Castaway Cay, there were several different beaches to explore. This is the family beach with an ocean playground. It looked so fun for the kids.
And this was the adult only beach. It was incredible! We basically had the beach to ourselves. The water was crystal clear...you didn't even need a snorkel and mask, you could just look down and see fish, giant starfish, sand dollars and urchins. Beautiful! We had the best time and are so thankful for mom and dad for keeping the boys for us. Now we just have to save up some more money so we can all go and take the boys next time!
