Don't believe you don't remember Chanson d'amour or perhaps I only remember it as I hated it I was only 10! Rat ta ta ta tat

Thanks for the info on port canaveral and cocoa, we will definitely have a trip over there.

11 months and we will be onboard again

have any room in your suitcase for a stowaway???

Not sure but I think the Carnival Dream that left before the Fantasy was bigger. I prefer the older smaller ships, booked to go back on the Disney Magic next year, she is just going thru a refurb.

so you'll be on the refurbished magic! can't wait to see your pictures of all the changes...

for humongous ships, i liked the Allure of the Seas much better than the Dream..... the allure is designed to hold the crowds better....that is, i felt the crowds much more on the dream than i ever did on the allure...
also, the allure felt more stable as it's much wider relative to its height..

but for smaller ships, closer to the size of the wonder and magic, i much much much prefer the disney ships!!...

Karen just sang it to me, yes I had heard it before but had no idea who sang it.

Off to DHS now.

i just realised it's columbus day today..
i tried calling AT&T to order a new internet service for my mom's house and i got the "we're closed for the holiday" recording....had to think about it for a second...

loving the trip report, as usual and the photos of the birds and manatees are fab.

Whereabouts is Extended Stay on Idrive?

I have been looking at a "budget" suite - or at least a room with a kitchen. We want to stay on IDrive. I've looked at The Enclave Suites so far.

Um, ManTran: the sad fact I remember about them is that they were all left handed. How's that for a random fact????

Driving to the port is so easy, 1 road (SR528) https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=...LH6XgiDHBgBSKIpm5NQ&oq=port+ca&mra=ls&t=m&z=9
Costs $4.25 in tolls each way.
Weather is perfect getting upto 90 thru the day but not humid like August, around 80 in the evenings.



Highly recommend a trip to the port, Grills tiki bar has a great atmosphere Sat & Sun afternoons with live music, Karen had frozen strawberry daiquiri at $5.75, bottles of beer are $3.25 then when the ships leave a few people go to the veiwing deck to wave them off, yesterday we were stood next to a lady who heard our accents so wanted to know where we were from, past a bit of tme talking.

Thanks for the info Fab pictures of SeaWorld!

Sat by the pool now, I was in the sun but had to move into the shade after 10 mins, its so hot

A couple of bits of news on what Matt is upto back home. Earlier today he interviewed Commander Chris Hadfield, recently back from the International Space station where is was a big hit on social media with his tweets from space. His interview will be going on The National Student soon but under strict rules when it can go live, I will post when its on the site.
Other news is he (and some others) have formed a society at University called Making Memories at Lancaster University, they aim to raise money for charity to help families with a parent who has a terminal illness. Today members voted on positions within the society and Matt was voted President.

We followed Chris Hadfield through his tweets so we will look forward to Matt's interview.

Sounds like a great holiday Wayne. Really enjoying reading of your adventures.

This morning we went to DHS, being Columbus day we expected it being busy and it was. Stayed for lunch at Backlot Express then came back to the hotel for a swim.
Started by getting fastpasses for ToT then me doing RnRc single rider(walk on) it was then time for our fastpasses. Did Muppet 3D, Backlot tour, watched Mulch, Sweat & shears. Not a lot but it was hot & busy.
This evening ate at Applebees then went to DTD, bought a few things for Xmas(making use of AP discount) then called in Art of Disney to find David Doss, talked to him for a few minutes, now back in room having a bottle of wine



Me in Writers Stop, watching TV, eating carrot cake cookie & drinking a latte




















Cups with Halloween design


Our car, Chevy captiva
