Disney Dream (April 30-May 3)

Monday, April 30
The first night, wasn't all that lovely, when it came to falling asleep.  It was a bit rough, and both me and Kai, could feel the boat rocking all night (on a good note, that was the only night we felt that way).  The plan was to enjoy the Bahamas to the fullest that day.  It was Kai's first time there and I wanted to make the best of it.  Unfortunately, it rained and rained...........and did not STOP!!  Ugh.  What a way to mess up my plans.  Good thing I didn't book any excursions.  However, Kai was going to step foot on the Bahamas, even if it was for just a second.  I didn't take any pictures while on the island, because I did not take my phone/camera with me.  I was not taking the chance of it getting wet.  But I will admit, that I did regret not taking it.  I was going to buy a disposable camera from one of the shops, but didn't feel $15 was worth it.  We stayed on the land for about an hour and I decided it was time for us to get back on the boat.  I can only handle heavy rain for so long.  Luckily, the crew decided to do an early showing of one of the show's (Villian's Tonight!).

Today was a much prettier/nicer day.  The sun was out and the rain was gone.  I had wanted to run the 5K on Castway Cay, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to because I had Kai (which was perfectly fine) and the child center wasn't open.  So, we got off the boat.  Enjoyed a nice long walk from the boat.  There were tons of characters on the way.  Kai saw Captain Jack Sparrow and Pluto.  We walked to the water area where there was a gigantic water slide.  Oh my God!!  It was FUN!  We only enjoyed it once, because the water was beyond freezing and obviously, the water was a bit deep for Kai, even with a life jacket.  After walking around a little bit, I went ahead and dropped Kai off at the children's area, where he played around with Disney friends, while I ran 1.5 miles.  I wanted to run the 5K route, but got lost and confused, and ended up not where I wanted to go.  I then went and laid out on a hammock and soaked up some sun!  It was a nice hour of relaxation.  Then, I decided to go ahead and pick up my big boy.  We went to the room, cleaned up, and got ready for Pirate Night :) at dinner and a Pirate Night on the pool deck.

Today was Day at the Sea.  Kai hung out at the lab/club, while I spent time just relaxing and resting, and enjoying a cooking show of lobster ravioli.  Enjoy the pictures :)  This was our last night on the boat!

All and all, the trip was AWESOME and I can't believe its been two months already since we went on the boat.  I can't wait to plan our next Disney cruise with Mimi :)
