Day 1 and 2 – Los Angeles to Anchorage to Whittier I woke up crazy early on departure day, around 2:30 am! I drove to LA and made my early flight. Which was longer than I expected! I feel like LA is so close to both...
Day 8 – Castaway Day Today was the last day of our trip ☹ We were worried about not making it to Castaway Cay because of rough waters, but we woke up and were docking! We ran off the ship to claim a section of beach. We decided...
Day 7 – Happy Thanksgiving! Happy Late Thanksgiving Day 2013! We had an extremely rough night at sea the night before, so none of us slept too well. But we had the best possible start to our morning, so no complaints here! Us Whiting’s are some pretty die-hard...
Day 6 – Beaching in Cozumel We were at Cozumel this day! It was extremely windy, and we didn’t really have a plan for the day. We only knew we wanted to make it to a beach! We slept in, and then got off the boat around 10:30. We...
Day 5 – Gingerbread House Building! Today we were in Costa Maya! There was a time change this morning, so everyone woke up at weird times. Tammy spent some time on the Verandah until enough people were up to go eat. Breakfast was at Cabana’s! Most of the family...
Day 4 – Stingray City! This day will probably be a little familiar to anyone who keeps up with Tammy’s trip reports! We were going on our own, non-Disney excursion, that we liked so much we did again the next year. We were chartering a boat to...
Day 3 – Fancy Night Stephen and Tammy started their morning early by going to the Gold Member Reception. I desperately wanted to eat brunch at Royal Court, because I was dying for some Eggs Benedict. When my parents came back to the room, I sprang out...
Day 2 – First is Best! In all of Tammy’s excitement, she was wide awake at 6 AM! She tried her best to not wake us up, but must have gotten desperate at some point. We all got ready, and headed down to Chick-fil-a for some breakfast....
Day 1 – Traveling Day Much to my dismay, we had a brutally early flight, which was delayed. We ended up in the very last row, and we must attribute the earliness of this phone picture as to why Stephen is the only decent looking one. Finally,...
Day 5 - Get Off!! Shoot! They were really going to make us get off today! I didn’t ever want this weekend to end! We woke up pretty early and I opened all the curtains! We were back! After I finished getting ready, I tried to think of what...
Day 4 – Cabanas and Palo Soufflés Today is the perfect last day of a cruise! Castaway Cay with cabanas! We had originally booked the Grand Cabana and the one next door for our group, but they were still being repaired from the hurricane, so we couldn’t...
Day 3 – Day of Palo Brunch and Enjoying the Suite It was Nassau day! But we had no plans in Nassau. My main goal was to enjoy this suite while we had it. We had Palo brunch in the morning, but after that we planned...
Day 2 – Royal Suite, Here We Come! We woke up so early! I was sleeping hard when the alarm went off at 6:30! Which wasn’t really early, but it felt like 3:30 am to us! But hey. It was my birthday! I was going to make...
Day 1 - Yacht Club and Homecomin' It was time! Finally! Stephen and I drove down to LA the night before our crazy early flight! After we checked in, we grabbed some Chick-fil-a and headed to our gate. SD-14 was along for the trip of course! At some...
Day 8 - Rainy Day of Games It was our last Hawaii day! Sadness! The boys were outside. And then right after I took these, the rain started. And didn’t stop. Allllllll day. Dang it, Joan! We played games all morning and then went to Subway for lunch. Chase and...
