airlink diva Posted May 1, 2018 #26 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Glad to see your reviews. Used intel from your last set of sailings to book my excursion in Rotan later this year. So glad to see another overnight driver! I work graveyard so used to being up during the night. I often leave between 10:30 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. depending on where I'm heading by passing traffic often. Planning on the same later this year. I do historic research and want to visit two national cemeteries and plan to be at first one right at 8:00 am. Will check back often for updates. Looking at sailing out of Tampa next year. Luckly I have relatives in the area and will get dropped off at the port and leave my car in their garage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jedi bobs Posted May 1, 2018 #28 Share Posted May 1, 2018 seems like we go at the same time, but on difftent ships, I was on the Dream on April 8th, and I'm on the Paeadise Nov 5th to Rotan and Cozmel. Looking forward to how the Paradise looks, can't be all that diffrent from any other Fantacy class ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attran99 Posted May 1, 2018 #29 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Thanks to some of your help, we had a great Spring Break on the Magic. Might I suggest Uber/Lyft while traipsing around Orlando? We used it with great success. For 4 people or less, it could be as low as $6-7 from nearby hotels. My cousins used it and it was $6, and we were about 3 miles away from CityWalk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted May 1, 2018 Author #33 Share Posted May 1, 2018 The next morning we woke up to a beautiful day. After having breakfast at the buffet again, we hopped into the van and drove over to Disney Springs….. We parked in the parking garage (it’s free), then made our way to take the water transportation over to the Market Place…… Here are some views as we cruised over to the Market Place…..

Cap'n Ron Posted May 1, 2018 #40 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Thank you Jamman54 for sharing your adventures with us!

Rare Jamman54 Posted May 1, 2018 Author #41 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Patti continues to explore…… After she came back to the Boathouse we had a very nice lunch there. Afterwards we made our way back to the van to head back to the hotel. Patti, who is a Disney girl at heart, had gotten her Disney fix. We took the long way back, opting to drive the length of International Drive. So many things have changed here in the last few years. Once back at the hotel we spent the rest of the day hanging out and relaxing. We weren’t hungry for dinner so just did some snacks. Only two more days until we board the Paradise! To be continued…..

The cats haven't left Patti alone since we got home. :D Are you ready to re-live our great cruise? I bet you are! :D The game last night was a heck of a lot better than suffering through the game Saturday afternoon. It will be interesting to see if they can keep up that intensity in Boston Wednesday night. Not only are we ready to re-live our great cruise with you and Patti on the Paradise but also looking forward to your review of the Conquest. Really looking forward to our cruise with you and Patti on the Pride, 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TONYnDEB Posted May 2, 2018 #50 Share Posted May 2, 2018 As always, looking forward to your awesome review and Patti's fabulous pictures! I'm looking forward to pics of the "new" Paradise, as Tony and I will be sailing her in October. Glad you enjoyed City Walk and Disney Springs. We love going to City Walk for dinner occasionally, the Chocolate Emporium is to-die-for and our youngest daughter is a hostess at Margaritaville, so we like to hang out there as well. Thank you for the review! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
