Live Carnival Magic Dec 31st-Jan 8th Whaletail sailing through the new year

[WhaleTailFlCruiser]

Welcome to another one of my rambly, picture heavy lives I will once again be aboard the Magic As I Sail through the new year and then Onto Aruba, Bonaire and then Amber Cove. Come Along as we ring in the new year :). 

 

 

I actually booked this cruise a Solid year ago before I booked my previous Magic Cruise that I took earlier this year. I have been looking quite regularly and this sailing has been booked solid for about a month. I also live about two and a half hours from PC so I don't normally book a Hotel room for the night before but I did so for this cruise as I looked at the PC cruise schedule and will be a very heavy day for PC. C.Magic, Mardi Gras, Wonder OTS and Jewl OTS As well as NCL Escape and finally Disney Fantasy. That traffic is going to be horrific. 

 

Side note I turn plat (I have that song line from Panic at the disco, Hey Maw I made it" LOl, this cruise so I was able to check in on the 15th of this month.

I have sailed with my mom who can't walk very far.  We get a wheelchair and a pusher at the beginning of embarkation at the port.  Very helpful and the pushers are always very nice.  I tip them $5 when we get on board.  Have a great cruise!!

We will be "cruisin into 2023" with you!  We are in New Port Richey so I appreciate the info about the traffic that day!  We will be driving over in the morning but will leave a bit earlier to compensate for it!

Eight days to go, It’s getting real. Three days from Christmas as well . Florida will be participating in winter this weekend highs won’t get out of the 40’s and lows in the 20’s which is cold as hell well at least for us. 

[WhaleTailFlCruiser]

Seven days to go!!!!!!

 

 Also, Marry Christmas everyone.

[SenatorsFan]

Merry Christmas to you, too! 🎄

Four days to go, I bought a new car today and had to run by Publix and buy a new SunPass for it.

Congrats on the new car!  For sure need that SunPass to drive to the port.

Thanks it wasn’t a planned buy lol, I stopped into a local Audi dealership and test drove an A4 they had and they cut me a good deal on it.
