Trip Report ***BOOM, DONE***No, Its not Déjà vu. It’s just that time of year again…the 20th surf ’n turf part deux. And we’re live now!

You were with us for the 16th, 17th, the epic bungalow 18th, the 19th, and the 20/40 so why not...do it again.

I went back and forth on covering this one, TR fatigue has been biting me in the butt lately. I figured, though, that with the amount of new things we are considering for this trip it may be worthwhile to give it another go. With that, lets get the formalities out of the way for the newbs:

Who: @imahistorygeek and myself

What: Surf 'n turfing a 4-night Disney Dream
When: Oct. 20 -27
Where: AKL, Dream, AKL
Why: Well, going to the bubble in the Fall for our anniversary has kinda grown on us. We will be at sea for our actual 20th!

As I alluded to we had some decisions to make for this trip like:
Drive or Fly
Palo or Remy
MNSSHP or Jiko
Get off at Nassau or Stay on the boat?
Homecomin' or Homecomin'

Watching The Muppets Movie now as I write this... can you really watch this without singing!?!? A filet of fish, hey!

Mas details to follow, like how many have signed up for the beer exchange!

I've only seen Goonies once and remember shockingly little (typical from my mush brain...). Might need to revisit it!

I'd like to say the mush brain gets better, but I'm pretty sure pregnant brain just turns to mommy brain and that's not much better

@lostpro9het

Your Sox are doing great! Price looked very good last night and Cora keeps pushing all of the right buttons!

 

[lostpro9het]

I know.....please don't hate me! There are a lot of films that were really popular when I was growing up that I didn't see until adulthood. Pretty in Pink, Weird Science, The Breakfast Club, Pretty Woman, Dirty Dancing, 16 Candles....I never did see the PeeWee Herman movies. OH!!! Footloose. I DID watch The Princess Bride when I was at a friend's house without telling my mom....it's one of my favorites now.

Inconthievable!

Well you just named most of my favorites... Pretty in Pink, Pretty Woman, 16 Candle, Some kind of Wonderful, and Footloose!

OMG, time to rewatch it!

Based on MLB.com and half the cruisers on this ship, yeah the Sox are smashing it! Thankfully I can catch the rest of the series starting Saturday.

This pretty much sums up our day so far:

Mommy brain is NO JOKE either!

I've always been this way, so I just have to pray I don't get worse

And we’re back!

Had a fantastic cruise with ridiculously great weather. More details to follow. We’re currently in our Disney whip about to head to Kidani! Probably hit up EC to get our passholder magnets before dinner at Sanaa and an evening at HS.

 

[lostpro9het]

At EC now getting our trashcan beer tasting on before we head to MK.

 

[Zipadeelady]

I can't believe you're back already, but it's advising week here so crazy busy. Can't wait to hear more.

By the way, from the looks of that trash can beer, you have some catching up to do.

That does stink! Weve got Sanaa around 5 then heading to HS for the evening. Have safe travels if we dont connect!

 

[mcstensrud]

Me Too!

[Notes from Neverland]

Great to see Tony from Spain! He was one of our favorites on the Dream.

Read this too late! On the bus to AKL to get ready for HS

I’m with ya! I had the privilege of picking him up last night during the 80’s challenge and might have knocked the wind out of him as i did. He was well enough by the silent disco to take this selfie

Enjoy Sanaa! It's one of our favorites!

Thanks! We just moved it to 9:15 so we can have more time at HS since they are closing at 8:00 for some dumb reason.”!

Sadly we have an 09:55 flight out tomorrow. Im sure our visit habits will have is crossing paths again soon.

 

[Zipadeelady]

NOOOO, Can't you both just stay there for all of us.

 

[lostpro9het]

Sad but true. I've got many pics and a few videos to cover so there is more to come. Our flight has been delayed by about 20 minutes so we have a few more minutes in central Florida. We had a good evening at HS last night as well as a fine dinner at Sanaa. 22 days til Disneyland and 66 days til we head back to Beach Club for a week after New Years so our Disney depression should be short lived. Lots of great experiences from this trip but I'll cover that in a day or so.
