Trip Report More Fun than I ever Imagined on the Re-Imagined Magic!

It’s time for a trip report on the brand new Disney Magic!! Okay not-quite-as-new-as-if-I’d-written-this-report-in-October Disney Magic!


Sorry. I’m only a couple of trips behind now at least!


Who: Myself, Heather and Missy! Here’s our (bad) phone selfie!





What: The inaugural sailing of the reimagined Disney Magic. It actually wasn’t supposed to be the inaugural sailing but the inaugural sailing was cancelled due to damage the ship sustained when crossing the ocean. I hated that for those booked, but I was not sad to be the first ones onboard!


Where: A two night cruise to nowhere out of Miami! Short and sweet. Our motto was no time for sleep! We could sleep when we got home.

Oh wow! You're totally killing me with all this awesomeness! The details, the swag!, the friends, the fooooooood (thank you, now I'm hungry again)....I'm ready to go. Let's go. Like seriously. Let's just go. LOL!

I agree, let's all go! Oh wait, we are! Come on September!

The show in Animation is one of the things I love about the new Magic!

Day 3 – Sailing to Nowhere


Man a two night cruise is a short cruise! This was our only full day onboard!


Heather never met an article of clothing with an anchor on it that she didn’t like, so she was wearing an adorable anchor dress.

True words. May or may not have already started to accumulate more anchor clothing for Norway.....

That's right...genius. I'm a dessert genius!!! Haha.

Totes.

Totally agree! (But I have recently fallen in love with a different Disney Vera...)

I am loving your trip report!! We just got off the Fantasy 10 days ago, but I'm totally ready for a cruise on the Magic. She looks beautiful

Thank you, djpoore94! I'm sorry, you must be going through Post-Disney withdrawals.

I agree, let's all go! Oh wait, we are! Come on September!

Come on!!

Thank you, Shannon!

[joanna71985]

So jealous! I would love to see Aulani. Can't wait to see pictures

 

[Tiggerfanatic]

Maybe I should add Aulani to my Tokyo Disney/Disneyland California trip next year! I am going to Hawaii on the way to Japan.

I’m back! I’m going to finish in the next couple of days, I promise!!

After snacking and relaxing we walked around and took pictures for a while.

We watched AquaDunk riders for quite a while.

The family pool was hopping.



Look how calm the water was.











No one was in the crew pool:

 

[Disneyfalcon]

The adult pool was pretty quiet too so that’s where we headed next.








We sat in the pool and talked to our table mate for quite a while as well. We had a great time meeting people and getting to know them on this cruise!

We also ran into Lou Mongello and chatted a bit as well.

While we were up top wandering I turned around to see if I’d lost Heather and Missy while taking pictures. Look who was behind them! Captain Robert!



When Heather saw me lift the camera, being the reserved person she is, she immediately started dancing.




And came within about 4 inches of clocking Captain Robert who was walking faster than she was. I didn’t get a picture of that because I put my camera down to gasp.

And then I cracked up of course.

 

[Disneyfalcon]

Can't have too many pictures of the funnels right?








We also saw Joe Lanzisero riding the AquaDunk over and over while being filmed. He's in the back going up the stairs.



Who is Joe Lanzisero you ask? Well the creator of the AquaDunk and AquaDuck! We stalked him a little for this photo –

I present the creator of the AquaDunk – on the AquaDunk.


Cool right?

 

[Disneyfalcon]

Heather rode the AquaDunk and then we all got in the hot tub. I think Heather is up there!




This is not Heather. #noswimsuitpics







We saw Lou filming and tried to photobomb but we failed, so we moved on.

We had a little bit before we had to get ready for dinner so we needed to try the Twist and Spout!


It was really well done! Not too fast for kids, but not too boring either.






Here goes Heather!



After we twist and spouted, we went to the room to change for dinner.

Up next – dinner at Carioca’s! Thanks for reading!

Now I'm back! But I just read your lovely report!!! Tammy, it is great and seriously getting me really excited to cruise on the Magic next June. I am not a fan of the chandelier...if you can call it that...but I'm so excited to explore a different ship! I'm determined to get on the Aquadunk (do they still let you in the pools if it's colder?) i know it's only going to be like 50ish up in Norway but I want to try it once!

I am most excited for Animators...when I always used to see tv specials and such for cruises before I ever tried one that was the thing that always stood out to me changing from Black and White to colored...I mean it's cool on the Dream, but I'm not a huge fan of Finding Nemo so the Animator's on the Magic is where it's at!

Your pictures are just AMAZING! What do you guys do with it when you go in the pool? Do you leave it all on a chair?

Andy's room looks so much fun! I love how they did everything from the perspective of being a toy on the floor.

Thanks for helping ease my disney depression (two weeks and it's still hitting me hard) and getting me excited for the cruise! I have a feeling it's going to go by super fast! I don't even know where to begin!!!

Can't wait to hear about the rest of this report!

Oooooh....lovin' the pics, Tammy! Love that you got the creator of the AquaDunk ON the AquaDunk. Good work! Never too many funnel pics. When I saw the pics of Heather with the captain behind I was thinking "Oh watch her clock him...." Close! That was funny! Is it just me or are those high tables with stools precariously close to the kiddie play pool thing? Whoever is sitting there is pretty sure to get wet, huh? Hurry up and get to Carioca's already! I'm dying to see more of it and hear all about the service! Last September when Tracey & I were on the Fantasy we talked to a server we recognized from the Magic. We were talking about the new format for Carioca's and he said there was some ongoing debate as to the servers walking around the dining room with the skewers of meats and potential sharp objects. In rough seas.......! Ya know?

Again, your pics are fabulous. Totally lovin' it! Now let's see if you get done before you start your next adventure!
