DaveInTN 3,247 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Great morning pix. Beautiful.Can't wait to hear about Cocos.I wovve the early morning phone calls.Brilliant!!!My BIL did that to us one time at a hotel. I wish I would have thought about calling him the next morning. I've got to remember that. Lol.I did the next day out out the little card ordering him breakfast to be delivered at 6:00 am. I ordered him sunny side up eggs because he hates eggs.Vengeance is sweet. Sunny side up eggs for someone who hates eggs would be a disgusting thing to see on your plate. Nicely played. How fun to wake up and look at your sunrise over the ocean photos. While I was looking at them the Gloria Patri was running through my head. "Praise God from whom all blessings flow!" Thanks, Dave! Glad I could sweeten your morning, Marty! Could you have gone in the pools at that hour if you wanted to? What about the rock wall? Is the track open 24/7?The ship looks huge, especially the adult pool area. Makes me think of a floating luxury hotel. Ok, I guess it is. My only cruise experience is the Dream and I didn't feel that way on that ship. Thanks for this TR. I'm weighing Disney vs. RCCL for our next cruise so I'm paying close attention. I'm mainly considering RCCL because of price, although also thinking whether my teen boys are too "old" for Disney cruise and would find more to do on another ship. Does bungee / rock wall cost extra $ ?. I'll admit I would have done the same thing as revenge toward those jerks. Although maybe not as many times because I would be afraid that if they had any brain cells left they might have figured out and there would be more early am knocks on the door, or worse. No, the pools were closed then. They had netting over the steps to try to keep people out. Likewise, the rock wall was closed, as was the bungee jump. Those had posted hours and were staffed during those times to ensure safely. They were gated off during closed times. And no, those features did not cost extra and one was free to use them as often as they liked during the open hours. The track is just a designated walking/jogging loop in Deck 10 that is open at all times. It's not a very long loop, but it was a nice enough surface for someone who wanted to get a run in. They also used it for a group walk later in the cruise that was a fund raiser for Make a Wish. I thought that was nice. They raised several thousand dollars during the cruise. Sounds like you are weighing all of the Disney vs RCCL aspects as we did before this trip. I hope that by the end of this report I've helped you with your decision in some way. Oh, I would have been ANGRY to be woken up like that. I have the same problem falling back asleep as you. Good job getting them back. Assholes.Love the morning pictures. We've learned something about Kelly this morning. She's not afraid of using the more color aspects of the English language. LOL! Nicely done. But Mrs. TCD would not be amused.

GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 You're right. I probably shouldn't have said that. Oops. I'm tired this morning, so it was easy to think how mad I'd be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I absolutely loved running in circles on the Dream, dodging people and shuffleboards along the way. Awesome about them raising so much money for MAK. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Your phone calls are classic. I wish we had video of both ends of those calls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hotmamac aka Misty 11 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 It must be all that sand she's been eating. TCDLOL! Must be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Seriously, next time you are going to make phone calls like that, at least be alittle more considerate. Next time, record it for the amusement of your devoted fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hotmamac aka Misty 11 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Revenge is so fun! I keep saying "woom service" to myself and giggling - you just made my day! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LOL....never mess with a tired Mama. Do you remember how many laps it was to a mile on the loop? Just curious. I absolutely loved running in circles on the Dream, dodging people and shuffleboards along the way. Awesome about them raising so much money for MAK. I don't know how many laps it was, and I never ran it. Didn't even bring running clothes on this trip. I wanted a break. Your phone calls are classic. I wish we had video of both ends of those calls. Video would have been funny for sure. Well, to some of us anyways. LOL! Must be. I never knew sand was so nutritious. Seriously, next time you are going to make phone calls like that, at least be alittle more considerate. Next time, record it for the amusement of your devoted fans. What was I thinking? Revenge is so fun! I keep saying "woom service" to myself and giggling - you just made my day! Glad I could make you giggle, Misty! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
momof3kids-Yvonne 594 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 After seeing your beautiful pictures, I really want to go on another cruise. Of course I could do without the drunk idiots banging on my door at 3:00am. Loved your payback! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Excellent update. I loved each and every one of the sunrise photos. Awesome! Good job with your neighbors. Luckily, we've never had an experience like that. I don't think it is something that would be likely to happen on a Disney cruise. Looking forward to hearing about Coco Cay. I've been there a couple of times. I think I might even be able to dig up some old TCD moustache pics. You are correct that Mrs. TCD would not approve of GDF's choice of words. But, if she had been the one awakened at 3 am, she might let it slide just this once. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TCD There's a fine line between having enough sunrise photos and having too many. I hope I didn't cross it. I should be getting to Coco Cay in the next update, but I'm not sure when that will be. I'm flying home to Nashville at the moment, and have a busy evening ahead of me. We'll see. "you order woom service?" :rofl2: Your sunrise photos are beautiful! Thanks Gwen.

GOBA Mom Lynn 18 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Great photos so far. Love the sunrise shots. I never get up early enough for that. lol If anyone remembers, from the Cruises forum, I was just on the Grandeur of the Seas with my mother at the beginning of June. It is a sister ship to the Enchantment. It's interesting to see what changed when they did the enhancement. Here's the pool area on the Lady G (as she is called) And I agree about sitting in the Centrum. We spent a lot of time there. My mother and I would listen to the dance music every day before and after dinner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I see many similarities...with the most striking differences being to those two big bridges on Enhancement and the different canopies over the hot tubs. Anna loved the music every night before dinner. A little too much at times....as she tried (and succeeded once) getting up on stage with the singers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
