day 7

early in the morning we packed up and said goodbye to our timeshare. it became our home away from home and it was sad to leave but we had an exciting adventure ahead of us...the cruise!

it was everyone's very first time on a disney cruise and all of us (yes, even the adults) were elated.  as we pulled up to port canaveral we could hardly contain ourselves.  there it was, the biggest and most beautiful ship we've ever laid eyes on.  it's called the disney dream and boy did it feel like a dream.

the check-in process was pretty painless and just like that the zaporteza/quinal family was announced and welcomed a board.  so what did we do first?  eat of course!


after our first meal that definitely did not disappoint we explored the ship for a bit.

the lobby.


the kids' club.


our staterooms.  door decorations provided by nanny lannie (aka our family travel agent).



then before we knew it, it was time to sail away and par-tay!!!



we were given these streamer things that everyone was supposed to simply wave around and say goodbye to those at port.  sounds quite simple and nice, right? well, leave it to one of my boys to turn it into a weapon and start battling their grandpa to a duel.  oy vey.

 


mmm....lava flows.


and finally...we're out at sea.
