2019-2020 Disney Cruise Part 2

12-28-19  This day was a day at sea, so we got to see lots of characters!!  Jacen also got to go to the Bippity Boppity Boutique to be dressed up as a Captain.  The rest of the day the crew on board addressed him as Captain and asked who was manning the ship since he was not!!  It was lots of fun!!  There was even this nice crew member who addressed him as Captain the rest of the cruise!!!
This lady was talking to Jacen like he was the Captain as well!!
Chilling before going to Anna and Elsa :)  I had to get pics of Animator's Palate where we got to see Anna and Elsa.  I just love the details!  Jacen changed his clothes because his autograph pen got on the Captain outfit, and he absolutely didn't want to wear since it was dirty now!
They were very interactive and asked him lots of questions.  He must have been thinking really hard :)
Jacen loved the elevators.  This is one of the aft elevators which shows you what floor it is on with a Mickey hand!
This was formal night at Tiana's place.  The decor and entertainment was great!!  We had a great family at our table with us for the whole cruise who also had a 10 year old boy!!!!  He and Jacen had a great time together!
Picture with the Captain!
More family photos on formal night!
And the nightly towel pic!!!

2019-2020 Disney Cruise Part 1

12-26-19 We started out our trip by driving to Galveston where my dear friend Laura and her family met us for dinner and dessert.  It was so great to see her and catch up!!!!
12-27-19  The next morning we headed for the ship!!  Kyle got a good pic of the Disney Wonder outside, Jacen was fascinated with watching them load the ship with lots of food, and we got a few character pics before we even got on the ship!!!!
Once on the boat, we ate lunch and Jacen wanted to see all levels of the ship!!!  We stopped by the Oceaneer Club/Lab where Jacen ended up spending lots of hours!!  He loved that place and would have spent more time there if we would have let him!!!!
Jacen looking out the glass elevator.  He loved the midship elevators since they were glass!
Daddy preordered some Christmas decorations to be in our room when we arrived to surprise Jacen!!!
More exploring!!!
Real gingerbread house!!!
I took this pic to show all of the decorations in the main area on this Christmas Merrytime cruise.  It was beautiful!
Then it was time for the Sail-A-Wave Party!!!  There were lots of characters and dancing.  It was a lot of fun!
Countdown!!!
Jacen dancing with lots of other kids!!!
Daddy and Jacen watching us leave port in the fog!
Our first dinner service was in Animator's Palate.  This was the same ship that Kyle and I sailed on in 2002, so it was great to experience this same ship again as well as enjoying the upgrades.  I think this is still my favorite of the 3 dining areas.
Our first towel creation by our awesome hostess Shandene!!!
Couple pic in front of the tree after dinner.  Jacen had already gone to the Oceaneer Club so no family pic this time!
