Our last few hours aboard the Disney Dream have arrived. For the breakfast on your final morning they tell you what time and where to eat based on where you ate the night before. Since our final dinner was in the enchanted garden, that is where we ate breakfast the next morning
The breakfast is a nice way to be able to say goodbye to your servers and new friends at your table. The servers really help make your trip memorable.
Here is our whole dining crew. We were often one of the last tables to clear out from our meals, I guess that means we enjoyed each others company.
This is a shot in the middle of the Enchanted Garden with Cupid Mickey behind us.
After breakfast we went up to the atrium and they announced a few minutes later we could get off the ship. To get off they scan your room key again to make sure your account is all settled up, so if you are not sure you can check the night before at guest services or before breakfast (warning: the lines can be long the last night). Breakfast was at 6:45 am and they mean business - promptly at 6:45am!
When we exited, you head into a large customs room to find your bags which are sorted by your stateroom numbers making it easy to find them. We were through customs in just a few minutes. We decided to grab a cab back to the rental car location rather than wait around for their shuttle. We had our car and were on the road back to Orlando by 8:30am!
It was raining hard most of our drive back to Orlando but we swung by Art of Animation to get a picture of the sign, because we would be there later in the month with the kids!
We stopped by Downtown Disney to do some quick shopping and Doug thought this might be the worst idea ever! I really worry about anybody that would want their car to smell like a turkey leg.
We then got lunch at Wolfgang Puck Express.
After some time at Downtown Disney, we drove over to the Polynesian where we had made a reservation at Kona Cafe. We ended up just getting a Dole Whip at Captain Cooks (Quick Service Food).
Doug says it's not a trip to Disney until he has had a Dole Whip...or 2!
We walked a round a little because the rain had stopped.
We walked over to the TTC (Ticket & Transportation Center) to take a ride on the Highway in the Sky...Monorail!
Waiting for the Monorail!
Monorail pulling up.
According to Doug this is how I really looked once we were back on land. 3 days is a long time without a cell phone, but it was nice to be "unconnected" for awhile!
Zipping through the Contemporary Resort.
A shot of Bay Lake Tower as we went by. We will also be here with the kids in a few weeks!
We wished we would have sprang for one day tickets. We really did not realize how early we would make it back from the port and as this shot shows it was not a busy day at the Magic Kingdom.
After our Monorail ride we drove to the airport. We were super early which is never a bad thing when dealing with airport security.
It was a great cruise and a very memorable way to celebrate our 10 year anniversary!
