Castaway Cay

Wednesday, November 26 was our day at Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. We had lovely weather and the island is packed with fun things to do. I imagined that we would head back to the ship soon after lunch, but we stayed until they told us we had to get back on board. Mickey, Minnie and Goofy were there to greet us in their cruise wear.

An autograph for Connor. 

 And a picture with a pose.

The Rapp family had rented a cabana on the island. It was our home for the day and it included drinks and snacks, towels, sunscreen, sand toys, rentals for bikes and snorkeling gear and a personal concierge. It was lovely. That is Colton on the porch.

I love this picture. We took it just after arriving at Casataway Cay. Everyone looks relaxed and happy.

Holden enjoyed the beach and the water...though it felt a bit strange at first.

Hmmm, how does sand taste?

 The boys tried snorkeling.

Jon Riley was very kind to Holden as they played on the beach.

Wrestling and tubes - lots of fun for the boys. There were nine boy cousins on the trip and they had such a great time together.

 Relaxing in the hammock.

 The weather looks cloudy in this picture, but we did have sunshine.

Getting ready to leave the cabana and head back to the boat.

Collins must have been telling Townes something very important.

Todd snapped this picture of Holden as we were on the tram. It made everyone laugh.

 Discussions as we waited to board.

 Can you please take my bracelet off?

 Showered and getting ready for dinner.

After dinner we went to a comedy/ juggling show. The comedian was very funny, but one part of the show in particular just had the kids roaring with laughter.

 This was genuine, hysterical laughing.

 What a great day at Castaway Cay!
