On the final morning of our two week Panama Canal cruise onboard the Disney Magic, I woke up early once again just after 6:00am, ready for what would turn out to be a truly wonderful day. Even though I had been hoping to wake up a little later, it was perfect timing as the sun was just starting to rise in the Pacific as I walked out onto our verandah. It was such a beautiful morning and we sat in bed with tea and pastries and there really was no better way for us to start our last day. (more…)

After spending the previous four days at sea in the Pacific Ocean since we had transited the incredible Panama Canal onboard the Disney Magic, today was the day where we were finally due to set foot onto dry land once again.

When I woke up on the third day of our Very Merrytime Cruise on the Disney Wonder just after 7:00am, I could hardly feel any movement of the ship at all so I knew we were getting close to Cozumel. From the verandah, I watched as the pilot boat approached just before 7:30am and as it was a clear day, I could see over to the Mexican mainland in the distance. (more…)
