Hi Folks
Been busy here since our arrival home in the frozen Northlands of NJ. First of all I wish to thank all those new found friends and DISBoard members who helped to create a Magiccal cruise for everyone. Secondly, I wish to thank Shirley from The Perfect Gift.
The Perfect Gift 1 800-850-4559 I called her with some idea of what I would like and she took that info and created a fabulous gift basket for delivery to our Stateroom. Absolutely perfect, to include the candle and champagne although the pretzels made for some strange bed company?
I will start off with the 10th of May. We left Philadelphia on time and arrived in Orlando about 11:45AM. Happy Limo
Happy Limo was there promptly to meet us with a cute sign at the bottom of the stairway. We met our driver Wes who explained the process whereby we would collect our baggage and he would get the Limo. We had booked a Limo and not a Town Car but in retrospect we should have rented a bus, as our baggage (for four) would not fit in the trunk. A minor inconvenience that would be eliminated by Wes on the return trip. The cost for the round trip was $170.00 but we gave him a $20.00 tip. Barb & Tonys web site has a coupon for Happy Limo
Castaway Cay I think that we could have rented a van from AVIS for a few dollars less. Of course we would not have been dropped off at the door, and I would have had to do all the planning, driving and arranging for the trip from the ship back to the RAD and get our return car etc. We arrived at the Radisson about 1:15 PM checked in, made an early reservation for the shuttle to the pier and were eating at poolside around 1:30 or so. The rate for a nice room was $59.00 and a total of $63.10 with tax. This rate was the fall special that we found out about on the DIS after reserving a two bedroom suite. We were not disappointed with the room without the Jacuzzi. To be continued
