Today was our last day on the Disney Magic. We didn’t go ashore in Nassau because we had a big day planned onboard.

After we woke up we had breakfast at Cabanas and than walked around the upper decks to make some pictures of the view over Nassau. We were at port with 3 other cruise ships (Bahamas Cruises, Celebrity Equinox and a Carnival cruise line ship). But I have to be honest, DCL has the prettiest ship!

At 9:45 am Emily had an appointment with her fairy godmother in training Lexi at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at deck 10.

First she got to pick out an outfit. Emily went for a sparkly Cinderella dress. Next was the hair. She got a long ponytail with blue and pink hair and a flower headband. With that she got sparkly nail polish, blue and pink eyeshadow, red lipstick and some blush and off course some glitter in her hair.

As the finishing touch she got a sash, wand and a tiara. With that the whole princess makeover was complete.

Now it was time for a coffee before we start with all sorts of meet and greets. We met with Vampirina, Doc McStuffins, Tiana, Cinderella, Rapunzel and Anna & Elsa.

We got a little hungry from all the meet and greets and decided to have lunch at Lumieres before we went back to the room. Emily took a nap and I started packing the suitcases.

After the suitcases were mostly packed and Emily was awake we met with Becka, Chris and Sophie and decided to do some Disney Trivia. Unfortunately we didn’t win but it was a lot of fun. When we went back to the Lobby/Atrium we saw a lot of characters in their formal attire.

We took pictures with Donald and Minnie before going to Animators Pallet for our last dinner onboard. Without asking they brought out the fried Brie, our favorite appetizer. The meal was again great and the show with sorcerer Mickey amazing.

At 7:30 pm it was time for Pluto’s Pyjama Party in the kids club so we dropped Emily and her friend Sophie of at the Oceaneers Lab while Sander and I went to the upper deck to see for ourselves how the weather was. In the afternoon the weather had turned around and with strong winds and rough seas it was a whole other experience then the days before.

As we went back inside there was an opportunity to meet the captain of the ship, Captain Robert Olmer. As we heard him talk earlier this cruise we noticed he was Dutch. And as we talked with him he told us he is from Fijnaart, which is about 10 minutes from where I grew up.

Shortly before 8:30 pm we picked up the kids from the kids club where they made their own pillowcases to take them to the theater to watch the show Disney Dreams. We saw this show on our last cruise and it was still amazing.

Also this show meant the end of this cruise. We said goodbye to Sophie, Becka and Chris and went back to our room to finish packing so we could put our suitcases in the hallway.

The alarm is set for early tomorrow morning to get breakfast and leave the ship to start the next part of our vacation.

Today was the day almost every Disney Cruiser looks forward to. We were docking at Disney’s private island in the Bahamas called Castaway Cay.

When we went to Cabanas for breakfast and Sander found us a nice table outside on the deck with a view of this beautiful island. Once breakfast was finished we went back to our stateroom to get our stuff for our day at Castaway Cay. We took the AFT elevator to deck 1 and around 9:00 am we set foot on the island.

We got ourselves some towels and took a picture in front of the ship. Next was a picture with Captain Jack Sparrow. As we walked towards the family beach we met with both Mickey and Pluto in their beach attire. We also did some shopping for Castaway Cay merch (only available on the island) and finally found ourselves a nice spot on the beach.

The rest of the day we spent in the clear water of the family beach. Had a BBQ lunch at Cookies BBQ and did some more swimming with Becky, Chris and Sophie after they had their Port Adventure on the Island.

Around 3:00 pm we were back at the ship and before we went back onboard we met with Pluto on the Gangway. Back in our stateroom we showered and had some quit time before heading back to the lobby to meet some characters in their Pirate outfits because tonight was Pirate night.

We met with Stitch, Chip & Dale, Mickey and MInnie before going to Lumieres for our Pirate dinner. It was delicious and our head server remembered we like the fried Brie so much he gave us a plate as an extra in-between course.

To finish the day there as the Pirate Deck party on deck 9 and 10 ending with an amazing fireworks at sea. Then we went back to our room because we all were exhausted from this beach day.

Tomorrow is already the last day of this cruise. The ship will be docking in Nassau, Bahamas but we don’t plan on going ashore.
