It was only four quick days but felt like a couple weeks because of the amount of the stuff we did and saw...and the amount we ate.
The last day of our cruise was spent at sea, headed back to Florida.
We lounged around the pool and ate lots of chicken fingers.
Then it was showtime for Disney's BELIEVE, the signature show of the ship. It's brand new and contains all kinds of neat special effects and is as impressive as a Broadway show and MUCH better than Spider-Man (I saw it. It was garbage.).
The story revolves around a young girl whose horticulturalist father is too busy to spend time with her and gets annoyed with her foolish antics and doesn't believe in magic and is generally just kind of a grumperton.
Over the course of the show he goes on journey through many magical Disney lands and all the Disney characters teach him to believe in magic.
Like...the Genie, who performed "Friend Like Me".
And Merlin! (Played by Tom AKA Gaston.)
And Mary Poppins! (Played by Mallory.) Who performed "Supercalifrabwhatever"
Below you can see Tom and Justin as tribal drummers during The Circle of Life.
Then Tom's bestie Jay played the Frog Prince in the big Princess and the Frog number. (You can also see Ashleigh with the umbrella below playing the annoying best friend of the Frog Princess.)
While Justin played the tambourine...
And Tom played the accordion...
He then did a quick change in order to play Prince Philip. (I think that's the Prince's name from Sleeping Beauty right?)
Jay also played Aladdin and sang "A Whole New World".
Justin, who always ends up playing weird fat characters sang "Be Our Guest" as Lumiere.
Mallory sang Mrs. Potts's part.
It was a really fun show.
And in the end everyone believes in magic.
Yay!
Afterwards we had our last dinner at the Animator's Palate.
Risotto...
Salmon Tartare...
Raviolis...
Pork/Veal...
Chicken...
And we noticed that it would be very easy to deface the Mickey Mouses on the menus with a lewd addition to these drawings...I'll let you use your imagination.
Some final drinks of at crew bar...
And that's it!
Cruise over. Back to NYC. It was four days of absolute magic.
But for all the cast and crew on board it was about to begin all over again. Like Groundhog Day.
Crazy to think that since I got off the ship they've done the loop three more times already!
