Hi everyone! I'm Su-Lynn (aka Chunkymonkey), the one wearing the Captain America shirt on the right. This is my third Disney Cruise TR! I hope to be writing them for many years to come as DCL is one of our favorite ways to vacation, and with this cruise it only gets better and better! On the left is my husband of 9 years, Steve (Chubbyhubby). We hail from the NY/NJ region so this cruise pretty much left from our backyard. It was awesome!
This is our 2nd time on the Magic, our first time was in 2015 for our first Disney Cruise ever. We also went on the Fantasy last year for Star Wars Day at Sea. We love both of these ships but there is something special about the Magic - smaller and perhaps more intimate. We booked a placeholder for 2 rooms last year and I booked this cruise on the first day it was released. It was only later that it became a Marvel Day at Sea and I couldn't be happier!! In addition, there were also Halloween and Pirate Night festivities which made it one big costume party!!
Yo ho yo ho a pirates life for us!

Here was our itinerary for the week:
Saturday Oct 21- Depart from NYC
Sunday Oct 22 - At Sea (Formal Night)
Monday Oct 23 - At Sea (Marvel Day at Sea)
Tuesday Oct 24 - Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island (Halloween on the High Seas night)
Wednesday Oct 25 - Sydney, Nova Scotia
Thursday Oct 26 - Halifax, Nova Scotia (Pirate Night)
Friday Oct 27- At Sea
Saturday Oct 28 - Arrive back in NYC
It is an amazing itinerary. If you ever get a chance to visit these ports, please do as they are beautiful. I crossed off visiting Prince Edward Island from my bucket list as I've always wanted to see Green Gables Heritage Site and on this cruise I got to do that!
Oh and two days after we got home, we flew down to Walt Disney World for the week! But that will be a separate trip report!
Since we had a second stateroom, Steve's parents decided to join us from California. It's their second Disney Cruise and I think I got them to really get into the spirit of watching all the shows and taking character pictures. In addition Steve's aunt joined us from Taiwan, but she did her own thing most of the time and we just saw her at meals.

That's Steve, his parents and his aunt during embarkation.
Hope you're in for our MARVEL-ous cruise on the Disney Magic!!
