Belated Trip Report-Day 1 (12/5/09)

Trip Report
Day 1
12/5/09
The day had finally come and it was time to return to the Disney Magic. This was cruise number 11 for us and I was soooo excited as I woke that morning packed our car and headed to Port Canaveral. About 35 minutes after leaving home we crested the Banana River Bridge and off in the distance I could see the 2 red funnels of the Disney Magic and my excitement at once again being onboard was reaching a fever pitch.
After arriving at the port and parking the car we were able to now use the Concierge guest check in line due to our Platinum Castaway Club status. We were handed boarding pass #1 as a result and went to wait the 10 short minutes until they announced we could board. We were the 4th guests on the ship and went to eat at Parrot Cay for lunch before doing our usual welcome home stroll around the ship, going deck by deck and ending up at the Quiet Cove Pool. Josh had a spa treatment at 445 so I went up and took pictures as we sailed away and our first night onboard was under way.
