This is our third day of our cruise and a Tuesday and we are just arriving at Grand Cayman Island.
Our third Sunrise.
We needed to stay away from the island so we would not disturb the coral. So we dropped anchor between two Carnival boats. This one is the Valor.
And this one is the Legend.
A crew member needed to raise the Mickey flag.
Since we had an inside stateroom, we did not have a porthole. But instead we had this really neat porthole-looking mirror. On the new Disney boats these would be virtual portholes that will give you a TV view of what is outside. And once in a while Mickey would swim by.
The town of Georgetown on Grand Cayman Island.
This is the tender that will take us to shore.
Ships in the harbor during the rising sun.
The Disney Magic was under attack by pirates. This is a real pirate ship. Notice the flags.
The crows nests.
The second pirate ship.
For a very short time Logan sat with us on the tender. Judy and I opted to go to the lower floor on the tender but the rest stayed on the top floor because Kellan was in a stroller. Logan realized that his family didn't follow him down and he got very teary-eyed and said, "Where is my family? I want to be with my family!" So to the top floor he went.
We immediately headed for the beach.
The sun was bright even though it was partly cloudy (that means mostly sunny) and breezy. We needed to rent an umbrella, which blew away twice. So much for the beach guy that we rented it from and who secured it in the sand. It wasn't sand as we know but sand made up of mostly crushed coral.
Most of the Smentek men playing in the ocean.
There were several things we could do on shore, one of them was parasailing.
Everywhere we went it was 5:00. Jimmy Buffet had his Margaritaville all over the place.
The three cruise ships in a row.
The Disney Magic. If you notice, all our lifeboats are painted yellow. Disney needed special permission for a world organization to paint them yellow because all other lifeboats are Orange. This is one of Disney's colors.
Kellan says "Hi".
Our third Sunset.
Time for another Broadway show. This time it was "Twice Charmed".
You can see Cinderella descending the staircase behind the story.
They are trying to find the rightful owner of the glass slipper.
The Prince and Princess.
This is the ugly step mother and and the two "sisty uglers".
Her fairy Godmother.
Kirstin and Liam. He wasn't so interested in all the princess stuff but was a good sport about it.
Logan, Jeff and Kellan.
It was a Happily Ever After ending. And then we were off to dinner.
Our assistant server was Jose and he is from Honduras.
This is our fourth towel animal.
This is my very delicious dessert, complete with decorations.

I love the pirate ships. Were they just for show or what? How fun it all must have been!
Well, They were shooting off their cannons and saying Arrrggg. You be the judge.
