So sorry you weren't able to dock, but safety is definitely priority! You are always so positive. When my husband and I went on our honeymoon we couldn't stop at key west because of the weather, which we were very sad about, but very thankful the crew and captain had our safety as their number one priority. So glad your dad was under the weather for such a short time and that it didn't last for the rest of the crew. You are so kind and caring, which i am sure helped him to feel better much faster! Can't wait to see your remaining vlogs and hopefully the captain is able to swing by Castaway Cay for y'all before heading back to Texas. Also LOVE your pajama pants! so subtle in color, but still shows the Disney love haha

You’re a great son! It can be horrible seeing your parent sick, especially on vacation, but you were so sweet! My mom and I took a DisneyWorld vacation during New Years 2017 and she got sick and ended up in ICU at the celebration hospital, she almost didn’t make it, but thank the Lord, she is doing perfectly now. It can be really scary when our parents don’t feel well! Thankful he was starting to feel better after some rest!

Michael, it was definitely heartbreaking to see the ship get farther away from castaway when we were so close to it on the second attempt. I picked this itinerary because of Castaway. Safety always first and i think everyone made the best of it on board that day. Now I have an excuse to book my next DCL :) Sorry about your Dad but so happy he felt better. Good job in taking care of him. I love how amazing our servers are on DCL! They are the best. One night my 12 year old didn’t want to leave kids club and my server carried the trays of food to our cabin so he could eat afterwards. So caring and sweet! Looks like you were near me during the Pirate Party! I was expecting Mickey up on the air but I thought the same as you....probably the winds were not safe. I can’t wait to plan our next cruise with Castaway in the itinerary and fingers crossed. I have clients who had the same happen twice in a row and they still put on a happy face :) Cheers and blessings to you. Enjoying your vlogs. Warmly Sandra

This was a great example of how having a positive attitude can really turn things around. We also missed castaway on our one and only cruise but after we shed a few tears, we went out and had a blast on the ship. The cast members really went above and beyond to add extra magic to the day because they knew it was a huge disappointment not to get to Castaway and on the 3 day cruise, we had no chance of going another day. Hoping we will get there some day in the not too distant future! 🤞🏼

I’ve NEVER seen a vlog where the ship couldn’t dock into Castaway Cay! That’s a first for me! I completely agree with you that it’s not the cruise line’s fault and that they put the safety of the passengers and the ship first. It makes for a unique experience! I applaud Disney Cruise Line for taking responsibility for their maneuver into Castaway. Not many cruise lines do that😊

So sorry you couldn't go to Castaway Cay. But as we all know safety is the first priority and there's always plenty to do on the ship! I personally love days at sea! Also sorry your dad was sick one night. I know how he feels that happened to me on my last Cruise while I was having dinner at Palo and I had to miss the Beauty and the Beast show because I was sleeping and recovering and later having room service when I felt better. The only place was that they were doing Beauty and the Beast twice on this Cruise so he did get to see it awesome! Can't wait to see the rest of the cruise videos thanks for sharing.

We did the Magic from Galveston in 2013. I think the captain tried like 4 times and then they cut their losses and quit. Although disappointed I knew this might happen (as with any port). However, I could not believe the anger a lot of passengers took out on the Cast Members. It was not their fault. The Guest Services line was super long with people complaining and demanding a full refund/discount of some sort. I understood not what anyone planned but safety first and you are NOT guaranteed any port on your itinerary. The "risk" one assumes when you agree to any cruise as stated in your cruise documents. Wish more people were like you - so positive! Subscribing.
