Castaway Cay!!

After our day in the Nassau we spent a day at Disney's private Island (which is also in the Bahamas). Disney purchased and then renovated this whole island so the only people there are employees and the folks on your boat. Although we enjoyed the whole cruise - this alone made the trip worth it!!

Once you got off the boat they had trams that shuttled you to the various beaches/locations.



I didn't take any photos - but once you got of the first tram there was - a gift shop :) Disney wouldn't be complete without this! After the gift shop came the busiest area - the family beach. The family beach also had a kids play area out in the water - very cool. Rumor is they are adding a slide that will also be out in the water. Guess we'll have to take another cruise to check that out ;)



There were also several other things located near the family beach: a bar, place to eat (all food on the island was included in the cruise price), a DJ with many crazy kids "dancing", and more that I'm sure I didn't notice :)

I didn't notice because we were busy looking for the adults-only beach. Don't get me wrong I love kids - but them squealing and splashing and such isn't really my idea of a relaxing beach day.

The quiet adult beach.


The chair where I spent most of my day - enjoying a novel (that was of no educational value - but entertaining).


The cruise boat from the beach. The "pirate" ship you see is actually one of the sets from the Pirates of the Carribean movie!


A few various photos of the island:




Pulling away from the island :( I think a cruise that *just* went here would be GREAT! Disney actually has one that goes on 2 days (instead of just 1) - which I think I need to look into!
