4th of July Cruises

SO excited and cannot hardly wait! My husband is self-employed (mobile mechanic) and he says he is having to "flog" himself to get his work done! It is sugarbeet harvest here in Wyoming so he is keeping a bunch of older-than-the-hills trucks running for the farmers for one more year (some of these trucks are 4 trucks taken apart and put together to make one truck!) I got a new digital camcorder and have been practicing up! We have been to Europe before but never for this length of time. Unfortunately, the dollar is so bad it's taking a beating. Travel sites are warning about exchanging your dollars for Euros and no place in Rome will take dollars anymore. It is VERY expensive using taxis or shuttles. The train is fairly cheap but when you have a lot of luggage it is not very convenient (lots of bums and panhandlers too.) Train is safe and fast but not for everyone. I got an email yesterday that there are still unsold rooms on a 12 day coming from Barcelona to Florida and an interior room was 399.00! It was around Thanksgiving but I think you missed the big travel rush dates. Vacationstogo.com always has last minute unsold cruises. Mary

We’ve done two cruises over the 4th of July. On the Disney Wonder, Mickey is dressed patriotically, and there are decorations around the ship. And of course there are fireworks in the evening.

Going over the 4th of July provided a special and unique way of celebrating the 4th of July while on a cruise at sea. Certainly an Independence Day we’ll remember.

The Disney Wonder also had some cool 4th of July ice sculptures. Things like the Statue of Liberty as shown below.

The Fireworks the Disney Cruise Line has are spectacular. The Disney Cruise Line is the ONLY cruise line in the world allowed to have fireworks at sea.

Here is a picture of the fireworks on the Disney Wonder from July 2007. Obviously a still picture can’t capture how cool it is, but hopefully it will capture a little of it.
