YouTube Video Description

After almost two weeks at sea, we finally made it to our last stop: Castaway Cay! 🏝️ This was our first time ever docking at Disney’s private island, and it did not disappoint. From a room service breakfast with those famous churro waffles to exploring the family beach, bike rentals, and Pelican’s Point slides, we made every second count! But as they say, all good things must come to an end. After a final sunset and a bittersweet goodbye dinner at Royal Court, we faced a rough disembarkation morning with major border control delays. It took over 5 hours to debark the ship, get our rental car, grab lunch, and get to our next destination. 😱 Join us as we wrap up our 13-night Disney Fantasy Transatlantic journey and head to Orlando to start our next series at the Universal Orlando Parks! 🎢 🔥 Chapters: 00:00 Intro & Welcome to Castaway Cay! 1:15 Sunrise & First Landfall in 6 Days 3:32 Room Service Pro-Tip & Churro Waffles 4:57 First Impressions of the Island 6:41 Stepping Onto Paradise 8:42 Exploring the Island: Maps & Youth Activities 11:00 Touching the Bahamian Waters 12:51 Character Sightings & Photo Ops 13:58 Lunch Prep at Cookies BBQ & Conked Out Bar 16:56 Pelican Point & Pelican Plunge Slides 18:11 Serenity Bay: The Adult-Only Escape 20:11 Bike Rentals & Island 5K Route 21:50 Full Island BBQ Lunch Buffet 25:00 Family Time at the Beach 26:08 Conquering the Water Slides 28:05 Island Cocktails: Pina Colavas 29:11 Obstacle Course & Rope Swing Fun 30:58 Saying Goodbye to Castaway Cay 32:14 Final Aqua Duck Ride & Sunset on the Fantasy 35:16 Thanking Our Incredible Stateroom Host 36:00 The Dreaded Final Packing Transition 37:51 Last Supper at Royal Court: Lobster Night! 39:41 Fond Farewells to the Dining Crew 40:51 One Last Old Fashioned at O'Gills Pub 45:10 Missed the Farewell Party lol 46:30 Final Morning: Arriving at Port Canaveral 48:40 The Last Breakfast & Goodbye Room 7004 49:34 Disembarkation Issues & 3-Hour Line 50:25 Surprise Dolphin Sightings While Waiting 52:12 Finally Off the Ship! 52:48 Road Trip to Orlando: The Journey Continues #DisneyCruiseLine #DisneyFantasy #CastawayCay #TransatlanticCruise #DisneyCruise #UniversalOrlando #LivingTheVacationLife 🔗 Connect With Us: ✈️ Plan Your Disney Cruise or Theme Park Trip With Us: https://www.piratesandprincessestravel.com/request-a-quote 📸 Follow our daily travel adventures on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingthevacationlife/ 🛍️ Our favorite travel gear, cruise essentials & park must-haves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/livingthevacationlife 🌐 All other links & resources: https://linktr.ee/livingthevacationlife
