Thugs at Sea on the Disney Magic



Today on the Disney Magic (June 25) we get to enjoy our third day at sea.

Thugs have taken over the ship because today we are celebrating Tangled:  The Musical, Disney’s newest production in the Walt Disney Theater.

Found out today we have 2,301 passengers on board for this cruise.  Over 1,500 are repeat cruisers.

Here’s a few facts published today in the Disney Navigator:

8,260 cups of coffee served everyday.

5,390 pillows onboard (we have 7 in our room alone)

5,000 eggs served every morning for breakfast.  984 of those are made into omelettes.

200 whole pizzas at Pinocchio’s Pizzeria are served.

Over 450 burgers at Pete’s Boiler Bites are grilled.

Over 1,200 servings of ice cream are served at Eye Scream.

Tonight we get to move our clocks ahead one more hour again.  Uggh.  This will be the last time we have to move those clocks forward, thank goodness.

In case you haven’t heard, now in the mornings there is a pre-recorded show called “Good Morning Disney Magic” hosted by our cruise director Clayton.  He gives all the highlights and upcoming events and activities for the day.  I know in May when I was on the Disney Fantasy, Natalie was doing “Good Morning Disney Fantasy” so it must be something they are doing on all the ships now.  I like it because you can watch it in the morning at your own leisure when getting ready for the day.

We went by the Port Adventure Desk and picked up our game card for “Spot a Thug” and then searched around the ship for the pictures of the thugs for the game.  There is no prize for the game, but it is a fun activity to do during the sea day.

Went to the 2 p.m. matinee of Tangled:  The Musical.  There were a few technical glitches hopefully they will have that corrected for tonight’s show.  But it was still fabulous.

Play Bingo in the afternoon and then get ready for dinner.  It is cruise casual again.  Wish they would have made semi-formal on our sea day since we would have more time to get ready instead of a port day.

Dinner was the menu “Land and Sea”.  They have regional favorites on the menu each night on this cruise too.  I really enjoy the regional favorites on each menu so we can choose them throughout the cruise.  During dinner the palace guards come through the restaurant trying to find Flynn Ryder.



After dinner, we hurry off to The Snuggly Duckling.  The Thugs have taken over O’Gills Pub for this event.  We have some tomfoolery and play Thugo (a version of Bingo) and sing.  O’Gill’s is packed for this event.  You will want to try to get there by 7:30 pm for the 8 pm event if you want any chance of getting a seat.

As soon as Thugo is done we are off to the Walt Disney Theater for Tangled:  The Musical.  Seems like they have taken care of the technical issues they had earlier in the day.  The show is fabulous.  I have seen it 5 times now.  I love it!  Can’t wait to cruise on the Disney Magic again to see it next time.

After the show, there is an adult show in The Snuggly Duckling at 10:15.  Once again if you want any attempt at a seat, you need to be there by 9:45 pm.

Well, time to move the clock forward another hour.  It is the end of another glorious day.
So for now………goodnight from the Disney Magic!
