Natsynoo's Perfect Panamian Adventure: DCL EBPC Oct 2018 - Day 16 Last Day At Sea

I always hate this day of a cruise – the last one – especially this cruise, as it had been so awesome!

We woke up after our late night at 7am, and I showered and washed my hair, before finishing the bulk of the packing before heading for breakfast.

We wanted to catch the last Mickey & Friends photo opportunity in the hope they were wearing their ‘classic’ Cruise gear, so we headed down for that at 8.40am and were glad we did as this was much busier than the one on Panama day. I was thrilled when I had been right, another amazing photo!

We went back to the stateroom to change into our pool gear, and headed up to deck 10 to our usual spot for the day.

We watched Moana on Funnel Vision and then the Ice Carving, but this time, it started to rain! The guy carried on like a trooper though and carved out an Eagle before everyone ran away.

Matt and I headed into Cabanas to let the storm pass, but looking ahead, we didn’t think it would, so we abandoned the idea of getting our final hours of sunshine and went to the stateroom to get changed.

We had missed the Q&A with Josh Strickland so instead went to Movie Quotes Trivia. We were pretty naff again but it was fun anyway!

Next stop was to the shop for my final purchases – the Run Disney charm (they didn’t sell this in Paris but I wanted it on my ‘Memories of 2018’ bracelet as a recognition of my achievement. This was $54 after discount.

We then checked in Shutters to see if we needed to buy any of the photos but we decided that ours were good enough so wouldn’t need any of the professional ones.

We decided to head back up to deck 9 to sit and chill for a while, but it was still quite wet, o we went back down to the stateroom to rest for a bit and then get ready for the evening ahead.

We managed to meet Mickey one last time, before heading in to watch Frozen The Musical at 6pm.

This was PHENOMENAL! One of the best Disney shows I’ve ever seen and definitely better than the version in Disney’s California Adventure. It blew me away and I’m now secretly planning a trip to NYC to see it on Broadway. Whilst in the theatre, we ordered our final drinks from Martin ($7.71).

Our next stop was the Crown & Fin for ‘know it all trivia’ which was basically music trivia from all the eras. We had our final drinks in here which came to $5.69.

Our final meal was to be in Tiana’s Place – how appropriate, because it was our favourite of the rotational restaurants.

We were given Mardi Gras beads on arrival.

Matt started with the Sausage Fritters

I had the Shrimp & Grits

We both had the Prime Rib

And then a double helping of Beignets – they were so good!

At the end of the meal, they did a show where the Crawfish Crooners performed songs from the film (Down the Bayou, Dig a Little Deeper) and the servers got everyone up dancing. I will never forget that night, it was just the perfect culmination of everything good from our cruise. Click through to watch these videos!

We handed out our gratuities, which had been charged to our stateroom accounts at $168 each for the two weeks. Some people complain about this but I swear when I am in WDW I spend more than that on tips. For me, the service provided makes that cost well worth it!

After dinner, we went to see the Filharmonics perform in Azure, and watched the Last Chance Smarty Pants game show. This included a ‘stitch up’ by Jo for Natalie where she had to perform dances to a medley of songs. It was very funny!

We were back in our stateroom at 10.50pm, hardly believing that our amazing holiday was over. I did a bit more packing, got ready for bed, and fell asleep at 11.30pm.
