Nothing is as synonymous with cruising as a buffet, right? That, plus the cigarette smoke filtering into our room is pretty much most of what we remember about cruising with Carnival during the worst travel experience of our lives. On a Disney Cruise, the buffet isn’t quite as memorable but perhaps only because everything about a Disney cruise is...
Who knew that Key West was a little slice of the Caribbean just 3 hours southwest of Miami? It makes sense considering it is an island in the middle of the ocean, but I never figured it was covered in pastel painted victorian era style homes, towering mahogany trees lining the sidewalks and boulevards, and friendly pedestrian and bicycle...
Much is made out of Disney’s Cruise treatment when it comes to the dining experience. On a Disney Cruise ship dining plans are referred to as Rotational Dining Service. In short, this means that you have a set dining time, at a specific restaurant, with set service, but it rotates from restaurant to restaurant. This is extraordinary because it...
Let’s just start with the obvious cliché: No stop in Key West, Florida is complete without Key Lime Pie. We knew we had to have to it, we wanted it, and we bought it.
Ah, but where to buy it? Not one bakery seems to have an actual claim to possessing the original, or the first, Key Lime Pie...
This was our first Disney cruise and one night in particular, I really was hoping Disney Cruise Room Service could deliver a magical experience for me. Magic and Disney go hand in hand, right? As it so happens, we were even aboard the Disney Magic ship, so this should have been easy.
We ate the most delicious banana creme...
Unlike the deflating and deplorable Frozen Deck Party, Pirate Night on the Disney Magic is a captivating, intriguing and lively evening filled with excitement, unpredictability and even fireworks - this is a Disney cruise after all. I think part of what made this night so special was the fact that coming in, we didn’t know what to expect, so...
From the royal welcome when you step foot onboard the ship, to the non stop action filling every moment of every day from before sunrise to long past sunset, debarking on a Disney Cruise ship is akin to having a personal host planning your schedule by your side minute by minute. It can be totally overwhelming at first to...
I’ve never in my life seen my five year old daughter so disappointed as the night we attended the Frozen Deck Party aboard the Disney Magic Cruise Ship. Disney was hoping the mere idea of Anna and Elsa standing in front of a crowd for a few seconds would have everyone peeing their pants with excitement.
That, at least, would have...
I can’t write about this topic with too much authority because as a parent, I’m not actually allowed in the Youth Club. Except during open houses, these areas are strictly for kids! The open house is also the only time you can take photos. But I’ve been told, and witnessed, how much my kids beg and plead and love...
We’ve been to Castaway Cay twice now. Once on the Disney Wonder, and once on the Disney Fantasy. During our first visit on the Disney Wonder we did everything wrong. One of those things we did wrong? We booked the worst activity on Castaway Cay: The Glass Bottom Boat Scenic Voyage. Talk about awful.
