Review: Disney Cruise Line’s Halloween on the High Seas

Posted on
This fall, Disney Cruise Line has introduced new Halloween-themed entertainment on all four of its ships. Such new features might seem to be nothing but a treat, yet -- according to some firsthand accounts -- some came off a little trickier than other holiday activities we experienced in the past. Last week, some of my extended family members sailed on the Disney Dream for a three-night cruise.

May 26, 2013 We were up bright and early this morning. We were nearing Victoria so we watched from the balcony for a while. Temperatures were cool, skies were overcast and a constant drizzle was falling. By the time the room service coffee arrived at 7:00 a.m. I was already showered and ready to hit … Continue reading "Cruising to Vancouver on the Disney Wonder – Day 7"

Cruising to Vancouver on the Disney Wonder – Day 5

Posted on
May 24, 2013 We were confident we could sleep in this morning so Carol requested room service coffee at 7:30.

May 22, 2013 Our plans to get up early and watch our approach to the Golden Gate Bridge didn’t work out. The ship was rocking and rolling all night long and Carol didn’t sleep well.

Disney Cruise Line offers Miami excursions on debarkation days

Posted on
Despite living in Orlando for almost two decades, I haven’t really spent any time in Miami. Sure, I’ve driven through the area on my way to the Florida Keys, but I haven’t taken the time to explore the city. That’s about to change for me this spring when my family plans to visit some of … Continue reading "Disney Cruise Line offers Miami excursions on debarkation days"
