Our Disney Dream Cruise

I don’t even know where to start – the Disney Dream Cruise was the most magical, best vacation EVER!  Everyone in our party agreed and we will definitely do it again!  We set sail on the five day Bahamian cruise with ports in Nassau (we didn’t disembark) and Castaway Cay that leaves from Port Canaveral.

Here are the highlights…

We spent most days in the pools enjoying Disney movies on the jumbo screen tv and taking rides on the AquaDuck and Mickey’s Slide.  There was also a splash area for little ones.

Characters were everywhere.  I mean, we’d run into them just walking to our stateroom!  They took so much time with the kids and there was plenty of opportunity to see them all.  Per usual, meeting his “friends” was the baby’s favorite thing on the trip.

We had the cheapest, smallest interior stateroom we could get.  And it was perfect!!  The magic porthole was a complete hit with the kids and they absolutely adored the “magic” bunk beds that appeared every night after dinner.

Meals were amazing.  The food was good, the service was excellent.  We even celebrated Bird’s 4th birthday with one of the coveted Mickey cakes!!

Castaway Cay was the best day of all.  The beach was gorgeous and water was cool and perfect.  We loved Pelican Plunge and even checked the kids in for a while at the kids club.

Honey and I enjoyed a champagne brunch at Remy and it went down in history as my favorite meal.  Ever.  So romantic and yummy… and five glasses of bubby with ocean views!!
