Last year my family participated in the gingerbread house making activity on the Disney Wonder. I wrote about it in my trip report here, but I also wanted to dedicate a post to it so that it would be easier for people to find if they are searching specifically for information on this activity. This […]
All About the Photo Packages on Disney Cruise Line
If you’ve never been on a Disney cruise before and you don’t know how the onboard photo system works, hopefully this post will provide you with the basic information needed to easily and successfully navigate the system and end up with photos you are happy with.

My Tips For a Quick & Painless Safety Drill
This post unfortunately deals with one of the least fun (but most important – safety first!) experiences on a cruise ship – the safety/lifeboat/muster drill. Believe it or not, there are actually a few things you can do to make the drill as smooth & painless as possible. Here they are: Be Prepared By this […]
My Review of the Live Stage Shows on Disney Cruise Line
One of my family’s favorite things on a Disney Cruise are the live stage shows. Even my husband loves them and looks forward to them. They are spectacular productions and so well done. They would be impressive on land, and when you consider that they perform these things on a cruise ship, it is really […]
Chill Youth Spa Menu
I know this probably only appeals to a very narrow audience, but I thought I would post this in case anyone is out there scouring the internet for it. On our recent cruise on the Dream (trip report here), I was walking through the Senses Spa in order to see what the Rainforest Room was […]
Disney Dream Champagne Tasting
For those of you who have recently read my Disney Dream Trip Report and thus just read about this champagne tasting, I apologize for the recycled content. I am doing this because I thought that separating the champagne tasting segment into its own post would make it easier for people to find if they are […]
Halloween on the High Seas Pictures

Those of you who have a HOTHS sailing booked might be interested in what to expect. We have sailed on 2 HOTHS sailings – in Sep/Oct 2013 on the Wonder and in October/Nov 2014 on […]

I didn’t feel like thinking very hard yesterday, so I thought I would try something different and take a departure from my helpful and informative posts and just focus on one of the simple pleasures of Disney cruises – towel animals! I have done a pretty good job of […]
All About Our Disney Cruise Line Stateroom Gifts
One of the many things I love about DCL is how they sometimes surprise us with stateroom gifts. We have been fortunate to have received some really nice ones over the years and I thought I would share them with you. First of all, I want to stress that it is not a given that […]
All About Fish Extenders
On our first Disney Cruise I noticed that some rooms had these fabric pockets hanging from the metal fish on the wall right next to the door. When I got home, I did some Googling (seriously, how did we survive without Google?) and discovered that Disney Cruises have a gift exchange program (not sponsored by […]
