Cruisin Disney Style

So for our vacation we decided to go on a Disney Cruise. As many of you know we are "Disney Nerds." We love all things Disney. We also love the fact that we knew without a shadow of a doubt that we would experience the "Disney Difference" and we were right! Everything was perfect and exceeded our expectations. The service, the food, the entertainment were amazing! Best of all there was an adult only area. So for four glorious days we sailed, drank, ate, and partied in what I like to call Disney Adult style haha. By the time day 1 was over we were already planning our next Disney cruise.









The best part of cruising is the food! This is not a dieter's vacation. Be prepared to stuff your vacationing mouth with a huge array of unlimited gloriousness! Wether it be breakfast, lunch or dinner they have you covered with a variety of tasty delights to keep even the pickest eaters happy. I started off slow and had eggs benedict for breakfast with a side of bacon, but that was only round 1 haha.


If you know me you know I have a talent for eating. Disney has rotational dining down to an art and it allows the guests to fully experience all the restaurants that the ship has to offer. On day two the hubby and I decided to treat ourselves to one of two adult restaurants on board. We chose to dine at Palo, the Dream's Italian style restaurant, and we weren't disappointed. Though it was all good the best part was dessert. A chocolate soufflé with vanilla bean and chocolate syrup that frankly was the best dessert we have ever had! Unfortunately we got too carried away with the amazingness that we did not take a picture.

Our port of call was the Bahamas. We fell victim to rain, but we didn't let that stop us. We explored Atlantis and its aquariums and then returned to the boat for lunch and a movie. There was a movie schedule that played several of Disney's current releases through out the day.



 



Disney Cruise Line is the only cruise line to offer fireworks at sea. Of course they're not just fireworks! Disney builds up the event by turning the entire cruise ship into a Pirate Party. The guests are encourage to join in the fun and everyone (and I mean everyone from the guests to the crew) dresses in their swash buckling best. All the restaurants serve a pirate menu and the fireworks are preceded by show that includes an appearance by Jack Sparrow. All in all I would say its one of the best nights on the ship and everyone gets into the spirit.

 

We could not have been happier with our choice to go on the Disney Cruise as we had four days of stress free sailing. Every detail was covered and ever want or need meet. As always Disney did not disappoint.
