We wished to take an enormous journey however P stated she was, “traveled out” (does such a factor exist?!) however after giving her some days to relax, we’ll most likely go to San Diego for an evening or two.

At the moment, I wished to share a recap of our newest Disney Cruise. It was fortunate #7 and it was an amaaaazing one. I by no means thought I’d be a *cruise particular person* however right here we’re. I LOVE IT. It’s an incredible alternative to see elements of the world together with your kiddos with out having to schlep your stuff to a number of motels. You’ve got the identical hub every evening, with leisure, meals, and wonderful acommodations on board. Disney cruises are an enormous a part of the explanation why we’ve taken our youngsters to such superb locations since they have been little, together with Italy, France, Greece, Bahamas a number of instances, Mexico, and Alaska, along with Disney’s islands at Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay.

This cruise was a brief one, and it was the proper size to sneak in on their Rodeo Break.

Disney Fantasy Cruise Nassau and Lookout Cay

Embarkation day:

We traveled out of Port Canaveral, which was a fairly straightforward flight. We had a fairly early port arrival time, so we received on the ship and instantly went as much as the pool for buffet lunch and swimming. The pool isn’t busy throughout this time, so the youngsters can journey the water slide a bunch of instances whereas we get pleasure from a drink of the day. 😉

We did the muster drill, the Sail a Wave occasion, after which loved exploring the ship till dinner.

TBH dinner the primary evening… was unhealthy. Often the meals are fairly good however this one was borderline inedible. I had the duck which is already type of a bizarre selection, and it’s just like the duck was boiled in water. It made me a bit frightened for the remainder of the cruise, however the meals the rest of the time have been as much as the standard customary. (Additionally fortunately they’ve room service and fast chew choices on the pool deck. We had some late-night fries and burgers that evening.)

The primary evening’s present was Aladdin, which the Pilot and P ditched in favor of taking part in the detective sport. Liv and I loved the present. The genie was hilarious.

Nassau:

Day 2 was in Nassau and we deliberate an tour to Atlantis. We went to Atlantis final time we have been within the Bahamas, and the youngsters liked it. It’s a stunning property with a lot to do: tons of slides, the very best lazy river, swimming pools, seashore, bay, and many others. It was very straightforward to spend all the day there.

Additionally value mentioning that Atlantis has majorly stepped up their meals sport! I used to be capable of get an superior gf bowl with rice, jerk salmon, and a few yucca chips.

I additionally received a pineaple with rum on the seashore that was magically refilled a number of instances. 😉

This evening’s present was Frozen and it was the very best forged I’ve seen. I feel all dad and mom internally groan slightly after they have to listen to, “Let it Go” for the billionth time, however this Elsa’s model gave me full-body chills. I virtually cried. It was that good.

The women liked the present a lot that they went once more to the late present. The Pilot and I had dinner by ourselves, which was bizarre however good.

Lookout Cay:

It was our first time visint Disney’s latest island: Lookout Cay. They’ve a big bridge to get to the island with the intention to protect the coral reef. It’s a little bit of a stroll (about 7-10 min) with a stunning view.

The water was PRISTINE: crystal clear and brilliant blue, and the seashore had smooth, pink sand. They’ve fairly a number of choices on the island, together with youngsters membership, character interactions, present, and many others, however we simply spent the day within the water, ate our buffet lunch, and snorkeled.

(I forgot my Rx snorkle masks however introduced these Rx goggles which permit me to be a enjoyable mother however nonetheless see)

Sea Day:

Our final day was at sea, and I like a sea day. We often sleep in, get pleasure from breakfast,

go to the gymnasium, bingo, the youngsters may hang around on the pool or go to youngsters membership, and it’s simply so very pretty and low-key. They’ve cruises which are like 13 nights of sea days and we have to do one! All the pieces you want is actually on the ship.

This evening was additionally pirate evening, with a enjoyable pirate present on the pool deck and fireworks.

Liv and the Pilot skipped this one, however P and I had a blast.

Consuming gluten-free on a Disney Cruise:

Disney is unbelievable in terms of meals allergy symptoms. I’m at all times clear that P and I aren’t allergic, however they deal with sensitivities as allergy symptoms (very critically). All the pieces for meals allergy symptoms is ready in a separate kitchen and the secret’s that if you need one thing explicit, you order it the evening earlier than together with your server in the primary eating room.

Virtually something could be made gluten-free together with the well-known Mickey churro waffles.

Final time we have been on the Dream, they have been simply okay, however this time, they have been GOOD. Scorching, smooth, recent, superb. Additionally they have heat gluten-free rolls ready for you at dinner every evening.

Disney cruise outfits:

For cruises, I often deliver one thing cozy throughout the day, particularly since I’d work out. So I’ll put on lululemon and a Disney hoodie or pullover on the ship. At evening, I’ll change for dinner right into a costume and both a light-weight jacket, or a costume that has sleeves as a result of it’s at all times slightly bit chilly at evening.

Farm Rio costume / Flabelus flats

Farm Rio romper from RTR / identical flats

My FAVE go well with / button up

I additionally introduced this go well with and wore it on Atlantis day with jean shorts. It’s my favourite “mother go well with” – comfy, flattering, and covers my booty whereas I’m doing slides and making sand castles with the crew.

For excursions, I’ll change it up relying on the place we’re going, but when it’s a seashore day, I’ll simply put on my go well with with jean shorts and a coverup, or if it’s not swimming or beach-related, I’ll put on a costume or a set with sneakers (like Vejas or Sambas).

Are Disney cruises value it??

This put up isn’t sponsored or gifted in any manner (I want haha) however in the event you’re contemplating a Disney cruise with your loved ones, I extremely advocate it. Even in the event you’re not a *Disney particular person* they honestly go above and past with leisure, hospitality, ports of name, and cleanliness. I’ll say that I feel the meals high quality for the primary eating rooms has gone down over the previous couple of years. It’s undoubtedly not so good as it was our first few cruises.

We haven’t tried some other cruise traces as a result of we’ve been pleased with Disney. For the reason that youngsters are getting older, we’d discover another choices – I’ve heard nice issues about Royal – however we will certainly stick Disney, too.

They launched this industrial this previous week which received me all in my feels, nevertheless it’s a superb one:
