Taking a Disney Cruise doesn’t mean the entire cruise is about kids. Many adults sail as couples and for girls’ getaways. But for the family cruisers, adults may want a little adult time while the kids enjoy the kids' clubs. On the Disney Wish, there are many locations where adults can grab a drink, have a lively conversation with fellow passengers, or just kick back and relax with a cup of coffee and a book. Areas that adults can enjoy their own time: • Keg & Compass – Deck 5 - Grab a brew in this maritime pub while catching […]

One of the common questions people ask when their dining booking window approaches is where they can find the best steak. Disney parks, resorts, and Disney Springs have a few choices, but the one my family has enjoyed for years is Le Cellier in the Canadian Pavilion in EPCOT. The interior is meant to resemble a wine cellar, which gives you a cozy and quaint environment to enjoy your meal. Each section of the restaurant represents a different province in Canada. Once you are seated in the restaurant, you are greeted by your waitstaff who are always eager to share […]

What is a back-to-back cruise? Back-to-back cruising is a popular travel trend where individuals or families book two or more cruises on the same ship to extend their vacation at sea. Instead of disembarking after the first cruise, they remain on the ship for the next sailing. If booked early enough, staying in the same stateroom for both cruises is possible, saving time and the hassle of repacking and moving to a different stateroom. If you must change staterooms, your stateroom attendant will transfer your luggage to ensure an efficient and hassle-free experience. How can this benefit your family? There […]

If you love grilled food and are hoping for a great one during your next Universal Orlando vacation, look no further than Bigfire. Located in Universal Citywalk, Big Fire is home to all things cooked over an open flame, and just a short walk from either of the two theme parks. My husband and I love a steak, so we knew we had to give this a try on our most recent trip. We were seated upstairs near a faux fireplace. Luckily it didn't give off any real heat as we were hot from the Florida sunshine. We began our […]

So many great things are happening during the current floor to ceiling refurbishment at Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel, and I can't wait to see the final product of Pixar Place come to life. The most notable change will be the new name, from Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel to Pixar Place Hotel. This hotel has undergone several name changes and transformations since originally opening in 1984, but the current theme, Paradise Pier, has been around for a little over 20 years now, so this is definitely a welcomed change. During a recent stay, I was literally seeing these changes happening before […]
