When you are considering going on a Disney Cruise, one of the inclusions is all of the amazing food. There are endless options throughout the ship not to mention 24-hour room service that is included with your cruise.

On the first cruise, I did not add my dietary needs prior to being on board. I discussed my specific needs the first night of the cruise. Our server was incredibly accommodating and […]

In Disney, phones are an integral part of your trip because you use it for candid photos, videos, navigating the park, and updating plans using the My Disney Experience app. As stated before, we HIGHLY recommend you bring a portable phone charger or purchase a Fuel Rod in the park or resorts. There is another option …find a ‘charging location’ in the park. This will require you to sit and relax (as to not leave your phone unattended), but […]
