Nancy Cruise Planning, Disney Cruises , , , , , 0 Comment


When you set sail on a Disney cruise, there are so many things that set your voyage apart from other cruises. Whether it’s the incredible entertainment – as only Disney can do, or the world-class Disney service, a Disney cruise is truly like no other. Of course, sailing with Disney also provides plenty of opportunities for memorable moments throughout your voyage, seeing all your favorite Disney character friends on the ship – whether you receive a friendly wave from Captain Minnie as you board the ship, have a silly interaction with Goofy out on deck or watch Mickey up on stage in the Walt Disney Theatre.

Now, Disney Cruise Line is continuing the tradition of fun with your favorite pals aboard their newest ship,  the Disney Wish, setting sail in summer 2022. On the incredible new Disney Wish, the adventures of Mickey and friends will be brought to life like never before with the debut of AquaMouse — an exciting family water attraction that is truly not like anything you’ve ever experienced at sea (or anyplace else either!).

What a difference a year makes (in a good way)! While last year at this time, travel was practically at a standstill, this year it seems that everyone has an upcoming trip planned, or is getting ready to book their next vacation. Increasing vaccinations and relaxing travel guidelines have people feeling optimistic about making up for missing out on their vacations last year, and many destinations and airlines are seeing huge demand as a result.

Still, things aren’t quite “normal” yet when it comes to travel – and so anyone with vacation plans over the upcoming summer will want to know what the “latest” is when it comes to COVID safety. Generally speaking, there are two important things to keep in mind: Read more

If you love Donald Duck and The 3 Caballeros (and who doesn’t?), the Gran Fiesta Tour in EPCOT’s Mexico pavilion is a “must do” for you.  My granddaughter was so in love with this easy, slow moving ride, we had to ride it 3 times in a row! Poor Donald, it seems that he has disappeared south of the border and it is up to Panchito and Jose to find him.

Where did Donald go? Read more

Mention “bucket list” travel and a vacation to Alaska is probably on most people’s list. With scenery and experiences that cannot be found in any of the rest of the United States, Alaska is a destination with endless chances to experience the incredible.

Within this state that has so much jaw-dropping scenery, few places represent the immense size and scenic majesty of Alaska better than Denali National Park and Preserve. This vast enclave of 9,419 square miles features a little of everything that makes America’s biggest state so breathtaking: thick blankets of forest, mossy tundra, slow-moving glaciers, swathes of barren rock and snow-capped mountains.

The first thing you’ll see when you arrive at EPCOT, is what most people call the “golf-ball”. This always makes me smile, because the only thing about it that reminds me of a golf ball is that it is round and seems to sit up from the ground as if on a tee! This giant icon is actually made up of over 11,000 triangular tiles and is 180 feet tall – so it’s quite the “golf-ball” indeed! Read more
