We usually plan our travel 18 months or so in advance. We look at school calendars, compare prices, and then book a trip. In the case of our February 2017 cruise on the Disney Dream, almost none of this happened (we did look at the school calendar). Here is how our cruise came together.

During our recent Star Wars At Sea Cruise onboard the Disney Fantasy, we got to experience the Chocolate and Liquor Tasting.
Here are some pictures of the Castaway Club Gifts we have received over the years (Note: We just received some updated pictures from a recent Disney Alaska Cruise. We’ve added these pictures to the end of the article):
We recently went on the Disney Dream for a 3-Night Bahamian Cruise from Port Canaveral. We stayed in room 7044, which is a Category 5C Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah. It is located on the forward (front) port (left) side of the ship on Deck 7, just in front of the forward elevators. The room was in a great location. We only had to go up a few decks to get drinks and we were very close to the forward elevators.
During our recent 7 Night Eastern Caribbean Star Wars Day At Sea cruise on the Disney Fantasy, we decided to try Disney Cruise Line’s Onboard Airline Check-in. This is a program that Disney Cruise Line has that allows you to receive your boarding pass and check your luggage for your return flight home while onboard the ship.
Disney cruises are one of our favorite ways to vacation. One of the few issues we have experienced while on the ship (and travel in general) is how to keep all of our electronic devices charged up. As a family of four, we have a multitude of cell phones, iPads, and Kindles that need a recharge. We used to travel with a bag full of wall chargers and cables that went everywhere. This was a real problem once we boarded the cruise ship, since there are a limited number of wall plugs available.

I had the great privilege and honor to be invited back on my favorite podcast, Rope Drop Radio, to discuss various ways to take Disney vacations for less money.
