Nana & Poppy Travels
United States
Приєднався 7 сер 2023
Hi. We are Ali and Chuck, aka Nana and Poppy. We love to get away on cruise ships whenever possible. We love cruising because you can be as active or inactive as you wish. On some cruises we like to be active and try everything, other cruises we like to simply nap and eat. On land we enjoy running, cycling and spending time with our kids and grandkids.
Come join us for our adventures.

Thank you so much for your review! You did a great job showcasing the room and the deck. You helped me so much to make a decision. Thanks again!
Such a damaged landscape . Especially the big hotels.
I love Crush
🥰
it needs some Rachel. 🙂
Great video! Very helpful.
@markverdi5793 Thanks for watching!
Fun Fact: Tom Sawyer’s island was named after the fictional Mark Twain character “Tom Sawyer”. Tom Sawyer never actually owned an island, however.
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching! And thanks for the fun fact 😁I thought it might have been named after the RUSH song.
Great video. "Spirit of Adventure," and Tom Sawyer Island, seem to go hand and hand. Happy to see Briar and Sawyer enjoying it.
@@markverdi5793 thanks for watching Mark. The last day at Disneyland is always bitter sweet.
Super choppy video..... I got dizzy watching it 😂
@@tawnyfigueroa7906 Thank you for the feedback. We agree it was choppy. It was our first video. We are always trying to improve.
Did I miss Poppy dancing?
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching! Actually, I was Woody. If you look closely, you will see me 🙂
Beautiful I love it
@Lovely1234-d7j Thanks for watching. The girls really love it and as grandparents we enjoy it as well 🙂
@@NanaPoppyTravels beautiful Do you have iMessage sorry to ask you this
Wow! That was a great tour👋
@@MisterVaughn Thanks Vaughn. It's one of our favorite videos because it truly represents a day at the park with the girls. Day 4 and 5 are fun because Abby joins us. The girls love her.
This was such a fun day. Even though the girls were scared a bit by the "bigger" rides, they still were willing to give them a shot. Every day is a new adventure with them 🙂
Thanks For Sharing this 💖💜💚💙💕💙💚💜💖
Naw, thank you and thank you so much for watching. It wasn't our best filming as we were also busy taking pictures. You know, as grandparents do. LOL
Thanks For Sharing This 💖💜💚💙💕

Do you remember what is the complete list of Princess Dresses that you have?
Ariel < Belle < Snow White < Cinderella < Mirabelle < Belle < Tinkerbell Jasmine < Rapunzel < Mal (Descendants) < Evie (Descendants) < Uma (Descendants) < Isabella < Pocahontas
@@NanaPoppyTravels Also how many of each different Dress?
The only repeats we currently have are Belle, Ariel, Mal and Mirabelle.
@@NanaPoppyTravels Also is at least 1 of your Princess Dresses a Light-Up Dress?
@@markheying2830 Nope, we currently don't have any light up dresses.
Do you remember where you got the Belle Dress?
@markheying2830 Thanks for watching! We do remember, it was at Disneyland in the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique in 2022. Bibbidi Bobbidi was not open for the full experience due to the pandemic, but we were able to purchase the Belle Dresses that year.
@@NanaPoppyTravelsAlso do you remember where you got each of your other Princess Dresses like the Rapunzel Dress & Jasmine Dress?
@@markheying2830 Some at Disneyland, others from Amazon. It just really depends..
The animatronics have really come a long way since I was a kid. VERY lifelike!
@bobbybostic7947 Right, so much better than the talk with President Lincoln 🙂 This is one of the girl's favorite things to do, we do it every time we go, this year we went twice. They rotate the princesses, so you are never sure who you are going to meet. The girls are always hoping to see their favorites but have never been disappointed by whichever princesses are available. Thanks for watching!
The Animatronics Have Really Come A Long Way Since
@@carolinaarcamo1954 Thanks for watching!
Thanks for making this video. It’s very helpful. We are looking to do a back to back October 2025 on the Quantum of the Seas from San Pedro. Happy Sailing!
Thanks for watching and that's super exciting. We're also going to be on Quantum first sailing out of LA in October 2025. Which sailing are you on? We're doing another back to back in January 2025 on Navigator. It'll be interesting to see if anything is different.
@@NanaPoppyTravels we are sailing on 10/12 and then 10/16 to celebrate my 60th Birthday.
@@cruiselandia8710 That's wonderful! What a great way to celebrate turning 60. I'm a few months ahead of you, turning 60 in February. Sadly though, I won't be on a cruise.
Hi there I’m enjoying your videos and your family 😊
@@ericlee6495 Hi. Thank you so much for watching. We're glad you've been enjoying the videos. We had such a great time on this trip with the grandkids.
Poppy needs some mouse ears.
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching! Poppy is cheap so he wears the same Poppy hat every year instead of getting ears. I did get a new white Poppy hat this year so if you watch future days, it will be a big change when I bust that out. This year Sawyer chose the awesome Sully hat instead of ears, so I wasn't the only one without ears 🙂
Do you remember if you’re Team Mickey or Team Minnie?
We are both Team Mickey 🙂
@@NanaPoppyTravelsTeam Minnie all the way!
Just keep in mind that Mickey is the big cheese of Disney.
The Disney OG!
Just keep in mind that meeting Rapunzel raises your Best Day Ever Scale.
So true!
Just keep in mind that a Disney Vacation is usually not complete without meeting at least 1 Character.
We totally agree, it's the key to a Disney vacation.
@@NanaPoppyTravels Also when your Little Girl meets a Princess, be sure that the Girl wears a Princess Dress so that the Princess can see the Dress.
@@markheying2830 every time!!
What your Girl’s next Birthday Party should be themed to. 1: Tangled 2: Wish 3: Frozen 4: Brave 5: Sleeping Beauty
Thank you for the suggestions.

Do you remember what is the complete list of Princess Dresses that you have?
It's a lot. Our granddaughters love dress up. I'd have to add the following into the mix: Jasmine < Rapunzel < Mal (Descendants) < Evie (Descendants) < Uma (Descendants) < Isabella < Pocahontas I'm sure I am missing some. :-)
@@NanaPoppyTravels Is at least 1 of your Princess Dresses a Light-Up Dress?
Who are your favorite princesses/characters?
No, sadly none of them are.
@@NanaPoppyTravelsMickey, Minnie, Mr. Incredible, Mrs. Incredible, Elsa, Anna, Rapunzel, Aurora, Jasmine, Asha, Merida, Olaf, Kristoff, Aladdin & Mirabel
The 5 Princess Dresses which are of your highest priority whenever you go to Disney or a Princess Party. Elsa > Rapunzel > Aurora > Jasmine > Asha
Another great question and it changes from year to year. The princesses they have been transformed into at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique are: Oldest: Ariel < Belle < Snow White < Cinderella Youngest: Mirabelle < Belle < Tinkerbell
On that Day, did your Girls curtsy to any of the Princesses who they’ve met?
The older granddaughter is a little shy. But the youngest granddaughter does. both when meeting them in person and during the parades. You can see her do it in the Magic Happens parade video that was released today. It's very sweet. She actually practices her curtsy before she sees them. Great question.
The 20 Characters who are of your highest priority whenever you go to Disney. Mickey > Minnie > Elsa > Anna > Rapunzel > Asha > Goofy > Pluto > Donald > Daisy > Olaf > Aladdin > Chip > Dale > Aurora > Jasmine > Tiana > Cinderella > Mirabel > Merida
Thanks for watching and thanks for asking. For our granddaughters their character/princess priority changes from year to year. This year the top was Tinkerbell, Cinderella, Joy and Sadness. Consistently on the top of their list is Ariel, Belle,. and Winnie the Pooh. So, for top 20 this year we'd have to replace Pluto, Asha (they haven't been into wish yet), Donald Daisy, Chip and Dale.
The girls are so lucky to make these memories with you :)
Well thank you for creating our two favorite humans and letting us take them on these adventures. We love it so much!
Start to finish, how long did it take?
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching! In total the process takes around an hour and a half. We get to the boutique 15 minutes early; girls are always very excited. After they call us in to pick out everything then there is a wait until they are ready in the salon. After that is completed, there is a wait for pictures and then a final wait after the pictures while they put together the package with your pictures. Takes a while but they have loved it every time we have gone.
@@NanaPoppyTravels the Disney purist might suggest that the 90 minutes from rope drop is prime ride time, but I understand with two small girls something like this might be higher on the list than cranking out A-ticket rides before the lines get too long.
@@bobbybostic7947 This is Poppy, we actually went to character breakfast at 8am (rope drop) and then Bibbidi Bobbidi in the afternoon (1pm if I remember correctly). But to your point it is very different experience going with the girls then when I went with my brothers as kids. That was always all about the rides, now I watch parades and meet princesses and other characters 🙂
And for A ticket rides they are not up for them yet, Nana is really trying to get them there since she loves roller coasters. They did try Space Mountain but that was too much. Briar also went on Cars ride with Nana but even that was a bit much. So will probably be a few more years before they are into the A ticket rides. This is also why we don't currently get the genie + tickets. When they start going on the bigger rides that is a huge time savings but not so much when they want to go on the same rides multiple times.
Wait.. you didn’t build light sabres?
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching. Sawyer did want to get a bow and arrow, but Nana and Poppy said no. About the only thing we said no too. They did get new bubble wands, ears, and plenty of stuffed toys. If they ever get into Star Wars, we will need you to guide them through Star Wars Land and building their own swords.
How is the new Star Wars land?
We've only been able to walk though it as the girls are not interested in Star Wars. I think at some point we will have to make an adult Disney trip to really check it out.
We usually visit the fitness centers daily
I'm impressed. That's always a goal for us, but we get into vacation mode and it doesn't happen. We will ba back on Harmony in September and will give it another try. You'll be our motivation.
This hotel really did work out great for us. The girls used the pool on the first day after the drive to get some energy out, as you can see from the video not all their energy. We walked to and from the park every day (about .7-mile walk and does not cross any major streets). This is a smaller hotel, we did not see a shuttle, they also do not have a breakfast, but they do have coffee that we helped ourselves to and drank on the way to the park every day. Only issues we had was with the internet that was not working the first day we arrived and then a smoke detector went off another night but both issues were resolved as soon as we contacted the front desk.
Pro Tip: When visiting Disneyland, you can leave the hand sanitizer at home to save weight. There are no germs in the magic kingdom..
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching. True, no germs :-) But honestly, they do have hand sanitizer all throughout both Disneyland and California Adventure so unless you have a specific brand you prefer, there is plenty in the park.
Great Video! We didn’t keep the ballon drop either no fair! Keep Cruising my Friends!
Thank you for watching. We are going back on Harmony in September. When was your cruise?
@@NanaPoppyTravels Will it still be in Galveston in September? I was onboard in April.
@@Cruisetravelexplore Yes, it is out of Galveston and goes to CocoCay, we are super excited. How lucky to have just been on the ship. No balloon drop though? Crazy. I'll catch up on some of your videos. Excited.

Sounds like it was a nice trip
@bobbybostic7947 Thanks for watching! And yes, it was a great trip had by all. Maybe you can make it for the next one.
wow what a trek! what's the hottest it gets?
@MisterVaughn Thanks for watching! The weather was much cooler than it looks on camera. Page is over 4,000 feet elevation and cooler than the Phoenix area. At the start the temperature was in the 30s Fahrenheit and the high was only around 60. We were lucky though, the year before it had rained all day which would have made conditions more difficult.
Nice job on the race guys and gals! And great video!
Thank you for watching. This is an absolute beautiful course, but not a course if you're looking for a PR. Looks like you've been on some amazing adventures. Look forward to seeing where you go.
Damn....we miss you two!!
@bamatrekkers56 Nana and I crewed for Badwater for someone who looked just like you 🙂Hope you are doing well in retirement.

Nathan goes 4 times throughout a one week cruise normally, Amy will try, although that depends on how hungover she is! 😂
Kudos to Nathan!! We get so lazy when we cruise. Truly we need to be better. Hangover work outs are impossible.
@@NanaPoppyTravels Haha! It's very easy to not go, especially as it's your holiday! 😂
@@NamyDoesCruising so true!! Proud of you guys (mostly Nathan) for making it there.
Is there a heavy bag or speed bag for boxing?
@@meganchen8943 Thanks for watching! We did not see either a heavy bag or speed bag when we were walking around but they may offer a boxing class as they had different classes throughout the cruise.
