In answer to your question about the tech booth for the theater, it's because having the booth there puts the sound engineer in the sound cone. That allows for more accurate audience experience sound mixing. When a booth is behind audience seating at the far back of the house (often due to trying to maximize ticket sales from available audience locations), it's not possible to mix in that sweet spot. Some smaller roadhouse theaters have implemented tablet technology to allow the engineer to stand in the cone and mix a remote board, but theaters who can afford it (like anything Disney owns) don't have to worry about the cost of "butts in seats". Nothing beats having the sound board to hand in the prime speaker throw.
I love that atrium too, can’t wait to see it in person. I do think that atrium with backstage for the performers was the main reason they could not have a mid ship elevator shaft.
I know reviews have been mixed on the Wish, but I can’t wait to go on it. I purposely booked it for next year so that all the kinks will be worked out. I also don’t mind the bars and lounges spread out all over the ship, I actually prefer it. I can’t wait for the Frozen dining experience.
Thank you so much for sharing authentically and honestly what your experience on the Wish was. In the first 18 minutes of this video, I feel like I saw more stuff and learned more than other vlogger's entire trip. You guys are wonderful and I hope you had an amazing vacation together!!!
When "Every time I pulled out my wallet, I got compliments" is a metaphor. I think a throne chair belongs in that atrium porthole space for Sleepwalking Goofy to sit on! Speaking for runners, we run every day especially when cruising. Exactly how hi was the ship designer and had he ever taken a Disney cruise before? The "jogging track" on the Sports Deck is an obstacle course. I've been hearing about the lifts from all the independent vloggers too. It's a massive inconvenience especially when you're paying premium prices for a Disney cruise. There should have been three sets of lifts instead of two for a ship that size. The QM2 has four sets of lifts. Why? Because of convenience. That's what guests are paying for. There's a lot of cost-cutting onboard the Wish. Much of it in the elimination of non-revenue public spaces.
Banana Boats are a work out!! You have to clench your legs to hang on, your arms screaming in pain trying to hold. I flew off on top of my nephew. Plus for me to get back on was a chore! Enjoyed but will not do again!! :)
I can answer why the sound guys are right there. Since they control what you hear, the best spot is where you are sitting. This helps keep all the different sounds at the right volume and sound the best.
The booth down low is a much smaller set up with only one or two screens. The REAL booth is on deck 4 on the Dream and fantasy behind the guests in the mezzanine. But I do see what you’re referring to :)
In 2 weeks we're boarding the wish🎉 I need to know if we can eat one night in arandela and another night in Marvel ( I have 2 girls and 2 boys), that's why 😊
Very interested in how back to back cruising works. I've heard somewhere that a 3 night/4 night can be cheaper than a 7 night. Although I always enjoy your park content, I am loving your cruise content. Thank You!
I have a feeling with the show all of those things like the confetti or somebody being out there with a flashlight or that metal sheet or the fact they were having to use a rock in place of a boat is probably all due to the fact that everything the show needs has not made it in yet. With Disney not even being able to do the show for media cruise it has to be because so many things have not made it in. They didn’t want their media people who were invited to let others know about those issues. In six months to a year I have a feeling that show will be all put together and everything will be there. I do think that Disney probably should’ve waited another three or four months before doing the first cruise. I think the reason they didn’t was because they had already pushed it back so much and it became too much trouble and they were losing money and just decided to go with it.
loving this ship! btw i used to work at House Of Blues and its actually not surprising to see the sound engineer stationed where he was during Little Mermaid (fyi :)) thank you for posting this!
I’m really enjoying watching your videos. They are informative and engaging. Question for you. You did a back to back cruise and said you were going to be platinum and Dakota was going to be gold on the next sailing. Did you get new lanyards on the second half of your B2B and new castaway club gifts? We’re doing a B2B this month and going from silver to gold in between as well. Thanks.
Second comment and let me say this is all just personal opinion. I am not an architect and I don’t design anything, buildings houses or ships, LOL. If that ship was built to be more of a ship for three or four night cruises to me that really limits the ships capabilities. To me the ship, especially considering the size of the ship, should be built so it can accommodate no matter what the length of the cruise happens to be. A ship this size to me would make sense in the future to move it to a seven night cruise ship. If there wasn’t a walking/running track put in because the designer was thinking of a three night or four night cruise I think that’s silly. Not only are there still people on those cruises that would like a walking/running track but there should be one in case they ever decide to do longer cruises consistently on board that ship. Also, there are just so many features on that ship that seem like wasted space and not great as far as helping with the flow of people. There’s too many hallways that seem to be narrow and unnecessary. It seems like the way things are laid out it gets very confusing where to go. I hope that the other ships that they build they will keep in mind these issues and change things. It’s still a gorgeous ship but it being built in this day and age it seems like a lot of things would’ve made sense not to do.
Another great video Adrian! Thank you! I have a question. I have never been on a cruise. Do you have to share a table with strangers? Also, what determines where you sit? You were so pleased with your table and I believe that made it so much nicer too! And is it the same for all fine dining? Thank you again! Stay safe!💕
If your party is small enough then yes you will be sat with others at the same table. Koda and I called just after booking and we requested to sit alone and requested a close up table to the Arendelle stage. Other than that we don’t know what else goes into table assignments
I love how he screamed puddle and the person in the hairs reaction
The Violinist killed it for the last night of dinner. That was my 2nd favorite restaurant
We loved him!
The bad thing about paddle boats is you have to paddle back.

We weren’t fans of it but then again we don’t drink much lol so I’m glad others are enjoying it!
I am loving these longer videos!!
“Koda, does this look like a wedding venue area?” Hmmmmm 🤨🧐🤨🧐 I really enjoy your honesty so much! Booked for the wish in October.

This comment made my day! Thank you so much! ☺️
At 24:03 there actually is a lift attached to those double railings for wheelchairs to access that area
I am still looking for the lizard aka iguana 🤣
Finally, something good to watch as I deal with Covid. Ooo I miss that island sooo much!!
Oh nooo! I hope you get better soon!

Note: tech booth on Fantasy & Dream same place as Wish. We like to sit right in the row where it’s at. Carl & Linda

Loving your cruise vlogs-this was really interesting. Love hearing your views on The Wish! Thanks for sharing!
Your videos always make me smile! Keep doing what you do!
Thanks for these awesome videos. I’ve REALLY enjoyed them

That prime rib looked amazing! Thanks for sharing your cruise. 🤩
I am anxious to see the B2B information and if it’s different from my previous B2B. I will be B2 B on the Wish in September
I see you’re a fan of the lightning or flash . The wish looks like the best cruise .
This looks awesome, thanks for sharing your experience with us. Question! When doing back to back cruises does it count as 2 separate cruises?
Yes it counts as two separate cruises :)
I believe the Wish layout wasn't thought out very well🤔😏🙄 Loving watching your Wish adventures and thoughts about the ship👍🥰⚓🚢
Great video thanks !
That’s the Marvels campus as a restaurant diner
OMG! Where are Koda’s (hopefully spelled that right) rose gold ears with the navy bow with the gold anchors from??
From the Disney Dream ship!
I also bought the same pair in Disney Springs at the Co-Op. Not sure if they still have it there though.

Are the rooms narrower I noticed at how you almost have to squeeze by at the end of the bed?
And inside of it is a restaurant diner
First and also I saw you on the wish
I feel like this ship is like being in a maze. I would be lost everyday.
Completely random question, but we are going on our first Disney cruise soon and I was wondering if Shirley Temples cost extra during dining.
They do not cost extra! We get them every night! Extra cherries!
Great vlog 😃😃😊😊
I think your towel animal looks like a whale shark because of the large mouth in front thanks for all the great videos love them
21:00 21:14 21:20
Why do you keep calling it Castaway “Key” not Cay??
Because that’s how you say it. I don’t get what your asking.
@@Ujwjsjsmsd I think you answered it in a live. It’s spelled C A Y right. I’ve never been didn’t know it was pronounced that way
Mis Ariel i don't feel so good
