Some of you might be shocked that I didn't film the sail away party. I would have but I was in the spa getting a massage. There is literally nothing more me than that is there? ALSO several of you have mentioned that my stateroom is just a Verandah stateroom not a family stateroom and I put that in the description but I'll put it here as well. It's a category 5A which, according to the DIsney Cruise Line website has the title Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Verandah. Thanks!
🙋♀️ I would have done the same!! I deserve a massage any time I can get one. Especially at a Disney spa! side note: the company that makes H2O products is going out of business?? eta: you are the first vlogger I have seen that knew that the stretch band item was meant for a pool/beach chair to keep the towel in place. 👏👏👏
Good for you! I’m glad you got to enjoy the spa! You look great, I know they’re not so new anymore but your bangs are so becoming on you. Thank you for doing this video I love to learn about the cruises. 🎉
Haha, apparently we got on the ship at exactly the same time! I can hear our names getting announced. It was so lovely meeting you on the last night!!!
Can I just go ahead and have a Te Fiti mural above my bed at home? I’m sure my husband would be so happy about it…what a beautiful stateroom! Thank you for vlogging in your authentic Jen Lefforge style.
Waaahhhh.... this made me miss it even more than I was already missing it! 😭 It was so special and magical and it was overwhelming, but also relaxing and fun. Can't wait to go on another one!
Totally love the light labels!! We all stand around clicking and looking numerous times to see what we've turned on and off!! So glad you had a great first day!
And YOU KNOW of course that came to me as I was going to sleep that night. I loved that neither Charlie or I could come up with it (spoiler we are the same age so he for sure knew it, too LOL)
Jen thank you for sharing your arrival day on the Wish. It occurred to me you had a room to yourself. Not a bad idea I’ve been wanting to take another Disney cruise but my friends are not interested. I see a voyage for myself in 2023. Looking forward to your upcoming Wish vlogs.
This was my second time cruising with my own stateroom and although I don't love that you pay the same as if there were 2 people in the room, I LOVE IT. Such a fabulous luxurious way to travel!
We just returned from 4 night cruise on the Wish. Pluses and minuses vs. Other DCL ships. We found food, service at all points and entertainment was excellent. We have been on all 5 DCL ships, so evaluation is reliable.
What beautiful ship and a great cabin you have! Love that Inaugural tote bag! (I’m obsessed with tote bags, lol!) I would book a trip just for the bag, hahaha!!!🤣🤣😬 Can’t wait for the other videos! Thanks so much! ❤️❤️❤️
So we were on the same cruise! I did see you, actually twice but both times you were busy having a conversation with someone… we were actually at the Bayou lounge as well first night and I heard your voice! You seemed to be really into your conversation and I didn’t want to interrupt… I said to my husband (we were sitting one table over lol) that I’ll wait for the right moment to “butt in” lol. Well, somehow I missed the moment when you left… I am kicking myself now! Anyway - I agree with you, the Wish is breathtakingly beautiful. I found myself walking around looking at the details everywhere. It was so overwhelming but in a good way. However in the end, not my fav Disney ship. While the restaurants were great, did not enjoy how loud Arendelle or Marvel was. We don’t even love Frozen… so if we ever go on the Wish again, we’d skip it and try Marceline or something, hopefully will be open for dinner one day. Oh and can I say, we had the best weather? Hot, yes, but compared to all the rain on Florida, we lucked out big time. Also, the smoothest sailing ever! Not once did we feel the ship’s motion. Can’t wait for more vlogs and see where you’re headed next :)
LOL well let's say maybe anywhere Disney? In my local neighborhood I'm still blissfully unknown (well aside from that one time my dentist told me he watched the channel;)
We were in the same room on 9/9-9/12. Loved the room, the slightly extended veranda on the bump out and the upgrades to the bathrooms. Just found your vlog. Thanks for your review.
Oh my gosh!! I got tears in my eyes too. If you get it you get it. Love your dress and ears. And someone recognized you 😀. Have a wonderful trip. FYI I just made a reservation with Transportation by Mike because of your recommendation.
Hi Jen, I just got off the Wish 9/9-9/12. I was lost much of the cruise but need another cruise to fully enjoy it. The shows were excellent but food was just okay. Hyperspace Lounge was okay I guess but The Bayou was fabulous. I traveled solo and had great weather except sailing day in the afternoon. It poured delaying our sail way party on the deck. I travel again in November- Thanksgiving week
@@JenLefforge truly you are making all of this sickness time in my life bearable! I love watching your lives - journaling organization tips for when I’m home and also following through on a much smaller hospital room space
Not me immediately browsing DCL's website after watching this amazingness 🤣😭 But seriously, I've never been super interested in cruising, but it looks like the Wish could be the very thing that converts me!
I can’t wait to see what you think about the ship! I think it’s harder for veteran Disney cruisers to adjust to the layout honestly and I tried very hard to not constantly compare. It’s very different but in good ways!
@@JenLefforge It has been almost 7 years since I’ve been on a Disney ship. We got pregnant w no 2 then. And then we had a toddler and didn’t want to cruise w her being under 3. We were going to go in 2019, cancelled to spend 2 weeks w my husband’s grandparents in CA again. That turned out to be a great decision bc Oma died July of 2020. We had one booked for February of 2021. And then May. And then I just gave up. So, here we are and I’m. So. Excited.
Jen Lefforge really mean it 🥰 am currently trying to work out a way for us to afford to do a 3 night Wish cruise when we are in Florida next August 🤣 I just need to convince my husband that it is ok to spend money on a cruise when we will already paid for a villa and hire car for those three day as the cruise is in the middle of our holiday and we have booked a package 🤣 I might need a PowerPoint presentation to sell it 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️xxx
This cruise was redemptive. Our DCL cruise on Magic earlier this summer was "off." Something was off. Very unusual for DCL. Anyway, this cruise told us DCL is back. We would sail again on the Wish, and will sail again with DCL.
It’s here! Cruise day!! I was wondering if this was your gold sailing but got the answer. It would be cool if they had something for people that sail every ship.
I aspire to me as brave and confident as you to do a solo cruise! Question - would you do a cruise alone or travel alone as much if not for dual purpose of your channel?
I started traveling on my own when my boys were super young but the channel definitely means I do it more than I would especially since I no longer have a day job so I can travel whenever. Great question!!
Our cruise isn't until next year, but I'm so excited!! Our cabin is also on deck 10!😄I have heard from Adam Hattan on his vlog that, the inaugural sailings are all the sailings for the first year, do you know if that's true? I want all the inaugural goodies!😍
@@JenLefforge Could you share what brand the label in the dress says so I can check out their line (when you are back in your cabin recovering from all the festivities)? I am so excited to use my new Away Everywhere Bag and Bigger Carry On luggage - thanks to you! 😍
Oh yes, they do. Year's ago, at 16, I worked very hard, as did my best friend, to save for traveling to Europe; a wish and dream of mine. Another so-called friend said "You'll never do it, never get there." Our first stop, after landing in London, England, I sent her a post card that said "Guess where I am...and you're not?" Dream's, wishes, and hard work go hand in hand. Maybe that's why yours don't come true...

Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Jen! What time we are able to embark? I am doing my countdown to November...
Haha, apparently we got on the ship at exactly the same time! I can hear our names getting announced. It was so lovely meeting you on the last night!!!
Jascha that's crazy! I love that! Although we would have had even MORE fun if we'd met at that moment:). Lovely meeting you both!
That's wild that you met someone in the theme park, stayed in touch, and saw again on a cruise. Only those who love Disney can do that.
Disney people are awesome! That's the only explanation.
I am 😭. It has been 21 years since we sailed on the wonder. Thanks for sharing your feelings. It is real and magical.
Thank you Gina! It was far more I operant to me to capture the feelings than the actually ships details so that means a lot to me.❤️
Can I just go ahead and have a Te Fiti mural above my bed at home? I’m sure my husband would be so happy about it…what a beautiful stateroom! Thank you for vlogging in your authentic Jen Lefforge style.
I absolutely thing you must do this. No question.
Waaahhhh.... this made me miss it even more than I was already missing it! 😭 It was so special and magical and it was overwhelming, but also relaxing and fun. Can't wait to go on another one!
same, Charlie! So much same! So glad you were there to share the fun with me!
Totally love the light labels!! We all stand around clicking and looking numerous times to see what we've turned on and off!! So glad you had a great first day!
It's a mason jar, lol. Great video! I'm so sad I missed this cruise!
And YOU KNOW of course that came to me as I was going to sleep that night. I loved that neither Charlie or I could come up with it (spoiler we are the same age so he for sure knew it, too LOL)
Living vicariously through all of this! Can’t wait to sail on the Wish some day!

Love this series. Can't wait for the next one, The Wish is so beautiful.
It truly is exquisite and I loved every minute!
HAPPY for YOU …if YOU REALLY
ARE ENJOYING YOURSELF 🐭👑🐭
and it is RECREATIONALLY REWARDING to YOU
CHEERS 🍷
Thanks for sharing! Our cruise is coming up and we'll be in cabin 10538 just a few away from where you stayed! This was super helpful.
Love everything about this video. Especially the joy on your face!!! ❤️
Oh thank you, Cyndi!
Love how happy you are in this. Also, beautiful dress. And the shower seems really big for a cruise shower. Loving this series.
Yes the whole cabin felt really spacious!! Thanks for watching!!
I love how excited you are and again, you just seem even more happy and excited than usual! Love it
Thanks, Chevonne!

Having a rough day today. A lovely Jen Disney video always helps! Looks like a lovely ship
I'm so sorry to hear that, Ashlee, but very glad I can give you a brief escape!
Oh my gosh!! I got tears in my eyes too. If you get it you get it. Love your dress and ears. And someone recognized you 😀. Have a wonderful trip. FYI I just made a reservation with Transportation by Mike because of your recommendation.

Yes element is such a fantastic word for it!
Awesome hope you enjoyed thanks for sharing.

Sailing on the Wish in a couple weeks so your vlogs are coming at the perfect time for me :) ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad, Ivy!

Looks amazing! 😍
It’s here! Cruise day!! I was wondering if this was your gold sailing but got the answer. It would be cool if they had something for people that sail every ship.
YES that would be amazing. I STILL haven't sailed the Fantasy or the Wonder.
@@JenLefforge Goals…In the words of the great Picard, make it so!!
I aspire to me as brave and confident as you to do a solo cruise! Question - would you do a cruise alone or travel alone as much if not for dual purpose of your channel?

I hope that’s true! I don’t honestly know. But I loved deck 10 - so convenient to everything and just one deck below all the food
My husband will be thrilled to know we are so close to all the food! 😂 Can't wait to see the rest of your days on the Wish!!
I am feeling all the feels and I’m not even ON the ship! One day though….
I hope that happens for you! I had never sailed at all until our first cruise in 2009 and waited for decades so I get this!
Love the video. Can I ask the brand of the embarkation dress? It’s gorgeous!!
I think it's sold out everywhere but it's by a brand called Love Ellie
Why did you chose private car transportation vs the Disney Cruise Bus from your hotel to the port? Thanks
Convenience. It’s not that much more expensive and they pick up only me.
Love your maxi dress. When convenient, can you share the link? Thanks so much for sharing with us all. 💕
I would but it's no longer available. I bought it originally from Stitch Fix.
@@JenLefforge Could you share what brand the label in the dress says so I can check out their line (when you are back in your cabin recovering from all the festivities)? I am so excited to use my new Away Everywhere Bag and Bigger Carry On luggage - thanks to you! 😍
It's by a brand called Love Ellie! Good luck!
Was this room ever noisy from being just below the quick serve food spots?
Nope. I heard tables being moved ONCE near the end of the cruise and it was around 7am so didn't bother me at all.
@@JenLefforge Thanks for your reply! I just booked this room today! :)
The ears? Where did you get them? Enjoy your trip
THey're from BBBrooke www.shopbbbrooke.com
Is this room noisy? I saw it was under the dining area.
I remember hearing chairs being moved sometimes early in the morning but I’m an early riser anyway so it didn’t bother me
@@JenLefforge Thank you so much for your reply! This is so helpful.
i think im staying in this same room in july
I loved the location - just one stairway away from the pool deck and the food
Is this port canveral?
NVM, I think I just heard San Diego. TOTALLY so doable from San Francisco 😀
It IS Port Canaveral. The Wish will be sailing only from there this year.
10546 is a category 5A, which is not a family stateroom
Thanks if you read the description box you'll see I stated that there.
I absolutely hate to say this but I don't believe wishes or dreams come true.
I’m sorry you feel that way. Take care.
They do - but sometimes you have to help your wishes and dreams along
Oh yes, they do. Year's ago, at 16, I worked very hard, as did my best friend, to save for traveling to Europe; a wish and dream of mine. Another so-called friend said "You'll never do it, never get there." Our first stop, after landing in London, England, I sent her a post card that said "Guess where I am...and you're not?"
