    What a fantastic idea for a video, loved it.
    This video shows why people pay the higher prices, the food looked amazing, I agree love a good soup!
    I love the crush thing at Epcot so would love this! I think more should be made of adults only areas, look great.
    Look forward to the rest of the series.

      @@cruisingwiththe4bs Many thanks Tom, as you can imagine I’ll be having further videos on the comparative cost of Disney Cruise Line and of course, the incredible dining.
      I’ll have a full tour of the large Adult Only District area inside of the ship and the multilevel outdoor pools and sun decks coming up soon.
      Disney Cruise Line for me is underrated as one that’s perfect for adults along with children and families.

    So exciting!! I have always wanted to go on a Disney Cruise. Love seeing onboard and all those little Disney touches. Animator's Palate looks like a nice spot for lunch. Much more relaxing than the buffet battles LOL! I'm so intrigued by their soups now! Great cabin tour. The Star Wars Millennium falcon area is so cute. Awe hi R2!! I would love the Disney shows. Beautiful sunset. I love that even the dining rooms are themed. Your pasta looks so good. The food on Disney looks eons better than Royal (which I would always assume Disney does those things better but this looks MAGNITUDES better lol!) Fantastic video as always :)

    Staying at a hotel nearby the night before sailing away is an Excellent idea.
    No stress, just get on board.
    We really enjoyed dining at Animators Palete.
    Very nice room. We had the same.
    Loved the balcony.
    The spa is so relaxing.
    The kids club is Definitely Amazing and yes, maybe too good for kids! Lololol.
    We had a great time interacting with Crush in Animators Palete.
    Love the swan they left ya in your cabin!
    Excellent Day 1, My Friend!
    Totally enjoyed!
    Hope Everyone is having a Wonderful Cruise!

      Yes, that’s exactly it. The traffic getting to the port when there are 5 ships in can be a nightmare and that’s not how I want my holiday to begin.
      Animator’s Palette is probably my favourite restaurant, the food is always excellent and the interaction with Crush is very funny.

    I really enjoyed this! Everything looks so delicious and I think the Dream is one of the ships that I really would love to try. I watched the another video of the Wish, and it looks so broken up. I don't know if I'm explaining that right lol. I can't wait to see the rest of the vlogs! And the room - 5 people? I hope you do a room tour, I'm curious where the 5th sleeper is? Thank you so much for sharing!

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  2 місяці тому +1

      I think that the Dream and sister ship Fantasy are the best sized, the Magic and Wonder are quite small and I’ve heard similar issues as you regarding the Wish.
      You won’t be surprised to hear that I’m editing the cabin tour now and hopefully it’ll be up in a couple of days. Yes this cabin sleeps 5 comfortably, it was massive for the 2 of us 😂

      If you didn’t go to Blankenberge this time and explore I highly recommend it. Such a lovely seaside town with plenty of shops, cafes and bars and the Pier was great. I’ll have the vlog from there up soon.
      We have a Placeholder down and will probably be on the Fantasy too. There are some great deals on the Wish out of Florida though 😳
      Or maybe I’ll wait until she’s here in 2026?

      @ALifeintheParks  2 місяці тому +2

      Disney have a lot to answer for then 😂
      On short cruises where the rotational dining and then Pirate Night I can see why Cabanas is closed but on a longer cruise the choice of the buffet would be a great option.
