Creator's Key Takeaways

we are sailing on the Disney Dream for Christmas I am so excited

definitely to come to the sit down restaurant of your sailing... I didn't have to get to the buffet and fight for a table

make sure you get enough sleep for embarcation day it takes a lot out of you

the golden Mickey which was actually a really good show... really inspirational

Creator's Tips & Advice

Eat at the sit-down restaurant on embarkation day to avoid the buffet crowds
Get 8 hours of sleep before embarkation day as it is physically and mentally tiring
Visit the kids club during open house hours to register and let children explore
Go to Terminal 4 at Fort Lauderdale port for Disney Cruise departures
