Creator's Key Takeaways
We're fortunate enough that this is our third time aboard the Disney Magic now, so we know the ship very well at this point.
The food on board is fantastic and it's all included in the price of the cruise.
We were lucky that this two-week cruise from Galveston, Texas over to San Diego, California matched up with the kids' school holidays perfectly.
It's been a wonderful cruise. Um, enjoyed every minute. It's exactly what I hoped it would be.
