Editorial Summary

The creators document their embarkation day aboard the Disney Fantasy at Port Canaveral, noting that this is the first Very Merrytime cruise of the season. The video begins with the family navigating COVID-19 testing requirements for all passengers, including their young son, Jackson. After receiving clear results, they board the ship and explore the festive holiday decorations. The creators highlight several onboard amenities, such as the themed stateroom surprises, the Cabanas dining area, and the Nemo's Reef splash pad. They also detail their dining experience at Animator's Palate and participate in a TV quote trivia game at The Tube. Throughout the day, the creators observe the ship's movement due to rocky seas and visit various character meet and greets featuring Pluto, Goofy, and others. The video concludes with the family reflecting on a successful first day and preparing for their upcoming visit to Nassau.
