1. Disney Dream Marvel Day at Sea Cruise: Day Three – Grand Cayman

    After our incredible albeit very long and tiring Marvel Day at Sea onboard the beautiful Disney Dream, a much more chilled and relaxed day was definitely needed which thankfully is exactly what we got. When we first woke up on this morning, we were already anchored in Grand Cayman and it looked like it was going to be even more relaxed than what we thought as it was raining heavily and you could barely even see George Town and if the weather had stayed like that, we would have remained onboard that day. However luckily for us (and as is usual in the Caribbean), an hour later there was bright blue skies and sunshine and it turned into the most beautiful day of our entire trip so far. (more…)

  2. Disney Dream Marvel Day at Sea Cruise: Day Two – At Sea

    On our first full day onboard the Disney Dream, I woke up just after 6:00am ready for our Marvel Day at Sea – one of the main reasons why we had booked this exact cruise! We already knew that it was going to be a very long day ahead but we also knew that we wanted to see and do as much as we possibly could so we had also set an alarm to make sure that we did not sleep in that morning – and the trouble with Disney Cruise Line beds is that they are so comfortable, that you do not want to move!

  3. The Best View at Aulani – A Tour of our Oceanview Hotel Room

    Staying at Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa located in Ko Olina on the island of Oahu in Hawaii really was a dream come true for me. We had originally booked to stay at Aulani back in 2020 which as we know did not happen so I was excited when we could eventually rebook for our rescheduled trip in 2022. After waiting for what felt like forever to get there, it was truly perfect and everything we could gave hoped for when we finally began our Hawaiian adventure that we had looked forward to for so long.

  4. How to Get from Sofia Airport to Sofia City Centre by Metro

    When I started to research how to get from Sofia Airport into the city centre of Sofia using public transport, it became immediately apparent that there was very little information online about this journey and what information there was available was very old and out of date. So on my recent trip to Sofia in November 2023 I made sure to take plenty of photos and have now written this blog and travel guide with all the latest, current, up to date and correct information to help anyone who is flying into Bulgaria.

  5. Staying At The Iconic Wigwam Motel On Route 66

    The iconic Wigwam Motel located in the town of Holbrook in Arizona along Historic Route 66 had been on my bucket list of places that I had wanted to stay at for a very long time. So after many attempts and several cancelled trips over the last few years, I was so happy that we finally managed to stay there in September this year when we drove 4244 miles from New York to Los Angeles via Route 66!

  6. Pros and Cons of Sailing Back to Back on Disney Cruise Line

    If you have ever sailed on any cruise before, you normally have the same feeling on the last night which is usually “I really don’t want to get off tomorrow” shortly followed by “I wish we could stay onboard for another cruise”. I know that I have definitely always felt like this so earlier this year we booked a “Back to Back” sailing (two consecutive cruises on the same ship) onboard the Disney Wish and it was truly one of the best decisions we have ever made.

  7. How to Run (or Walk) the Castaway Cay 5K

    At the top of my list of things to do when I visited Castaway Cay on the beautiful Disney Wish earlier this year was to finish the Castaway Cay 5K. Castaway Cay is Disney Cruise Line’s private island located in the Bahamas and despite visiting Castaway Cay four times prior to this cruise, I never imagined that I would ever be able to complete the 5K. However on this trip, I really wanted to push myself and try something new and different, so I decided to walk (as I cannot run to save my life) the Castaway Cay 5K. (more…)

  8. Over 150 of the Best Disney Cruise Line Tips and Tricks

    If you are either dreaming about or planning an amazing cruise onboard the beautiful Disney Magic, Disney Wonder, Disney Dream, Disney Fantasy or the brand new Disney Wish (as well as the future Disney Treasure and Disney Adventure), I can honestly say that you will have an absolutely incredible time sailing with Disney Cruise Line. I have now sailed on twelve different cruises and itineraries (including Alaska, the Bahamas, Caribbean, Transatlantic and Hawaii) on all five of the current ships in the Disney Cruise Line fleet and it has definitely become one of my favourite ways to travel as well as being one of my happy places.

  9. Visiting Shanghai Once Again in Summer 2023

    Last week I finally had the opportunity to visit Shanghai once again after being away for so long due to the pandemic. Given what has happened in China during the last few years where they had the strictest rules and lockdowns imaginable, constant testing for everyone and long quarantines followed by the subsequent riots across the country when people desperately started to fight back against all the protocols after seeing that the rest of the world had moved on, I was truly interested to see how it would be.
