    For those who drive to Disneyland- road trip traditions

    We drive from Seattle and always stop for dinner at Grandma's House in Yreka and for lunch at Pea Soup Andersens in Santa Nella!

    What's the point of the Castaway Cay Club?

    I will call DCL shortly to verify these changes. I am a TA and received no notice of any changes to the program. I have checked the DCL TA portal, and there have been no updates announced through their "News" section, nor through their "Castaway Club" section.

    Guaranteed staterooms means that they are still selling that category, and they guarantee you that you will receive at least that category or better when they assign the stateroom numbers just before sailing.

    This is our first time traveling with the kids too, so we will have a learning curve! (This is our 7th cruise) The stateroom host will be able to get you bedrails if you need them. You can also request a diaper genie! I think character breakfasts are only on 7 night cruises or longer. The...

    Same as you for Key West, although we will probably get back to the ship by 4 so the kids can have a quick nap/rest time. Day at sea is probably just hang around characters and walk around Deck 4 and look at the waves :). In Nassau we are going to get off, walk around, and get back on the ship...

    We should go together in Key West! Looks like we are both doing the aquarium and then walking to Southernmost Point with kids in the same age group! Are you planning anything else? I think we are going to head back to the ship for a quick nap before showtime.

    We are DVC Members too! The DVC presentation to Members is usually on a day at sea, so most likely it will be on the 22nd. If they have it in the morning, they have offered mimosas and champagne. They also will give you DVC Member hats. There is usually a raffle for prizes too. Be on the lookout...

    Last time we were in Key West we tried to walk to the Southernmost Point but got lost because we only had the DCL "maps." I am prepared this time! We are going to walk to the Point after we go to the aquarium. Just bringing umbrella strollers for the kids. It was a pleasant walk last time, but...

    We wanted to do it but decided against it because we didn't think our 2 and 3 year old could handle 2 long beach days in a row. We really thought they would get a kick out of Atlantis' aquarium though...it is pretty cool.

    Atlantis has a nice private beach. If you book through Disney, they offer the Atlantis Beach Day excursion. It covers the beach, your lunch, and admission to the aquarium. The waterpark is not included in that excursion.

    Agreed, my 2 and 3 year old do not need to be in a cab in Nassau. The bus would have been fine but we decided Castaway Cay was the only beach day we needed and there is no other way to get to Atlantis without a car :(

    We got tickets to the Aquarium in Key West (used my own resources since I am a TA). In Nassau, we were going to do Disney's Atlantis Beach Day but instead decided to stay on the ship. We have been to both places before. If you have never been to Atlantis though, I highly recommend it!

    Seabands braclets???

    I swear by SeaBands! Dramamine and similar pills/tablets just don't work for me at all. When we were in Alaska, I was waking up at every night sick from the ship rocking (didn't do that during the day). I slipped the SeaBands on and was instantly back to sleep. As a matter of fact, I started to...

    We will go to the Promenade Lounge at 3pm :) Last time we went to the meet, no one showed up! Should we all meet near the actual bar so we are recognizable? Or maybe right next to the internet lounge?

    We are on second dining (our usual) but this is our first time sailing with kids. We live on the west coast though, so it is like eating at normal time for our kids...we just plan to sleep in every day and not adjust the time zone. It helps that we have an inside stateroom so it will stay dark!

    In Key West we are going to take the kids to the aquarium and then the Southermost Point. We were going to do the Atlantis Beach Day in Nassau but cancelled it last night in favor of going to the Nassau Pirate Museum. We already pulled out a few suitcases and set aside a few things that need...

    Are we crazy?

    We are about to go on our 7th Disney Cruise, but this is our very first cruise with kids! We are renting a car, so my husband is planning to drop me and my 2 and 3 year old kids off at the port (Canaveral) to check in while he returns the car. I will probably have to put at least the 2 year old...

    DCL Transfers Port to WDW

    How long does the trip take going back to WDW like that? We will be staying at Beach Club. We usually rent a car and drive or take the bus back to the airport. Thank you so much for your answers!
