There's so much to see and do on cruises that I'm sure poor Izzy was just a tad bit overwhelmed with everything. And using a particular set of cups/straws/bowls/spoons are always a point of contention with my son. I can't tell you how ridiculous I felt carrying around 3 different bowls in Landon's suitcase while we were moving because he had to have EACH ONE.
Totally understand!
It's funny how particular these little ones can be. I guess it's their way of exerting some control over their world.
The Cinderella meet and greet looks wonderful, even if the wait was a bit rocky. I love the backdrop they have for pictures. Very creative.
It was a great meet and the backdrop was cute - just wish it were easier to photograph.
I thought I had replied after your post with the first night's dinner but I guess not?
No worries.
That is what I typically did, order a fun drink at dinner since I had wine at other times lol!
Sounds like a good plan to me!
That's really cute that he did that
It was a nice surprise.
How fun!! I definitely want to do the FE next cruise. It just seemed like too much before, but I think the girls would get a kick out of it!
I'm sure they'd get a kick out of it. It was a lot of work for me before, but seeing Izzy light up every time we came back and found things was worthwhile.
Loved coming back to this each night!
Me too.
She was so attached to that Birdie for the rest of the trip...really cute.
Ugh, I know that feeling. Poor Izzy! And ridiculous guy for saying something so rude and then not even watching his own kids.
I felt so bad for Izzy. She just touched a soft rope and suddenly the world turns on her.
I just couldn't believe that dad - how did he not hear his own kids being scolded multiple times?!
Looks like Izzy had a super cute meet with Cinderella though, glad you guys stayed up for it.
It was really cute. Better than we expected. She just wanted to snuggle with her - so sweet!
(I put your other question down below with Cindi's to answer together).
Oh my gosh aren't they ridiculously expensive?! I ended up buying a few from both our cruises, but they were seriously a small fortune.
They really were $$$.
I wish there was an affordable photopass option, but those prices just forced us to skip buying any of them.
Aw glad she had a fun meet with Minnie!
Me too!
Now that's a great FE gift! Would never have thought to give out plush animals! (But I bet those are $$$)
Well, who knows, maybe they caught a deal? It was great, though. Such a perfect gift for Izzy.
Yep definitely not the best view. Man do I miss seeing the awesome theaters on those ships. They were gorgeous!
They were really pretty, especially when the view is better.
How annoying. Sorry that this all happened. And what's up with that dad?!
Thanks. I just was astonished at that dad. How did he not see his own kids running wild, yet he was paying enough attention to criticize my well-behaved kid?
I loved the one of her looking up at Cindy too, but this one is just oh so adorable
Yeah, I like that one a lot too! She was just so happy to be snuggling with her.
Room service comes in clutch on cruises! Especially since it's 'free'
Aw poor girly, must have been done for the day huh?
Ready for bed, for sure.
I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the servers. Were they pushy on the cruise at all regarding comments?
Also curious about your servers being "pushy" about comments. Ours on the Dream were awful in that respect, almost to the point where I left our last dinner with a yucky feeling about cruising again... Luckily, we had a totally different experience on the Wonder. Loved our servers, hard to leave them, and they only asked us to be truthful on our cards. Loved them!
Wow, I have to admit that I didn't even know what you guys were talking about at first. So, I guess ours were good.
Dug and I chatted earlier and we can't remember for sure, but think they mentioned one time that they strived to be excellent or something to that effect. But I don't remember ever feeling pressured. They were very pleasant.
Sorry you guys had rotten experiences in that regard.
Just caught up- great TR! Izzy was such a blast to attend character meets with! Can't wait to read more and also heading on over to your Aulani TR's!
Thank you! She sure does love her character meets!
