Before the website changed, I thought I read that they do somethings on the cruises over Thanksgiving in addition to the Merrytime activities but I cannot find anything now. Does anyone know what they do, do they have a special Thanksgiving dinner, or anything else? We are leaving in two weeks for the cruise on the Wonder and were curious.
 
i was on Christmas Day one time they had a holiday meal just like a thanksgiving meal. It was really bad. Stuffing was the worse I had in my life. Remember the chefs are not from the USA maybe a couple. So it will not be like you are use to
 
Our TA sent us some info and it included the following:

Thanksgiving Day

A Thanksgiving feast will be served. Mickey and Minnie will be meeting and greeting guests while dressed in traditional Thanksgiving garb. Kids will enjoy holiday crafts and the jumbo LED screen Funnel Vision will feature the NFL football games being broadcast that day.

Hope this helps a little!

I've had that turkey meal on several cruises. It was pretty darn good, in my opinion.

We were on the Wonder two years over Thanksgiving week and they did serve the traditional turkey dinner. We will also be on the Wonder again with you in two weeks (or actually 9 days, but who's counting) :dogdance:
