I am back after a very long delay. We had a busy summer that included a trip on the Disney Magic to the Northern Cities of Europe. September and October seem to have flown by. Will I get a trip report for our summer cruise posted before our cruise on the Wonder this winter? I […]
The first of our four sea days in a row. It was a warm day, 20 Celsius (68F), but a bit rocky in the morning. As the cruise went on the ocean became smoother. Sea days are one of the reasons we love transatlantic cruises. There are usually 5 or 6 of them. We get […]
Of all the ports the Disney Magic westbound transatlantic cruise was stopping at Cobh is the one I was most excited about. There are lots of options for excursions from Cobh and many you can do on your own. We wanted to do the Titanic Experience and found a company that offers the Titanic Trail […]
A fun way to prepare for your Disney Cruise is to make Disney Cruise magnets to decorate your cabin door. There are lots of fun designs you can make, order from Etsy, or download them from Facebook. Most people print them on a printer, laminate them and then glue or stick magnets to the back. […]

But, did you know you can book Disney Cruise transportation from London to Dover without staying in a Disney booked hotel? You can. […]
Before I move on to the cruise part of the trip, I thought I would make a post about our final thoughts on London. We loved the city and we are going back again this year for a week. London Hotel The hotel we stayed at, the Premier Inn Bankside, is in a fantastic location. […]

Our last day in London started with a visit to Borough market for croissants for breakfast. The plans include a Walk on Walk off Tour of the art at the National Gallery and tea with some friends at the gallery. We had a bit of a late start. The tour didn’t start until the afternoon […]
