Travel and Fun Things To Do
Boarding day was finally here and we were up and ready to go to the port fairly early. Georgia’s sunburn was bothering her, so Jay went to buy some aloe. We figured it would be much cheaper buying before we got on the cruise. When Jay returned from the store he said he saw a…
After the long day yesterday, we slept in late on Saturday. Unlike other trips, I had not made any definitive plans. We knew we wanted to visit the beach and Old San Juan so we did. The Beach As I mentioned in my last post our hotel offered a shuttle service to the beach. It…
Looking for a way to avoid a long Canadian winter we booked the Disney repositioning cruise from San Juan PR to New Orleans LA. I love repositioning cruises. It gives you an opportunity to visit two different ports before and after the cruise. This repo was mainly sea days with a stop at Castaway Cay….
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 port of call is Portland UK. We were unsure of what to do here. The marquee shore excursion is Stonehenge. The time onshore was short and Stonehenge is far from the port and the safest way to visit is through DCL cruise excursions. I didn’t see any glowing reviews; many people complain that…
Picking up from where I left off on the last post. We waited only a few minutes before our boarding number was called and we were ready to let the Magic begin. I thought that the Port of Dover did a good job of getting people on the ship. The waiting area was large with…
Disney Cruise Transportation to Dover is offered from Gatwick and Heathrow airport. It is also offered from a few Hotels in London if you book your hotel room through Disney Cruise Lines. 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….
