Disney Cruise Recap Days 3 and 4

Day 3

Day 3 started out with some morning snuggles! Then the kids went to the kid’s club so the adults could enjoy the spa. I didn’t take any pictures inside the spa area, but we enjoyed checking it out. I will say that we probably won’t do the spa on our next cruise. I found it hard to lay around and relax when there were so many other fun things I wanted to do and experience! After the spa, we met up with my dad for some lunch.

Disney Cruise Day 2 at Castaway Cay

We woke up to a gorgeous view out of our verandah on the second day of our cruise. Disney Cruiseline has its own private island called Castaway Cay – it’s one of my favorite parts of the Bahamas cruise itinerary! I was so pumped about spending the day at the beach that I actually woke up before everyone else. So I decided to go up to deck 11 to grab some coffee and take some pictures of the ship while it was still quiet and calm.

That view!

I’ve been dying to take another Disney Cruise since we got home from our first one last April. My dad joined us this time and we were all SO ready to make some wonderful memories on the Disney Dream. We got to the port super early and scored boarding group 2. That meant that we were some of the first people on the ship! It was a really great first day, despite the kids being a little grumpy. I think they were probably just a little overwhelmed.

Fun Things to Do on a Disney Cruise | Disney Cruise Recap

By on September 12, 2019

I was trying to think of a good way to share the rest of the photos from our Disney Cruise back in April, and I realized I could just do one long “photo-dump” blog post with all the pictures and title it “Fun Things to Do on a Disney Cruise.” Because literally, EVERYTHING on a Disney Cruise is super fun! From the shows to the food, to the pools, to the games – even just walking around the ship and exploring is SO much FUN! Really the only thing that wasn’t fun was the fact that I got tonsilitis on the second day and was sick with a fever and sore throat the rest of the trip. (SO not fair!) But despite my 101-degree fever, we still had a blast!

Here’s a list of all the fun things we loved while on our cruise.

Fun Things to Do on a Disney Cruise:

There are a few fun things to do even before you board the ship. We explored the terminal at Port Canaveral while we were waiting and found a few Disney surprises. Like this neat model ship! There’s even a game you can play with an app on your phone where you find a couple of Disney characters on board the tiny ship. There’s also an opportunity to take a picture with a Disney character dressed up in their nautical outfit!
