My husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary this year. We wanted to do something different and decided to round up our kids and grandkids for a Disney Cruise. I chose the Dream because it was the newest and largest of the ships. For the most part, I can find very little to say against the cruise or the ship. There were a couple of things however that I would like to mention.

We stayed in stateroom 7592. It was a nice stateroom, pretty much what I expected it to be. I was a little surprised by the bathrooms though. I loved the fact that they were separated into two compartments, but the ceiling height was low. My husband is 6'1" and only had a few inches to spare. The public bathrooms out on the ship were fine..it was just the staterooms that were the shorter height. My son in law, who is a bigger man, felt very cramped.

The second thing I would like to make mention are the elevators. I hated them. When we first boarded, there was a CM there to help keep some resemblance of order. He would help each family in the order in which they came up to the elevators. After that? It was a fend for yourself. Good luck. I don't know that they need someone there all day, but at dinner times and showtimes, party times..etc a CM would be so much help. I know Disney can't control people's behavior, but they can give a crowd a direction. Not that i'm an expert, but take notice of the order in which you came to the elevators. If one opens up and the ones there before you aren't going that way, then by all means load up. But try to be courteous and recognize your position in line. Also, let the elevator empty before getting on. Very frustrating to move to the front of the elevator trying to get off on your deck when others are coming in adding to the people to get past. And talk to your kids before you go about elevator etiquette.
