This is our second cruise with Disney. I love being on the sea so this trip offered quite a few days of sailing without a stop at a port.

Embarkation was easy and relatively quick. When we saw the lines, my heart sank but it was really quite quick to be processed. We had a nice room with veranda on Deck 8 midship. As it turns out, we were on the side of the ship that overlooked all the action when we were going through the Panama Canal (sorry don't know the term but if you are facing the bow,our room was on the right side). It was close to the stairs and elevators, the decks with pools and other fun stuff. We would walk up and down stairs to the restaurants on Deck 4 & 5 until my thighs had had enough of the exercise. The elevators could be quite crowded especially for the evening meals and activities. The food was great but essentially "eating out" for all meals for 2 weeks got a bit tiresome. Even if you were watching how much you ate, it seemed like a lot.

Towards the end of the cruise (well, maybe half way through) we started to comment that it was "feeding time" and then we would moo like cows. We did not do this in public so you are the first to hear of it. However, this is our problem and not Disney's. I was recently diagnosed with Type II Diabetes and the servers were very accommodating to provide me with extra vegetables at meals. Read more
