My wife and I took our two kids (4 & 6) on the Disney Dream on February 9th-13th. I gotta say Disney is the best when it comes to the customer service, shows, ship cleanliness and organization. We all had a fun time, despite a couple of things beyond DCL's control:

1.) The weather was very windy and about 70 degrees most of the cruise. We did the dolphin encounter at Blue Lagoon Island in Nassau. The weather was so windy that it made the whole dolphin experience kinda painful for the kids. No disrespect to the company that runs the Dolphin Encounter though. The service, employees and dolphin experience was great.

2.) Due to the wind again, we were unable to port at Castaway Cay. My wife and I were very disappointed as we knew that was to be the highlight of our cruise. We did not tell the kids too much about CC in advance, so they weren't too disappointed. I gotta give the captain of the ship props because they tried all day to get into the narrow port canal at CC. No luck though, it was just too windy. Luckily there was plenty to do on the ship and the day was not lost for a minute. I know a lot of passengers were disappointed, but you can't predict the weather I guess. Read more
