Sail Date: Jul 2011
Traveled with children

I had been on this site many times and was concerned about our Disney Cruise after reading some of the reviews. I have sailed on Royal and NCL previously and enjoyed both, however this was my first sailing with kids. My girls are 8 and 11 years old. We did 5 days at Disney World first then scheduled to have DCL pick us up from our hotel. We were given notice in our resort room the night before that we would be picked up at 12:45 the next day to travel to Port Canaveral. We were greeted in the front of the resort at around 12:15 by a DCL employee who confirmed that she had our luggage on the way to the ship and that the bus was on the way. The bus arrived on time and we were pulling out of the parking lot at about 12:50. We arrived at Port Canaveral at around 2:15 and went into the terminal. We waited about 10 minutes before we were checked in and then did not have to wait any time to board the ship.

Once on board we went directly to our room that was ready and left our day bags then headed to the kids club to check them out. We got the 5th floor and asked a cruise personnel where the club was. At that moment Daisy Duck appeared and motioned that she would take us to the kids clubs. She grabbed my kids hands and walked us down to the Oceaneer Lab! I had pre-registered my daughter online and they had all her info so they just gave her the kid bracelet she had to wear for the duration of the cruise and we went for a tour. She was so excited to see the amazing set up they had for the kids. And the hand washing station was super cool.

Next we headed upstairs to the tween club which was also very cool. We were hungry so we went to the pool deck and ate there. The food was good and there was plenty of it. There were several people already swimming and doing the Aquaduck. We then ran to our room and changed into our swimsuits and went for the safety drill on deck 4. As soon as it was over we took the stairs back to the pool deck and went down the Aquaduck twice with almost no lines. I really liked the water coaster, especially looking down over the ocean when it first starts out!
