On the first few days this February I went on a Disney Cruise!! I know, woo-hoo! But I never blogged about it (_._)
So here is the long-overdue post.
I know what you're thinking, "So you went to Japan and THEN took a Disney Cruise?"
Yes O_O; I can't believe it either. I am so grateful for everything in my life.
Specially having the opportunity to see the brand new ship in the fleet - the
Disney Dream!
Is there anything more beautiful than this? Rhetorical question because NO THERE IS NOT.
Disney Cruises are unlike any other cruise. They have true magic.
And my, is this ship gorgeous!
The whole ship is an opulent masterpiece. I cannot think any way to describe it. It's just beautiful and so perfect. It is bigger than the older ones in the fleet and has a waterslide that actually leaves the ship for a few meters and then comes back O_o; -
The Aquaduck.
So for a few seconds you can see the ocean below you from the transparent tube.
I can see how this would be frightening if you're scared of the sea though, hahaha. But then again if you are, what are you doing aboard a cruise!?
The main "lobby" is also CRAZY. Just look at the glass chandelier for God's sake.
I am fangirling about this ship's amazing Art Deco structure. Every detail is its place.
Detail of a random mural.

As soon as we got in we had absolutely nothing to do because most of the ship's facilities opened at dusk after the sail-away party, so we basically ran around until we found the children's and pre-teen's club - the
Oceaneer Club & Lab. In the past ships they were separate places but now they are connected to each other, which is great because my little sisters could be together.
What nobody ever told us was how cool this place is. I would have stayed but I don't think the 12-year-olds would like having a 20-year-old play with them :( a shame.
But it was pretty much empty and open for visits at the time so VISIT WE DID!
The whole moment was hilarious because my mom, my boyfriend, my dad and I all started spazzing over how awesome this place was. We were more excited than my little sisters, hahaha. The
Oceaneer's Club (for children ages 3 to 12) had a rendition of
Andy's Room from Toy Story, and big versions of some of the toys. I was so happy, couldn't believe it!! It was like being inside the movie.
And there was also this... the
Monsters Academy, where you could laugh into the pressurized laugh-cans and go through the Monsters Inc. factory. It is amazing what the Imagineers can do!!
There was also a Detective's Academy all around the ship which involved finding certain paintings throughout the decks to solve a mystery. And the paintings MOVE. THEY MOVE. I know it doesn't sound so amazing but you really wouldn't guess that a painting moves because the animation and screen themselves look so veridic, you could swear you see the brush strokes on them. And all the sudden they start moving. WTF.
Night entertainment and shows above the Disney Cruise Line are unlike any other. They even have a Fireworks show at sea, which no other cruise line has!!
The room-keeping staff are so kind, polite and nice! They surprise you each day with an imaginative towel design and chocolates. They also clean your room like three times a day if you let them O_o
Hidden Mickeys all over the ship :)
Aaaand here's me again, posing around the ship's outer decks.
I hope you enjoyed my report! It's not over yet, I still have to talk about food and excursions. So please stay tuned! (^^)
