Disney Fantasy Cruise Ship – Fantastic Family Fun

My family sailed on the inaugural Eastern Caribbean sailing of the new Disney Fantasy cruise ship on April 21.12, and we had an awesome time. We sailed to the ports of call of St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Disney’s private island of Castaway Cay in the Bahamas; and enjoyed the sunshine and destinations, but the cruise ship offered a lot of entertainment for the sea days. Have a look what’s offered:   watch?feature=player_embedded&v=E-nEn5npfa0 httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=E-nEn5npfa0   There are kid clubs with even GPS bracelets (and wave phones to text parents, since cell phones don’t work onboard)       There are tween and teen clubs; and plenty of adult only areas too.  Karaoke, bingo, and cooking classes; plus characters too. Did I mention the Aqua Duck? What are you waiting for?

Disney Fantasy Cruise Ship – AquaLab

You may have heard about the AquaDuck water roller coaster onboard the new Disney Dream and Fantasy cruise ships (which, believe me, is a blast), but after you ride it 27 times or so (which my kids did), you might want to play in the water park area for kids of all ages. We cruised the new Disney Fantasy last week for the inaugural Eastern Caribbean sailing, and had a great time. One thing that surprised me was the height restriction on the AquaDuck. You have to be 42″ to ride, and have to ride with an adult if you’re not 52″ yet…. (see http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/disney-a-mom-and-the-mouse/2011/02/disney-cruise-line-lowers-height-requirement-for-disney-dreams-aquaduck/) that caught a couple of fellow cruisers by surprise. (My youngest met the height requirement.) But there is a younger kids’ slide onboard, as well as a terrific water play area.  Whn my DD6 saw it, she had to run through it — fully clothed! …
