Juneau, Alaska: Disney Cruise Line Port Review by Cheryl Pendry on 05-17-2012

Photo illustrating Juneau - whale watching
As soon as I knew that we’d be cruising Alaska on the Disney Wonder, there was one shore excursion that I knew we had to take.

That was whale watching, as my husband loves whales, and this was his birthday cruise.

So much was new, while other things were reassuringly the same, but at the same time ...

Disney's Coronado Springs Resort: A Disney Resort Hotel Review by Mary Augustine on 04-26-2012
We recently spent four days at a Walt Disney World resort, and didn't enter the theme parks.

Taking It Easy at Walt Disney World: Downtime at Disney by Cheryl Pendry on 04-20-2012
It's all too easy to find yourself rushing from one attraction to the next whenever you're in a Disney park, frantically trying to see, and do it all in the time that you've got there. It's very hard sometimes to wind down, and relax, which is, ...

Even my husband was hesitant to use it, but after the first day on our trip, we couldn't imagine our entire vacation without them! Our Key Cards, receipts, and money were kept save and with us at all time. Even with the rain, it kept everything dry. A must!' -- SandiF from San Jose, CA

       TIP
Daily Disney Gifts
"Souvenirs are pricey at Disney resorts and parks, so we skip the shops by making purchases before we travel. Like Santa visits while we sleep, leaving gifts under our Christmas tree, Mickey visits our resort room to leave surprises for our kids every few nights. When the kids want to visit gift shops, we remind them that Mickey will probably visit and leave a surprise. Mickey's surprises range from a new autograph book or glow sticks for our evenings at the parks to Disney t-shirts, a Mickey plush, etc. Whatever the kids might be hoping for. It's like a little bit of Christmas every time we travel to Walt Disney World."
