Family travel, Disney, cruises and the occasional detour, since 2004
Our runDisney Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend turned out to be as much about food as running: a vegetarian-friendly dinner at Boma, a 6 AM 5K through EPCOT, and a slow, happy EPCOT day ending at Biergarten.
Day 4 of our Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Disney Destiny took us up a 25-minute chairlift to the top of Sentry Hill in St. Maarten, then back to the ship for Pirate Night and fireworks at sea.
The Frightfully Fun Parade is gone this year. We spent a full night at Oogie Boogie Bash 2026 to see what replaced it, and whether the party still feels worth the ticket.
We walked onto the Disney Wish while the crew was still building Boo, the ship's enchanted pumpkin tree, and came back that night to watch it light up. Here is our full Halloween on the High Seas embarkation day.
On June 30, 2026, the Disney Destiny made its maiden call at San Juan, and we were on board. We spent the day paddling a turtle lagoon, then watched El Morro slide by on the way out.
No ports, no alarms, just one long day on the Disney Destiny. We filled ours with Palo brunch, a stop at the Rainforest Room, formal night and dinner at Worlds of Marvel.
