Summary

Josh is back, and he's here to share some of the truly fascinating information he learned about crew life while he was on his first Disney cruise aboard the Disney Dream. Josh loves meeting people and talking to them about what they do, so he inquired across a whole manner of issues from the crew he was able to interact with on his first trip aboard Disney Cruise Line. Of course, these are just anecdotes and the information here may not be 100% accurate. But a peek behind the magic is always fascinating and we really enjoyed hearing about all of Josh's conversations from his time aboard DCL. Come get a sense of what life is like for the crew of the Disney Dream.
