Summary

We're chatting with Courtney, all the way from the Great White North, about her family's first experience with Disney Cruise Line aboard the Disney Dream. Courtney shares how she decided to book a DCL cruise, and how she got her reluctant husband onboard with the idea. This cruise was also a surprise for their two kids, so we couldn't wait to hear what the whole family thought about the experience. From the ship, to the shows, the ports, Castaway Cay, and, of course, the food - we're covering it all!!
