Disney Dream

We ended our Florida trip with a ride on Disney Cruise Line's newest boat, the Disney Dream. The massive ship is simply incredible, hosting multiple theaters, restaurants, pools, clubs, and more.

Driving up to Port Canaveral with the ship in sight

The 70,000 square foot terminal all guests pass through before boarding the ship.

The building includes a massive model of the Disney Magic, the cruise line's original ship.

Once on board, each inside stateroom includes a "virtual porthole" with a real time look at what's outside the ship.

The ship's lobby stretches upwards three levels and is quite elaborate.

The lobby also features a gigantic chandelier

Up on the ship's top two decks, guests prepared for the sail away party.

A similar view at night, with the pool covered over for additional space.

As seen in the last two pictures, the Aqua Duck is a new feature on the Disney Dream (and Disney Fantasy)

The transparent slide swings over the ship's side, but that's the most thrilling it gets - the remainder of the ride is spent slowly cruising through long stretches of tube.

Other forms of entertainment on the ship include clubs/areas for all age groups, include teenagers.

There is also a putt-putt course themed to Goofy.

The Walt Disney Theatre plays host to multiple broadway-style shows.

Outside the ship, there's Disney's own private island, Castaway Cay. Even more to do there.

My time on the Disney Dream was nothing short of amazing and I would gladly return for a second trip. It also signified the end of our time in Florida, so the next few updates will all be from the Midwest.
