    Tourin’ Over California – Day 1

    At the time this is being posted, I’m away on our mystery vacation (obviously by now it will be revealed where we went!) but as always I wrote a few things to go up while we’re gone – and it seems like no better time than now to start my NEXT vacation series! I am SO excited to start this newest edition for our trip to California in September! And this one in particular is very special because we actually vlogged our entire trip as well!! Obviously this was our first time making videos of an entire trip, so we’re…

    Packing for the Mystery Vacation

    At this point we’re leaving for our mystery vacation in just a few days and I am positively dying of anticipation and excitement! Chris still hasn’t told me where we’re going, or really, very much at all… but he has given me a few hints that might maybe help me narrow it down? A little? We spent our weekend packing for this trip – here’s how that went: So as you can see, I don’t know what I’m packing even. Chris is packing FOR ME. We picked out outfits based on either cold or warm weather, ultimately he’ll choose the…

    Remy Dessert Experience on the Disney Dream

    At this point in our cruising series it should be obvious that we LOVE food. It feels like all we did on this cruise was eat! But for our last day on board, we had planned the most special experience yet. We would be dining at the super fancy and high class adults-only restaurant, Remy! On day 2 we took a tour of Remy and on day 3 we had dined at its neighbor, Palo. But we saved the best for last with Remy. It’s considered the ultimate in luxury dining at sea, and our tour guide estimated that a…

    Dinner at Palo on the Disney Dream

    If you’ve read my blog for a while now, you probably know that one of my favorite parts of traveling (maybe THE favorite part) is food. We’re always looking for the best dining experiences we can find wherever we go. So it was only natural that when we set sail on the Disney Dream, we knew that dining at Palo was an absolute must-do. We ended up eating there for dinner on day 3 of our cruise and it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! While most of the dining on board is included in the cost…

    Rainforest Room on the Disney Dream

    Something we had read about and were very curious to try on the Disney Dream was the spa, specifically something called the Rainforest Room. There’s not a ton of information about it online but what we could find really piqued our interest. It turned out to be one of the best parts of the trip and a real hidden gem!! The name is kind of a misnomer – it’s not really just one “room”, but instead a section of the spa with a few different areas to relax and unwind. The way the Rainforest Room works is you purchase a…
