Ahoy, Jillian!
It's SO exciting to hEAR your crew will be setting sail for a Bahamian adventure with Mickey and the gang in September. My princess was four on our first voyage with Disney, and it was extra special being able to experience ALL the magic through her eyes. I can still picture her in the Sleeping Beauty gown and gold tiara she wore so elegantly greeting the Disney Princesses in the Lobby Atrium for the first time. I know your family will make many magical memories when it's your turn on the Disney Dream!
Disney Cruise Line offers fabulous merchandise onboard, but my all-time favorite souvenirs are the
pictures! I enjoy looking back to see how much my Mousekeeteers have grown and reliving our most magical moments onboard. I take full advantage of all the photo opportunities offered and love that I can be in the pictures too! The quality is way better than what I can capture with my iPhone, and it is so nice not to lug around my big camera. I typically take advantage of the pre-purchase option since there is an opportunity for some savings. I've cruised from 3-nights to 8-nights and found that there are plenty of photo options available no matter the cruise length. You'll find a cruise photographer in the terminal for character greetings, in the Lobby Atrium every night, at most Character Appearances, in the dining rooms and on Castaway Cay.
Jillian, currently, the "All Digital Photos and Prints Package" and the "All Digital Photos Package" offer 15 percent off if you purchase it before you set sail. There is also a $10.00 savings on a pre-purchase of a photo book that holds up to 34 of your cruise photos. You can pre-order your package or book online at www.mycruisephotos.com up to 24 hours before 12:00 a.m. on your first day of sailing.
Please let us know if you have any other questions! We are always happy to help!
