Disney Alaska Cruise Excursions

Alaska is one of those places that once you visit, it changes you. When it comes to picking the right Disney Alaska Cruise excursions it can be a tough decision. After all there are a lot of excursions to pick from. Since we were traveling with a toddler and a teenager on our Alaska Cruise, it was important that we had excursions that the entire family could enjoy together. We set out on adventure, saw things I only saw in magazine and experienced things I never thought possible. If I had the chance to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat.

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Onboard the Disney Wonder

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Onboard the Disney WonderOne of the highlights of our Disney Alaska Cruise was finally being able to take my daughter to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. On our previous trips, she either was old enough (kids need to be 3 years old) or we just didn’t have the time (at the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration earlier this ear). Since she was finally old enough and we had plenty of time on our 7-day cruise, I knew I had to make it happen. I was surprised by how many people told me that they didn’t even know the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique was available on the Disney Wonder!  Not only is the boutique located on the Disney Wonder but it’s available on all four of the Disney Cruise ships! If you’re planning a Disney Cruise, here’s what you need to know about booking your little princess or prince an appointment at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique onboard the Disney Wonder or any of the other ships.

  • Have you ever planted a garden in your yard? (Ad) I have several container gardens around my deck that the kids helped me plant. We filled them with plenty of herbs and vegetables. I love that they’re small and easy for me to manage. I just love having fresh veggies to make my own homemade, organic salsa all summer long. What I don’t like is when the bugs start attacking my garden. So I started using @maggiesfarmproducts 3-in-1 Garden Spray to keep the bugs at bay. I love this line of green bug sprays because not only are they safe to use around my kids and the cats, but they’re great for the environment too. They don’t leave any harmful residues on the ground and they WORK! You can find Maggie’s Farm in the lawn/garden section at Walmart!
