Christmas is a wonderful time to take a cruise. While it is too late for 2009 we can give you many options for Christmas 2010 and some for Christmas 2011. Early December is also a good time to cruise – many of the ships are still decorated for the Holidays and rates are less when compared to Christmas week.
Here’s a video from Disney with a Rockin version of “Heigh-Ho” from Los Lobos performed in front of the Germany Pavillion at Epcot. Heigh Ho never sounded so good!
Here’s a fun video from Disney showing the holiday decorations at Disneyland over the years. Merry Christmas to you all!
Here’s a Disney video with some holiday lighting tips – from an expert involved in the Osborne Lights display at the Disney Studios. The Osborne light display is one of our favorite areas to visit in Disney World during the holiday season. The paper towel tube tip for holding light strings (at the end of this video) is a good one!
Watch the video below from Disney on the history of steam trains at the Disney parks. Interesting that Walt had a steam train setup around his house in the late 40’s, and that was a hint of things to come at Disneyland. We always try to ride the train at least once in our visits to the Magic Kingdom – how about you?
Here’s a video from Disney about a typical day at Epcot. Unlike the Magic Kingdom video they had a few weeks ago this one has fireworks at the end!
“The Bering Sea Crab Fisherman’s Tour in Ketchikan was by far our favorite Alaska cruise excursion and we will go back time and time again to experience it. We were able to see whales, seals, eagles, red king crab, snow crab and rock crab. All the crab was caught in sovereign waters and therefore had to go back in, but they were brought on board for people to see up close.”
This week we posted on our main www.familytravelgurus.com website and facebook page a slide show of our Oasis of the Seas cruise. We were on a special travel agent cruise; Royal Caribbean invited us and we were excited to be one of the first to experience this wonderful ship! (the largest cruise ship in the World). We have some readers who only see our blog so we are including a copy of the video below:
Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s a video of the National Thanksgiving turkey, “Courage”, in a parade at Disneyland today:
The biggest and best yet! We were in the first group of travel agents to sail on Royal Caribbean’s huge new ship, the Oasis of the Seas, for a special 2 night travel agent cruise November 20-21, 2009. We were very impressed with the Oasis and give a report of our impressions below.
