Northern Europe Cruise Day 1: Embarkation Day


For embarkation morning, we enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the club at the hotel and then jumped on the Disney bus to the ship. This was a fun ride as we saw some of the other places we had visited on our previous trip to Copenhagen.

Check-in was pretty easy and they were able to start boarding early so we walked right on-board after checking in (we got group 2, so we were early in the boarding process).

We chose to go to Carioca's - one of the main restaurants - for a nice proper lunch instead of the buffet to kick off our vacation and it was a great choice. I don't love the buffets and I do enjoy the sit down meals.  Everyone was all smiles to get the cruise started!




Our first character sighting was Cinderella with lots of hugs to go around and then we stopped by the room to get a little organized before heading out to play and head to the pools. C enjoyed the toddler splash area while S swam and went down the slide.


Fun fact- we stayed in room 7596 on the Magic this cruise- on our last cruise we stayed in room 7596 on the Wonder- they are both the smaller Disney ships so felt similar and familiar and we knew we liked the location.

Our first dinner was also at Carioca's and was quite yummy. We met our server for the week - Mirka- who we absolutely loved.


After dinner, we had some more character visits with Minnie, Pluto, and Goofy and then S went back to the kids club. The girls were delighted to find bunk beds set up for them upon going back to the room.
