😃 When was the last time you felt like a kid again? 🙃 Like, really let go and just played? 💦🛝💦 A Disney Cruise is the perfect place to rediscover that joy, and nothing captures it quite like zipping down a waterslide at sea! All Disney cruise ships have them and they’re phenomenally fun! Not all slides are meant for adults, but many are, like:

💦 AquaDuck (Disney Dream & Fantasy) – Twist, turn, and sail over the ocean in this thrilling tube ride.

💦 AquaDunk (Disney Magic)- Fast-paced body slide not meant for the weak at heart!

💦 AquaMouse (Disney Wish & Treasure) – Disney storytelling and a waterslide? It’s a true ATTRACTION!

💦 Twist ‘n’ Spout (Disney Magic & Wonder) – Classic, fun, and perfect for discovering your inner child!
Sure, lounging in a deck chair is great, but there’s magic in PLAY—and who knew that better than Walt Disney?
I am a waterslide girl! I go on them every chance I get and yes, I let out a whoop! or two or three!! It's great fun!
🚢🎯 When you really want to play the Disney way, but need a little break from the theme park atmosphere, I’m telling you a Disney Cruise is the perfect blend of magic, relaxation, fun and sun! Now tell me... will we find you going down a waterslide or NO WAY? 😂

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road? A: Duh, to get to the theme park! 🤣🤣🤣 While may never know the REAL answer to that age old question, Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort both have several attractions that will make you LAUGH. Here are some fan faves:

🔋 Monsters Inc Laugh Floor (Magic Kingdom): Imagine a stand up comedy show but in the monster world. You can even submit jokes that may make the show.

❄️ For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration (Hollywood Studios): The Royal Historians of Arendelle are the real stars of this show (try and prove me wrong), but you’ll also sing along with Anna, Elsa, and Olaf!

🦏 Jungle Cruise (Magic Kingdom): If you love corny Dad jokes, this is YOUR ride!

🤡 The Simpsons Ride (Universal Studios): This never-aging family saves the day from Sideshow Bob in a hilarious way. You’ll feel like an unofficial resident of Springfield by the time you are done.

🏎️ Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon (Universal Studios): It’s silly, yes, but you’ll feel like you stepped right into The Tonight Show studio while waiting in line, and then you’ll go all over the city, under the city, into space, and more.

I know it's not on this list, but I completely go into hysterics on Popeye and Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges! You get soaked, it's so funny!! 😂

👉 Time to reveal your sense of humor. Name an attraction that made you crack up! 🤣🤣🤣

🛑 “But the Universal parks are all 3-D attractions, right?!” This is one of the most common questions/concerns I hear about a trip to Universal Orlando Resort. ✅ Yes, there are many REALLY FUN 3-D rides or hybrid 3-D rides like Escape from Gringotts, The Simpsons Ride, Transformers, The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man, and more-heaven if you love 3-D. 😎 BUT there are also PLENTY of attractions for those who may get motion sickness or just don’t love 3-D. I’ll name a few:

🦄 Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure: MAYBE the best ride in Orlando. It’s thrilling, feels like being in a Harry Potter movie, and features a couple of amazing animatronics.

🏍️ The Entertainment: Shows like The Bourne Stuntacular and the Horror Make-Up Show to entertainers like Celestina Warback and the Blues Brothers will make you forget all about the rides.

🎉 Special Events: During special seasons, there are ticketed events like Halloween Horror Nights, but also lots of free offerings during Mardi Gras. The Christmas season is where the Wizarding World shows off, the Grinch is in rare form, and actual Macy’s floats are featured in the parade.
Now, I DO get motion sickness, pretty bad too, but I've figured out that I can do some of the 3D rides and keep my lunch by spacing them with plenty of shows and street atmosphere.
🫵 How do you feel about 3-D? 👍👎What else can you add to this list of the best NON-3-D experiences at Universal?

🍀✨🍀✨They say luck is in the air on St. Patrick’s Day, but at Disney Parks and Resorts, that extra bit of magic is what we call pixie dust and it can happen any day! 🤯 Sometimes, it’s a BIG deal—like a resort room upgrade or being chosen for Family of the Day. Other times, it’s a smaller but no less unforgettable moment, like:

A birthday cupcake from a kind Cast Member

A Mickey Ice Cream Bar just because

An impromptu Happy Birthday serenade from a Cast Member that sees your celebration button

A towel animal waiting in your resort room

A wave from Tinker Bell during a parade

✨🤩✨ Pixie Dust isn’t guaranteed and can come when you least expect it, but that’s what makes it so magical. We were once given "faspasses" to any attraction while we were on line for Tree of Life, there were six of us, so that was amazing.

➡️ OK, it’s your turn! Tell me about a time you were Pixie Dusted on a Disney vacation—or if you haven’t yet, what’s your dream sprinkle of Disney luck? 🍀✨🍀
