Kate’s European Adventure, Part 2: Norway Aboard the Disney Dream (Ep 117, part 2)

Welcome back as we continue Kate’s European adventure! This time we’re heading aboard the Disney Dream for a seven-night Norwegian cruise.In Part 2, we pick up with Kate and her family as they sail from Southampton with stops in Amsterdam, Maloy, Alesund, and Bergen. We talk through Kate's experiences in each port from sailing into the fjords surrounded by incredible scenery to exploring tiny fishing villages, navigating the hairpin turns of Trollstigen, and spending the day wandering and shopping in Bergen.We also talk about how different a port-intensive European cruise feels from a more traditional Disney Cruise Line vacation. There was a lot less pool and lounge time and a lot more exploring, but for Kate and her family, that was exactly the point. We revisit the topic of food allergies aboard the Disney Dream, where the experience was very different from the challenges faced earlier in the trip. Kate shares how Disney Cruise Line handled her son’s meals, the extra steps the dining team took to keep him safe, and a few gluten-free surprises that made the experience even better. Gluten-free churro waffles anyone?From unexpectedly beautiful weather to breathtaking scenery and a few emotional “I can’t believe I’m actually here” moments, this was the portion of the trip that left Kate already dreaming about going back.If a beach vacation isn’t necessarily your thing, or you’ve been looking for a different way to experience Europe without managing every logistical detail yourself, this might just put a Disney Cruise Line sailing through Norway on your travel wish list.Support the showConnect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wanderlustandwishespodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wanderlustandwishespodcastFor interest in vacation planning email us at: [email protected] fill out this quote request form: https://forms.gle/ZmN8C2akheQabF7B7
