I could try to tell you all about the Disney Mommy Bloggers Cruise, but I don't know if I can do it justice. Thankfully, I took many videos of my experiences and I will be posting them here for you to laugh at and learn from. You'll be able to see right away that I have trouble gauging where my face is in the viewfinder. There are more than a few Blair Witch Project shots. Just ignore the extreme close-ups and focus on the information I'm sharing, OK?
In this video I take you on a tour of my stateroom. The staterooms, by the way, are a very nice size. They are all the same size, but some have a balcony (like mine), some have a porthole, and some just have a wall with no window. The pricing is scaled according to those ammenities, so you can decide how important a porthole or balcony is for your family.
I want to thank Maria Bailey of MomSelect and Jonathan, Laura, and Leanne from Disney for inviting me to participate in this opportunity. It was truly a magical experience. Thank you to Jonathan for being such a gentleman and putting up with our antics. Thank you to Laura for your energy and for bailing us out of the karaoke pit (video to come). Thank you to Maria for choosing such a perfect group of women that clicked immediately. Leanne, I thank you for helping put this all together. I wish I could have had more time to talk with you! I guess you'll just have to invite me back.
I also want to give a quick shout-out to Posh Mama. They gave me a Flip camera last September so I could interview various bloggers on camera. Without the Flip, I wouldn't have been able to vlog so much of the Disney trip! Thanks Posh Mama!

I’m part of the WDW Moms Panel and found you through Kim. How exciting you got chosen for the cruise, Laura and Leanne are just great aren’t they and I love your video.
Can’t wait to hear all about it

That’s so cool! Wow. I’m impressed easily because aside from your hair lookin so cute, i was all aga ga over the bathroom LOL.
Poor Melanie. I can just visualize you wandering the ship with your little safety vest on.
I’ll be here for part two tomorrow.
You look so pretty! Cracked me up that you flunked the safety drill.
I’m so glad you had a great time! I knew you would. Leanne and Maria (and Laura and Sara etc. etc.) are so nice and thoughtful.
