The Not So Fab Four on the Disney Fantasy...Complete

[tmarie]

You have a beautiful family! I really enjoyed your trip report and pics. I do have one question.... Did your girls complain of their hair braiding hurting? I would love to have our 9 yr old's hair braided, but I'm afraid it's going to hurt. Also, where did you have it done?

Hi and thank you so much!They offer hair braiding on the ship right by the pool. The cost is $2 per braid. My daughters said it hurt a little bit but they love the end product so it was worth it. And the ladies braid SO fast - honestly they did each braid in less than a minute! They do offer to put beads in their hair as well. The beads look really pretty but when my daughter had them on our previous cruise they hurt her really bad when she slept and we ended up taking them out. With that in mind, we just did the braids this time and they lasted about 7-10 days. I think your daughter will really enjoy having them

Hi! Yes, they will absolutely do adults. I made an appointment the day before we got it done - I think we were 5 days into our cruise and got the hair braided on the 6th. My daughter purposely waited towards the end of the cruise because she wanted to show it to all of her friends when we got home. If the braiders weren't busy they would take walk ups as well. I don't think you'll have a problem getting it done. Have a great time on your cruise!!!

Hi! Thanks for following along. We are HUGE Cubs fans (Go Cubs Go) at our house and these shirts combined two of our favorite things - Disney and the Cubs! I ordered them few months ago at www.exitees.com. I just went to their website and it looks like they are still available. Happy Shopping

Thank you SO much!! I truly appreciate your kind words. I'm a little jealous that you are going on a cruise next month...LOL! Have a magical time and please have a poolside drink of the day for me!!

What an amazing vacation!! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!! We are sailing the same itinerary on the Fantasy 10 days from now. SO excited!

I love to read reports where families realized how blessed they (and we) are to be able to take these amazing family vacations together! I don't ever want to take this for granted and it's even better when I read reports of others who feel the same way.

I hope all is well and you're looking forward to your next Disney cruise! Have you booked anything yet?

 

[tmarie]

Aww...thank you SO much!! Blessed we are! It's hard to even put into words sometimes how truly thankful I am to have these opportunities with my family. We are waiting for the summer 2018 dates to be released - hopefully they'll be released soon.

I am so happy for you - next week you'll be on the Disney Fantasy!!! You must be Super Excited!!! Enjoy every single moment and dip your toes in the sand for me!

Great report! I love your door magnets! Did you make the name tags yourself or get a template? I want to make some custom name ones for our July cruise

Hi and Thank you! Unfortunately, I am not that crafty. I purchased the magnets on Etsy. It's so fun to decorate the doors...definitely adds to the fun of cruising! I bet you're getting excited - you're going to have such a great time!!

Do they only do cornrows or will they do 2 French braids? I don't think my hair is going to like the humidity...
