Disney Magic Overview

Last week we gave you a few, okay a lot, of tips for making the most out of your Disney Cruise Line vacation! This week we have an overview of the Disney Magic, which is the ship that we sailed on for our last cruise. We did the same thing after our first cruise on the Wonder. Sadly, after our next cruise you won’t be getting a completely new deck plan from us. This is because we won’t be sailing on a new ship… We are happy to say that we’ll be sailing on the Wonder again shortly after it comes out of dry dock! And we’ll have lots of new information to share with you.

For now, we have the “deck plan” for the Disney Magic with a brief explanation for locations aboard the ship. Enjoy!
