Fun for Families on the Disney Destiny
By Rikki
If you’re sailing on the Disney Destiny with your family, don’t worry! There are lots of great spaces where you can spend your Disney Cruise Line day.
A great place, where it’s certain that you and your kiddos will be are on the upper decks where there will be three distinctly themed districts. These were first introduced aboard the Disney Wish and will offer fun water features, quick and casual dining options, and plenty of space to relax and soak up the sun.
In a district themed to Mickey and friends, families will discover seven pools that can be found among tiered decks, an abundance of lounge chairs, and a thrilling water attraction, AquaMouse. There will also be an imaginative take on fast-casual fare with a festive character twist.
Speaking of the AquaMouse, the Disney Destiny will debut a new storyline filled with Disney Villains called “Sing a Silly Song.” The new show will be featured around the Mickey Mouse animated shorts as Mickey and Minnie lead guests on a seemingly ominous trek to the peak of Villain Mountain. When faced with some of the most fearsome villains, the duo will employ a silly song — and a bit of pixie dust — to transform each chilling encounter into a wacky surprise.
Also, little cruisers will find an area for them themed around “Toy Story” designed especially for families with toddlers and young children. The space will include a splash zone, wading pool, family waterslide and smoothie bar.
