Join us in this Disney Cruise Line Vlog as we say goodbye to Walt Disney World's Old Key West resort and board the Disney Fantasy for our 7 night Western Caribbean cruise. We travel to Port Canaveral using Disney's Ground Transportation service, have lunch at Cabanas, explore the ship and dine at Enchanted Garden.

Our day starts bright and early at Walt Disney World's Old Key West resort as Bell Services collect our cases at 7 a.m. on the dot as part of Disney's Ground Transportation service to Port Canaveral.
We stroll up to Hospitality House and share a delicious breakfast of Mickey Waffles overlooking the pool and DVC Ferry dock, before boarding the bus.
We get our first look at the Disney Fantasy as we arrive at the Disney Cruise Line terminal and she looks glorious in the sunshine! Boarding is quick and straightforward, and we head to Cabanas to grab some lunch on the outside deck area.
It's soon time for us to be able to access our stateroom so we go and check it out for a little room tour before exploring the ship some more.
We take a look around the area where most of the lounges are located such as Ooh La La, The Tube and O'Gills Pub as well as the exterior of Deck 4 which also doubles up as running track.
Next we take a mini tour of the Senses Spa and enjoy the soft-serve ice creams from "Eye Scream" as we discover the Quiet Cove and Satellite Falls adult decks. The quick serve options at the Cars-themed Flo's V8 Cafe all look and sound delicious including pizzas, burgers, sandwiches and wraps.
Soon it's time for the muster drill which takes longer than expected - leaving us with very little time to navigate the crowds to ensure a good view for the the Sail Away Party. Nevertheless, it's still an exhilarating and emotional moment when the ship's horn signals in true Disney style that we have set sail!
We head back to the stateroom to watch as we leave the port and then get freshened up for dinner. Now that the shops are open we have a look around Mickey's Mainsail and Sea Treasures before making our way to Enchanted Garden.
We agree that the atmosphere and theme-ing is really pretty and the way the sky changes from day to night is magical.
Back in the stateroom we are greeted by our first towel animal, courtesy of our stateroom host, Bart.

We are Keith, Tracey, Luke, and Daisy. We have been going on family vacations to Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida for almost 19 years. We have stayed on International Drive, Universal Resorts, and several Walt Disney World Resorts and became Disney Vacation Club members in 2022. Inspired by seeing other people sharing their adventures on YouTube, we decided to document our experiences too. When not in Florida we run an accommodation business and support Luke’s motor racing adventures in the BRSCC Mazda MX-5 Championship. We have recently started filming on a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and edit using Adobe Premier Pro. Older vlogs were filmed on a Canon G7X Mark II compact camera and edited in i-Movie.
