Disney Cruise Sea Days Don't Look Like This (But Ours Did)
Everybody asks what a sea day looks like on a Disney Cruise with kids. The honest answer is: nothing like you planned. This is our rainy sea day on the Disney Magic - a medical emergency diversion to Cozumel, a toddler who freaked out about Stitch, a kid who fell asleep during Tangled, and somehow one of the best days of the whole trip. No agenda. No perfect moments. Just what it actually looks like.
