The Disney Wonder is wrapping up her final season in Australia (at least for now), but recently completed one of it's most amazing itineraries - a 10-night Magic at Sea cruise departing from Auckland and ending in Sydney, with lots of ports of call in between and a journey through Fjordland National Park. You'll want to listen to this episode as my guests, Landon and Bridget, recap their epic voyage!

In this week's episode, I'm joined by two former cast members for the Walt Disney Company. Robby and Jillian had several different roles throughout the years they spent with TWDC, and it was fun to discuss those with them. Robby had the unique priviledge of introducing Captain America to Disney Cruise Line, so we discuss that experience, as well. They also recently cruised with some extended family on the Magic from Galveston, so we had LOTS to talk about! I hope you enjoy. Happy New Year!
