This is great. I just I live to hear read, talk about fishing and hunting and do all he loves it all. Yeah, I know All right guys, you. We want to hear from you, the youngest kids, about what you guys think about the Disney cruise. Okay, it's important to know the other kids out here listening to this podcast. They need to know what do eight year olds think about the Disney cruise?
Speaker 1:
2:48
Okay, so, teddy, what cruise did you go on and when did you go on it?
Speaker 3:
2:52
The dream and I went in 2020.
Speaker 1:
2:57
Right before COVID. Yes, and tell me, tell me, teddy, what, what, what was your favorite part about your room? How many beds did you have? Because you have six people in your family, right, four beds. Can you tell me what the bed setup was like?
Speaker 3:
3:14
It was like, did you?
Speaker 1:
3:15
have one big bed or two big beds.
Speaker 3:
3:18
I don't remember.
Speaker 2:
3:20
I think that for your family, because you had a lot of people in your family come Teddy right, you had like aunts and uncles and grandparents, cousins, so I think that some of the kids in your family got to actually go and stay with a grandparent in their room. Do you remember that?
Speaker 1:
3:36
Yes, did you get to sleep on a fold out bed?
Speaker 2:
3:39
You definitely slept on a bed. That would be very important to your mom. Yeah, yeah, yes. Yes of course.
Speaker 1:
3:47
Okay, next up in the lineup we've got Chambers. Chambers, tell us, how many Disney cruises have you been on?
Speaker 3:
3:52
Two.
Speaker 1:
3:54
And what cruise ships did you go on?
Speaker 3:
3:57
The Disney Dream. I went on first like I don't know how many years ago, but it was kind of a while ago, like four years ago, four, and I recently went on one like two weeks ago.
Speaker 2:
4:16
Two days ago.
Speaker 3:
4:17
Two days ago. Yeah, feels like two weeks Time after time, and that was a Disney wish.
Speaker 1:
4:25
So good, Okay, tell me what the tell me about your room in 2000 and on the dream versus the wish.
Speaker 3:
4:32
I honestly don't remember the dream like how.
Speaker 2:
4:36
It was a dream. It was similar. We were just a dream. We had. What movie is that from? What is that? Pitch Perfect, oh gosh. Well, chambers, you slept in our room along with your sister, sydney, but Westline, she slept with Gigi and G Daddy in their room, and then another cousin slept in there too, so the two older, so the older cousins, they all switched off sleeping and getting to be with the grandparents. They got to have summer party and the Raleigh cousins, and so we had four person room too.
Speaker 1:
5:12
Okay, so I really like how they stacked. They stacked the rooms which worked, because they had multiple rooms and multiple children and different numbers in each room. So that's cool. But so what did you do this cruise that you just got off two days ago? How did we sleep?
Speaker 3:
5:30
The kids all had their own bed, but as usual mom and dad share a bed, so it was pretty much the normal setup.
Speaker 1:
5:42
Did you sleep on the bed that came out of the ceiling, the bed that came off of the wall or the bed that was the sofa?
Speaker 3:
5:49
So Westline stayed on the bed for all three nights that came down from the wall, and then Sydney. So the first night Sydney slept on the top bunk bed and then I slept on the bottom bunk. The next night we switched, and then that last night we switched again. I love that.
Speaker 1:

Duck and tell us, do you remember anything about the Aqua Duck?
Speaker 1:
11:29
I did not go on it. Did you not go on it because you didn't want to? Or did you not go on it because you were not tall enough?
Speaker 3:
11:35
Because I just was too scared Same.
Speaker 1:
11:39
So you had a fear of the Aqua Duck, like I did Tower of Terror I didn't want to go on.
Speaker 3:
11:43
It so bad.
Speaker 2:
11:44
Yeah, now you're older. Wiser Vacation, Tony Yep. Let's say that Teddy, you didn't get to do the Aqua Duck. Do you have siblings, though? That did the Aqua Duck.

11:59
That's what made me like I said, it was like really fun. So that's what made me like really want to go on it now.
Speaker 2:
12:06
Yeah, you definitely need the opportunity to go on the Aqua Duck or the Aqua Mouse, really selling this?
Speaker 1:
12:12
We are Okay. Chambers, tell me something. What was your favorite thing about the ocean ear club?
Speaker 3:
12:19
Probably that there was a stone goes area and you got to flip like a bunch of switches. And then there were, like these tablets that, like you just scan your magic band somewhere and then, like that, you click something and then, like, you have to scan a code, like really quick.
Speaker 1:
12:40
Did you see any Star Wars characters?
Speaker 3:
12:43
Yes, I got to like go somewhere. They said go to the Star Wars area if you want to see Chewy in Gray.

Main six oh, did you just say the main six? The main six, like it's a band.
Speaker 2:
13:55
How was that? Did you like meeting them on the Disney cruise? How was it different? Was it different at all from meeting them like at Magic Kingdom or, you know, meeting them on the cruise.
Speaker 3:
14:07
It's just weird seeing them in a different place, because I was more used to Disney at the time.
Speaker 2:
14:12
That is true, you are so great, teddy, I know. Did they have like different kind of costumes when they were on the cruise?
Speaker 3:
14:21

Speaker 3:
15:00
Oh, you go down the slide or you could take the stairs. Wait and washing your hands. Washing your hands is the best thing, but the toilet is too small.
Speaker 2:
15:12
Toilets are small little people, but the hand washing stations were kind of cool.
