Before our first family Disney cruise I did tons of
research looking for the best tips and secrets of DCL passengers. I compiled a
list here-Disney
Cruise Insider Tips and Secrets-and this post is dedicated to my favorite
one, taking items to guest services for signing!
Before we left I had several different ideas of things
for the characters to sign. I had a hard time deciding between t-shirts,
autograph bears, pillow cases, and a photo frame/mat. I ultimately chose the
photo mat and I’m SO glad I did!
Here’s my thinking: t-shirts would be too small in no
time and I really didn’t want them to wear and possibly ruin them, autograph
bears would take up too much room in our luggage, a pillow case would get dirty
because I’m sure mine would want to sleep on it and I’m afraid of it ruining
after several washes, and I never found an actual signable photo frame that I
liked-so, photo mat it was!
The photo mat was virtually flat and weightless which
made packing it a piece of cake, it’s not something that we’ll outgrow, will
wear out, or take up too much room, so for us, it was the perfect choice!
Along with the photo frame I took a Ziplock bag full of
brightly colored Sharpie markers and a little “thank
you” gift for the crew to guest services the first night on board. They
gave me a slip of paper to fill out which just asked our basic information
including cabin number so it could be returned to us the last night of our
trip.
This is what we got back! We LOVE it!
I printed out pictures of us with the different
characters and will change the photo out from time to time. It’s hands down our
favorite keepsake from our Disney cruise and will be treasured forever!
