Re-imagined Pool Space on the Disney Magic A couple weeks ago, I had the opportunity to sail on a two night cruise aboard the re-imagined Disney magic. I got to see so many great new re-vamped spaces while onboard, but I wanted to focus on just the pool spaces for this post. The highlight of the pool deck would have to be the new Aqua Dunk waterslide. This slide is like no other Disney Cruise Line slide, and is for the thrill seekers.

My family and I took our annual fall Disney World trip October 17-19, 2013. This would be our first time using the new Magic Bands and using the Disability Access Service (DAS) card. My daughter is autistic and is unable to wait in lines. In our past Disney trips we always used the GAC and it worked wonderfully for my daughter. Disney’s new DAS went into effect October 9, 2013.
