Just got off the Disney Wonder✨ Here’s what I wish I knew BEFORE sailing...

Fresh off the Disney Wonder from Melbourne! It was pure magic, but oh boy, I had some ‘I wish I knew’ moments 🤦♀️ My Top Regrets (& Your Tips!): Door Decor: I regret not decorating our stateroom door! 🚪 It’s a fun tradition, and I heard well-decorated doors sometimes get magical surprises from the crew. Early Port Arrival: Book an early port arrival time! Getting on the ship just one hour earlier means one more hour of Disney joy. App is a MUST: Download the Disney Cruise Line app ASAP! You NEED it to book popular free activities like the Royal Gathering with characters. We did a fabulous 5-night sailing from Melbourne with a stop in Hobart and two magical days at sea. Even with my regrets, the experience was incredible – honestly, it surpasses the parks! 🏰 #disneycruise #disneywonder #cruisetips #disneymagic #melbournecruise #travelregrets #planahead #disneyonsea

State Library Victoria

Here’s a quick guide for history buffs heading to Melbourne 📚👀 If you really want to get under the skin of the city’s storied past, make time for the iconic State Library Victoria! This place isn’t just a library, it’s a living museum packed with fascinating Melbourne history. The building itself is jaw-dropping — think sky-high bookshelves and a stunning central domed skylight (spot the locals and students lost in their books). Must-See: State Library Victoria Address: 328 Swanston St, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia Opening hours: 10:00–18:00 every day — so easy to fit into any itinerary. Pro tip from my own visit: For a real sense of Melbourne’s past, head to the Dome Reading Room and explore the free exhibitions dotted throughout the building. It’s a great rainy day spot, with tons of cozy reading nooks. If you love architecture, keep your camera ready! Getting Around: The library sits right in the heart of the CBD — just hop off at Melbourne Central train station, it’s a breezy 2-minute walk. Food: Snacks aren’t allowed inside, but there’s a bunch of great cafés on nearby Swanston Street for a post-library caffeine fix. Weather: Melbourne can be unpredictable even in summer. Pack a light jacket just in case. Use trip.com to snag deals on hotels or local experiences if you want that perfect bookish weekend. #MelbourneMoments #StateLibraryVictoria #BookLovers #TravelTips #tripdotcom
