Setting your OOO before a cruise is a sacred ritual. Choose wisely. 😌

Drop a 🛳️ if you've ever paid for ship Wi-Fi just to not check your email.

In a first-of-its-kind event at sea, @disneycruiseline is dropping clues about #DisneyBelieve bars, lounges and more this week during a five-day voyage on Disney Wish -- and we're onboard to follow the clues and report back ✨

Our first clue from Day 1 brought us to Joyful Sweets, where we received a cup of chocolate gelato with a crunchy orange coating. While details have yet to be revealed, we've received confirmation that it will be served somewhere on Disney Believe.

Once the day's hunt was over, we compared notes with our fellow scavenger hunters to gather as much intel as we could -- from an Evil Queen drink 🍎 (possible theme for The Bayou?!), to a smokey shell cocktail 🧜‍♀️ (a nod to a potential Nightingale's theme??), we're working hard to put all of the clues together before the big reveal on Wednesday.

For the full list of clues revealed so far & our best guesses to what they could mean (plus ongoing clue reveals!), tap the link in bio 🔗
