January Trip Report & Website!!!

A very fun website that, I hope, brings to life our recent January 5th seven day cruise on the Disney Magic!

Lots of pictures, tips and even a "Find The Mouse" game.

Feel free to ask questions and give comments. Hopefully, it is
helpful and fun.

All I can say is WOW!!! I LOVE your trip report. I know that ya'll had a MAGICal time. I haven't got hubby talked into a cruise yet, but DD age 7.5 and I want to go SO bad!

[momofofo]

Wow ! What a wonderful vacation.

I can't wait to go with my family in March !

Thanks for the report !

[iluvorlando]

What a great trip report! I can't wait until our cruise in March!

[plutospup]

Now that is a trip report! Six weeks from now we'll be on the Magic:D

[Eric, Julie and Hailey]

You put my site to shame! Nice job.

[Mickey4Me]

FANTASTIC site!! What cute kids (OK, mom and dad too). I have sent the link to DH and DD and made it required reading/viewing before our June trip. Thanks so much!

[Mumph39]

Well, I didn't think I could get any more psyched for my trip. We are booked on the Feb. 16 Magic cruise. Your trip report is sooo impressive! Fantastic job. Will take your advice and prebook a rental car for St. Thomas.:cool: :sunny:

[Credit Man]

What a wonderful report. Thanks for posting the link.

[Lily1000]

Thank you soooo much for sharing your site!

It is absolutely out of this world...and yes, I did get misty-eyed when I heard the horn!

You have a beautiful family. My favorite picture had to be of the before/after of your dessert...I laughed out loud!:D

[tksbaskets]

LOVED! the report. I'm going to have my DH read it as well. I laughed out loud at your narration.

Makes me wish I was going on a 7 day...not to say 4 days at WDW followed by a 4 day Wonder cruise is chopped liver. Just makes me look forward to my second Disney cruise!


Hey Eric, Julie, and Haley - I loved your site too!!

For those of us living vicariously through your trips, a few typed lines is all it takes to make us happy :-)

Keep the trip reports coming.

[hsteacher]

Excellent site -- my kids loved it and so did I. Thanks for all the hard work to let us relive our past cruise and dream of our upcoming one in March.

[snowball22]

What an awesome web site!!!!!!!!! The set up, the photos and the trip report were all beautiful!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!

[Michelemouse]

Great site and report! BTW, just curious, but what kind of competition was your daughter in and how did she do?

Michele

[Loudbmw]

If they passed out awards for best trip report site ever made - you would get my vote. I felt I was back on the Magic again.

Great Job!

What an AWESOME website!! You must get so much joy out of looking at it anytime, anyplace! And think of all the joy you are bringing to those of us reliving our last Magical experience (5/26/01) and awaiting our next (6/22 Western)!!! I am so glad you all had such a great time!

[redpants]

Great site!

You take such good pictures--I was especially impressed by your shots inside the theaters during the shows.

Nice job!

Michele,

She is on a junior cheerleading squad that was competing in a big competition at the Saavis Center (home of the NHL St. Louis Blues) in St. Louis.

Their squad is fairly new and finished third against teams from all over the midwest! About 13 teams competed. Everything worked out great.

Especially.....the cruise!!!!

[eeyorefreak]

WOW!!

What an awesome trip report and web site! Thank you so much for posting. I'm glad you and your family had such a great trip. I felt like I was reliving my last cruise again!

Great web site. I enjoyed it very much. Super pic's. Great to see what you saw and took pic's of.

[red] I am incredibly impressed by your Disney Cruise page, so much so that I have been convinced to take one! What a fabulous way to "share" your cruise with others. Thanks!

[kearbey]

That's pretty neat that our website and experience help send you over the edge to take that Disney Cruise!!

It doesn't surprise me. We're constantly bragging up the DCL to everyone trying to get them to go on one. Disney should hire us as PR specialists!

Stay in touch and let us know when you go. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

[spunky1]

Loved your site. The whole family really had fun hearing the ship's horn again. We cruised last summer and LOVED it!

Thanks again.

[caskar]

WOW, what a report! I have read many but this is the best. I told my wife she has to sit down and read your report. She has never read any of the boards but THIS should be read to prepare for the fun we will be having in June. We have two young daughter, too. Thanks for posting the report.

[sasha]

I just have to say, you have the most adorable family! Your trip report was by far the best I've ever seen.

My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and the pictures were awesome! We loved how you got every angle of your stateroom. We're going on our first Disney Cruise in 3-1/2 weeks and have a verandah room, so it was exciting to see what the room will look like ahead of time. What we loved most about your report was your positive attitude. We've read so many negative posts with complaints about the food, service, and that there are so many children on board (what else would you expect on a Disney Cruise???)!

Reading your report made us even more excited about our trip (didn't think that was possible). Thanks so much for sharing your story with us all!

Sasha :D

[zurgswife]

It has me dreaming about doing a cruise someday soon.....

[Amzey]

Just wanted to say that I adore your trip report website! It is so well designed, and your kids are just too cute! :)
I even got my younger sister excited about our cruise (she had previously not wanted to go) by showing her your website.. she ended up printing the whole thing out and putting it in a binder so she could look at it all the time, LOL. Wonderful job!

[d'Isigny]

Wonderful web site...appreciate your hard work.

I'd love to know how-where to get a "trip down" counter like you have displayed.


thx, K

[Jules62]

Loved your site! Your girls are adorable! Your site brought back such memories of our 12/22/01 Christmas cruise. Thanks for sharing with us.

:bounce: :bounce: Jules:bounce: :bounce:

[rkearbey1]

d'Isigny...it is a java script. If you'd like it, email me at rkearbey4@charter.net and I'll send it to you!!

Thanks everyone for your MANY compliments. If anyone has questions, feel free to ask. We are going again in October!!

[cumickey]

Another wonderful report, especially enjoyed your pictures and what a cute family you have!, Thanks!

[SnowW's Mom]

Thanks for a great site!

We are home one week from the Magic and I played your ship's horn this morning to wake my kids! My 16 year old son thought he must be dreaming and thought to himself, "I gotta get up, mom is going to kill me!" When he finally came down, I played it again for him. What a fun treat to hear that great sound again.

[minnieears]

I enjoyed reading about your trip. I plan to show my daughters your pictures to give them an idea of what to expect.

We will be on the Wonder for the June 2nd sailing. Can't wait!!!

I've read discussions about the casual attire, but no one has mentioned whether they needed a light jacket or sweater. Obviously, it will be hot in June. However, what is the temperature for inside the ship; in the restaurants, theatres, etc.?

Is a light jacket or sweater a good idea? I'm trying to pack lightly since we'll be flying with two small children (3 and 4.5 years), and with the tight security at airports, I don't want to lug more than what's absolutely necessary.

Thanks!

[WDWLVR]

What a great site! Thanks for taking the time to share it. Looks like you all had a great time.

[ruvidu]

I am at work but I emailed your site url to my wife at home so she could enjoy it as well.
We are in our 50s and travel alone so it was great to see your trip through the eyes of your children and you.

Best multi-media DCL trip report I've seen. Glad your family had a great time. THanks for sharing it with the rest of us.

[4crusinransiers]

What a great report! Great website!

[BABYJOSIE98]

RKEARBEY,

Your website is great!!! I see you went twice in Jan. Did you have good weather both times?? We have our first Disney cruise booked for Feb 1,2003 Western Caribbean. I figure the weather should be really nice in the Caribbean and maybe take a chance of Castaway Cay being a little cool? Anything will be warmer than St.louis in Feb!! We just wanted to go when it is nasty here. Your Daughters were really cute!! The little one reminds me of my little Character!! She will be almost 5 when we go in Feb. Probably close to your youngest DD's age. Did she really enjoy the clubs? Sounds like you and your wife had plenty of alone time together. My DD is very out going and I hope she enjoys them. I know we have 10 months to go,but I can not stop planning and thinking about this trip!!! We are doing 2 days at WDW before the cruise. After reading your trip report I am more obsessed than ever!!!!
Thanks!!!:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

one more thing???? Did you see any of the other little girls wearing princess dresses at the formal nights??? I know our little one will want to if she can??:D

[Amzey]

Just wanted to bump this up because it is my absolute favorite trip report. :cool: :)
