I'll be there - it's sort of a graduation present for me. I'll be with my parents and my two sisters, 13 and 10. The 29th is my dad's 50th birthday. :D

[upstateny]

I am taking my son who is 6 years old. We are both very excited about the trip.:bounce: :Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc

:) Looks like there will be a few 6 year olds - we'll be there with our son who was 6 last Dec. The 3 of us are looking forward to our first cruise.

[upstateny]

Did everyone get their documents?

I am looking for a place to go in St. Maarten. Does anyone one have suggestions or ideas? Dawn's Beach seems to be a favortie of some. None of the excursions listed interest me and I am more than willing to take DS6 on our own adventure.
Thanks!

[albeers]

We're gonna try the St. Maarten Island and Butterfly Farm Tour. I've seen good reports on the excursioin.

:jester:
hi we havent received our documents yet but we cant wait thats when it all starts to feel real!

[Mickbee]

Yup. We will be there too! Quite a few New England folks!

It will be our first cruise! Any thoughts for fun for a 9 yr old DS?

[albeers]

First time cruisers can get $ for onboard credit. Contact you travel agent or DCL, which ever you used to book your cruise. Ask for code REF. Using this code, we got a $50.00 onboard credit. The thread is http://disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=206665. See you aboard starting June 29.:smooth: :smooth:

Hi! We are on the 6/29 cruise as first time Disney Cruisers. Sons are 11 and 6. We received our docs, and are sooooo excited. We live about 5 minutes from Philadelphia. We are from South Jersey. Can't wait to get there!!!

Enjoy and see you there.

[upstateny]

It looks like we will be on a boat full of kids. It is going to be busy that's for sure! See you in the Mickey pool at 7 a.m. There is no way I am fighting the crowds during the day.

I am taking my son to Coral World and Coki beach on our own little excursion but I am still looking for something to do at St. Maarten "on our own." Please continue to let me know of any good ideas.

Thanks!:earseek:

We are a 2 family party cruising on the Eastern June 29 2002. We also have two 6 year olds(one boy & one girl) and a 9 year old girl. This is our first disney cruise. We are soooooo excited!
Happy Cruising!!

ALBEERS - Thank You for the tip!

I called Disney about the $50 credit and was directed to go through Orbitz ( that is how I booked my cruise) for the credit. Orbitz really didn't know what I was talking about but called Disney and I was given the credit. My husband asked why Iwas on hold for so long. I told him it was worth the $50 to be on hold for 5 minutes with Orbitz. I wrote the names of the people at Disney and Orbitz just in case I run into problems when I check in.

Thanks again for the tip!
Nicole

[Amzey]

Has anyone else not gotten their documents yet? If we booked through our travel agent will he get them and have to send them to us?

[upstateny]

As I said, I booked through Orbitz and received my documents through Fedex awhile ago. I had no problems.

We booked through AAA. Our travel agent call us last week and stated that she had the documents. Picked them up on May 31.:jester: :smooth: :jester: :smooth:

We'll be on the June 29th voyage as well! My DH and I are taking our 17 yr old daughter and her friend as a graduation present. It'll be the second cruise for DH and I and first for my daughter. We've had this booked using our DVC points since last fall and are really looking forward to it. We had a big scare 4 weeks ago when DH was admitted to the emergency room with chest pains and had to have a triple bypass 2 days later! Thankfully he's doing extremely well and the doc said the trip would be wonderful for him. :) We got our documents about 3 weeks ago and haven't made any excursion plans yet. I think we'll try Dawn beach on our own and a trip to St Johns as well.

And Albeers - we're in East Pennsboro, PA. Just across the river from Harrisburg...

See you all in about 3+ weeks!

[dsmini]

we got our docs last week yahoo almost time to go !

I am asking my mom day after day for the same information on the cruise. I'm so excited that i'm forgetting everything she has told me! Im with the big party of 10, mostly older kids, it is a sweet sixteen present for me from my loving parents. I have been working on my tan so i wont scare anyone when they see me in a bathing suit :) See you all there!

We're actually going down on Wed., so it's down to the wire for us (which means I still have a lot to do!).

Any guesses on if/what Disney will do for the 4th???? Since it's on Thur and a "Day at Sea", I have no idea. Too bad it doesn't fall on Castaway day......

Anyway, safe travels to all and see ya on the ship.:smooth: :smooth: :smooth: :smooth:

[princess1407]

5 DAYS TO GO!!!!!!
Better start packing!!

Amzey: they are intials
:p

[Amzey]

Oh, I get it, Princess. I was confused because usually we use DS, DH, DW, etc to mean [dear, darling, whatever] son, husband, wife.. so I thought your initials meant something like that. :)

[disneypilots]

We leave for WDW Thursday. This will be our 3rd Disney Cruise... Looking forward to the Cat 3 one bedroom suite !!!!! DS (9) and DD (11) can't hardly sleep for the excitement !!!:smooth:

[LeesilNY]

6 yrs. old and my nephew is 2.

[Amzey]

LeesilNY, you're so lucky to be all packed! I haven't even started yet! :o I still need to pack, send out thank you notes from my graduation and write my essays to get into the substance-free dorms at NYU. Argh! Oh well.. the excitement for the vacation cancels out the stress. :smooth:

[Amzey]

Just wanted to say I'm off for Florida in the morning and I hope everyone has a wonderful time.. let's hope for nice weather! :cool:

[dsmini]
