Oh Darvina!! That is so cute!! I love it. Looks like your DDs had a great time working on it as well. What a great family project!
Yours is so much more fun though! Looks great![]()

Well, you can't really go with the less stressful Pittsburgh train idea because then your DW won't be able to have breakfast Hoboken Style. Yes, I do believe I see the Lincoln Tunnel in your future! But how bad can it be on a Saturday morning? Just be glad we are not sailing on a Friday!
The NY terminal may not really have the whole Disney Theme going, but the Intrepid is docked right next to all the cruise ships and that's fun to see and of course The Statue of Liberty will be there wishing us a bon voyage!!

Please let me know if I'm missing a celebration or have any wrong information.
The blue font indicates those who have signed up for the FE.
I listed the ages of the children at the time of sailing. I hope!
No last names, addresses, or emails are listed.
And don't forget beautiful views of the skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge.If I get a chance to get down to the pier before our trip, I will take some informational pictures. I need to do some other cruise line ship tours (I'm a travel agent), so there is a pretty good chance I'll get down there!
Great idea! I am going to go sign up for the FE. We definitely want to do that!
I have some skyline photos too! I'll post a few until you can get there to take some of your own! This is the view we'll all have as we sail out of NYC!!
If anyone has NYC questions - like safe areas/good areas to stay, transportation, cheap (but good) eats, etc. I am more than willing to help! We are in Manhattan a lot, so I can stop by a hotel if you'd like and take a few pictures, look around the lobby to get a vibe, etc.
Hello -
I had read a bit ago on the DIS that many cruise meets will create a Facebook group that is open only to the people on the cruise. It said that it is a great way for the fellow cruisers to get to know each other more.
I created a group (Disney Magic - June 2, 2012) if anyone is on Facebook and would like to join - please do.

Hi thought I'd introduce myself Ill be cruising on the 6/2 NYC with my DH and DS. We just got off the Dream so it will be interesting to sail the Magic and compare. My son who is sailing w/us works in Manhatten and we live about an hour away so are lucky not to have to flyWe plan on taking a town car to the port. Our cabin is on Deck 6..I rebooked our NYC cruise on my Dream cruise 2 weeks ago and saved $300 plus got a $200 OBC so Iam even more excited. I guess that's about it for now. Looking forward to the cruise

Thanks Brook! I've read a bunch of different things so far, but would love your opinion... Better to stay in NJ or NYC? NJ definitely cheaper right? How about tours? Do you think we could squeeze a quick tour of NYC the night before the cruise?

Glad to share the NYC love! I am blessed to live here - I am very much a "City girl" and still have moments where I am amazed at where we live. Walking down Wall Street or seeing the skyline still has me in awe a bit. This City is beautiful and has SO MUCH history, it's fantastic! There are things that aren't wonderful about it - it's dirty, loud and expensive...but the positives far outweigh the negatives in my book!
If anyone wants pics of anything - just let me know, I quickly pulled those above off my Facebook, I'm always more than happy to share, or go snap a few new ones!
I just have to ask. Did you go to the Harry Potter exhibit at the Discovery Times Square? I went with my goddaughters during April Vacation and it was fantastic! AND Carlos Bakery was opening up a counter there! No need to go to Hoboken!![]()
