10/20/2013 Disney Magic Miami Double Dip

[jeanigor]

I know you're asking ksinglet, but I can't resist, haha... We were DYING over the Fantasy! The Magic will always be my "mother ship" but the Fantasy is not to be matched in it's style and detail and exquisite design. They have created the perfect marriage between sophisticated elegance and Disney flair. It's such a fun vessel!! You're going to be overwhelmed!

Spectacular description!!!

I feel left out not being in the medical field. I'm in commercial construction.

That's great! Same ages for all of us, just reverse the genders of the grown ups. Elliot will be almost exactly 2.5. Do you have main dining?

yes we do. 8:15 is just to late for us. we have an inside room on deck two.

we just did the fantasy on 10/6. it was great. i think i like both style ships.

Anyone staying in Miami the night before? We're starting to look at hotels - stayed at the Marriott Biscayne pre-cruise years ago, and LOVED being able to see the ships/port when we woke up the morning of the cruise. Debating on whether or not to use the DCL transfers/hotels.

350 days! [/QUOTE]

We will stay in Miami the night before, but I haven't even begun to look at places. I will most likely make my own transfer arrangements this time. I've come to find out over the years that if you arrange your own transport you get on the ship much earlier than with DCL.

The cruise I just got off did that as well. It was more active than DisBoards. Is it a private group? Do you need to add people?

We also will probably stay in Miami for at least one night, if not two. The smaller airport in the Phoenix-metro area has REALLY affordable airfare, depending on the day of the week. Enough difference that it makes it worthwhile to get a hotel! Plus, we've never been to Miami. No ideas at all about a hotel yet. This last cruise we really splurged and stayed at a nice hotel and did Disney transfers. It made the whole thing much smoother and more carefree than my other cruising experiences have been. This time I think we will just do our homework and see what we think is a good value, and what is the most toddler friendly! I think Elliot would really get a kick out of the big Disney bus!

Oh, and I did a search for the facebook page, but no luck!

Hey all...... greetings from sunny San Diego! Just off the Fantasy 10/20 (finally got my land legs back) and literally JUST decided to move our dummy booking to this sailing. See lots of familiar faces..... EVA and VON!!

 

[EvaSue]

Yayyyy!! I'm so excited! This cruise has been a perfect picture in my head, and now it had the cherry on top! We are in 6152. I'm so glad I have someone to obsess with behind Von's back, haha.

I sent you a friend request - I think you have to be the one to add people to the group. Let me know if that isn't correct.

Well Good morning all.... Now that I'm ready for a new day, I totally flaked on saying HEY to everybody on board! Beadpirate.... Maybe we won't get banned from the bar this time?? But it all worked out! Good to see you're all ready to set sail again.....
There are a couple of you on here from 10/20/12 Fantasy that I didn't have the pleasure of meeting, but hopefully this time.

Eva and Von were our table mates and we were Von's partner in crime for his proposal to the beloved Eva..... We luv these peeps! Couldn't have gotten any luckier meeting them. Can't wait to meet little Elliott!! We'll be sailing with DS 10, and DS 8.... Poor little guys have yet to see CC.

We will get involved with anything and everything, so looking forward to fun for all!!

Welcome to everybody new

 

[ethanash1]

Morning everyone! This feels so far away, but it's gonna railroad us before we know it. Not sure about all of you, but I tend to obsess on every last detail. In my crazy busy everyday world of "Franco Family", I need something to distract me and look forward to.

Hello all,

Just booked this cruise. This will be our 10th DCL cruise. Picked the double dip because we were just in the Fantasy Hurricane Cruise and we missed Castaway Cay.

It is me, DW, DS15, DS13, DD9 at the time of sailing.

 

[EvaSue]

Oh my goodness! Haha... The whole ship is going to be full of us from the hurricane cruise! Welcome!

It's starting to look that way! We should make t shirts that say "Second chance club" LOL

Except mine will say "Third time is a charm"!

 

[EvaSue]

I want a t-shirt with Mickey standing in the rain hitch hiking with a sign that says "Castaway Cay or bust!"
