Well, EEs*Mommy - one day you're in and the next you're out! (sorry for the Project Runway reference, but I just couldn't help myself. )

Reschedules my cruise to this day for my hubbys bday! Can't wait! Wondering what the weather would be like since I've never been to florida... afraid of hurricanes :/

We are so thrilled that we are going on this cruise! First time on the Dream, our third Disney Cruise. Traveling with daughter (35-special needs) and granddaughter (10). Saw the fall special for the Dream with the $100 stateroom credit if booking a verandah, and originally tried for October date for DDs birthday, but were already sold out. So happy to meet all of you!

Anyone planning to go to WDW? I just made our airline reservations and changed my original departure date so I can get in one day at Fantasyland with the girls before the cruise. Am working on where to stay, hoping for BLT for the convenience to the monorail.

 

[MScott1851]

Just booked...myself (36) DH (41) and dd (having 4th bday ON cruise, along with my parents, DH's mom & stepdad, and another couple we are friends with.

Maggiesam, we are adding either a 4 or 5 night stay afterward, hopefully at BLT, but might have to settle for Contemporary or Polynesian. My stepfather-in-law is retired military, so we have to see what's available.

 

[maggie_sam]

I just put in a request to rent points, BLT being 1st choice, hoping it works out. Good luck with your plans, hope it works out for your family. And how nice to be celebrating a birthday on the cruise, I am sure it will be 'magical' for her!

Welcome MScott1851! I've added you to the roll call. It's sounds like yall will be having a great birthday/family trip! Glad to have you join the group...even if you are a Bama fan.

Maggie - we are doing one day before at Typhoon Lagoon and at least two days after in the parks. We are booked at the Boardwalk - waitlisted at BLT. I'm trying to get Pops and DH to extend the trip another night though. We have the points, but they want to come back to go to an LSU game. I'm already making them miss one game; two is a hard sell.

The new Fantasy Land is awesome. You'll love it.

We are staying at BLT for 2 nights before the cruise. I hope to see you there!

 

[maggie_sam]

Just found out that I am able to get BLT and am in the process of booking. We will be there for two nights before the cruise! Had lots of fun last night looking and exploring the new Fantasyland. Here is a great link, my granddaughter was so excited exploring:

I just booked this cruise a few days ago for myself, boyfriend, and my parents. This is my second cruise, my parents third, and my boyfriend's first. I've never been on the Dis Boards, but had a friend tell me how much fun it was to do this before and then doing fish extenders, so I thought I'd join in the fun myself!

 

[maggie_sam]

Welcome!

 

[jenifred]

Welcome FairyGTLC! I have added yall to the roll call. There is a TON of info on the Disboards. And Maggie_Sam posted a recent set of Navigators on our Facebook page, if you are looking for one. Happy planning!
