August 31st 2013 - 7 night Mediterranean cruise aboard the Disney Magic

[MissMorningStar]

Hi all,

The FE list is now closed to new participants.

There are 13 cabins/45 participants taking part in the FE. We have split the group into 2 separate groups 'Mickey' and 'Minnie' to make the exchange more manageable for people.

As we are aware some of you may want to participate in both groups- you can add your name to the other list up until Sunday 7th July 2013 when the lists will then be finally closed

I will ask Florida Mel to update the front page with the new link.

Has anyone received their cruise documents in the mail yet?

Just curious to see if they've started sending them out yet.

 

[debsters41]

No, not yet for me...

 

[cforsythe]

Nope. Anxiously waiting..

Mel, could you please add Steve and Christine, Sue (2 people) and The Labbes (1 person) to the Mixology list? Thank you!

We need 10 more people, let's let our hair down and have fun!

Hi cruisers!
I was told to see this thread, since my family and I are probably going to join you (probably, because school in Germany starts two days after our arrival) and I am glad to see that there are so many people going on the same cruise. And I wanted to ask a little advice: For the people arriving by car, do you know a good, safe parking spot in Barcelona? We're a little concerned of letting our car alone for 7 days. Also, I was wondering, since this is the last pre-renovation cruise, do you think that we might be able to get some extra souvenirs, like cutlery from restaurants that will be remade or something like that? I would love to take a special little something home from the Magic. Has anyone here ever taken a pre-renovation cruise? Does something like this happen or is it just wishful thinking? Excuses, if those questions were already asked, I didn't get to read all 22 pages.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings,
Anubis7

Hi Anubis7, and welcome aboard! I do not believe that they will be giving away any cutlery or anything else that will not be in use after the refurbishment, but it won't hurt you to ask, right? There will probably be sales in the shops, but I doubt they would wait until the last cruise to have sales, so the offerings might not be as many. The Disney website has some good information about car parking somewhere I think on your reservation page. Also, I would ask that question on the regular DCL forum (where I found you ) Someone there might know more, because I don't recall this thread mentioning parking.

Is this your first Disney cruise? It really is a lot of fun. Go ahead and ask as many questions as you want, I cannot promise that we will have the answers, though!

If you have facebook, do visit the page that is linked on the first post of this thread. Look at the other events and things on that post and let me know if you want any more information about them.

We are going to have a great time!

Hi debsters41!
I know, that it's pretty unlikely, but a fanboy can hope, right? Oh, I didn't even think of shop-sales, however I hope that there are some, I need to buy a Disney t-shirt, which I managed not to do in 8 Disneyland visits.
And, yes it will be our first cruise, however my mother already cruised as a little girl, so we're all pretty excited(, even my little brother, who always acts like he's too cool for Disney ).
And thanks for the advice, I will certainly follow it.
Greetings,
Anubis7

Hello Fellow Cruisers! For those of you who are just lurking, here is your chance to jump in and be heroes! We need 10 more people to join our Mixology class. That's only 5 couples, Or families with adult children...

As a reminder, Mixology is a class where participants get hands on learning how to make fabulously impressive cocktails. For this cruise, you must be 18 or older to participate (18 - 20 year olds with parents' blessings) and there is a charge per person of 15 to 20 dollars (there is some debate whether it is 15 or 20) It is said to be an amazing experience. Please let me know if you are interested! 15 of your fellow cruisers will be eternally grateful, and will be your best friends forever... (or as long as you can stand them, your choice).
