Hi!! I finally got through reading all 35 pages of this thread!! Me and my family are going to be on this cruise and are thrilled!! We've been on 2 cruises before but not DCL, so we can't wait. It's me, Annie (31), DH (40), DD (will be 6 on last day of cruise!) and DD (2).

I just got accepted on the fb page and will be signing up to do FE!! I can't believe we are getting so close!

I really wish they would start assigning rooms Anyone else in the GTY status? Have you gotten your room number yet?

We are on the same situation ... Getting impatient is an understatement ...

Got assigned our stateroom today ... We were on GTY 5E and that's exactly what we've got ! Delighted !!!

We just signed up for this cruise and will be waiting for our VGT stateroom assignment. We were on the January 12, 2013 eastern cruise and had so fabulous time. Looking forward to the western.

We were on the same cruise last year, as was Julmops! The weather was about as perfect as you could ask for...a few cloudy days and some wind, but nothing to complain about for us as we were experiencing sub-zero and snow in Iowa! Castaway Cay was windy and overcast, the water was chilly but once in it we adjusted. It wasn't the best weather that we have experienced for January...we have had cloudless, sunny skies and 80 degree temps on prior cruises...but hey, we were at Castaway Cay so who could complain? Counting down the days...can't wait to meet everyone!

Just emailed Dreams Unlimited to book! I can't wait for the reply It will be my hubby and me, DD 7 and DS 5 along with my parents. Once we have officially booked I will sign us up for the FE. Both cabins will join in (grandma and grandpa in one and the 4 of us in the other).

Hi Silver Queen ! We were on the same cruise in Jan 2013 and had the same idea as you !

Hello! I Just booked this cruise for a friend and I!

This will be my 6th cruise with Disney and my first on the Fantasy. My friend Renee hasn't been on one and I'm excited to experience her first time with her. We're in 8158 Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving.

Ahoy! We are late bookers for this sailing, and we CANNOT WAIT. But we're also feeling perhaps a little underprepared. We just don't want to miss anything. I'm 34, and our travel party includes my 5 year old son, my 24 year old sister, and our parents. I'm the only one in the party who has done a Disney Cruise, but that was over 10 years ago, and I'm sure it's even more fabulous. We've heard we'll feel left out if we don't do a fish extender, so I think we're going to figure that out. We just bring that and little presents to put in others? How many? How many times? We are doing the early dinner seating because of the kiddo. We haven't booked any excursions yet. Would love any "hellos" and suggestions so we get the most out of our trip and don't feel Dopey.

Welcome! My son will be almost 7. Hopefully they can meet up. The weather there is nice now so hopefully there will be fun times at the pool!

I'm not doing the FE but I think the list is closed now. See the first page and come join out FB group for more info on that.

Hi! I am from Canada and this is my first cruise with DCL. I have been on different cruise lines before but this is the one I really wanted to go to. Finally I have a chance to and I really can't wait! I am traveling with my mom and sister. My sis and I really wanted to make it a family trip and a gift to our parents, but my dad couldn't go. My mom will love it as she is a big kid even though she is in her 60s.

I am lucky as I found out after I booked the room, the DCL website does not have anymore rooms in my category.

I can't wait to meet all of you!

We will be joining you for this cruise. DH, DS, DD and I (all adults). We had to change from an April cruise due to an audition for my DD. This will be our second Fantasy cruise and 8th on DCL. I sent a request to the fb page. Anxiously awaiting our VGT assignment but we are just happy to be on the ship!

You mom sounds just like us. This will be our third Disney cruise. Last year we had great table mates who were around our age and traveling without children. We really enjoyed each other's company at dinner and looked forward to sharing our daily adventures. Hope you have a great cruise.
