    The BEST swim with the Dolphins Program!!!

    I'll just chime in with more encouragement to book that event, and do it early! We were on the same cruise, and also did Dolphin discovery. My 8-year-old son and my husband did the Dolphin Swim, and my 4-year-old daughter and I did the Dolphin Encounter. Gen. Max and the others on this board...

    1st strike on Iraq...any annoucements/changes onboard??

    I'm onboard now, too. Our source of news is CNN. The Promenade Lounge TVs have been showing CNN, FINALLY with the volume on. They showed Pres. Bush's initial speech, then for a long time wouldn't turn the volume back on because they didn't want to spoil the Disney mood as we were told by one...

    Attn: March 15th western cruisers

    We're going, too. We were on the Eastern last March 16 and are looking forward to the new itinerary. Me, husband and two children, boy (8) and girl (4). Are there any other young girls out there?!

    March 15 Docs are here!

    We'll be there, too! We'd love to find friends for our children -- son 8 and daughter 4. We went last year on the Eastern C. Magic and the kids LOVED it. Thought about going skiing this year, but kids begged for the Disney cruise again. We don't have our documents yet, but I'm not worried. We...

    Remind me, when are seating times???

    THANKS, DAVE! So since we're scheduled to eat at what will seem like 5 p.m. to us -- too early -- I'll probably change to late dining. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise! Liza (and Cherylp3, if your excursion won't have you back on the ship by your dinnertime, you...

    Remind me, when are seating times???

    Dave, pardon a dumb question but I'm not smart enough to figure this out: On the March Western Magic cruise, can you please tell me what the on-ship "body clock" time would be to a cruiser used to Central time, at what would be 6 p.m. in Central time? For example, while in Key West at 6...

    Western Scuba Trip Reports

    Scuba diver, thanks for the info. DH and I are both open water certified but our son is too young (8) -- he has done snuba, though. On our western cruise next year, he'd like to do snuba again. Did any of the dive shops you used offer that? And where was it, if so? Did you think about diving...

    Just returned from the Magic where everyone got sick (ALSO CAN POST HERE)

    On our spring break Magic cruise last year, three out of four in my family got something that sounds similar to Norwalk. It does make for a miserable cruise while one has it (or one's children have it), but I wanted to mention it was made much easier for us because we had a veranda cabin. The...

    New Cruise Iteneiry for 2004

    Hi! Can you please tell me where it was you saw the Mediterranean cruise would be in 2004? My questionnaire did not specify the date or year, just referred to "future cruises". Perhaps we received different e-mails, or maybe I missed it. Thanks!

    Disney's new Mediterranean itinerary?

    That last bit didn't copy and paste well; it is a chart showing the ports, and the cities that are nearby those ports ("access to"). Here are the ports, and the other cities mentioned in my previous post are the "access to" cities: Ports: Barcelona, Spain (home port) Cannes, France...

    OK. There were a lot of questions, but here's the relevant part discussing the relocation and itinerary: For a limited time, Disney Cruise Line will relocate one of its ships to the Mediterranean Sea for a series of 7-night cruise vacations. In addition to all the on-board entertainment and...

    Disney's new Mediterranean itinerary?

    Did other people get the Disney questionnaire about the proposed new 7-night Mediterranean cruise? According to the questionnaire, Disney will temporarily relocate one of the ships, for cruises departing from Barcelona, visiting ports like Cannes and Naples. I don't keep up with these boards...

    I have a couple of postcards for the $50 credit.

    After my cruise I received a couple of postcards to be given to first-time DCL cruisers. If they mail it in, they'll receive the free video and a $50 onboard credit ("Based on product purchased, not valid with all offers and must be applied at time of booking"). Postcard must be mailed by...

    Sailing with 2 youngsters

    If you're really looking for an honest answer, here's my opinion: It depends upon your expectations. We were three families who cruised last March with a total of 6 children: Ages 3, 3, 4, 4, 5 1/2 and 7 1/2. The 23-month-old child of one family was left back at home with grandparents. All...

    Questions about princesses on 4 or 7 day??

    We saw characters often. Sitting in Cinderella's lap was a highlight of the trip for my DD3. We took a dress-up dress for our DD (tulle overlay on the skirt) she wore to dinner one night and she had it meeting Cinderella and her eyes just shone. She also met Snow White in the Oceaneers Club and...

    dolphin encounter is just too $$, where should we scuba at??

    Your twins are too young for scuba, but they could do snuba. My 8-year-old did it and loved it. It's the same experience as scuba diving, but instead of wearing a tank on your back, you tow the tank in a small inflatable raft floating on the surface above you. The tank has a 20-foot-long hose...
