    Question Re: How full the ship is

    We were on the 3-day Dream cruise when Sandy not only prevented us from landing anywhere, but kept everyone below decks (deck 4 and deck 11 outside off limits)' and we did not feel overcrowded. Some congestion near the main stairs and midship elevators on occasion, that's all :).

    Chill spa question for my 12 and 11/12ths year-old DD

    My DD is desperate to have a spa treatment on the Dream, but turns 13 2weeks after our cruise. Has anyone been shown any mercy by the spa as far as the 13 year old age limit? Who would I ask?

    MDR rotation on a 3N bahamas

    It's true that the lunch experience at Royal Palace is different, but we had a great meal there! DD and I still talk about the chilled mango soup with mint foam!

    Hurricane stories anyone???

    As I've stated on other threads, we were on the Oct 2012 hurricane Sandy 3-day "Cruise to Nowhere". When we left PC, the eye of Sandy was north of us, and we wer obviously going south with every anticipation of stopping at at least one port. Unfortunately Sandy blew up and re-engulfed us, we...

    Castaway cay cancelations

    Last October, hurricane Sandy, we didn't land anywhere, both CC and the Nassau dock were damaged. The cast members kept saying things like "but we're happy because everyone is SAFE, aren't we?". It makes me think they knew that the Fantasy had been tossed around pretty seriously the day before...

    April ~ October ~ November

    We were on the Dream last year, Oct. 24, when Hurricane Sandy was going through. Even though we ended up not going to either CC or Nassau (storm damage), and weren't able to go above decks (weather!), we still had a good time. We received a 25% off discount for another cruise of the same kind...

    Question about 4 night Dream cruise shows

    On our cruise last October, we got some giggles from Villians, Golden Mickey's was fun, but thought Believe was a bit dull, however we couldn't blame the show as we were on the cruise during Hurricane Sandy and for safety reasons there was no flying... Mary Poppins popped up from the side, and...

    Tropical System in Bahamas - port change options?

    Got off the phone with DCL about an hour ago, just to see what they had to say. No surprises- "don't worry, the cruise will happen, any changes to the itinerary can't be decided upon until much closer to departure time, etc". The CM mentioned some possible options in passing, not promising...

    Tropical System in Bahamas - port change options?

    Also on the 25th. Trying to keep optimistic, the worst of the storm is currently on the east side of the center, and the storm center is likely to pass to the east of our route. I've read about several possible course changes in the past-- everything from switching the days of the two ports of...

    Celebration cakes, cake of the day and pre-orders---QUESTIONS, questions, questions..

    I believe that there are two types of cheese platters- the one you pre-order and costs extra (fancy) and the room service one (simpler, but doesn't cost extra except for tip).

    Where to put stuff?

    Has anyone done the Atlantis Aquaventure? I thought I read somewhere that lockers were available but now can't find the reference. Do they lock if available?

    Post-marathon weekend resort checkout

    An extra night would be great but just doesn't work (kids have school, DH has work on Monday). Good thought about possible pool showers, and thanks for the warning about possible bus snafu. At sometime closer in, I think I'll call the resort and throw myself on their mercy, see if they have any...
