    Must have souveniers?

    If you want to know what stuff you can only get on the ship or on Castaway Cay jus task a CM. There are 6 pins on CC that you can only get there. I asked the guy at the register, just to be sure which ones they were. I'm not a pin collector, but something like that is worth buying...if...

    Characters onboard

    Just have it in your carryon...go to guest services and drop them off. It shouldn't be a problem. They will be able to tell you if the can't do it by not taking the shirt/cards. It really was nice to not have to keep to the character schedule too! We already had 3 in kids clubs plus our own...

    Characters onboard

    Do it the easy way, and just have fun... We took a T-shirt to Guest services with our childs name and Stateroom number on the first night. By Wed. we had the front of the shirt all signed with every character on the ship. Mickey Pluto Minnie...

    Must have souveniers?

    My recommendation about shutters is if you have a digital camera, take it with you to shutters. Group your pictures together and sit in the corner. Compare your pictures to theirs. I Threw out 12 of their pictures because I had the exact same one in my camera. One of the cast members came by...

    Cruising Nov. 2 -- have many, many questions

    2. The clothes you want depend upon where you're from...you listing only says USA. If from the North your choices should be fine, it will certainly beat 20 degrees and snow. If from the South know that there is always a breeze outside, and the interior is WELL air conditioned. My wife liked...

    Contacts and Snorkeling?

    I agree with Relling, but if you are still hesitant, purchase some goggles at Wal Mart or something and try them out before you go. Take them with you and save $10-$15 dollars. That's 3 more Konk Coolers you can have!!!!!!

    First time cruiser has 2 questions!!

    There are cartoons playing as well as some characters in the terminal for the kids. Also the model of the ship for them to look at. The lines shouldn't be too long by then. The nice part about not getting there until then will be that the rooms will be ready, so you can go directly to your...

    Just back - LOVED Mission Space!

    I don't believe there was a height requirement. My 6 year old is over 42" and was able to ride it. The key to not feeling sick is to not lift your head or turn it. if you get motion sick you should be fine if you keep your head back and look straight into the monitor. You DEFINITELY DON'T...

    Just returned July 24th...if you care for some scoop!

    Ours was from Croatia, sorry for the misunderstanding. It's not a very common name, I wouldn't think. Surprised they have 2 of them working on the cruise ships.

    Just returned July 24th...if you care for some scoop!

    I'm not sure, but he did tell me that he has a son, and my wife and I are 95% sure he said he has a daughter also. He's on the Wonder now. He was excellent servicewise, and very humorous. Like I said on earlier posting, he was able to spend some extra time at our table. I really liked the...

    The Bridge Is Open!!!!!

    We did our tour in Nassau, I believe they did them at Castaway Cay also, but not sure. "in port " means when docked at pierside(lines attach the ship to the pier). As far as kids go...the tour is above the actual bridge, so no hands on, but it is full of information about the ship and the...

    Just returned July 24th...if you care for some scoop!

    I totally agree! The dance party was awesome! Our dinner table mates told us the next day they had seen us and wished they weren't on deck 10 because we looked like we were having so much more fun. My thought is... you don't have to be on the dance floor to dance, and there's no use in...

    Just returned July 24th...if you care for some scoop!

    Aluan WAS a hero in DCL clothing. Seemed really nice. I had forgotten to post this... The fireworks on the 4-day as you leave Nassau...EXCELLENT!!!! For a better view be on port side deck 10. For a better time enjoying the party AND the fireworks stay Starboard side of the dance floor/a...

    The Bridge Is Open!!!!!

    Guest services will print you a ticket for a time that's available. I don't recommend it for smaller kids. My 6 y/o was very bored. It is strictly informational. You are allowed to take pictures. They go over each of the sections of instruments on the bridge (Comm, Navigation, Safety...

    Audio file of Ship Horn?

    You will definitely hear it as you leave from Port Canaveral. Also, they sounded the horn in the Bahamas right after someone elses boat sounded theirs...Just to make them jealous from what one of the staffers told us on the Bridge tour. That may be a good chance to ask them about a certain...

    The Bridge Is Open!!!!!

    Just to fill you in July 20th -24th was the second week the Wonder offered the Overlook Bridge tour. Just go to Guest services and book your time. They only do them while in port so understand space is limited. I did it when I took my kids card to invalidate them for charging and to drop off...

    Just returned July 24th...if you care for some scoop!

    Okay, I'm a Castaway Club Member now. Here's my version of a trip breakdown. Unfortunately, I didn't bring a little notebook to remember all the names of all the meals I ate, but they were excellent. First let me thank the DISers that gave me insight where needed, as well as a book out...

    nassau excursion or not?

    I just got back from the 4-Day on Disney Wonder, July20-24. I didn't do an excursion, decided ahead of time to just enjoy the boat, without all the people...It was nice! Many of the people I spoke with didn't enjoy their excursion as much as they had hoped to for the money spent. The only...

    Questions about price and kids~!

    I totally agree with you. I guess I didn't explain the full thought, you could NOT book your spouse, substitute a child(who will be full price for now anyway). This will get the children into the clubs, and you can add the adult later....as long as the cruise isn't filled. Once you book the...

    Questions about price and kids~!

    I am sailing in 10 days, or less(Chech counter), and called 3 days ago to add an adult. Not a problem! It all depends upon bookings. If there are ship's cabins still available, then you can still add people. I would have thought July would have been booked up though by now. I also noted...
