    Does anyone know when you can begin booking June 2007 Cruises

    We were on the 12/24/05 Magic sailing to the Eastern Caribbean. There was a LOT of talk about the Mediterranean, including comments by the Captain at the Castaway Club reception. Trying to figure out myself if we book for this summer, and then transfer when those dates come out, how pricing will...

    Christmas Cruising 2005

    :flower: Thank you! I haven't been on the boards in such a long time, and had forgotten about those shots. They will definitely be included in our scrapbook for this trip. It was a wonderful trip. I can't decide whether I prefer the Eastern or Western - they were each MAGICal in their own...

    Honest opinions.Is DCL worth the $?

    We took our first and only cruise last Christmas on the Magic. My DD's were close to the age where the oldest would soon age out of the Stack, and I had always wanted to do a DCL trip. I chose Disney because of the wonderful experiences we have had at WDW - everyone is pleasant, the parks and...

    Photo Christmas Cards

    A lot of families did that on our cruise -- we did it also. We took turns with our friends taking pictures with their camera while the Shutters photographer took their pictures, and then they took ours. If you have a digital you know you can depend on, and you get great reprints from, go for...

    extreme makeover home edition

    Have to agree with all of the above -- great show, wonderful families, and what beautiful homes! It was a lot of fun to catch a glimpse of the Magic at port at CC, and to see the kids having fun on Deck 9. Did you catch Ty Pennington's announcement of where they were going? "Disney cruise...

    Photo Christmas Cards

    If you didn't get your cards done when you were onboard, here is the site to print off a release from the company that runs Shutters, allowing you to make reprints of their photos. https://www.image.com/guest-postcruiseCopyrightReleaseForm.cfm I haven't seen the Christmas cards that...

    Lobster Nite...anyone?

    Lobster night was indeed the Captain's Gala night, and also happened to be Christmas night on our cruise. The "Ladies", including myself, all ordered the Christmas special --turkey and dressing - it was delicious -- with a side of .............. lobster!!

    You know you spend too much time on the DISboards when...

    What a great thread! I know I have spent too much time on the dis boards when, There are no new threads on the DCL forum, and I am looking at other forums on the boards about things we have no plans of doing............ All of our major vacations now are planned with Dis members we met...

    Addicted isnt the right word.....

    Hello, my name is Grumpy's Mom and I am a DISaholic. Let me tell you my sad story - the one where I almost let my home-based business go down the drain last year as I was "preparing" for our Christmas cruise! If not for these boards, we would not have had the vacation of a lifetime. I...

    What souvenirs should be bought before they sell out of it?

    We cruised last Christmas, so not only did we have to think about what was going to sell out by the end of the cruise, but also the end of the year! My biggest regret is that I did not buy the scrapbook - I bought several sets of the packaged papers and stickers, but didn't buy the scrapbook...

    Starting a charm bracelet at my age, silly?

    I had two silver charm bracelets when I was a child. One year for Christmas, I took the two bracelets to a jeweler, had all the charms removed and reattached according to each of my two daughters' interests. I have added to these bracelets every time we have taken a trip, or sent money along...

    How Do You Keep Your Kids Healthy?

    We have only cruised once, but from the boards and other cruise boards were fully aware of the health issues. I packed Purell and individually packed antibacterial wet-ones for my my DD-13, DD-17 and myself to carry and use throughout our trip. My DH is a pediatric specialist, and most of the...

    dining with other families

    For our 12/20/03 cruise, we got to know a lot of the Dis'ers on our Cruise meet thread, and several of us asked to be put together at the same table. This was by far the best idea we had for the cruise. We all already knew a little bit about each other, and thought that we would all get along...

    How are you making out when you come here to stay the night before?

    Shirley, You are so sweet to ask about these details. While we haven't been in Cocoa Beach/Orlando recently, I did take my eldest DH to Tallahassee last week to visit FSU. We had the BIGGEST PROBLEM renting a car in Jacksonville last week -- I tried for five days to get a car online, and...

    Deck 7 , Cat 11 !!?

    We stayed in 7504 on our 12/03 cruise. We have booked 7119 for the DD's and 7118 (cat 5) across the hall for DH and myself. Since we will be cruising with a group of DIS'ers, we thought it would be great for someone to be close to the aft deck. I'm glad to hear that these rooms are close...

    Amex TravelFunds Card

    I purchased one for my dd-17 to take with her to Europe this year, as a back up, in case she lost her debit card and cash. She used it everywhere in Europe, and even though it was loaded with dollars, when she used it at an ATM, she would get the appropriate currency for the country she was in...

    Disney Dream Auction - 14 day Repo - Coming back home

    Here's an interesting question: What do you think the price will be of the staterooms that come available at the 90/60 day mark? Do you think the price that Disney will ask will have any relationship to what the successful bid price is?
