This is my first Disney cruise and I was just curious. Thank you so much!

Thanks so much! Portraits are available in the ships atrium at specific times. Usually before and after dinner. All of this info. will be in your navigator that you'll get daily in your stateroom. When you use the ship's photographers you use your Key to the World Card (KTTW). The ships also have a face recognition program. All of the port photos are from my camera. I have a Canon 7D DSLR...I'm a photographer. I did however take my camera to all the meet and greets just in case I didn't fall in love with the ship's photographer photos but I did and bought the CD of all the photos taken on the Ship. I am glad I took my own camera for excursions and port adventures. This too was our first cruise and I can't wait to go again!!!

So glad you posted these. We are taking a Dream Halloween cruise this year. We were trying to figure out if you were able to dress up two nights (just in case the kids didn't want to be pirates for Halloween) and were glad to see you did!

Looks like somehow more and 1/2 of my trip report was deleted! Maybe to make room for newer ones?

How much was the CD? I was wondering.. . . we are going with a group. . . can we all give one room number so they all end up on one cd- do you know? It would be a total of 4 rooms.

I can answer that. no. We had a group of 6 rooms and my sister and I wanted 1 CD with both our rooms, but not doable for the same price. I think they told us for $150 more, we could add my room. BUT since we had a lot of pictures taken together, a lot of my pictures ended up on her room account since they use facial recognition, so we just got her CD and she copied it for me.
