I'm just up to "Cheating on the Mouse". Enjoyed seeing your photos as it certainly helps to put faces to names.

Back to vacation planning . . .

Some initial questions I have are:

What port (city) will we be sailing out of?
How far is the port from DL?
Does Disney offer transportation from DL to the port?
Any hotel recomendations?
Lastly (for now) we want to do 3 days at DL and possibly a bus tour of LA - if we stay near DL can we pick up a bus tour locally?

Thanks for any help you can provide. I've got lots of homework to do.

2 hour sightseeing tour of Hollywood, valid through 8/27/13 http://www.crowdcrave.com/deals/oran...eTours-details

Hi everybody,
Is anybody doing the Back to Back on this cruise.

We will be at Disneyland the night before the cruise and thought it would be great to get together

Any suggestions or ideas of where to meet would be great.

If there is something already set up we would like to be included

dolphingirl47 · 08-31-2012, 04:13 AM

We are doing the back to back and if all goes according to plan, we will arrive the Thursday before the cruise. We have not decided yet where we are going to stay. If we stay at Disneyland, I would definitely be up for a meet, but we may just stay with friends.

A good spot for a meet would be the lobby of the Grand Floridian by the fire place.

I certainly hope you mean Grand Californian since it would be a bit of an expense and travel time to meet at the Grand Floridian which doesn't have a fireplace in the lobby.

Yes, I meant the Grand Californian. I am in the middle of planning my November vacation which is a Western Caribbean cruise out of Galveston and 10 days at Walt Disney World so I got a bit confused.

Can we say we will meet at the Grand Californian by the fire place the night before the cruise at 8pm.

Looks like you just said it. Are you going to be in charge of organizing the meet?

I get confused at times too, didn't want too many people getting confused.

I guess it's a good confusion when you have too many trips planned.

Sure, I have never done it before but I am willing to try

We did this cruise last year and the the Alaska Inagural B2B, it was awesome. We are booked to do this repo again but will fly home from Vancouver. I liked the Alaska cruise but once is good for me. This repo I would do over and over. I will say, one thing not to miss in SF is the Walt Disney Family Museum, it is awesome. The tour that is offered by Port Adventures is just not long enough. We plan to go on our own and spend a good part of the day.

jilljill · 09-03-2012, 09:53 PM

We're planning on going to the Family Museum as well. Looking forward to it.

Welcome on board. I think we have been on the same cruise before. Did you do the first Med cruise in 2010?

I am really looking forward to the Disney Family Museum. I was looking at the excursion, but decided that it would not give me as much time as I would like so I am going to do it by myself. I also really want to visit Ghirardelli Square.
