If she's turning 18, she's turning 18. If they don't let you both book Palo online, I'd book for just you then call up and let them pixie dust the problem from their side.

That'll be such a neat birthday!

Good idea,I will try and book for both of us online,if it won't let me I will use your suggestion for sure.I am looking at how I can order a cake too.I have to keep searching these boards to see if that's possible.Hope it will be a birthday to remember!

 

[DisneyMama629]

I'm in too! We are in connecting 5c rooms. It will be myself, my mom, and my son (3) in one room and my niece (12) and her mother next door!

I'm so excited that DCL is sailing from Galveston. We live in KS, and it will be great to save on the airfare!

Hello 2012 Magic Turkeys! We are looking into sailing this with yall. We sailed the Magic with a bunch of Magic Turkeys back in 2004 and then again in 2005. Those were some fantastic sailings. In 2005 we ended up with over 100 DIS Boarders sitting near each other in dining. It was like a party each night.

I am looking into the best way to book at this time. We will prolly use a combination of DVC points and payment. Anybody here use DVC points?

Oh, I guess I better introduce myself. I am Willie, and I would be sailing with my wife, Kelli, and daughters Hayley(22) and Erin(17) . Ages are at Nov 2012. We live in the East Texas town of Lumberton.

The Magic is a beautiful ship. And the crew are awesome. If you have younger kids especially.

Good to have you on board with us again

Willie! I sure hope you, Kelli, Hayley and Erin join us again! That'll be great. Maybe we can also coerce the Lamparskies and Eppards to sail with us also.

Fellow Texans, (and Okies, Arkansans, and folks from Lousiana) and ANYONE on this cruise...our family is looking forward to a wonderful time!

Introducing ourselves...Rob, Priscilla (let's say we're 50ish and OVER) will be sailing with our 18 year-old daughter. This will be our 10th Disney cruise, and all I can say is...it's ABOUT TIME DCL came to Galveston! We've waited YEARS for this (as yall have too.)

[WMILLER86]

Rob! Great to hear from ya. Are you guys booked? I am just now looking at everything. I don't think I can book this early with DVC points.

Folks, Rob and Prisicilla are some of the great friends we made on the Disney Magic Thanksgiving sailing in 2005. We sailed again with them in 2007 on RCCL. I made several friends on that cruise that I still keep in regular contact with. It was a memorable sailing, even for the crew, who would make comments like- "OH, you were on THAT sailing with all of the Thanksgiving Turkeys!"

Needless to say, there are some good stories to tell about the fun had. It is a special week, and a special ship. I am not too excited about missing Castaway Cay, though. In 2005 we did a double dip there.

We're kind of bummed about CC too. We'll just have to make up and party more in the ports, and Rockin Bar D. Yes, we're already booked. We'll be on the Dream in August, and (hopefully) can rebook for the OBC and 10% off, (if it's less.)

Can we get a list started in the first post with names and ages? I'm hoping there will be some other single moms on our meet thread!

I just went on my first Disney cruise in March with my mom and my son on the Dream. It was pretty difficult for me as I just got divorced. I'm hoping by this cruise I'll be able to have a better time!

The characters DO indeed dress up for Thanksgiving. Mickey and Minnie dress up like Pilgrims. The Christmas decorations will be up.

Lampy, you had to bring that pic from 80's night right off the bat.

You are going to scare off these nice people!



In the pic are Willie, Ron (Lampy) and Doogie performing You Give Love a Bad Name as the "Ron Jovies" and taking first place in the contest.

 

[DisneyMama629]

Will the characters be in Christmas clothing after Thanksgiving?

 

[cruisecrasher]

to the new posters~
This is going to be awesome to have such an active board so far out!
I guess it should be welcome back to a couple of y'all, rather than welcome.
Anyways, sent off for the baby's birth certificate so I can get the whole process started toward a passport...and she's up.

I know they aren't *strictly* necessary, but I'd rather have them anytime I leave the country.
Anyways~
Later!

I don't remember whether they were or not in 04-05. But the ship was decorated for Christmas, and it was beautiful. Big tree in main lobby, etc.

 

[WMILLER86]

@ Lampy- Regards to the cost- at least we have a long time to pay for the cruise! And you don't HAVE to have a balcony every time. Inside cabins are nice and dark for sleeping in after a late night.

 

[Mickeyhugger]

Yes they will in Christmas clothing and there will be a big ginger bread house being built at this time
