Yay!!! We're going too! This is going to be my 3rd on Disney, and my husbands 2nd! Thanks for starting this thread!

Maybe we'll get upgrades since the ship appears to be empty

We're sailing with you too! There are 3 of us (me, DH, DS9). This is our 6th DCL cruise. We LOVE the Wonder!

Still just the 3 of us?! Wouldn't it be nice to have Castaway Cay all to ourselves? Happy 4th of July Y'all!

My "crew" will be on this sailing.
We're made up of 4 families and we'll be in 6 cabins. This is my family's 5th cruise and the other families' 2nd or 3rd cruise. Our ages range from 10 to Grandmothers' ages. We all sailed together in March and this is our "bounceback" cruise. I hate that it'll be such a short cruise, but I'm sure we'll all make the most of it and have a great time.

Can you believe the cruise is less than 9 weeks away?!?

Hello,
We are a family of 3 and this will be our first cruise. We will be celebrating our daughter's 5th birthday. She is over-the-top excited she tells anyone that will listen about her cruise! We are excited as well...now, if I could just lose that last 10 pounds...lol. Marty

We're joining the group too! First time DCL cruisers! So excited!!! DS is only 3 years old. I promised myself I'd wait til he was older...but couldn't resist this Labor Day cruise! Can you say Disney Addiction? Are we all on an empty ship? Upgrade time???

Hi! It's our Bounceback cruise too..... and just happens to be our 12th anniversary! (We celebrated our 10th on the Magic in the Walt Suite ) Anyway, we are a family of 3, with a 6 yr old daughter. Can't wait.

We have had a very rough summer. On Memorial Day my husband fell waterskiing and shattered his tib/fib. 2 surgeries, 3 hosptial visits, and 20 screws & 3 plates later.....and on crutches the whole summer. Fingers crossed he will be in a walking boot by 9/3

We are going no matter what!!!

Hi this is our first DC. There are three of us and we are so excited. I have read all the tips on the forum so I think we are ready. Any suggestions, tips, etc are appreciated. We are staying at the Bay Lake Towers before the cruise so we are even more excited. We did get a stateroom upgrade so I am more excited now.

I know...I don't know which one I am more excited about - BLT or the Cruise lol.....

 

[ILuvTigger]

Did anyone get an upgrade??

We did!! We had 2 adjoining Category 9's (Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom), and now we are in 2 adjoining Category 5's (Deluxe Stateroom with Verandah). Talk about awesome!!

 

[FloridaFamof3]

To previous poster - That is awesome - a verandah!!!!

We actually had 2 upgrades already (?). We paid for a cat 12....but I've seen our stateroom change online twice.... from a cat 11 first, then to a cat 9 just a few days ago. I was so happy to hear we'd be able to see outside!

Counting the days..................
