9/7/13 Fantastical Eastern Caribbean Adventure

[Admiral Donald]

hi all,

we are on this cruise and 14th B2B -

cheers

 

[abeason1974]

I am so excited for this cruise, this will be our 3rd!! 1st was on the Dream, 2nd will be in 3 weeks on the Magic and then 2013 we are Fantasy bound. It will be my hubby, and 2 kids with me (at time of same my daughter will be 10 and son 8 1/2)

Do you all use FB, the folks on the Magic cruise set up a private group for our cruise, it seems easier to communicate and pass along info,,just an idea not sure who sets it up and approves the cruisers.

Anyway, I am beyond excited for St Maarten and St Thomas and of course castaway cay!!

 

[abeason1974]

So I just paid the down payment yesterday! I'm soo excited it's been years since I've taken a caribbean cruise.... and things have definitely changed since then.

Going this time it'll be myself (Jaymee) and my DBF (Chris) and I'll be 23 at the time while he'll be 28... We're timidly celebrating 4 years together on this cruise, and I'm kinda hoping that (that is if he doesn't do it before the cruise) this might be the romantic moment he's been waiting for to propose!

Just so you know I LOVE Disney (even if it's conforming to society), we both love The Lion King, and if you ever look at us (and sometimes our relationship too) you'll notice a Beauty and the Beast thing going on... haha! Anyway this will be our first cruise on DCL and I'm really excited since even though I'm an adult there are still sometimes I wanna act like a kid, and Disney does it best when bringing out the kid in us! I know that I'm going to ride the aquaduck as many times as I can, but also indulge in a couple grown up stuff like a few beers as well... this is gonna be a lot of fun guys!

I hope this cruise is your special unforgetable proposal.

We just came off the Fantasy on the Sept 1st thru 8th sailing and loved it. We booked this cruise for 2013 while onboard and was placed in room 5646 at the back of the boat which we loved. We were in room 9144 on the sailing we just came off and loved the room but decided we wanted the bigger verandah this time.

 

[EMTMICKEY]

Is anyone interested in doing fish extenders on this cruise?

 

[thedonduck]

We just moved our dummy date to this cruise. It will be a honeymoon desk for us from 3 years ago since we both had swine flu while on board. It was a great place to be sick, but not a great time for a honeymoon. So we are leaving the kiddos behind! This will be our fourth DCL cruise (been on all of the other ships) and DH's first time on an Eastern. We are in a 9C GTY room so I'm excited for that.

Favorite WDW resort: Port Orleans Riverside
Favorite Character: Figment (DH loves Donald Duck)
Favorite DCL drink: Konk Cooler

Can we start a roll call type thing?

 

[Tami0220]

Is anyone interested in doing fish extenders on this cruise?

I am defnitely interested in doing FE exchange. Is it too soon to start thinking about it? This is our second cruise, just DH and me, we did it on our first cruise. We were on the Panama cruise we had over 100 participants. Hoping this is a bit smaller and more personal, even though the ship is so much bigger!

Hi everyone! We're booked on this cruise in cabin 6672! I'm so excited and can't believe it's a year away! I'll be sailing with my husband Michael and our 2 kids Kylie and Connor (12 and 9 respectively at the time we sail). This will be our first Disney cruise and the first cruise ever for me and the kiddos! Looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Hey everyone, I just came off the Fantastic Fantasy Saturday (Sept 15th, 2012) with this same itinerary. I booked a dummy date while on board and seriously considering sailing this date next year.

This last cruise it was just my DW (39), DS(4) and myself(39) in a Cat 8D Ocean view (6670) stateroom. If I can talk my wife into going next year we will bump up to a 8C and add my DD(will be 22 mths) and my mother (Age withheld) to the mix.

We participated in the FE group, we had about 27 families and love it.

I would be happy to answer any questions you have.

 

[Spocky]

To add an international touch. Me and my wife booked the cruise today. It will be our second cruise with DCL. We've booked cat 5B room 8056.

I also was on the same cruise as pwiedower, the 9/8/2012 Eastern Fantasy, and it was really terrific. We are booked on this trip too. A lot of us DIS'ers from that trip are trying to go on this trip as well. We have a great group with a lively Facebook page. I feel like we made some great friends on that trip.

What a coincidence! We were on that cruise too.

GREAT memories with a GREAT group! Let's do it again~

 

[Slappy32]

Hi everyone, we have a FaceBook group page. It's the Fantasy Fantastic group from the 9/8/2012 sailing. There are quite a few of us returning on this sailing, we decided to keep the same group together. There are already a ton of helpful people on there that can answer any questions you might have. Just request a membership and come on and join the craziness of this amazing group.
