05/24-05/31/14 - The Disney Fantasy, (Bob) Marley and Me on The FANTASTICAL VOYAGE!

[dznyacct]

Just wanted to say "hi" to the new families that have joined us in the last few days. Welcome!

I second that . We have a great group of DIS cruisers .

 

[sues14]

This can't do.....we were all the way back on page 6 ! Hope everyone has Spring close at hand. We had beautiful weather yesterday with temperatures in the low 60's. It made being back from Key West with my sisters seem not so bad . I know that JorDan is frantically packing for her Disneyland trip this week (go JorDan, go JorDan ). Does anyone else have any Disney trips coming up soon ? Brian and I are VERY anxiously awaiting our WDW trip with Lynsey, Jason and the ADORABLE Kaitlyn in May . After that, I think it will be a dry spell until the cruise. Happy Monday to everyone !!

I'm so glad you made it back from all that fun in the sun! I think it is great to spend time with your sisters! Did Linsey and Jason make it on our cruise last time. I remember talking with her on the boards but I'm having a memory laps I guess. Are they coming on this one? I hope so.

I too hope Spring is near...so tired of this cold. No Disney in my future until October...which can't get here soon enough!

Omg I am so wanting spring. We had Tony's family here for Easter one week early and we had a blizzard outside. The next week we had rain then on Easter it was beautiful again. My son says "if you don't like the weather here in Missouri, just wait five minutes and you will have something different". Soo true☀❄☀☀

Ugh! To go that far in such a short time...and no Disney? So sad! Hope you enjoyed the beach time...at least a little.

I agree We just went to support my niece who had a commitment ceremony. It is so important to have family all around you. Tony didn't have time off work. But the beach was great! I have never had fun on a beach! Sand and me don't get along, and salt is my enemy. But this time we all decided to be nice to each other. The results were awesome! I just might do that again sometime.

Hi All! I just found this thread. We booked opening day for silver members and while we didn't get the awesome deal alot of folks did, we are happy. We are:

DW-Trina (34) DH (43) DS (12) DS (11)

Right now we are booked in 8514 with early dining but that may change. DH and I are sailing the Dream in May and plan to rebook onboard to receive the 10% discount and OBC assuming the price doesn't go up much more before then.

Welcome! I am green with envy! I have to wait for a full year plus until our next trip. I hope you get a great deal! And welcome to the boards!

Hi, just booked today, YEY, its me (Linet, female 41yo at that day) and my daughter Karina(14 yo for the cruise). We are from Caguas, Puerto Rico and my cabin # is #9603, and I do want to be in the FE group. Last week on the Dream and Love it!!! Can wait!!

Welcome to our group! We have a very friendly group. Just a little quiet but that is to be expected. We will get noisy soon!

Hi! Just stepped off the Fantasy this past Saturday!We booked this cruise while on board. We are Jill(DW), Russell (DH), and Austin (DS-19). We are doing second seating, and right now we are in room 5015. I can not wait to sail the Fantasy again!

That is so cool. Welcome to our group. We have a 19 year old dd she will be twenty next month and will turn 21 two weeks before our cruise! She acts like we are disney crazy but she is a disney freak too! She is just at the too cool for mickey stage. Did your son meet anyone on the last cruise? Too old for the kid clubs but too young for the night clubs. I'm sure he had a great time too. Glad to have you join the boards.

Yay, more DIS cruisers! Welcome! Looking forward to getting to know everyone a little better before the cruise.

Key West was a great trip with lots of laughter and stories to share . Lynsey, Jason and Kaitlyn were on the last cruise. They were on deck 2 too, but on the other side of the ship. Kaitlyn and JorDan's Graysen are kind of an "item" . And yes, they are set to sail in May 2014 with all of us .

Ok, just booked this morning. I have been waiting for the school calendar to come out and it still has not. I did find out when graduation was.
It will be me Deanna(47), Brad(51), Ryan(18), and Blake(16). We are from Cabot, Ar.

Dining main
celebration high school graduation
Disney cruise: this will be our fourth Magic 6/2009, Wonder 3/2010, Magic 10/2012

I love Disney and everyone else humors me.

 

[nursegirl]

We are WDW/DVC and runDisney veterans, but have just decided to take our first Disney cruise next May - so excited!!

Me (39) DH (37) DS (9) DS (5) from Macon, GA - celebrating end of school. First seating - and not sure about Fish Extenders (is that what they are called?!) sounds really fun, but have NO idea what they are, how to find one, and what they do?! Looking forward to finding out!!

Thanks in advance for all the help and advice for us first timers/newbs!

Hi! And thanks for the warm welcome. I have never participated in a meet before.

Welcome! I am green with envy! I have to wait for a full year plus until our next trip. I hope you get a great deal! And welcome to the boards!

Thanks! We are super excited for this trip with just DH and I and it is approaching quickly
We are really hoping to be able to cancel our
8C and rebook connecting 11Bs so that our growing DSs will have more room.

Our last cruise was DH and my 25th wedding anniversary, so we went by ourselves. Both of my sons love Disney cruises. Although, they really enjoyed the Vibe and all the friends they made. Last year my DS, that was 18 on the cruise, still did have a good time. He met up with the 18-21 group and did some activities with them. He likes us, so he spent a lot of time with us...lol We cruised in June, so he had just graduated from high school and had not been a part of the college scene yet. He would have preferred being in the Vibe. We were not sure if DS (19- who will be 20 at time of sailing) would want to go on this May 24th cruise, but we got a resounding YES! The other DS(24) is a not sure at this point.

I saw your post on the boards, so glad you took the plunge!!

 

[ALMinVA]

I saw your post on the boards, so glad you took the plunge!!

How am I ever going to get any work done or focus on anything for the next 12 months ????

Thank you! When we sailed that Magic in 2011 I had no clue about the Disboards - just think how MUCH I have to learn!
No time to waste...FE's or no FE's?
so many questions, so much planning....so little time? ha ha!!!

Ha Ha...I can't stay off of these boards! Luckily DH and I have a short cruise booked on the Dream May 30th so I am focused on it right now but I know as soon as I get back I will be obsessing about this cruise.

Hmmm.....we are undecided about FE's also. I know we still have time to decide but right now I am leaning more towards not participating simply because I have read trip reports where it has been sooo time consuming. But who knows?...

I am really excited about the ports on this cruise. We have already decided which port adventures we want to do. I'm obsessed, I know. I can't wait for DCL to list the port adventures for Jamaica. Can't wait to sail on the Fantasy.

Hi all! Over the last several months I've joined several groups on Facebook for Disney cruises and Fish Extender ideas (I'm a little obsessed with all things Disney!). Someone started a new group for cruise meets, so I thought I would start a group for us. My experience with my other cruise group has taught me that some like Facebook, and some do not. I hope no one is upset that I started the group, but I think it's an additional way to get to know our future cruise mates. I hope if you have a Facebook account, you will join me over there too...here's the link. https://www.facebook.com/groups/117500518453381/

 

[ALMinVA]

is it searchable? Is there a name its under?

ETA i see the link now

It should be searchable, it's a closed group, but not secret. And I gave it the same name as our name here...The Disney Fantasy, (Bob) Marley and Me on the FANTASTICAL VOYAGE! Since I just meant it to be an extension of this group, I kept the same name.

 

[mrssmiddy]

Hi! I know we still have a lot of time to wait, but is someone putting together the FE list? I see the space reserved for the FE list, and a lot of people have said they want to be on it, but I don't actually see a list anywhere. Am I just missing it? Or was it on the old thread before this one got started? Thanks!

Welcome and Congrats to you! Which day are you getting married? DH and I are celebrating 15 years on the 29th
Also - we aren't too far away from you - we are in Alexandria.
I was contemplating a VR because we did one at 5 and 10.
Are you going to get married on the ship or on the beach?
