What the heck is a "Passporter"? Am I missing something? (Newbie...be kind!)

They make a series of AWESOME Disney guides (in addition to some guides for other places but do they really matter? )

The Passporter is the ULTIMATE guide to all things Disney. It's a "what's what" of everything there is to see and do, whether it's in the parks to make each day Magical, or whether it's on the sea to sail with Mickey. The Passporter is what a lot of people plan their entire vacations with. Me personally, I rely on the PassDISboards. Everything you need is here somewhere on the DISboards.

Well it is time to sign off for awhile as we try to watch some of the recorded episodes of Heroes. That is unless the alarm goes off.

Good night/morning everyone!

It is THE BEST book I have ever read !!! It tells ALL about the DCL and there are others as well.. WDW... DL... etc.. It isn't officially from Disney though but it is Packed Full of information..

I was impatient.. I bought mine from the book store because I could wait for it to be delivered, so I paid a little extra.. But it is addictive

Holy crap! More stuff to obsess about? I LOVE IT!

I have a total of umm.. 25 "build a bears".. Well, 1 is a Philly Phantic, 1 is a mini Mets bear given out for Free at a game, 1 is a Red Philadelphia Statium Bear and 1 is a Brown Philadelphia Statium bear, 1 Rabbit, 1 Cow, 1 Turtle, 1 Dinosaur, 1 Cheddah.. Soon to add 1 Polar Bear..

There is an Official BAB in the Philly Baseball Statium.. so those are legit BABs as well

I have a NJ Devil outfit on one, and a NY Mets outfit on one, One is a Turkey right now, a Pirate, a Bee, and the rest are all in regular clothes or fancy dresses..

10 of them are moving to Florida when DH drives down for Thanksgiving.. But, that leaves me room for New ones!!

The kids have about 4 build a bears and a few Vermont Teddy bears. I have 5 Vermont bears (including bride and groom which were the centerpiece of our wedding, and a pregnancy bear from DH). I also have a hugh collection of Pooh bears. Most dressed in their Halloween finest.

Hi, I'm new to this board, will be crusin on Dec 8. It will be my hubby and I, and 5 children ages 8 - 22. Five of us went for a 4 day last year and had a great time, I can't wait to go again this time with the whole family.

You guys are a wealth of information, thanks!

Hi !!
Jump right in and join the party!!!

 

[helloemi]

Whew........ Don't Scare me like that...

We have Palo for day 3..

I couldn't stay away! We are day 5 so i was glad to see i get to dress up twice. Personally i would much rather be in formal wear than cruise casual. I KNOW how to be formal...Im just afraid of being too casual the other days.

Welcome Jill! Everyone else has already answered your questions, but I wanted to be sure and welcome you We just joined this "crazy crew" a couple weeks ago - kind of a spur of the moment decision when Disney offered some GREAT Florida resident rates

Christmas at WDW is always magical - I'm sure the ship and CC are no exception

I too just joined - bought my tickets last week at the Fl resident rates. A hubby and 5 kids, with one in a wheelchair we had to get 3 rooms to stay close together. Anyway, we got a great rate, and are so excited.

To answer the qustion about Christmas things, the 4 day cruise last year had a Christmas concert on the staircase and it was so beautiful. Then another night Mrs. Clause read "the night before Christmas) to the children, all of them sitting on the floor bright eyed and full of wonder is was so magical. I have only been on the cruise once (last Christmas) and I can't amagine the cruise without the Christmas magic.

It looks like all that's left on our sailing is cat 8?

...the plot thickens...

 

[AmberDaClown]

So helloemi, we are a family with a young child with late seating. What time will we eat? 8pm? What will our rotation be?

Where did all the rooms go? I may have to add DD(18) to my mom's room and there may not be room for her. She still doesn't know if she can take her exams early.

How many people are in your mom's room now? You could always add her as a 3rd or 4th (as long as there aren't 4 people in the room right now)

There are only two, but she booked one of the cat 12 rooms. I am afraid some only sleep two.

The Disney Cruise Line website says Cat 12 sleeps 3! You are in luck! (Although, if you have even MORE luck, you'll be upgraded AND everyone can come!!!)
