Is anyone staying at the Radisson the night before? We are think about in and parking the car there instead of at the port.

Just have a look at The List - It's all on it

What about edeible underwear, Ladies? :rotfl2:

Or take G-strings. The 7 you need for a cruise fit in a cigarette box :rotfl2:

Why would you need edible underwear? They may get you for bringing food on board :rotfl2:

Anyway, isn't there enough food on the ship already?

Have you thought about forgetting the underwear and just going commando!

Hi all,
Another newbie here, although I have been lurking for 2 or 3 months. This will be Disney #5 for us, 3 Magic and 2 Wonder (one without the kids!). Cruising with my DW and 2 DDs along with boyfriend/soon to be fiance I think, (let's not go there!)

Just a few thoughts for Drknight:

Tips: The best one I have and you may have seen already, get one(or 2) of those plastic shoe hangers for the bathroom door! I think we got ours at K-Mart. They are great for keeping all that bathroom stuff organized. The more people in the room, the more important this tip is!

Coolers: Please note that this is coming from a beer-aholic!, get one of those soft coolers if it is drinks you are concerned about. They will sell you small yellow DCL ones on the ship if you buy a six-pack but I usually bring the type you get with a Coors-Lite promotion. (36 pack in a soft-side cooler.) Anyway, they fold up and fit in your luggage nice and you can get ice all week on deck 9. Often, the room stewards will help out as well! When you see the guy filling his yellow DCL cooler with ice up there, it's me! (It's nice for filling the bigger cooler.)

By the way, we've also been on the Norwegian Dawn out of NY a couple times (high marks), we're going on the Spirit the day after tomorrow(Yahoo!), Rccl Voyager, good but nothing to write home about, and Carnival Miracle (Yuck, but it was an early voyage-maybe too new). Our first cruise was on the Big Red Boat long ago, things have improved dramatically since then!

Hey PADisneyFan, we are in the Scranton area not too far north of you. Maybe we can get together some day.

That would be a problem.......I don't smoke! :rotfl2:

Welcome MrBill60!!! I look forward to meeting you and learning more about you and your family!

jeanniec · Jul 1, 2006

Bump! There is another 10/14 thread just started today. Will invite them over here.

Jean

mommywa · Jul 1, 2006

That was me, thank you Jean :thumbsup2

. We are all very excited. This will be our first cruise. It is my graduation gift to myself :goodvibes

. Lets see, it will be me 33, husband 32, DD 10, DS 5, DS 1, MIL and FIL. We are on Deck 6 somewhere, I cant remember the room numbers. We had to switch rooms around a little to fit MIL and FIL in. I am sure my children would love to make new friends. As would we.
How did Cruisetoberfest get started? I guess that is all I can think of, for now anyway :teeth:

.
Thank you again Jean,
Ashley

Me again, I am trying to put a picture of my kids at the bottom of my posts, but cant seem to figure it out. Anyone know how to do this?
Thank you,
Ashley :confused3

Hi Ashley and family! We are also on deck 6. It will be me(36), DH (46), DD(7), DS(5), and DD(2). We have connecting cabins to give us some more space. This will be our 5th cruise with Disney, our FIRST cruisetoberfest!!

These people on this thread are GREAT :cool1:

! You will get A LOT of super information from them! I can't wait for this cruise!

Viking · Jul 2, 2006

Welcome to all the newbies :wave2:

mommywa · Jul 2, 2006

Thank you for the welcome!! :wave2:

Wildernessgirl, we originally had rooms next to each other, but when we invited the inlaws we didnt realize not all cat 11 rooms fit 4. I wanted them to go so I agreed to be a distance away.We were in 6137 and 6139, now were in 6139 and 6109. Not very far from each other. We are on the waiting list for joining rooms. :thumbsup2

I am also sooo excited for this cruise. My DH and I are on the computer all of the time looking at excursions and such. Its actually kind of ridiculous. Our kids arent even as neurotic :blush:

.
Well thank you again, I am glad to be part of this years Cruisetoberfest.

Welcome Ashley and family....we're so glad to have you join us! We're on Deck 7 in a NV, but our friends will be in 6140 (also NV) which I believe is right across from you. I look forward to meeting all of you in October!

WDWCrazzyCunninghams · Jul 3, 2006

Welcome to our new friends and hello to our old!
It's time to get back to page one where it's not so cold!
Being at the top of page one, that's where it's hot!
And we can work on trip planning, excursions and what not!

Hello everyone. It has been a long time since I have posted and it looks like I have a lot of reading to do. There has been alot going on here for us and it is now time to focus on the cruise. :cool1:

We are looking forward to booking our Palo reservations for brunch and dinner at the 90 day mark. I cannot believe that we are almost there. Mark and I are going to try and get the brunch for the Monday and dinner for the Thursday. I had requested (no guarantee) to have the same dinner rotation as we did last cruise (LAP) as we really enjoyed Lumieres.

I wish all a Happy Birthday to our neighbours of the south.

Cheers,
Michele -- Mark -- Nicole (10)

Looking forward to meeting everyone in the fall.
