10/6/2011 Disney Dream

[OKW Lover]

We're on board! It will be Val and myself (Jeff) in a cat 5A. It will be our 4th DCL cruise; a 7 night Eastern Caribbean in 2001; PodCast Cruise 1.0; and PodCast Cruise 2.0. We've also cruised on RCCL, Carnival, Norwegian, and Princess.

We're doing this along with several days at WDW for Food & Wine. Haven't decided yet if we are doing F&W before or after the cruise.

Welcome aboard Jeff. Kind of a quiet bunch. Maybe closer to cruise it will get hopping a little more!

Guys I just wanted to post that we are not going to be on this cruise any more We decided to cancel.

My brother in law and sister in law have never been to Disney with their 5 kids and we have decided to do a really big Disney family vacation in August instead. We are bummed to not be on the Dream in 2011 but we are so excited for our kids to be able to share their love of WDW with their cousins!

Enjoy and have a MAGICAL time!!!!

Doesn't seem to be a lot going on, does there. We're looking forward to doing some of the Food & Wine Festival before the cruise.

Add us to the fun!

My mom and I are going to check out the new boat.
We have been on the Wonder and Magic before. When we saw the pictures of the new ship we just had to book a cruise.

We're going!!! It will be me (Kristi), my DH David, and our DS 3 (4 on the cruise), Taylor. We also have a 9 month old DS, Riley, but he will be stating with the grandparents. I hate leaving him but I know we can do so much with Taylor if he doesn't come. And this trip is going to be Taylor's birthday present in May. We spent 4 days at WDW last October and he is obsessed with all things Disney. Everytime he sees the commercial for the cruise, he says that he wants to go there. I can hardly wait to tell him! This will be our first DCL cruise. DH and I went on a 7 night RCCL for our honeymoon. I am looking forward to getting to know the others on this cruise! And I would love to do fish extenders if everyone else wants to!

Just decided we would rather be at WDW for Food & Wine this weekend so we've changed our cruise to Labor Day instead. Sorry we are going to miss you.

My dear friends,

I booked the 10/06 3-night cruise yesterday (Friday 1/28) for myself and my best friend. Neither of us has ever been on a DCL cruise and I have never been on a cruise at all. My friend has been on several (including one on the QE1 back in the 60's). I would appreciate any tips, tricks and suggestions for shore excursions. I know WDW like the back of my hand but I'm a fish out of water (pardon the pun) when it comes to DCL. I'm told we are in Room 7191, category 11B.

Luv 'n' Stuff

We are doing the 4 night after this one! Can't wait!

We are doing the 4 night BEFORE this one. I wish we could do the 3 day first and then the 4 day, but the other way around worked out for the kids fall break.
Sorry to see a couple of you leave, but at least you are both still doing Disney vacations! Have fun!
Welcome to the new and first time cruisers! We are doing a back to back cruise, so this will be my families 4th and 5th Disney cruise. We have also cruised Carnival and RCCL....we wont go back, it's DCL for us! If you have any questions feel free to post away, I will answer what I can, and if I can't I'm sure someone here will be able to.

I am totally confused as to who is on this cruise now . Want to send me a pm and I will start a list?

 

[scrapbookmomma74]

Looks like we'll be joining this 3 night party!

We're booked for 2012, but like many of us, couldn't WAIT that long to see the new ship!

We're gonna try concierge level this time, since we're celebrating our 2nd anniversary, and we decided to bring the kids, too! I so can't wait!

Between a few PM's and going through the past posts I think this is up to date. So far we are a small quiet group

We will be joining you on this cruise. It will be me, DH, DD(9) & DS(6). We are doing B2B with the 10/9 sailing after this one. It will be our first B2B, so I'm interested to see how it goes. We love Disney cruises! Can't wait!!

I will try and keep the list updated. Send me a pm if I need to change anything.

DH and I are also doing the B2B after this one! Glad to see someone else is doing the same B2B as us!!!!

We are officially on this cruise! Doing b2b on the 4 night prior to this cruise too. Never have done a b2b before, so it looks like there is going to be quite a lot of us doing it. It never hurts to visit CC twice and we haven't been to Nassau before. Looking forward to these two cruises.
