11/11/10 3 night Wonder!

[kerickson]

Wow, 15 nights, that's wonderful! Our family has 1 night at SSR before. Some of us will be in a Treehouse, and the other couple in a studio.

JSMom2, that's DH's "problem" very much out of vacation time.

We are currently at the Dolphin for 2 nights then SSR for 3 nights before we set sail. I'm hoping to change to BLT for the 3 nights, only because we've never been to WDW and with 6 and 4 yr olds expect to spend lots of time at MK!

Yesterday was my DD's 6th b-day and she reminded me that we are going on the Mickey boat again for Daddy's b-day (we were on a 7nt for his 40th last year) My DS said he wanted to go on the Mickey boat for his birthday too in March! Can't swing that but we do have a DLR trip planned in April. He'll have to get his Mickey b-day fix then! Really looking forward to being back on he boat and surrounded by all the magic!

Well, well, well, if it isn't the UK travelers! We just may see you on this cruise. Still debating about the Freedom or this one. We will definitely see you in WDW though!

This is our first cruise, Me, DH, DD11, DD8 and DS5!! It sounds like it's going to be so FUN!! We can't wait! My DH and I had our 1st WDW trip a year ago today, I can't believe it's been a year! We just got back from the kids' first visit to WDW 2 weeks ago, and I'm now trying to plan this trip. We will be going to WDW, Bay Lake Tower, after the cruise until the 19th. I didn't do much of the planning on the last trips, so I need help getting this all planned out. This board is great!

Welcome! I love the fact that there are quite a few kids my DDs age! We're staying at BLT this May, and I can't wait!

I'm glad there are lots of kids, just hope more in the 8yr range join, or my DD8 will drive her 11yr sis crazy if she tags along very much.
I can't wait to hear about your May BLT stay. We spent the extra points to book a 2-bedroom because after seeing the cruise cat 4 family room on line, it looks like it will be tight. I figure we will need to spread out after the cruise. Do they ever do a free up grade from cat 4 to a suite?

My DD is 8, she turns 9 the week after the cruise. We are doing 4 nightes at CBR (pirate room) pre-cuise and 6 nights WL post cruise

Look what the Fedex guy just delivered

Nice way to cheer up an otherwise dull day

I got mine today

I got mine today

Curious. My travel agent says docs aren't sent until after final payment made, which isn't due for a while. Did you guys prepay or are these something different?

 

[Neoshoegal]

those are not the full cruise docs, just confirmation of booking but in a really nice way

 

[tiggerlover2]

Yay! We are booked on this cruise too. No kids, just my DH and myself for now. Still hoping for my DB & DSIL and DN and family to join us. I love that Mouse!

Since John was laid off, we are going to PLAY!!! I'm seriously back on track to book this cruise. I'll let you know when the deed is done! I'm just a naughty Tink!

WOOOHOOO!!!
(about you guys joining, not about John being laid off)

We're really looking forward to this. Our countdown began at a year and a half, so it's great to see it so close.

Our other DS, not going on cruise, is getting married in New Orleans the weekend before Thanksgiving. DSis is still undecided as to whether she will be joining us. I hope she/they do.

So far, DS, DDiL, with our 3 DGC, ages 5, 6 and 7 are coming with us for sure.

I'm looking forward to meeting you!

We'll be there too. Every four years my Mom, sisters and our families go to Disney World for a week. This time we are spending half a week in Disney and then the rest on the cruise. We can't wait! We'll be traveling with a bunch of kids (Girls: 14,13, 8, 5 and 5 and Boys: 10, 7, and 5).

I look forward to getting to know all of you more now and on the cruise!

Welcome!
We are going to WDW after our cruise. It seems like most families like to end with the cruise, but we have a big family wedding right before our cruise.
I also see you will be going to see Harry Potter soon! Please let me know how you liked it. I don't think we are going to try to squeeze it in on our trip in Nov, but maybe next time.

 

[SharonLowe]

Wow, seems like lots of kids, esp girls, my DD's age - 12. Would love to arrange a meet-up somewhere. Any ideas? This is our first Disney cruise (first cruise too) so not sure where/when is best.

Also, is anyone planning to do Fish Extenders? Starting to think about it and figuring gifts we can do.
