Hi Snowwhite 86, We are sailing with our 2 daughters. They will be 10 1/2 and 13 when we cruise. Are your two 11 and 14 now or on the cruise.

 

[snowwhite86]

They will be 151/2 and just turned 12 when we cruise. It would be great if they could get together. My 14 year old is alittle shy and isn't sure if she'll enjoy the group activities, but I think she'll do better if she knew someone.

Hi Surfergirl and Snowwhite 86, we too will be on the October 9th cruise . I also have a daughter that is going to be 10 1/2 when we go. I also have a 4 year old. It would be great if they could all get together.

This will be our third cruise and I can't wait!

Been a while since I posted, I've been in and out of my mind getting ready for the mousefest events at WDW.

As far as renting a boat at stingray city is concerned, my dad's wife can't swim so we'd need to make sure she could still be accomodated. I'm sure she could. Also, we'd definitely think that we'd get a better deal with more people on a boat and probably a better boat too, but I'd definitely be open to anyone's recommendations. I think it would be a better and more fun trip in one small boat. Our only personal requirement is that we get back for afternoon tea on the island, which shouldn't be a problem.

Will check with Gaby.... But I think she wants to Horseback ride there since U both told her how great it was.. LOL

Since the euro has stablised time to pay the cruise.. save about 500 euros.. Jeff thanks for the advice....

Hi everyone,
Just booked Oct 9th 7 nt western. This will be our 2nd Disney cruise. Did Wonder 4 nt this Oct and liked it so much we have decided to do 7 nts. My name is Wayne my wife is Karen and our 9 (10 in Oct) year old son is Mathew. We come from UK and try to spend around 5 or 6 weeks a year in Orlando. Think that covers everything.

Snowwhite86:

We will be on the Oct 9th cruise. We have 4 kids including DD13 on 10/8/04 and DD15 (when we cruise). We will be in rooms 7507 and 7505. (cat10s) My DD15 is also very shy, but would love to make some internet friends before we cruise again. We cruised on the Wonder this past Oct and she was kind of lost until the last day when she met up with another teen DIS member and then she had a blast.

This thread was moving too far down the list, so I am taking this opportunity for a bump. Since I normally don't like shameless bumps, I will also pose a question.


Anyone with DD in either the 8-9 year range or the 5-7 year range? Last cruise, DD's were both in the 5-7 club, which made it very comfortable for them to go since they automatically knew each other. They also met fellow dis'r's DD6 .

Just the fact they knew someone made it very easy for them to go to the club. Once there, they had a great time. Ironically, they wouldn't necessarily be playing with each other or the other girl once there, they just needed something to help get them into the club.

Thanks.

Jeff,
the water in Stingray City is just hip-deep and you stay within 10 yards of the boat. At the other two locations the water is deeper, about 10 feet, but perhaps she could float around with a buoyancy vest - or just stay on the boat.

We're booked!!! I just talked with the TA and we are confirmed on this cruise for a category 6, cabin #6070. It will be myself (Mom), DH, and DDs 7 & 11 (at time of cruise). The DDs would love to get acquainted virtually with other cruisers their age before the cruise. Please PM me if your children are interested in this. At this point, we're thinking of the following excursions:

Key West - deep-sea fishing for DH, general hanging out/touring for us girls
Cozumel - Tulum Ruins (a must do for DD11, who is very in to archaeology!)
Grand Cayman - Stingray City and Island Tour
Castaway Cay - relaxation!

We are beyond excited about this cruise and cannot wait - we're only a few weeks from the 9 month-mark!

Welcome Il-gander!!

My DD will be 10 1/2 when we cruise and is looking to get to know others her age before we go. We are in cabin 6118, not too far from you. I will pm you soon.
