6-17-2011 Dream Cruise

[Theta]

Hi all!

We are onboard this cruise too! Looking forward to the new ship and getting to know everyone. It is me (46) DH (49) and DS (14) and DD (12). I would love for my kids to get together with other Dis kids. It is so nice for them to have a friend in the camps. PM me if you would like to try and get the kids together to talk a little beforehand. We did this once before and it worked out great. The parents had a great time too! We met for drinks either before or after dinner almost every night.

I would also like to be included in the FE!

Thanks!!! So excited!!!
Colleen

Good morning!

We are back to work and school this morning after a fun Spring Break!

If you haven't had a chance to PM me your Fish Extender info, please do so asap. I will send an email out to you all this week with the spread sheet attached. That way we can start to have an idea of how many people are participating.

Do you all think we should have a cut off date to sign up? How does that work? I've never done this before.

Got a ton to do today...Hope everyone has a great one!

Should we pick a meeting place for those families who would like to meet up..I was thinking it might be a great way for the kids to meet a buddy or 2 to hang out with..

I purchased ours on December 25 & 30, 2010. On the way there it was $94 (non-stop) on the way back $72 (non-stop) for 4 people on AirTran.

The prices are outrageous!!

Anybody know what excursions they plan on doing?

Anybody know what excursions they plan on doing?

Lets See....

In Nassau, we will be doing the Harbor Cruise, mostly because it was cheaper and started early in the morning. This will allow us to get up early, get some breakfast, then do the excursion. After that get back for some lunch and try to attempt the water coaster

At Castaway Cay, we are only renting a tube and doing the bike ride. Just wanted to relax a bit

Anybody else??

I booked a room at Comfort Suites to do the day at Atlantis. I am not sure if I will keep it though.

Now I'm kinda considering staying on the boat and enjoying the day..

 

[mom2reese]

Anybody know what excursions they plan on doing?

At Nassau we are either going to do either the Astrada Gardens or just the Atlantis Aquarium...not the whole park just the Aquarium.

The I just want to have a beach day at CC. May snorkel.

I'm soooooooooooo ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those are our 2 choices..Not sure which one 2 pick..I'm just wondering how warm it will be..I dont know if I want to get off the boat or stay and enjoy the sun

We are leaning toward the aquarium. That's what dd wants to do right now anyway...she's likely to change her mind! It's gonna be HOT I'm sure. But I'm ready for summer.

 

[mom2reese]

I just emailed out the fish extender list in an excel spreadsheet format. I didn't have a couple of email addresses. Send me a pm with your email address and I'll send it to ya! Thanks

I stayed up til midnight last night and was able to get Brunch at Palo and a massage scheduled! I am so relieved to have that done and now I can just focus on being excited to get on the ship. We debated the sealion encounter in Nassau but have decided to just stay and enjoy the ship. We may walk around the port and let the girls get the jewelry freebies. Plus, it gives me a reason to have to schedule another cruise.
