Am I really the only one??

Thinking about booking, but confused about dates...these 3 days normally leave on Thursdays, I think this one leaves on a Wedneday, is this correct, so is it Wed-Sat the 26th?

 

[jenny105]

Nope, it leaves on Thursday the 24th and returns that Sunday, the morning of the 27th.

 

[petunia]

sorry, it was the 2008 one that left on wed, thanks

 

[jenny105]

lol no worries. I actually did the same thing at first and was like 'wait, I know it was right when I booked it' before I caught my mistake!

 

[petunia]

Yay! I booked

 

[jenny105]

Awesome! Let the countdown begin! I've been on cruises before but never sailed with DCL. I'm super excited! Now we just need a few more DISers

Who's going with you?

 

[petunia]

It will be dh, 4 kiddos and I and you?

 

[jenny105]

As of right now, just me and my boyfriend! One of my cousins is looking into going to maybe it'll turn into a family trip.

 

[FutureDis]

We've booked this cruise as part of our land and sea package! It will be me, my husband, and our just turned 3 year old son (he'll be turning 3 while we are on our land portion) We are so excited! I'm sure there will be many more people here when we are closer to our time. Anyone interested in doing some fish extender gift exchanges?

Can't wait everyone!!

 

[jenny105]

If you can explain to me what that is, I'd appreciate it. DCL is brand new to me!

I also booked the land & sea package. 20th-24th at POR! Never stayed before!

Hi Jenny!! I think we will be staying at POFQ!

Here is a great thread about fish extenders (FE). Basically, make a fish extender (or something that has pockets.. more info in the post link below) and who ever wants to participate leaves little gifts as a gift exchange. Doesn't have to be anything major, just a little "fun" for everyone!

We are going on that cruise as part of our 7 day land & sea Honeymoon we are so excited. I have been on the cruise before but my fiance has never been on a cruise and really hasn't been to disney world. We are looking forward to staying at the polynesian. I have stayed at POFQ it was great it is nice and relaxing the gardens around the rooms are great.

Thanks for the link! I would definitely like to do this. It seems like fun! I'm going to search for more links so I can find more information and get some ideas going It's funny because I have a trip coming up in a couple of weeks but almost all of my attention has been focused on the cruise!

Awesome! Neither my boyfriend or I have been on the cruise but have made plenty of trips to the world together. You're soon-to-be husband is in for a treat! You have to introduce him to the obsession that is WDW!

I've never stayed at the Poly but I've gone walking around the grounds. It's gorgeous!

 

[disney honeymooners]

I have been to disney about 10-12 times and it is one of my favorite places to go and the cruise is amazing so i am really looking forward to him doing all this for the first time. This will be my first time staying at the poly i have walked around it before and i thought it was beautiful.

 

[jenny105]

I see you've made a banner!

 

[FutureDis]

Yeah!! Can't wait! Got to love a countdown banner that has less than a year on it!

 

[disney honeymooners]

oh yes the smaller the number of months the happier i get. yeah i made a banner but the first time i tried to post it in my signature i posted the wrong version so all that showed up was the website.

 

[jenny105]

I made mine when I first booked and it said 1 year and 2 days. I'm glad it's dropped to months now. 10 1/2 months to go!

Funny, I should be looking forward more to my trip that's less than two weeks away but I'm more excited about this one!!
