Hi Scrapbookmomma. Welcome to the thread! You are so lucky, 2 trips on the Dream! Looks like you'll be able to give us the inside scoop about the ship. Can't wait to hear about your October trip!

Super excited folks!!!!

Weavers1995...New Market? Cool! We also live in Frederick County...in Jefferson. We're practically neighbors! Maybe we can get together sometime pre-cruise!

Hello....Myself and my family will be on the Cruise next year. I have 2 DD that will be 7 and 5 and of course the DW. We took our first cruise last year in OCT on the Wonder and had a blast. We cant wait to go next year....

 

[moobear67]

Welcome K2sss! My sister has DDs around your DD's ages. She will be on the cruise as well. (I need to get her to join our roll call!)

Hi Everyone!

We are taking this cruise too! Myself, my DH, and two kids, DS (10) and DD (15), who will be 11 and 17 when we sail. Sounds like we are getting a pretty good group considering how much time we still have until sail date.

We have only taken one Disney cruise and LOVED it!! We can't wait to go back and the Dream looks amazing! Even with it so far away, I am just excited to be booked and know that we will be taking another trip. I think half the fun is in the planning and anticipation.

welcome k2sss and travelseeker!

I too am surprised this early we have a good sized group

 

[travelseeker]

Thanks for the welcome, Seabasealpha.

It sounds like you and your family are avid Disney cruisers. When we last went, my kids were 5 and 11, and had so much fun. I was worried that I had waited too long to take our next trip, but it sounds like there will be a lot of teens and tweens on this trip.

Will this be your and your sister's first Disney cruise in the "adult" category? Disney does such a great job at all ages. It's hard to imagine not having a fabulous time.

Hi Travelseeker! Glad to see you on this board, too! (For the rest of you out there, Travelseeker and I met on another board!). Just 1 year, 4 1/2 months to go!

Hi Moobear67. Yes, I followed your lead and found this thread . Seems like a great group already!

 

[seabasealpha]

hi travelseeker,
yes this will be our first as "adults" our last was in 2007, i have no doubt that we will have just as much fun.

as far as being avid cruisers go, we are a DVC family and one of the major selling points for us, was the ability to cruise every couple years using the banking system if we wanted to. We have been going to the parks the last couple years, so we cannot wait to cruise again!

scrapbookmomma74....when were you on the magic in january? We did the Eastern jan. 15-22...were you on with us????

So sorry that I didn't get back to you...I haven't been on this board in awhile (so preoccupied with my July WDW trip and our October Dream cruise).

ANYHOW, my dd's will be 12 and almost 9 (like 2 weeks shy) on this cruise. And, we were on the Jan. 8-15, 2011 cruise on the Magic, so we missed you by a week. What cabin were you in? We had 6610 and 6608.

Can't wait to get to know everyone here! I'm definitely IN for a fish extender exchange!

PS, weavers...
We did the Jan. 16-23, 2010 Eastern on the Magic. Did you enjoy that itinerary? We prefer the Western, although being on ANY cruise in January is better than being in Chicago! lol

Second Disney Cruise. We did 7 night Eastern last Nov, and rebooked on board for this one. Really looking forward to two nights on CC.

Kids will be 10 and 6. Oldest actually will turn 11 the day we disembark.
