August 16 2009 4 night Wonder, Cruise-O-Maniac

[Max1*]

I am a 4th time Disney Cruiser. This page is so great. My husband booked this vacation as a Christmas present for our family. I have two little girls on will be almost 7 and the other just 2 when we disembark. We right now have late seating because we booked late but are on the wait list for early dinner. I cannot remember my room number right now as I am at work but I'm pretty sure it's category 8. We are also headed to Disney for 5 day's after. Hope to see some of you there!

With my oldest son ready to start his freshman year in August at Washington State University, we were really stressed to make this cruise work. After much thought and deliberation, we decided to cancel and rebook at a later time when the dates work for all of us! Happy cruising to all of you and enjoy!!

Hello Everyone!!

Welcome aboard our Cruise thread Karen. I'm Mandy, I'm from the UK and I'll be travelling with my hubby Paul and 2 DD's Kerry and Becky (who will be 18 & 16 when we Cruise)

Right now, posting photos, here goes ..

First download your photos onto your computer. Then you need to find somewhere to host your photos. I use photobucket.com. You need to register, then you can start downloading your photos onto there

Basically, first you choose the size of your pictures (I use 640 x 480 as they're not too big), you click browse and the file on your computer will come up. Choose the file you wish to download and press open, then upload on photobucket and it with upload it (sorry this is very longwinded)

Once you photo is uploaded, copy the IMG Code and paste it on here, then hopefully it will appear

I hope that helps, and I look forward to seeing your picture

Mandy

Hi there! My DD (7) will be glad that she will have a friend her age on the cruise. We have late seating, too and are on the waitlist for early. We are also in a Cat 8 and heading to WDW for 5 days after!!


Okay, friends...are we planning a Fish Extender Swap and Dis Meet?? We are on board (literally, he he)! I would also be happy to get one organized, if not!

I love your photo, did you stay at The Poly ? If you did, then you're so lucky, I would love to stay there. We usually stay at the Pop Century, but have visited The Poly for breakfast with Lilo & Stitch. It's a beautiful resort

We haven't mentioned Meets or Fish Extender Exchanges yet, but I would love to take part in both. We did the FE exchange last Summer, and it was lots of fun

Unfortunately, we were just dining at the Poly. Our friends brought us to the point to show us where they got married (we met them after they were married a few years).

We are DVC members, so we tend to stay at the DVC resorts, but I would love to stay at the Poly sometime, too!

I'm glad to hear there may be some interest in the FE exchange and maybe a meet!

We are trying to decide (I know there is still time ) on what to do when the ship arrives in Nassau. My DD will be 7 then, but she is not fond of the big rides, so I wonder if Atlantis would be fun for her. What have you guys enjoyed in Nassau?

Hi Karen. We're not big fans of Nassau. The first time, we walked into the town and we hated being harrassed by people asking us if we wanted taxis or getting our DD's hair braided. So for the last few trips we have just got off the ship to take photos in the port, and then we've taken advantage of a quiet ship

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend

Hi Karen, my daughter Maxine will almost be 7 when we cruise we'd love to meet up with another little girl her age!

 

[mandymouse]

Has anyone else got any piccies to share ?

 

[Max1*]

I don't have any pics from our last cruise and it look like I have to get my post count up to post pics from Disney last year so I'll work on it!

Same here kinda. We love Atlantis when we went but the cost to go there was not worth it but they didn't have the water park then either so IDK now. We are also going to take advantage of a quiet ship this time since we've been to Atlantis.
