August 16, 2011, Disney Dream - Part 2

[TiggerAllie]

What category did you cancel and what category did you book. Oceanview, inside, balcony?

We didn't actually cancel--we just switched rooms within the same category (5A/balcony). Your price changes to the current price if you switch categories. I only see the 5's (balcony) as available for our cruise.

Inquiring minds need to know. I have a note on my ressie that I want/need adjoining cabins. Where are you looking up this info?

Do you mean adjoining (next door) or connecting (has a door inside the rooms that connects)? On the Dream stateroom map, you can see which rooms connect by the little < symbol between them (and they have arrows pointing at each other next to the room number). Do you have room numbers yet? If so you can check on the deck plan:

I always switch that terminology. I mean connecting. Ours are across the hall from each other. I REALLY want connecting. Just trying to figure out how you found out availability to switch your cabin(s).

Well, I could only do it because our category (5A) is still available on the website. If yours is and it's not guarantee-only, you can see what else is available.

I just go to the find a cruise (as if I am going to make a new ressie), select the date and category, then hit "change" by the stateroom type and "select" stateroom--that shows me some of the options still available, and you can type other numbers into the "choose your stateroom" box and see additional ones. (If you try this with category 5A you'll see what I mean. I think only 5A, 5B, 5C, and maybe 5D and 5E are there to do this.

What category are your rooms?

Good Morning Everyone! I am SO happy it is the weekend because I totally need a couple of days off of work!

Hopefully Kristin and Frank are enjoying their weekends! I have heard from Kristin....she sent me a photo of the Welcome to Disney arch!

Dizney73 - Have a great trip! You have to come back and share pictures so that we can all dream of our summer trips!

Sounds like there are going to be a lot of people at VB pre-cruise. We had wanted to try it out but with all our vacation changes and work plans, it just did not work out. I do hope to visit there some time though.

Laura - I was SO HAPPY to read that you have your walking cast! You must still listen to the doctor and take it easy though. You want to continue to heal quickly and not push yourself too much!

Candy - Bet it feels good to have the cruise paid in full! Love when I can finish paying for vacation!

Harry - Sounds like a busy weekend for you! You will have to post a dance photo or two from the dance recital.

Well, I am so happy to have survived the past 2 weeks at work. I have put in about 35 hours over my 40 hour work week (plus had work to do at home as well). There are still 2 more weeks of really long, hard days and then it should slow down a bit. I am looking forward to having a bit more time to be with my family again.

This weekend will be busy for us....Ben's dance group competed last night and did great! Emily's group will compete on Sunday afternoon/evening and we are excited to see her group as well.

One of the more important things I need to do this weekend is to figure out where we want to eat at WDW in August. I know that I should have made the reservations a while ago but with our plans changing back and forth, we didn't make any. I am worried because when I go online to try to make reservations, it appears that there are very limited places with openings. I am going to hope that the concierge at the Poly can help us!

Have a great Saturday everyone!

Happy Weekend all - Just a reminder the vote ends tomorrow for either yellow or green.

Remember the writing on the green one is correct.


We are up to a total of 92, minimum order is 100. If you want one don't forget to send me you name, cabin, how many and the names of others traveling with you.

4 months from today!!! We spent the morning watching the DCL DVD on an otherwise dreary day here in the northeast USA.

I would totally take dreary....we have SNOW! I am NOT happy about the SNOW. YUCK! My plan for today is to lay around for as long as possible, then do some laundry, at some point tackle the taxes, figure out food for the week and send Paul out to do the shopping, maybe take a nap and just enjoy being lazy!

 

[sdchickie]

Just got back from running a 10K in the rain!!! I was ok till mile 4 then the rains came and by the end I looked like a drowned rat. We still had a great time, but I'm hopeing for sun next year. And the best part-I wasn't last!

 

[Pudo]

Just wanted to pop in and say, Hello! Trying hard to keep up with the thread but often find it a losing battle.

It' really nice to see Jen back! That was a very pleasant surprise. Glad to see that worked out.

We are almost at the 120 day mark so we will be PIF and looking to book Palo Brunch. At the moment, we don't have any interest in Remy, but would like to take a look around. Of course, unless you have a reservation I doubt they would let you do that.

We were thinking about lanyards, I don't think we are on the list. We prefer green over yellow, but either is nice.

By the way, is there a FE list available on-line. Just curious to see how many families are participating.
[Edit] Nevermind, found the link to the website Jen created. I see the FE list

Hope to be posting more as we get closer.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Hey Jeff!

So, as of mid week this week, we had 39 families participating in the FE swap! Kristin-aka- Kritter is heading it up, so if you'd like to join, let her know! She needs your family name, room, e-mail and kids ages. Once the groups have been established, she'll be sending e-mails to all the participants.

We are going to try and divide it so that there is a max of 20-25 familes per group.

Hope this helps! Have a great weekend!

Thanks, we are on the list so we are good to go. 20 - 25 families per group sounds good. Beth (TinkerbellTwins) is going to help us out since we have the Roy suite and it appears the gates may keep DISers from putting stuff in our FE so we are looking at other options.
