It will be the last trip our DS can take with us as he will be going into grade 12 and then off to university. He wants to go to medical school and if that's the case I'm sure he'll be far too busy to hang out with his elderly mom and dad. 
Medical school, well good for him!!! We have a few teens in our group as well. I am sure they will have a ball!!My DS will be 16 and my DD will be 14. Hard to believe and makes us feel quite old.
We weren't going to switch but I just found connecting rooms on the Magic, 3 more nights, and no flying with my little one.
Just too tempting to pass up. I've also never been on any DCL ship so the Magic will be new to me, and I told DH that we'll try the Dream or Fantasy on our next trip.
Sorry to see you go but I am sure you will have a great time on the Magic! We sailed her twice and enjoyed both trips!!Sorry but I guess I'm the first one from the thread to jump ship.
Enjoy the cruise and the aquaduck!
Hi Kate! Have an awesome trip on the Magic in August!! If it helps any, my friend Scott and his family sailed on the Dream in May and have already booked again for October.Hi
We are looking at booking this on our Magic Med. cruise in July. It seems such a long way off, but the plan is to do a week at WDW and then pick up this cruise, before flying back home.
We are Myself, Other Half and our dd who will be nearly 8 at the time of cruising - wow that sounds weird, she is only 6 now! We live in the UK and did two Med. cruises last year and the Wonder back in 2008 from Florida.
Hoping things won't change, but if DCL go back to the Med in 2013, we may move the cruise and be jumping ship
I must admit, I am a bit worried about such a large ship, we love the intimacy of the Magic and the 'old world' feel.
Kate
Sounds like our gang, although we do have a couple of younger ones. My younger son will be 5 and he is the youngest of the boys, but there will be a 2 and a 4 year old girl in our crowd as well. Oldest in our gang for the kids will also be 15 I believe! With a very few exceptions, most of the Mom's and Dad's will also be in their 40's.I've kind of lost count how many cabins I have going now.... But... something like 10 ?
We're all from NY as well. Staten Island, Long Island (various towns represented), and the Bronx.
As far as kids.... I'm not sure exactly the youngest ... I think my son will be the youngest at 6.... and my daughter will be the oldest in the group at 15 (Lord help me). Parents are from 40 - mid 50's... So... Watch out for us...
(I fear my bar bill)
(lovedvc... is that you Vik?)
See.... I guess I have no clue who booked from your side...
I counted us (I have 2 cabins.... Sue 1), the Savino clan + Donna (3 cabins), You, D&E, and then my old work friend (she has 4 cabins I think). So... 12 cabins... Who else is coming?
What should we bring Saturday?
Bam... Regarding the prices... I KNOW!!!! When we booked, cat 8D was $905 pp for the first 2 passengers.... Now its like $1370 pp for the first 2. I guess in the end it's us that are going to laugh when others are booking for $500 + pp more than we did... HA!
Vik... I'm laughing at your sig... How in the heck can you remember all that? I've been going to Disney since I was a kid... but there's no way in hell I'd be able to remember the years and/or the places we stayed... lol
