Hi Disney Dream Cruisers!

Anyone joining us on the 3 night cruise, starting August 25 next summer? This will be our 4th cruise on the DCL - first one on the Disney Dream!

My brother and travelling partner live in Austria and have discovered that we love cruising when we went on our first Disney cruise in August 2009.
Needless to say, we fell in love with it!

So, we are booked on a B2B for this summer on the Disney Wonder and are going on another B2B2B in 2011 on the Disney Dream.
The Aug 25 cruise will be the second leg of the B2B2B!

Would love to meet some fellow DISsers and hope there will be a Fish Extender exchange as well!

I am SO happy to have already found fellow cruisers! Have you been travelling on a Disney cruise ship before? It will be our fourth Disney cruise - fell head over heals in love with it during our first cruise!
Who's cruising with you?

I can see that you are going to stay in Orlando for 3 weeks in 2011 - any idea on where you want to stay?
And I can see that you are Europeans as well! I have family in GB, so I am very excited that there are some Britons on board as well.

 

[pinkhart]

Hello!
We are booked on this cruise too. It will be myself, DH, DD11 and DD9 and it is our first cruise EVER!
Booked a short one to see if we like it...though from reading others posts it could be the start of an expensive addiction!
We will be staying at OKW for 2 weeks before cruising. Can't wait!

Hi,

We cruised on the Wonder last summer, so this will be our 2nd cruise. We will be joined by some friends which we are really excited about.

I haven't booked anywhere for Orlando yet, but we have some DVC points so will be spending some time at the Boardwalk, and possibly sometime at OKW and maybe off-site as well.

It would be nice if we got a little group on here, last time I cruised I didn't really meet any other Dis'ers whcih I was disappointed about.

 

[LauraLap]

Hi All! We will be joining you as well. This will be our second Disney cruise, but our 7th altogether (we usually sail with Royal).

Can't wait!

 

[dizneeat]

Sorry for "neglecting" my own thread, but Tom and I have just today come back from a wonderful 4 week vacation at WDW and the Disney Wonder!
It's back to work tomorrow!!

Welcome!

I will add you to the list right away!
No doubt you will like cruising with Disney. And you are VERY right on the start of an expensive addiction - last year we did our once in a lifetime cruise on the Disney Wonder and needed to do a back to back this summer - well, to cut this story short, we are doing 3 cruises in a row next summer!

Disney keeps luring you back in ........ doesn't it?
We stayed at OKW for 21 nights this summer and LOVED it! We are already booked for next summer for another 4 weeks at Disney - we love to stay for a month and it makes travelling halfway around the globe worth wile.

I hope we will be able to have a meet during the cruise - I missed the one this summer we were to pre occupied with exploring the ship!

Looks like you are all experienced cruisers!

 

[AlisonUK]

We have booked, too - it will be our first cruise! So excited! We are staying in a villa for a couple of weks before hand and then rounding off the holiday in style!

And ... BEV! I can't believe there's going to be someone I know on board!

Look forward to chatting with everyone.

 

[GreatDaneMom]

Hello to all! My DD(16) and I will be joining you. This will be the first leg of our B2B. Isn't it crazy what we have to go through to get a 7-day cruise out of Canaveral next summer?

Sorry, it took me so long, but after returning from 4 weeks at the wonderful world of Disney we both had a hard time catching up with real life.

Welcome!

You are going to LOVE cruising on board a Disney ship! It is a magical experience!
Where are you going to stay before your cruise? Saratoga Springs or Old Key West? We love Old Key West and are spending the part after our cruise there.

Welcome!

It is wonderful to have you on board! I have a feeling this is going to be a fun cruise - and we will be on board with you for both cruises! We decided to add a third cruise at the beginning, so we can actually stay for 11 nights! The things we all do for Disney!

Hi we're in

Myself, DW, DD 11, DS 7. Doing a week at the Boardwalk Villas then off on our 1st cruise. We are Disney veterans, but we are really looking foward to a new adventure.

 

[joius24]

Hi Cruisers!
Joining the Board (thought I did already but I posted on the other B2B board instead oops)....

This one is the second leg of our B2B on the Dream.... Couldn't just do 3 or 4 days...... needed at least 7!

August seems way too far away.... I was scoping out a pre-Dream - Dream cuise last night LOL....but I would need the money fairies to bestow me with some extra cash...

Anyhow it is my DS (15) and I who our cruising, this will be our 6th Disney Cruise. Can't wait!

 

[princessheather]

Hello!!

I'll be setting sail as well on the August 25, 2011 for a 3 day cruise

I am really excited & also i will be getting married on this cruise! i cannot wait! so far we have a guest list of 29 that's made up of our closest friends and family. so if you see a girl running around in a wedding dress its most likely me

ohh & 317 days to go! woohoo

 

[dennismcneely]

Other family reporting in!! Me, DW and DD who will be 9 (she would say 9 1/2) when we sail. We are doing B2B and this one will be our first leg. These will make our 3rd & 4th Disney cruises so far and, of course, our first one on the Dream
Will be staying at Disney's Port Orleans Riverside for 10 days before our cruise, we stayed at POR for the first time this past August/Sept and loved it, Actually, It's become our new favorite!! Although we are US citizens we will be traveling from Madrid, Spain (been living here for many years)

Please count on us if you guys decide to do a Fish Extender Exchange, we have always done it on our previous cruises and it is always one of the highlights of our trip.

My family and I are all very excited and we look forward to getting to know you all!!!

Is it August yet?

We are SO with you - 3 or 4 days are never enough - we are doing 3 cruises in a row this summer!

I hope we get to "see" you during our cruise. On our last cruise there was a wedding too and it was MAGICAL!

How nice to have you on board! We'll join you for your second cruise as well! Can't get enough of the DCL!!
We'll be at WDW before and after our cruises as well! Not too sure where we will stay - we are currently booked at Pop, but we hope to upgrade!

I am really happy you are going to join in on the FE exchange as well - this is SO much fun!!! We'll definitely do it all three cruises this summer! Fun, fun, fun!!!!

Karin, Thanks so much for the warm welcome!! It will be SO good to meet you guys aboard the Disney Dream. 2 Stops at Castaway Cay - 2 Stops at Nassau (we aren't planning to get off the ship in Nassau though) and 1 sea day!!! We couldn't ask for more!!!

Dennis

 

[joius24]

Thanks for the welcome too karin...fun we will be on the same b2b .... I was looking at a possible Feb. cruise too because I dont want to wait BUT i suppose I will have to ...I do need to be mindful of the budget LOL

...I think we may do a few days in the park before we cruise in August....Even though it is hot as hxxx in August, a few days would be fun, the hotels are ussually on sale and I have a few leftover park hoppers to use. ....just looking out the deals first

I will most likely do FE's but I will need to keep it simple LOL... last time I went a little crazy with the details ....

Looking forward to meeting you all!

 

[joius24]

OMG Fantasy is open for booking 2012 in two days (for good old silver member me) I may HAVE to book it at 12:01 am

 

[seethruguy]

We booked our airfare and got a cheaper rate than I had expected. I love when that happens! It is cheaper to stick around Orlando for a couple of days after the cruise and leave on Tuesday, than leave on Sunday even paying for the hotel as long as we don't go crazy. Darn stuck in Disney for 2 extra days. Now I need to figure out where to stay for 2 nights. I'm assuming there will be some room discounts for that time of year, I'm figuring a moderate resort. Maybe CBR or CSR. Any suggestions?

6 nights at BWV
3 nights on the Dream
2 nights ??
