I absolutely can't believe it...we live on Disney cruise #50 on Saturday! It feels like not so long ago we were in the preview center at WDW, watching the promo video on the new cruise line (anyone else remember Mickey and his friend Crystal Ball?) and thinking, "Hmmmm, that might be something fun to try." Our first sailing was the 11th voyage of the Magic, over Labor Day weekend (we had to switch from Memorial Day because of the delay in the ship's construction).

It was traumatic when we switched most of our cruises from the Magic to the Wonder when the Magic went to 7-day cruises, but we soon learned to consider the Wonder our "home" at sea. But now we're heading back to where it all began for the big 5-0! Quite fitting that it's a double Castaway Cay cruise. :banana: :cool1: :banana:

Congrats on DCL cruise #50 Barb and Tony, have a MAGICal week!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :goodvibes
 
Congrats on the big 5-0! I raise my virtual Pina Colada to you! Have a Magical voyage & don't forget to tell us all about it when you get home.

I'm going to go sulk now..........(sigh). Why did I plan my next cruise in FEBRUARY?!!!

:wave:
 
You'll know why when February comes and you fly far, far away from all that cold and snow. ;)

Can't wait to read your trip report!!! :) Have a great cruise!!! :) :) :) Can't wait to see how the DDs are going to work. :)
 
Have a great cruise!!

Always love your trip reports - started reading them with number 13 before our first cruise and was impressed - how could anyone go on 13 cruises;). Now I understand how easy it would be.:goodvibes

Bon Voyage!!!
 
Congrats! I hope this is the one you get upgraded to the Walt or Roy Suite! DCL should do this for you, you earned it! Your site has helped all of us who looked for information long before the Passporter, Deb's and even the DIS. If they cannot give you the Suite, I hope your spa package is all gratis! Or how about a free Magic Cruise the week of October 21st? I have always wanted to meet the folks who have done more to promote DCL than DCL. Barring that, tons of Pixie Dust to you both. pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust: pixiedust:

Awwwww, we're just going to miss you by a week! We sail on Oct. 15!
DCL could never comp our spa bill because of the impact on profits and the resulting uprising of shareholders. I hate to admit it, but at times our spa bill has exceeded the cost of our cruise! We've got two spa villa appointments lined up, but of course I can justify it for once. It's only because this is #50, not because I'm addicted to the spa!

You are staying in 5650? I'm across the way in 5150! (Same cruise!)

Sorry Barb but I can't resist teasing this "Freudian slip". We all know you two "live" on DCL! :rotfl2:

Although we all wish we had a few more cruises under our belt, it's impossible to be jealous when you are so generous sharing your experiences and love of DCL. Congratulations!!!
 
HAVE A BLAST!!!!!

HAPPY 50TH CRUISE!

Hey, Shirley, I remember that basket! It was awesome! Tony still has the little Chicago Bear statue on his desk. And remember the cool treasure chest you did for our friend? For anyone looking for a cruise basket, Shirley's work is the BEST!!! (But everyone probably already knows that from all the raves here on DIS :goodvibes ). I can't find your email address so please drop me a line at disneycruise@gmail.com so I will have it. I lost a lot of addresses when Mailblocks went out of business.

Princess, yes, you are in the mirror image of our room! You will love the quiet location, which has a near total absence of hallway traffice and nice, close proximity to the "secret" back staircase. Just be prepared for the vibration when docking; the thrusters serve as our wake-up call, although I'm so used to them now that I just sleep right through. In my opinion, deck 5 aft is the best location on the ship! :thumbsup2
