Jenn,

I'm so sorry I won't get to meet you! But hope you enjoy the other one you have booked. Yeah, being in retail can be a tough business to find the right time to be able to take a vacation...

Bumping it up for the sake of visibility. Only 394 days to go!

Tidbit of info for those who park at the port: SUPPOSEDLY the parking fee will rise to $20 per day sometime in 2011. So it will be $140 for the week. Yikes! At least we'll be able to use the covered parking garage though.

Looking forward to meeting you in Dec '11!

Welcome to our cruise thread. It'll be time for our cruise before we know it!

 

[Buckeye Princess]

Hello all! We will be on the cruise too! We actually booked back in Aug when we took our very first cruise. (Both first DCL cruise as well as first any kind of cruise.) I didn't want to come on and introduce myself right away though because I wasn't 100% sure on the dates.

Basically I am very very pregnant right now. I'm due Dec 5th. We took DD who is now 21 months to Disney for her first birthday back in Jan. Well we fell in love with the cruise and I think it is actually a far better vacation for our family and the ages of our little ones right now. I immediately told DH we needed to take this baby on a Disney vacation for his 1st birthday. So we estimated and booked while on board. Now that I'm getting close to my due date and he didn't appear early I'm confident we'll be on the Dec 3rd sailing. Even if he comes a few days early I don't want to sail over Thanksgiving, and my doctor won't let me go past my due date so no worries there.

So we'll be on board next year with myself, DH, DD who will be nearing 3 and DS (unless the ultrasound was wrong) who will be turning 1!!!!! I think we'll go to MK for a day or two before or after the cruise so I can get my WDW fix and because I'd feel like a bad mom for having DD so near Disney and not taking her. haha

Just wanted to wish everyone on our Meet thread a very Happy Thanksgiving! I can hardly wait until 12/11!!!

My husband and I just booked this cruise. We have two teenage daughters. One is going to be 16 and the other is going to be turning 14.

When we step foot on the Magic it will have been 8yrs since we have cruised. To say it is way over due is an understatement. But between braces, catholic school tuition and life, we just could not make it happen any sooner.

We are super excited!!!!

For personal reasons, I've had to cancel my booking on this cruise and am now booked on the November 5th Magic.

Happy sailing everyone!

Hey gang...we have booked this cruise. It will be 5 years since sailed "Magic" (no kids then) but other cruise lines in between. In my opinion, nothing compares to Disney.
It will be myself Lisa, my partner Lisa,(we call Dee) our daughter now 19 mth old Marissa, and my parents..... we will be celebrating my parents 57th wedding anniversary.
Cannot wait to sail...we are so excited...

 

[oakiex4]

OH NO...I hope all is ok! Was looking forward to you cruisin' with us! Have fun in November!!

 

[oakiex4]

Has anyone started a list for FE on this cruise yet???

 

[stegel]

Hi Everyone,

We are also going to be on this cruise! My Mom and I are surprising my kids, DD 8, DS 7 and DD 5. Although I have been on 4 cruises before this is my 1st Disney cruise and the 1st cruise for the kids! They will be so excited!!! Are there any past cruisers who can give me some tips? I'm looking into decorating our door and then doing the gift exchange too. Any ideas or suggestions on how to make this even more special? Thanks for the info and I look forward to cruising with you!!

 

[glindamood]

Hi everyone! I am sorry that we will not get to meet you all as we are sailing on the October 29th Western. You will have a blast, of that I am sure.

 

[M&M-Mommy]

Hello All!!
Just wanted to check in!! We are SOOO looking forward to our first Disney Cruise!! My parents are now going too! It will be their first Disney Cruise too!
Has anyone started the FE list yet?? I want to start working on my surprises for all!!

 

[donald'sdarling]

Hello! I read through the first 10 pages of the thread, and I'm not sure who all are still on this cruise or had to cancel, but my DH and I will be tagging along! My husband booked this cruise as my birthday present!

Looking forward to a great cruise and meeting new folks!
