Disney Dream 12th January 2012

[Ginger Renae]

My DD will be a few weeks shy of 5 years old when we sail. I think she will LOVE the kids programs and I am looking forward to having time for DH and I to relax in the adult areas of the ship. I will definitely be looking to sign up for the champagne tasting!

Is anyone doing a FE exchange? I was just reading about it and it sounded fun.

I would be interested too! How do we get it set up?

Hi all,

Just heard from my FL resident dad that he's thinking of taking DH, DS, DD, and I on this cruise because of the great FL resident rates available. This will be my Dad's first DCL cruise but the 5th for the rest of us. we just did a 7 day eastern in October. We booked that one 23 months before we sailed so it's safe to say I'm used to having more time to plan! I'm usually up at midnight on the 90 day mark to make my Palo reservations, port arrival time, spa appointments etc.

Since I just found out about this trip but don't have a reservation yet I can't go online to check any details. I'd like to know if there are even any reservations still available for either Remys or Palo. I'd also like to know what the earliest port arrival time is. Anyone checked tis recently? I sure would appreciate the info.

I was only able to check reservations for a party of 2 in Palo and Remy and they seem to be pretty wide open for any of the three nights right now. The largest availability gap I see is night 3 at Remy - nothing between 6:50 - 7:40.

Thanks so much for checking this for me Ginger Renae. I read through the meet thread and this is your first cruise right? I know you will have a great time. Just warning you, Disney cruises can be VERY addictive!

Hmmmmm I am almost 47 can't remember how to do that, can it be googled somewhere for the instructions?

I tried to start the C25K program a few weeks ago....yeah...didn't work so well. I should have known better than to wear my Sketchers Shape Ups when I was going to try to run. DUH!

Let's see, get to port, check in. Grab friends, get dispeeps picture taken in dispeeps tshirt, make up a name for them to announce as you board the ship, grab a drink meet my new dispeeps from this thread say 3:30 @ 687 bar, then sail away party, then hoping for a suite life on deck time warp. Ahhhhhhhhh

That sounds like an awesomesauce plan to me!

Hmmmmm 57 posts Til a and 58 Til a

We spent last week at DL getting our last use of our annual passes. We had a fabulous trip, of course, and I tried to get DH to re-new our passes, but no luck.

While taking DD trick or treating last night, I met a guy on the next street over who commented on DD's Rapunzel costume. We started chatting and it turns out he works on the Dream! He is obviously off right now, but returns in about a week. Unfortunately, he won't be on our cruise either as he is going to Germany to pick up the Fantasy.

Looking forward to the holidays. I have told all of our relatives that Katie wants Disney gift cards for Christmas so she can use them to shop at WDW and onboard the ship...same goes for me!

How cool is it that your neighbor is employed by DCL!!!!! Sorry you couldn't talk DH into renewing your annual passes. Maybe he'll start to go through Disney withdrawal and he'll change his mind.


Hi everyone! Myself & DH (Steamboat Willy Nilly) are the other two of the six that Disrailfan mentioned. Looking forward to a quick get away in January. In my opinion, that's the most depressing month of the year. The holidays are over, it's cold, it's dark by the time I get off work. There are no holidays during that month. So, it will be nice to have a cruise to look forward to...even though it's only a 3 night cruise. I spent 7 nights on that ship and still didn't see it all.

Hey there! We're practically neighbors! I'm in northwest Indiana.

To answer your question about the FE exchange...we won't be participating in one this time. It's just DH and I sailing and with it being just after the holidays, I just won't have the time to do anything for an FE exchange. I hope more people want to participate with you though...they are really fun and we've gotten some really great gifts, too!!

Well, I will admit I attempted jogging this week, and no, there were no axe wielding assassins after me I did a mile on Monday and a mile on Tuesday. On Wednesday I couldn't walk very well at all and have been limping about until yesterday I guess I wound up aggravating an over 20 year old injury in my left foot Not giving up though. Once my foot is back to normal I'll try walking a couple of miles a day

I'm looking forward to trying to finish off a kitchen sink at Beaches & Cream, hitting Jellyrolls and then the cruise!

Don't over-do it!!! My aunt was pushing herself too hard at the gym trying to run further than she normally did. She ended up almost needing surgery and not quite sure if it was going to be permanent damage. I think she's ok now, but it was scary for a while!!!

I hope your foot gets back to normal soon.

That kitchen sink....you mean all of us splitting it? Or is Wally's appetite rubbing off on you? I can't wait to hit Jellyrolls!!!!!!!! Haven't been there since the late 90's.

My partner and I are running the Chip and Dale Marathon relay..spending a few days at the park and decided to add this 3 night cruise onto our trip! We have a close friend with two beautiful girls..3 and 1 coming as well! We LOVE DCL...this will be our 10th cruise with Disney! Woohoo! Hope to meet some of you onboard! D

 

[Ginger Renae]

Is there a Palo brunch on the 3 day trips?

 

[OKW Lover]

No - no Palo brunch on the 3-night.

Thanks. It feels mostly normal now. Well, I was thinking of splitting it of course. But I'm sure the bottomless pit could finish it off himself It should be fun!

Welcome!! I'm hoping to meet some new DIS friends onboard as well! It's just DD12 and me and I have a feeling that she won't want to hang out with me all the time so I'll be interested in some adult interaction! It's our first cruise and we're very excited - and excited to get out if Wisconsin in the dead of winter!
