DISNEY DREAM 5-nights May 29th, 2011

[Disneyelf10]

OK, I found the gift receipt and I returned this snow right after the holidays. What's going on....

Evidently someone regifted the snow. We have more today and even more on the way

It's like fruitcake, it just keeps going around.

I know I'm late reading these but couldn't resist... all very funny...

yes all this snow needs to go back to where it came from! We have no more room for it and we could get more on Tuesday - either rain or snow or both...

Can't wait for the cruise! Sun, Sun and more sun!

Has anyone thought of doing t-shirts? I would be happy to do it. How many people are interested?

We did shirts on our last cruise and we picked a design and paid and shipped. But this seems to be a much better cruise and what was everyone thinking- making their own- smae or different?? Just curious

 

[zimaaaaah]

Boy have I missed a lot of posts! Took a couple of sessions to catch up. Had good intentions of keeping up with the board all along but life intervenes sometimes. But back now and ready to keep up. All the new pictures and information about the Dream that are hitting the boards just make it harder to wait 'til May!

That is such a nice offer, especially since I am somewhat craftily challenged and would have no chance of doing them myself. We would love to have shirts if you decide to do it. We would be 3 adult size and one child size. Not sure where we are on picking a theme/graphic?

 

[zimaaaaah]

Has anyone heard any rumors about how often they will offer the Palo brunch on the 5 night? With a ship this size it's going to be hard to get a reservation if it's only on a sea day.

We have been thinking about possibly doing Remi, but since we won't know our dining rotation until we get our key card, I would hate to miss out on one of the restaurants. Decisions, decisions.....

Any info. about brunch? We really wanted to try it this time but being only Silver don't think we will have much chance if it is only one day.

DONT say it! I just found my front stairs!!

zimaaaaah - I'm hoping for Brunch info as well - and I'm also silver but I'm going to try my best. If I don't get it via on line booking I'm b-lining it to Palo as soon as I can!!!

Here are some more pics I found in case you haven't seen them yet.

I think I might start a thread and ask how the early Palo bookings went for the upcoming cruises.

You didn't come on on Friday with our Friday Countdown. I miss it! You were on Thursday, but missed Friday completely.

I love the weekly Friday countdown! This will be good motivation for me to stay on my diet cause it makes it sound so close!

I started at thread about Palo brunch. Only one response, but looks like maybe us silver members may have a shot at an online reservation.

"Lowest level Castway Member here. Sold out before 8 am on my first day to book. Lots of other posts saying "first time" cruisers not getting it at all. Brunch on my 4 day was only offered on the sea day."

I started this thread if you want to track it. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2635882

Thanks for the link. Doesn't sound like good news though. Guess I will be making a beeline to Palo right behind disneyfool_1202!

 

[heatherlynn444]

hello all! just back from Disney for the marathon, my husband and I both got sick so we came home 2 days early. So sad
The cruise is now my next trip so I can officially start getting into planning!

Disneyfool- I think we're going to get lucky w/ Tuesday storm- maybe an inch and then rain for the East...you may be right near the "line" for snow/rain but I will send pixie dust for no more snow!ixiedust:

I was looking into to Brunch on the Dream as well...love the pics and out of all my cruises I have never made it there yet! I need to move this up on my list!! So, I will be running with the rest if you if I can't get a ressie befoer hand!

 

[zimaaaaah]

I'll race ya!!

I can see it now - Just like Black Friday at WalMart - The pushing the shoving OH the insanity of it all!

Well the pixie dust didn't get here soon enough! School called off at 5:45 this morning and that means I have to stay home from work because I can't find a sitter. While many folks like to stay home from work (and usually I am one of them) I work per dium so if I don't work, I don't get paid. I missed the first 2 wks of January due to an unexpected illness that required a week in the hospital (I'm fine now) but I just can't seem to catch a break!

Oh well - in a few months this weather will be behind us and we'll be all warm and toasty sitting on the Dream with our umbrella drinks!!!

Just a reminder to those of you who are planning on getting in the day before & staying in a hotel anywhere over night. It is Memorial Day weekend!

I booked a room at the Double Tree in Melbourne for Saturday night. It's right on the beach, so we can get up to see sunrise over the water on Sunday morning before going to Port. Yes, I did say get up to see sunrise. Who can sleep in with all the excitement of the cruise. We stayed at a hotel on the Beach in Cocoa Beach 2 cruises ago and got up to see the sunrise & walk the beach. It is beautiful at that time in the morning. Then in for breakfast & off to Port.

From what I've seen so far when I was checking out the hotels, most of the people who will book for Memorial Day haven't thought that far out yet, but sooner or later they will be booking & then it may be too late for us.

We booked Friday and Saturday night at the CI&S for $70.00 a night which was a really good deal. King room and whirlpool suite.

How did you get that rate? I got it in Jan with that friends and family code but wasn't able to get it for may, paying $114 for just a regular room
