I had heard about Timothy Green playing...so so so excited for that one!

Yeah I think it doesn't open in theaters until the 15th so maybe we'll have a premier party

We actually haven't seen Brave yet either and my daughter is DYING to see it, so we'll have to try to make time for 2 movies (not sure if I want to spend my cruise time in a theater though)

We haven't seen brave either- but want to, so we may have to make time for that too-maybe my boys will check out Avengers

That is so stinkin' funny!!! but, guess what.........

WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT - we got our cabin!! OMG! I swear I'm printing the page to prove there are 4 digits there! We are deck 9 and I quickly looked at the room reviews and it's a large porthole window seating - which is awesome. But - I swear this isn't complaining - it's Port, we would have preferred Starboard, it's Forward, we would preferred Aft - but I'm just so excited!! WOOHOO - bring it on people! It's a great cabin but more important, the Dream rocks, the cast members rock and so does our group! Thanks for the support and encouragement while we waited!!

Hi Heather! So glad you finally got your room! I thought the Deluxe Family Oceanview Stateroom sounded really nice too, which is why we booked it. I think, also, that I read somewhere on here that the round shower has a "rain" showerhead. Sounded interesting!

Can you believe we'll be boarding the Dream in one week?! So exciting!!

I'm hoping that there is a premier for The Odd Life of Timothy Green as well. That would be fun!

Thanks for sharing this with us!! We are also really looking forward to The Odd Life of Timothy Green! We were lucky enough to be on the Dream when Brave "premeared" at see. We didn't do the midnight showing but we did go the next day and really enjoyed the experience!

We spent more time looking through pictures of the room category and we are really excited about the "new" things we will experience. My DS screamed when he founds out we got the big porthole window he could sit in! It's a great cabin so we're looking forward to it!

GUESS WHAT YOU GUYS? I also just got an email confirmation from DCL and I wondered why I was was getting something else and right away I saw MAIN DINING!! WOOHOO - we were finally moved so I'm so glad. I had requested to have our previous servers so of course I won't know if that happened until I see our table number we were assigned on board. Either way - we are fine with it as getting main was the priority!!

One week from today we'll be in Nassau.....

Yay for the early dining score! Now you can breathe!

I'm getting so excited, my brain has officially checked out from work. I'm cheating on Mickey tomorrow...we're off to Islands of Adventure to check out all of what Harry Potter has to offer, and for DS to see some of his favorite superheroes. Gonna be a hot day hanging out there...but it beats being at work!

Thanks!! As Kristin mentioned - it's a big relief to not worry about it. I wonder where we'll end up - can't wait!!

Take care you all,
Heather

 

[samily]

So glad to see everyone got their rooms and dining times they wanted!

The list of movies looks good - would like to see Timothy Green and People Like Us. I always say I'm going to finally watch a movie onboard and have yet to do so! Maybe this trip

Less than a week - can't wait, so excited!!!

Oh, by the way, I know a meet has been planned but don't know the time/location? Can someone refresh my memory? Thanks!!

 

[KimRaye]

Hello fellow cruisers! Robin and I have come up with a meeting place if it works for everyone.

We will all meet up before the sail away at 3PM-ish in the Bon Voyage lounge.
It is ........
From the disney site: "a bar located on Deck 3, Midship, situated in the grand Atrium on the Disney Dream. It is the perfect place for Guests to enjoy a refreshing beverage before dinner.
...
Bon Voyage offers a sophisticated Art Deco retreat for Guests to relax and unwind at the bar or in its comfortable sitting area.

Beverages
Bon Voyage's full bar serves a large selection of beer, wine and mixed cocktails to Guests 21 years of age or older for an additional fee."

Hope this helps!

 

[samily]

Hope this helps!

Perfect - thanks! I couldn't find it!

 

[KTills]

Hope this helps!

Will some of you have your lime green shirts on, do I understand? Just wondering how we'll know how to spot everybody!

I will, and a couple others are too, I think.

 

[Cruisin]

[MelenaPrincess]

I was away for the past couple of weeks and now getting everything ready to set sail!!! Woohoo!!!! I am excited about the movies. I think my kids want to see Timothy Green. I may have to take the little one to The Muppets since it is her favorite movie. She walks around saying "Maniacal Laugh, Maniacal Laugh, Maniacal Laugh."

Are you all doing door decorations????

We have our outfits ready for Pirate night and I have the kids clothes ready for 2 more dinners, so I think we are in good shape. Just the details to nail down over the weekend

 

[Snick]

I worked on the door decorations after reading about them on here some weeks back. Holy Mackeral, the kids think they are great!! My little even made two of her own: a minnie head and a mickey head. Very sweet. And yes, she keeps asking me if they are in the bag with the others. She'd never forgive me if I left them at home!! LOL

The suitcases are on the floor in the living room, open, and the clothing started to go in today. Pirate outfits are organized. I got new pirate t-shirts, on sale!, at Old Navy yesterday for 3 bucks, in the exact 2 sizes I needed! Woot woot! The other pirate paraphernalia I got a couple of weeks ago!

We really have no idea what we are in for, as this is our first cruise. We are doing the parks for a week afterwards, and we know what we are in for there!!!

How cold does it get in the dining room? Do I need a sweater or a wrap?
thx
So excited!!

 

[Cruisin]

I have never found it to be too chilly in the dining rooms but temperature is a very personal thing I've found. Bring a sweater if you tend to get cold easy and then you will have it all covered (pun intended )

 

[MelenaPrincess]

I'm getting soooooooo excited.

Finally got Hubby's Passport so he is now checked in with the rest of us.

I have my Phone call from Mickey scheduled for the night before

Pirate Garb is ready. I got all us girls some scarves from Old Navy, I will probably use them to accesorize for dinner throughout the week as well as using them for Pirate night.

I am making some sparkly shirts for the girls and I as well. I got all the rhinestones yesterday, now I just need to lay them out and iron them on. Wooohoo! I love sparkle.

And then I have door decorations to do. Hubby will be gone this weekend so the kids and I can spend as much time as we want working on those.

Woohoo!!!!!!
