We are Arrive at WDW late Friday night for a day of destressing before the cruise. We will be staying at Riverside and going over to Downtown Disney for the day Sat. (we are not Runners). If anyone wants to meet up let us know.

90 Days to go - woohoo!!!! It will be a long, tough stretch until then. Can not wait!

only 2 hours until we can book our activities! yay!

I just logged on to book a few things that I wanted to make sure we got. A few things of notice:
Palo brunch is sold out.
There is only 1 cabana on the family beach left. I didn't see any available on the Adult beach either.
Plenty of openings for Palo and Remy for dinner.
Arrival times are wide open (I had heard the early arrival times were filling up 90 days out).
Jeff...

yeah, I am doing a back to back, and I was not able to get a brunch for either cruises.... so I guess they were booked by the earlier group. We'll try to get a brunch once on the ship I guess.

We did get a High tea, but it's not a brunch... Also Palo diner (and Remy on our earlier cruise).

I was up at midnight and I got a cabana! I was unable to get Brunch also. On our last 3 cruises I had brunch booked every time and we cancelled onboard every time. We have had dinner at Palo each cruise and after dinner we always felt that we had no room left for brunch. This time I decided no dinner, but brunch. That will teach me! Hopefully we will all be able to get brunch once on board.

Thanks for all of these updates. As we have never sailed on Disney before and are not DVC members, we can not register until 75 days before the cruise...I was hoping to get an early arrival time and a cabana on the adult beach. Looks like I may be out of luck for both Oh well, we will see what we can get on Oct. 25th.

Hi all! We will be joining in on the FE. We are a large party! (no numbers yet)
room 1 one boy (6yrs) and one girl(4yrs)
room 2 two girls (5yrs,6yrs)
room 3 two boys (3yrs,6yrs)

I'm hoping to make this trip special for my friend. It is her 35th birthday and she has had a rough year! She deserves this trip more than anyone I know.
Any ideas?

Just booked a few spa treatments and an excursion while at Nassau. Its getting close!!!

Heading Home from DC today, Bump, WDW in a week Food and Wine.

 

[Lynn G]

Good Morning Cruisers!

Everyone must be on vacation! We are getting ready to head out to WDW for Food and Wine.

Have a great day all!

6 more days until we can register online. Excited and hopeful we can get an early boarding. Our cabin changed from 6A to category 5E which is nice. Can not wait till we are on board - it is already freezing here in Minnesota - looking forward to some warm weather.

 

[Scott H]

We are still in a GTY status, oh well will see what happens

I just checked, all arriving times between 11:00 and 3:30 appear to be available. Good Luck getting what you want!


BTW: did anyone check the prices for Jan 2013? There is multiple threads on disboards talking about how expensive the new dates are. I thought Jan 2013 was cheaper than 2012, at least compared to what I paid for this cruise. Every year I'm looking for an excuse to get out of the cold winter (this will be our 3rd year in a row on DCL in Jan/Feb). Unfortunately, I don't start thinking about booking until after Labor Day. Maybe this year I'll wise up and take advantage of the discount of booking on-board.

Jeff.

Glad you had a great time! I love all cruises. Princess and Carnival have been my two favorite. Never been on RCL yet. The only cruise line I did not care for, although it was still OK, was Norwegian cruise lines.

This will be my first Disney - sure it will be magical!

Hopefully this upcoming Dream cruise can live up to your recent RCL experience!
