Did the online check-in this morning & got port arrival time of 11-11:30. Hope this works riding the DME to the port, but it's probably close enough. No Palo brunch, but I'll try to reserve something once onboard. I didn't want dinner as this is our 1st cruise & wanted to experience all the dining rotations. Also reserved the snorkel/float/bike rental/stingray experience. I'm all excited now, so here are our plans!

8/25---Buf to Orlando, arrival time 8:40 a.m.! Check in at Poly, then off to MK. Dinner at LTT (DD's request).

8/26---MK again. Breakfast at CRT (1st time in castle). Hoping to see parade & fireworks tonight.

8/27---Epcot. DH & I have reservations for Segway around the World tour. Dinner at GG (a family favorite).

8/28---Breakfast at O'hana (1st time). DME to Port! Explore the ship & meet w/Dis friends.

8/29-9/1---cruise/relax/have fun.

9/1---leave ship. Check in at Beach Club. Off to HS. Dinner at 50's Prime Time (1st time). Must do's: Star Tours & Phineas & Ferb meet.

9/2---BB or TL. Our 1st time for both, not sure which to choose yet. Dinner in DTD, T-Rex (1st time).

9/3---HS most likely as I don't know how much we'll get done on 9/1. About 12:30 board DME to trip to airport & home.

Anyone else have plans to share?

PIF a few days ago and made a ressie for Palo!

We've been to Nassau three times so I don't think we'll do any excursions. We'll probably just stay onboard and explore the Dream

Is it August yet?

We're staying on board in Nassau as well. I want to explore as much of the Dream as possible.

They let you have a check in time??? I am staying on property too and they said that I can't have a check in time since i am taking Disney Cruiseline transportation???? Talked to others about when they leave from WDW & take DCL transportation and they said it was anywhere from 12:30-1:30 with arrival time at the port 1:30-3.

Congradulations to everyone with there great plans and to Karin I envy you wish i was that good . I will post mine as soon as i get a day off i worked 17 hours yesterday at my second job and still got 12 more tonight . will try to catch up with everything tommorow pixies crossed .

 

[debsters41]

Awesome Itineraries everyone!!! I haven't figured mine out all the way yet, but will have it ready soon!

Karin - when does school go back in session? Our classes start on the 12th, but I have to be back earlier (even though I am 'extra-curricular' and not part of the actual school system at all) Technically, I am going home 6 days late because I am supposed to help out starting on the first... Oh well....

Will it be hard for you to go back to work right away or will you be rested and raring to go?

We go back on September 12. Now the first few days should be fun (NOT) with getting back on Austrian time!
We will arrive back home in the early afternoon of Sept 11 and going right back to school will be hard, but we kind of have played the same game for the last few years - 4 weeks in the US, back on Sunday and work on Monday!

 

[fishhooks]

Wow your trips sounds great, mine isint as grand....we leave on Aug 26 going to downtown disney on the 27th, (cannot get ressies to Ohana ... and then cruise on Sunday!!!! Cant wait!!!!

They let you have a check in time??? I am staying on property too and they said that I can't have a check in time since i am taking Disney Cruiseline transportation???? Talked to others about when they leave from WDW & take DCL transportation and they said it was anywhere from 12:30-1:30 with arrival time at the port 1:30-3.

It gave me the option to choose port arrival times & since I didn't know when DCL trans. would get us there I hopefully chose 11-11:30. I should see if I can go back in the reservation & change it to later.

 

[Tconst]

Great plans everyone!

Karin, I'm exhausted just reading all you're going to do! Awesome!

That's awesome that they let you choose...I wonder why I didn't have an option? Did you book your wdw trip along with your cruise or separate? We did ours all together in one package...

 

[APB513]

Completed online check in today. Got a port arrival time of 11:00 am - 11:30 am.

I figured out my FE gifts. I hope it's something that everyone will like

I'm still working on our schedule I should have it fine tuned soon
