Disney Dream photo book - can we take it off the ship?

[CampbellzSoup]

Or will this bad boy be mailed to us?

Just wondering for anyone who's done this!

Thanks my favorite people ever

Let me know how the photo book works out for you. On our December cruise, I chose not to do the photo book because my kids are older and I knew we wouldn't wait in line for to many photo ops.
I did go into one of the stores on ship and spent 24 dollars (that's like a thousand Canadian ) and developed the 300 plus pics we took. So for 50 dollars we have an amazing book of everything. That being said my heart really was on the professional book offered on the ship. At the end of the day my family had three pictures from shutters taken 2 at dinner and one of my daughter and I at the end of the 5k

You take it.
I know people like them but what I've seen (and it might have changed) is that it limits you. And to me and my album aesthetics it is a lot of fluff and background, and I'm a more basic photo album/scrapbook person. Disney cruise photos don't leave you with tons of choices to begin with so after our first Disney cruise I was done with them.

@bumbershoot you don't think it's worth it if your pretty heavy on character meets and this might be your one Disney cruise? It's the main battle in having with it that or he CD

May go with the cd, then you can customize and add your personal photos to the book you make.

Is this your first cruise? And how long will you be on the ship. Sorry if you mentioned that already (it's early and I haven't had enough coffee yet )
We found on our three day cruise, we were litterally non-stop go. Get up, breakfast off to port, back in clean up, dinner then the kids were off to the clubs or we were off to a show, bed then repeat, lol three days flew. We were going to do Universal after we got back to Florida but I said I was tired of walking so we all voted for a beach for a few days.
I think this really depends on how much time you have on board and how much time you want to spend to see Characters. ( I did wait a few years ago to see Mickey, cause I do love that mouse) lol

Good luck, have a blast and bring your camera. My kids are older and I let them also carry their iPods even though they had no internet they took pictures on them as well when they were with their friends.
Here are a few from their iPods

On one cruise we were able to take the photo book with us, on another it had to be shipped.

I would buy any photos I wanted then combine with my own once off the ship and make my own book including excursions and the rest of our travels etc. We don't really do lining up for characters so don't get enough pictures to justify a CD or even the Ship photo book, so just buy the few we really want and the rest are our own.

This Friday and yes it's three days but It's better than nothing

Thanks for sharing your photos

Quick question, how are the lines usually for Shutters Photographers and/or the Character Meet & Greets? I feel the same way with the 3 day crusie that I'm going to be non stop like a ping pong ball and forth
