Disney Magic - 05/10/13 (May 10, 2013) - Calling All Kids At Heart

[LoveMM]

Candy for movies - I would have never even thought of this! Duh!!!! What a great idea!

We always bring snacks and also Disney mugs with lids to fill at the drink station. For all the new cruisers, you can bring your own libations! You can't check it with your luggage but you can pack it in your carry on.

Hi all

I've just booked myself and Beth dd11 on this cruise.

We are doing the EBTA and were planning on getting to galveston via New York the week before but unfortunately my dh couldn't get time off work, so he and my other dd Ellie 2 will be joining us later.

 

[SapphireMind]

To give my daughter ideas, what sort of trinkets are usually done for FEs?

 

[LWQuestie]

Would anyone on this cruise be interested in driving a rental vehicle from the port back to Hobby? I'm on the EBTA right after you get back and roundtrip rentals are WAY cheaper than one way.

Excellent! Thanks so much for your willingness to help out.

My only question pertains to transport from Houston (HOU) to the cruise port. Has anyone done this with a toddler before? Do most shuttles/taxis require a child seat? If so, where would you store it once aboard the ship?

Thanks!!

The disney tour bus does not require car seat & pretty sure cabs don't either. We did the disney shuttle last year when DD was 23 months without one. We r using disney shuttle again this year without carseat.

So excited we got our documents today!!!!

 

[DanReviewsCars]

What does Disney charge r/t, pp for the shuttle?


Glad you're all getting psyched! Just over a month to go...

 

[NWR]

Yay! Ordered my FE. Now trying figure out what to do for Pirate Night - full-on costumes, or just pirate shirts, etc. I think I am more excited than the boys are. LOL

Glad to have such a GREAT group of people to cruise with! Everyone here is so kind and helpful. Shout out to our ship neighbors Crchapm!

Hello! I've got a family of 4 plus 2 grandparents on the cruise. I've been lurking for a few weeks and was wondering if there's a FE lite option. My girls are almost 2 and almost 4, so we don't want to overwhelm them, but one or two small gifts might be nice.

Thanks,
Danielle

 

[maiziejenga]

I forgot to mention that all 6 of us are first time cruisers

 

[csoutherl]

I tried to add Disney Transportation from HOU to the Hotel Galvez and they wouldn't let us because we didn't book the hotel through Disney. We've booked a separate shuttle round trip.
Disney transportation is $30 pp/each way. So for 3 people (which we are as well) it was $180.
