Dream July 19, 2011 - 5 Night Bahamas!

[LoriLuvsDisney]

Unfortunately, I am not able to continue on this cruise on this date. My family and I have moved to the August 2 cruise though so I'm still cruising!

CruisinEars has taken over the who is cruising list.

The list is posted at post #80.

Have fun all!

Just transferred a December 2010 to July 19, 2011. Deck 5 category 8D. Towards the back of the ship but when we had a similar room on the Magic in the front of the ship we just loved it.

Who else is in?

I'll have to post again after I update my signature with my new iternirary!!!!

We're in! I think we're deck 5 too! Multi-family cruise with my husband's family. There will be 10 of us!

We're in too! My DH and I and 2 DD who will be 17 and 14 when we sail! Can't wait!

 

[disfreaks]

We're in! Yeah! We are in a Cat 9A on Deck 6. It will be myself, DH, DD 16 and DS 13 at the time of sailing! We are so excited. We have had cruise withdrawals since the Panama cruise last August!

 

[LoriLuvsDisney]

sounds like we have a lot of teens going too! The new Vibe looks really cool. I especially like the outdoor place to 'chill'. My kids can't wait. They'll be 15 and 14 when we sail. We did the Magic this past summer and my daughter was thrilled to be able to go to the teen club. (we weren't sure she'd get to go because the Magic has ages 14-17 for the Stack and the WOnder has ages 13-17.) She made a lot of friends and still is in contact with them.

I'm looking forward to seeing the ship. I'm so glad though that Disney is keeping some of our favorites.

I'll have a DS 17 and a DD 14... plus nephews who will be 6 and 4. Lori, I think we sailed together! That seems so long ago!

 

[disfreaks]

LoriLuvsDisney, our DD's are currently the same age! Mine will be 15 in April. I am excited we are one deck above the teen area. Vibe does look very cool! She is excited to go try it! I'm going to have to start saving for her smoothies! The lava smoothie and a coffee one she tried last time are her favorites. How did your DD like the teen club? Mine was in Quest last time and liked that. We are trying Freedom of the Seas in July of 2010. I hope we like it.

We are also booked on this cruise. Category 9B, deck 2. I'm hoping that we have one big porthole instead of 2 small ones. We are also booked on the 7/24 cruise also - back to back cruises. I'm not sure if we will keep the 2nd cruise, I wish one of these cruises went somewhere else. It will be myself (49), DH (47), and DS (13) - ages are at time of sailing. We are also booked on a 5 night next summer. DH booked that on points just a couple of weeks before the Dream itinerary was announced. If we go on the cruises as currently booked we will be on Castaway Cay 6 times in about a year. This is probably a good thing!!

Noahsmom -

I think we were on the same cruise last summer? July 18 to Tortola on the Magic? If not, I must have read several of your posts somewhere - your name is awfully familiar....

I can answer for her - Yes! We were too - LoriluvsDisney - I knew your name looked familiar! it looks like we have a reunion of several repeat Mutiny cruisers!!! I think a few more have booked just not found their way over here yet...

(Noah's mom, My daughter played lacrosse...)

My kids are excited about the new ship, teen area, water slide and in general, excited to cruise again! It looks like we'll have a good representation from the teens!! I'm still in shock to see age 17 next to my son on the reservation...

We have deck 5 balcony cabins. Not sure where they are located, I haven't looked at a deck plan.

 

[LoriLuvsDisney]

Our cabin is at the back of the ship on Deck 5. We had Deck 5 on the Magic and loved it because of the limited number of rooms. We decided on doing an outside stateroom again this time. I like how Disney expanded the room to be able to sleep five with the extra murphy wall bed. The extra room will be welcomed especially since the kids will be two years older and much bigger! We were barely in our cabin last time too much fun elsewhere. On our first cruise in November 2007, we had a Cat 4 (free upgrade the day before we sailed from Cat 6). We had bad weather in the form of a hurricane so we never did really get to use that veranda. I wouldn't mind a free upgrade if they'll even have room on this new ship. One can only hope, right?

 

[mickeymo]

This will be our 4th Disney cruise as a family. March '04, May '06 (also a 2x castaway), and July '09. My dh and I cruise yearly on RCCL out of Galveston - it's very easy and convenient only 30 minutes to port.

We've always had interior cabins on the Magic - this will be our first balcony...

 

[IrishCowboy]

I have added your cruise to the Dreams cruise meet list...

 

[luvmy3sons]

Hi everyone! We are booked for this one too! We can't wait. It will be me, dh, ds 16, ds ds14 and ds 7 (at the time of the cruise).

 

[noahsmom]

Hey Mickeymo & Lori! It's great to see familiar cruisers on this trip!! It's been kind of crazy here the past couple of weeks. Noah has decided to start playing hockey again after 18 months away from it. We got him on a team and all his equipment situated. We also have a trip next summer that we're working on finalizing so this particular trip seems very far away. Next summer we are also doing a double dip. I'm very happy to go on the Wonder one last time. I like the Wonder better than the Magic. I'm not sure exactly what it is but it's my favorite. Can't wait to see the Dream though!!

We are currently booked on back to back cruises, this is the 1st half of that trip. It's exciting to be on the ship for 10 days - 4 days at Castaway Cay!!

Planning is half the fun - so let the fun begin!! Is it too late to start an FE list?

We were thinking of doing a back to back too! But do the 4 day in front of this cruise. I'm a DVC member, so I might see how many points it takes. Or, might just stay in the World. Last summer we went to Vero Beach for 3 days after and then just had one in Orlando with a day at Blizzard Beach to get closer to the airport for the 6:00 a.m. flight back to San Francisco.

It would be fun to start the FE list, but I can't imagine trying to keep it straight for the next 600 days or so!

 

[LoriLuvsDisney]

Bump -

Guess I'll keep bumping this for the next 600 days or so!

Hi, Everyone!

We'll be on the 7/19 cruise too! Cat 8. We've been on the Magic and the Wonder and soon...the DREAM! YAY!

This is a surprise for my family (luckily they do not read the boards). I'm keeping the surprise until this Christmas Day. It's been tough, but it's soooo worth keeping this secret. We haven't even planned out 2010 Disney trek yet, but I secretly have the 2011 trip planned. LOVE IT!!

We have not booked yet, but we plan to for DDs 5th B-day. We did a double dip in Sept. 2008 and loved it even though we missed out on our second CC day due to weather.

Ohh...I would've hated to miss the second CC day! We were lucky and had good weather both days in July 2008. Any way I can get the weather forecast for CC in July 2011?
