Fantasy- 7 night Western- August 4, 2012

[Sunshineminnie]

Hi everyone and a special hi to bbaltes who lives in WI. We used to live in Beaver Dam and loved going to Madison. Hope everyone is having a good spring so far. Can't believe we are getting close to our sailing day. I can't wait until we get trip reports, Navigators and any other info. from the first trip. Hope everyone has a great weekend

I am getting soooo excited too! It's been fun reading some of the quick reports from those on the MV. I am looking forward to hearing from Jojo when they return.

The trip seems so much closer now that we are making our summer plans with the kiddos. It will be here before you know it!

Take care everyone!

Hi Everyone! I haven't posted for awhile. Sorry, I have been wrapped up in my Canada cruise that happens in June. I am finally getting excited for this one. Just started to read some of the comments from the people who sailed on the MV. Sounds like everyone had a great time and that things went smoothly. I was wondering if anyone has decided on what excursions they are going to do. I have never sailed to these ports. Any advice is appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

We will be joining you on this cruise. We are doing back-to-back cruises from August 4 to 18. We have only been on the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder so are very excited to be going on the Disney Fantasy.

There will be myself, husband, four daughthers (ages 11, 14, 16, 27) and our granddaughter (2 years old).

See Ya Real Soon.

Canada and the Caribbean? How fun! Reading the comments from the MV makes it seem much more real. I am getting really excited too. I swear I think about it every day!

We are just going diving on the port days. It seems like the ashore time is pretty short so we won't be trying to fit anything else in. We will probably head to Margaritaville while in GC. They have a water slide in the restaurant that's pretty fun for lunch. I have heard good things about the ruins in Costa Maya.

Back to back? That sounds like soooo much fun! That will be great to do both itinerary's! I bet you are going to LOVE it!

I posted in here yesterday, but now it's gone! Maybe I'm just overlooking it. Anyway, this will be our second Disney cruise. We took one last year on the Disney Dream. It was fantastic! My husband earned this trip through his employer. Sure helps with expenses!! I can't wait to "meet" some of you before the trip.

I would also like to join the FE. I don't have enough posts to PM yet, so I hope this gets to the right person.

HI!!!!!! So glad to have you!
That's cool that you have sailed on the Dream already. It will be neat to see the differences.

You will love the longer cruise too!

We sailed on the Dream last year. I am excited to compare these 2 ships. I wish that the people off the MV would be posting more

I am so excited too! I think that karriemouse is in charge.

Karriemouse - so you have a list compiled so far with names, ages, room #s and favorite characters?

I hope that everyone is having a great weekend!

Hi all!

We just got back from spring break! We went to Oregon and Washington to visit my DB and his kids. My mom joined us too. What a great time with the family. We got to see my DB's F15 squadron fly. We went to his base and saw the planes up close. Soooo cool!

We hiked around Oregon. It was so green and pretty. We really enjoyed all of the water falls.

And then............ up to Mount Bachelor for SNOW!!!!! and SKIING!!!!! and the best snowball fight ever!

It snowed two feet while we were there. I had missed the snow so much this year and was so psyched to have so much of it! It snowed 18" over night one night (which lead to the epic snowball fight).

Such a beautiful place. Such great skiing and such great times with my family!

Although we had a great time, it's always nice to be home and see the critter's. I guess that it rained the whole time we were gone. The rains greened everything up. The redbuds are in full bloom. What a gorgeous ride home!

Now that we got our fill of snow, I'm ready for sunshine and spring time!

I hope everyone is having a great spring so far. Take care!

We just got back from Oregon (Hermiston/Umatilla area). We made several trips to Washington throughout the week. We did not have any snow, but it was freezing.

Hi! We were on the Christmas cruise too! Fabulous cruise! Our daughters probably know each other. My daughter's name is Raven. It seems like every cruise that we go on, she has a friend from a previous cruise sailing too.

Hi, everybody! I hope everybody had a wonderful spring break. We were in Oregon. My DH's grandmother was very sick, so we decided to go up for a visit. We arrived at 5 PM, and she passed away at 10:05 PM that evening. I am so happy that my DH was able to say good-bye. It was an emotional week full of love and family.

I am looking forward to making our plans this weekend. We will be meeting at my parent's house for a planning party.

Take care and talk to you soon.

WElcome home!!!!!!!! I am so glad to hear that you had fun! I can't wait to hear all about it!

My only question for you is dinner rotation. I think that we want to try for Palos one night and maybe skip the MDR one night to just hang out and relax a bit. We don't want to miss anything really special. What nights do you suggest to skip the MDR?

I am so sorry to hear or your DH's grandmother's passing. What a blessing to have been able to see her that evening. I hope that your family is doing okay.

Take care!

Hello everyone my family will be setting sail on this cruise as well. We are extremly excited, there is myself 47, my dh 45, and my dd 14. This will be our first cruise and who better to do it with. I have been looking at all the fabulous links on this web site and must say that I am just about to do a pee pee dance with excitement. The food looks scrumptous, the ship looks fabulous, and the reviews are great. Our room is 10566, its an ocean view with a verandah. Has anyone stayed in it, or near it? I am eager to know if there is alot of noise in that area. Right now Idon't think I really care because I plan on doing so much that I will probably die when I finally go to bed. Now I have been trying to learn about the FE. If someone could e-mail me with the info. I would love to know if I have to make my own FE, and if I join the group how many gifts would I have to make, and would it have to be one ifr every day or just a one time thing for each person, etc. I am really interested and curious about this. Thank you for all you can tell me.

Welcome!
It is going to be a fabulous, fantasy cruise!

There are no final FE numbers yet. You do not have to give gifts out everyday.
Usually, we give a family gift that all members enjoy, and we deliver it on the first few days of our cruise.

Happy to have you aboard!
