Fantasy February 16, 2013 - 7 Night Western Cruise Meet

[DizJohn]

I just got an email that PassPorters Disney Cruise Line 10th Edition is in Pre-Order and if you can download Preview the first 1-5 chapters if you preorder.. They also had a coupon code for 30% off "Friends"

**I enjoy these books and have been reading/using since the first ones came out I have no connection to the publisher or any authors**

Thanks for the FB page I did do a "like" and I posted once but I am upset that FB has changed so much... I want to be a part of the conversation but I don't want people yet to know we are going on this sailing..

After my last post my wife commented that it came up on her wall...

I'll be a lurker on the FB page

I am singing your tune DizJohn. I am not a big fb fan either, but what another sailing did was make it a "closed group". This made the conversation more private.

Either way I prefer these boards, but I would be more apt to post to Facebook if the group went private.

HI and aboard!

 

[MakinMemories4MyKids]

Good day everyone!
I was wondering~those of us that are driving and staying over night at a hotel near the port...will you be doing the park and ride or will you be driving yourself to port? What is the difference between the two? This will be the first time I am driving to Florida for the cruise and wanted to know what was my best bet. I haven't even looked (no idea) into the hotels by the port yet. I am kind of a hotel snob and would hate to pick one and hate it. I know it's only one night but it has to be **** and span I get grossed out easily lol. I really don't care about free breakfasts but if they have it that's a nice touch Soooooo, what's everyone doing??

Hi there! The two most popular hotels at the port are Radisson and Country Inn and Suites. I called both of them just this past Friday to check into the difference and here's what I found out. The Radisson charges $4.00 per person each way unless you get the Park & Cruise package. SO....if you have a rental car, the best way to do it if you have several people in your group is one person to drive everyone to the port and then go back to the hotel and park the car and take the shuttle back. The Country Inn and Suites does NOT charge for the shuttle...regardless of which room/package you get. I also found another place that is VERY cheap at Cocoa Beach. It's called Wakulla Suites. Does anyone know anything about that place? The reviews are pretty much half and half....one person loved it, the next person hated it.

We live in south Florida so we will be on a DVC stay in Animal Kingdom Lodge. We managed to get a CL room Then we will drive to the port from there in the morning and park at the port parking garage. Last time we stayed at the Radisson near the port for the night and then parked at the port. The suite was clean and spacious. No complaints.

I guess you're in the same boat as me then I have heard of the Raddison and country inn over there but still haven't looked at prices. If we were to do the $4.00 charge it couldn t be a big deal because it's just 4 of us. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions

Good to know Yhe raddison)
Do you know what the price is to park at the port parking garage? I don't know this either lol. omG I am a rookie at this...I usually fly in the day before stay at a disney resort then have them drive us to port. One time we flew in to MCO the day of cruise (i'll never do day of again) and just did the transfers straight to port. This is alllllll new to me (driving in)
