So how crowded do you think its going to be with the new ships having more staterooms?

It doesnt seem to me that the ship has many more activities then the magic or wonder. So I am wondering if its going to be too crowded. What about castaway kay? I think i herd they are expanding it but im not sure so maybe someone can tell me for sure. Isnt our ship completely sold out also?

We have been busy this summer and with limited access to Internet at our campground, posting here is tough.

I am heading to Facebook to join the group.

We have all the applications for passports. I am also going back and forth on passports vs passcard for my DD. I need to investigate further.

I found at the beginning of the summer, in the Target $1 Spot 3 red mini totes for 50 cents! I am hoping to use them for a FE. I don't want to sign myself up yet and not be able to do it.

Back to school is rapidly approaching!

I can say yes they have been or still are expanding Castaway Cay, they made another Cookies BQQ area so that shouldn't be bad since two different areas to eat at and they expanded the family beach. I don't think we will have to worry about crowds, for one they have more new things on the ship so more for people to check out, at times depending what you do there might be lots of people, but not worse then in Disney World.

Would love to join FB group but do not have FB my off time is so consumed by the DIS boards I can't imagine trying to manage FB as well

We are headed on our next cruise Nov with 2 stops at CC. I will take pics and try to get as much info on the Dream and CC and report back I am sure that most of the expansion to CC should be done by then.

I don't think the ships will feel to crowded, we have been on both the Magic and Wonder when they were full and it never seemed to crowded. There are always lines for character meets and the opening of the restaurants and sometimes Shutters(photo area) and the retail shops are pretty crowded but you can go other times when there is almost no one there. We don't really know what the shipboard activities are going to be yet but everything is larger and there are more places to go.

Castaway Cay is expanding, more beach and activity areas and an additional buffet area for lunch further into the island. Serenity Bay is large and i have never seen it full.

This sailing is still showing availability for cabins with verandas. Sometimes cabins show sometimes they don't. After the paid in full date Dec. 1 we will have a better idea if it is sold out.

Hi everyone.

I joined the facebook group. Thanks for starting that.
Got my airfare, my post cruise hotel reservations (Beach Club). Now all I have to do is pay for everything LOL. If anyone has any boys looking for email friends, my nephews are interested.
Have a nice weekend

The facebook page was a great idea. Thanks. I need to start posting here more, hopefully once the kids are back in school, which is in 2+ weeks. Our flights are booked, so expensive coming from Canada. Booked our pre cruise stay for 7 nights at POP when the discounted rates came out this week. Got a fabulous rate, $62/night! Can't afford to splurge on a moderate quite yet. We have never stayed on site before. Can't wait.
