13+ years ago I used Disboards A LOT to learn about DCL. Keep in mind there were only 2 ships both sailing out of PC. BUT there was another website run by a lady who was up to 50+ cruises even back then. She listed detailed trip reports and always started her cruises in the spa. She wanted to be getting a massage when the ship pulled out.

Does anyone know who I am taking about? Is she still active? She was a bit unique.

I think you're thinking of Barb's Castaway Club. There hasn't been anything posted since 2016 and she hasn't posted a trip report since 2007 but you can still find her site at http://www.castawayclub.com/
 
I think that it was Barb. I just wondered if she was still active. She was very passionate in those days.
Thanks
 

Yes, definitely Barb. She used to live in Chicago, then she and her husband retired near WDW. We once had a lengthy email discussion about all the different cruise lines' "return cruiser" perks, and how DCL fell far short of what other companies did. I often wondered what happened to her and her site... hope she and her husband are well.
 
Glad you posted this!! I’ve wondered about her too. I talked to her via email and once while on one of our cruises. She worked just down the street from where I used to live in the suburbs of Chicago.
