Hi All!
We are looking forward to joining you the 29th. While this is our 10th Disney cruise, it will be our first with children. Joining us are our dear friends boys. They are cousins, ages 15 and 14.

We will have our FE with us and goodies for our fellow cruisers. It should be fun for the boys to deliver.

Is there a meet planned?

See you soon..

Hi there. I'm not sure if there is a F/E exchange, when it was originally discussed there was only a couple of people booked on the sailing.

I mentioned a meet at Skyline after second seating the first night. I'm not sure if there are any takers but that's where I plan to be (barring seasickness).

Here is a link to my pre-trip report that has my picture, so if anyone sees me around the ship please feel free to say Hi.

Hi and welcome!!
Unfortunately there is no FE exchange organised. I suggested it once but nobody really answered.
I even made a FE for my friends and bought some stuff because I was sure it would happen ( thankfully I bought stuff which I really like myself ).
Maybe we can still organise something or is it too late??

I would be interested in a meet, I'm just not sure I can stay up so late ( my body will be 6 hours ahead of yours'). But I'll really try.

 

[Tigger&Bubba]

Thanks Mimmi and SoCaOC-Mom for the welcome. I sent you both PM's.

I sure feel late to the party. Booking last minute has it's advantages and disadvantages. I did manage to get ressies at Palo the last night and the Spa treatments, excursions, dinner seating we desired. So life is good
Would have liked a cabana on CC but I have to laugh at myself for even thinking that could happen this late in the game.

I'm excited Every Disney cruise makes me feel as good the first!

See you soon...

I'm open to a small scale F/E exchange but because I have to pay for my luggage on the airplane, I didn't want to have to pay a bunch of $$$$ for stuff that might end up getting tossed.

Glad to hear you got want you wanted. I'm still looking to get Palo brunch but other than that, so did I. We asked for late seating when we booked but I was surprised to see when I was going my on line bookings that early dining was still available since it is usually wait listed.

I feel so excited with the date approaching I don't know how you guys could have contained yourselves being booked months in advance. I feel I would have died of anticipation before the date would finally have arrived.

Are you guys planning on having magnets on your doors? I've never been on a Disney Cruise nor have I decorated my door before but it looks fun and I think the kids would enjoy it.

I debated getting my own FE and putting gifts in there for the kids on a daily basis because I wasn't sure if it was too late to sign up for it and I hadn't read anywhere about having one. I read a trip report where the individual did that for their child. I keep reading reports where the FE was the kids favorite part of the cruise.

I will also be on this sailing! Cannot wait as I have not been on the Dream yet! I am sailing with a girlfriend....as a "Mom's Getaway." Not looking forward to telling my kids that I am going on the Dream without them....

We are 2 adults, but have participated in an FE before and enjoyed it! I would participate if the numbers were on the smaller side! Let me know!

 

[platinumcruzer]

Hi To everyone...
Just made our reservations today...last minute decision...can't wait, as the last voyage on the DREAM was a year ago for the inaugural...Looking forward to meeting you all!

 

[jilljill]

I'm just going to come out and say it .....looks like a bunch of CM's have booked this cruise at the last minute. If so.....I really do miss those days.

 

[jilljill]

no we didnt book a guarantee, just verandah...i know my cabin number can change...changed 3 days before our last dcl trip...im just excited to see a number in general, makes it more real that we are finally getting to go on another much needed vacation

Don't listen to my husband! YES, we booked a GTY.

You obviously have a full time job trying to keep your DH straight.

what my wife is trying to say is.....i dont know what the heck i am talking about!

so yes...i appologize for my rambling ways but hey...i am who i am

and yes we are a lot of fun

As long as you just show up with bags in hand you'll be good.

 

[CAJUNS IN CANADA]

Hi There, Shipmates,

Finally decided to join the Disboards. Looking forward to joining everyone on January 29th for a few days of (hopefully) warm weather away from the cold of Canada.

We will be on board with our boys (14 & 5). This is our third voyage with Disney and first on the Dream. Can't wait to slide down the Aqua Duck!

Just booked this week and have a bunch to do before we sail so wish us luck!

See you onboard!

 

[ClubDis]

Just found out some info I thought I'd share with you all. Did a search, but couldn't find anything posted about this yet. Ridley Pearson, author of the Kingdom Keeper series, is going to be onboard your sailing filming a segment of "Disney 365" for the Disney Channel! I don't know if that will excite any of you or your kids, but it's sure making me wish I had the $$$ to join you guys!

 

[SoCaOC-Mom]

Hi new arrivals, a couple of you mentioned a F/E, so for it's my family- I am going to cover my friends in a separate cabin- mimmi and her family- her friends in a seperate cabin- tigger and bubba (with two guests).

I don't know it the best way is to send a group pm- or a post to get everyone listed.

 

[SoCaOC-Mom]

I'm just going to come out and say it .....looks like a bunch of CM's have booked this cruise at the last minute. If so.....I really do miss those days.

Were you a CM?

 

[SoCaOC-Mom]

I wasn't sure how to send a pm to a bunch of people so maybe this will work. Please list your info for those who want in, it might be easier to quot the last person-as the list grows then print it from there once it's compiled. mimmi- and friends, tigger and bubba, caribear, and perhaps ianne_0325

I'm not sure when the deadline should be since we are getting so close for people who want added here on in, but I can cover those who just joined so far since it's only a two extra cabins.

Here it goes

Martina -41
Dyan-41
Ryanne-4.5
Reese- 3 (well almost 3)

Stateroom 6564

Michelle-
Tommi
Tia- 9
Alli- 6
