I see that we have two kiddo's who will be celebrating their birthdays on the ship! And a grown up as well! I hope I can add some birthday stuff into their gifts!!

Natale - I just celebrated the big 30 this past weekend.

I am so ready to get our room assignment!! Can't belive it will be at least another few weeks. I keep watching the thread about the Cat 12 assignments to see what cruises are getting their info now... Fun to watch.

ugg... 30
I don't want to get caught up with numbers but 29 just sounds so much better then 30.

I'm looking forward to getting our room assignments too!!! But I'm trying to to be as crazy as I was last year about it. Last year this time I was checking every day.... sometimes 3-4 times a day. Even though I had read that everyone gets them around the 30-40 day mark.
I think we got ours around day 33... upgraded from a cat 12 to a cat 9!!! Hoping for the same pixie dust this time - but not counting on it.

I checked today and if your booking for a party of two, most of the cat lvls are still available. But if your booking for a family you can only book cat 4 or 5. I bet a bunch of us get calls soon for paid upgrades!

So I thought I would try and getting our group talking again.

Here's a question for you....
What is the one thing that your looking the most forward to?

My answer...
I can't wait to go to the Palo bunch with my mom!!
I've never been to Palo and it is going to be fun to share it with her.

Hi Nat, you are going to be so amazed when you get to see all the foods and deserts and choices you're going to have at Palo brunch. It's so awesome. I'm going to brunch also on the sea day at 10:30 am. When are you and mom going?

My FAVORITE thing to do on this cruise is going to be the lazy river at Atlantis with DH John on his birthday. I can't wait to see Atlantis again. I have only been there one time and that's definitely not enough...it's so big. Birthday cheers in Paradise (Island) literally.

Who is dressing up for formal night? We weren't going to at first, but I think we changed our minds. Now we're going to. Here's what I'm wearing:

Here's the dress....silver with black lace overlay.

It goes with this wrap....velvet with satin ruffle trim.

Shoes and bag.

And just to get my Princess on....my tiara to be worn the way Audrey Hepburn is wearing it.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Have I told you all that I got a stateroom onboard the DREAM's maiden voyage? I am so psyched. Me and John are doing this cruise and then afterwards we only need two more cruises to reach platinum. So we picked a B2B Bahamas cruise for a total of 7 nights to do in Oct. Then we'll sail platinum for the first time on the DREAM. I'm so thrilled I can't stand it.

Who knew so many years ago that me and John would become addicted to DCL and want to cruise every vacation. Well, that's what happened and here we are now.

Ella, what a beautiful dress. We are planning to dress up for formal night too. We don't often get a chance to.

I am looking forward to seeing Atlantis. Last time we went we did a snorkeling trip instead.

Hi Roxy, Thanks. We feel the same way. We love to get dressed up and this is our only opportunity to do so. We enjoy it. I can't wait to see what everybody is wearing....everyone always looks so beautiful on formal night.

Are you dressing up on Pirate Night? I don't know if we will or not. Maybe we'll just bring black and red or black and white outfits. That will fit in and we won't need to bring our costumes. We're trying to pack light. We're flying instead of driving. We usually drive and bring the kitchen sink. ha.

Tell me all about your snorkeling trip. I have two more Bahamas cruises that I'm doing this year. I wanted to do a snorkel trip too. Do you know what kind of boat it was? Do you remember where you went snorkeling? What did you see? I'd appreciate hearing about your trip and how you liked it or not. Thanks.

What is the one thing that your looking the most forward to?
My husband, Jeff, said sunshine and warm weather (and towel animals).
I'm looking forward to ... both kids in the kid's club. Last time we sailed Disney I had a 1 year old and a 4 year old. This time the girls are 6 and 9. I want to spend time with them and enjoy them but I also look forward to my own free time too.

 

[AnnMarBill]

DD - Mary-Kate's top three are going to Castaway Cay, going to the Lab and seeing all the Disney characters!
DH - John's reply was short and sweet: R & R
Me - I have to agree with DH and DD about Castaway Cay! I look forward to seeing Mickey, too!

 

[mommy2paris]

We are getting excited as well! THe girls don't know yet, so they can't be excited, lol!

I think I am most excited for the Dolphin excursion and my girls first cruise. My oldest dd (4 1/2) has looked at our honeymoon pics a million times and keeps saying how she can't wait to meet dolphins when she grows up. To say she in love with dolphins is an understatement!! She is going to be so excited!! I am sure that we will do it again when the girls are older, but sometimes I think it is fun to experience awesome things at a young age because they are just so amazed!

I am also excited for the FE exchange but still struggling with ideas for gifts.

We are dressing up for formal night, but not over the top... DH will wear dress pants, shirt, and tie (that is dressy for him, lol). Girls will be wearing fancy dresses and I will wear a nice dress as well with hose and heels (dressy for me too...) We will all be coordinating in red, black,and white. I bet everyone will look great!

I can't wait to find out our room #... Dh gave me the go ahead if we get a cheap offer to upgrade to a porthole room. I was too cheap to pay it upfront, but feel $99 or so is worth it. When do you think we might start getting calls?

Talk to you all soon!

I'm looking forward to my kid's reaction when we tell them, and then when they see the boat, and when they see Mickey . . .etc.

I'm really looking forward to Castaway Cay. Last time my husband got to enjoy it more than me because I had 22 month old with me who was a bit fussy and needed a long nap in our room. This time I am going Parasailing, and getting a cabana massage!

 

[Baidoo]

I'm looking forward to a little R&R. For our last cruise I thought we had to do everything and it was too much. With this being our second Disney cruise, we'll be able to enjoy it more without feeling we're missing anything. My husband is looking forward to the dinners (and I am too). Our daughter doesn't know until Christmas. She keeps talking that she wants to go on another cruise some time soon. She'll be so surprised. She was five on our last cruise and really didn't like the kid's club very much. We'll probably keep her with us most of the time and just hang out.
