January 19th Wonder from Miami

Thanks. Looking forward to a great time at sea.

I was curious about the same question, would we still like the Wonder after sailing on the Dream? We are looking forward to the smaller ship.

We have sailed Dream 3times and was our first cruise with Disney, First cruise ever for my husband we also sailed a 5 night on the Magic and honestly I Love them both. Each ship has a lot to offer I like the smaller ship because I don't feel like I miss anything I like the larger ship because there is more room but its a shorter trip so I feel I need to rush back on board because there was always something I wanted to do and didn't

Hi all!!

Just booked the cruise a couple days ago, my vacation finally got approved! It will be an anniversary and birthday trip for us! This will be my first time on the wonder! I have been on the 4 night dream and loved it!! Does anyone prefer the wonder over the dream? I booked Palo of course and a Jade cavern/ Xrail tour in cozumel. I did the FE for the first time on the dream and wish I could have gotten involved this time! Is it silly to bring my FE anyway???

Hope to see some of you on the boat! 1 week!

We had brought ours in the ast as well when joining late, def not silly you never know what surprises you'll get sometimes crew places items too!

I need to know if anyone else is in he same boat............I usually am ahead of the game get so anxious to vacay I pack two weeks in advance, I start on FE planning for the next trip before this one begins. Well I haven't packed anything yet :/ I'm really excited but behind oddly. I might start tonight, the only thing done and ready is a duffle bag of FE gifts! Labeled bagged and ready for check n

Im with many of you. I'd normally be packed by now. I think maybe the holidays have something to do with it ?!?!?! I feel way unprepared this time. But, we've been on a few cruises before so I think packing last minute won't be as daunting, I kinda have in mind everything I need...

Best of luck to all my fellow late packers!

Got our suitcases from the attic, but haven't packed yet. Last minute packing for us as usual!!!

 

[Bethann1959]

haven't started yet either

Just found out when I sent a message to an Etsy shop that I ordered from that my FE and other items have not even shipped yet!!!!!!!! And I ordered on Dec 5 with payment for a RUSH order!

I am NOT happy about this to say the least, but.........I won't let it ruin things for us. I might be putting out stapled together file folders or something for FE.

Bummer! I saw on the homemade FE board that Ikea has a 'fish extender' now. Its pysslingar; Try this link. If you live near an Ikea its not a bad substitute. For $5 you could take a sharpie to it and 'customize' it without worry! http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20215764/

dollar stores usually have something you can make into an FE as well

thanks for the suggestions! hoping it will get to me by friday night! luckily i live within driving distance to miami and will be home for ups/usps on friday. not leaving until around 8am on saturday.

speaking of---will it be possible to drop my husband, who has a lot of difficulty getting around-especially walking--off at the terminal and then one of us go park the car?

thought maybe someone would be familiar with port of miami.

thanks,
beth

While I have cruised out of Miami a few times, I have never done this but, I have seen others dropping off loved ones (and luggage) then going to park the car so, I don't think you will have a problem.

Does anyone know if there is an Alice in Wonderland Tea or a Princess Tea on this Cruise? I wanted to take something special to wear for my girls if there was...

We are here in Miami and watched some of the cruise ships sail out past south beach today. Can't wait to get on board. Is the meet and greet at 3?

Yes! The meet and greet is at 3 in the main lobby.

For those if you that do not live here in Miami, right now it is drizzling and cool (mid 60's). Hopefully it will be gone soon. Not too sure, haven't seem the news yet.
