January 22,2009 3 day Wonder cruise meet

[dinnysuw]

Hello,
anyone out there cruisin' the Wonder on 1/22/2009? We just booked a land and sea. We did the Magic back in 9/2004 was supposed to be a 7 day but due to Hurrican Jeanne it was turned into a 5 day-still had a great time but missed Castaway Cay and we are looking forward to seeing it this time! Staying at Poly before sailing. Any fellow resort guests or cruisers give me a holler!

glad to "sea" that you found me! where are you staying at Disney? we are doing the Poly-first time there. we are surprising the kids for Xmas with the WDW trip then on the last day when they think we are heading back to the snow and cold of OHIO we are surprising them again with the cruise! We had so much fun on the Magic (despite Hurricane Jeanne trying to ruin everything!) Disney still tried to make the Magic happen. I was bound and determined to get back on one of her ships! You will love it! Do you know what cabin you are in yet? I hope more people find us so we can try to get this going. we had a nice one for my first cruise. It was nice especially when all the plans got changed around (left on monday instead of Saturday-left out of port everglade instead of canaveral) we ended up hotel hoping for 3 nights with people we met on these boards and got most of our info from others from the boards as well! hope to be talking soon.

Hi Cruisers-

We will be on this cruise!!! We are doing the land & sea package and we were originally scheduled for the the last week in January, but due to school schedules, we've moved it up a week. It is me, my DH, and DD's 12 & 8. This will be our third cruise and we'll be staying at Saratoga Springs, and I can't wait. I always loved Disney, but after doing our first cruise, I've become a Disneyholic. I just can't get enough!

 

[dinnysuw]

Welcome binks and GoDeacs!

 

[binks]

If you have kids and you are bringing them, what ages are they? I'd love for my DD's, 8 & 12, to have some buddies before they even board.

 

[dinnysuw]

My twins r 13 DD and DS this is a surprise trip so unfortunately they won't be able to email before the cruise. DD is into the typical girl stuff Disney channel, soccer, webkinz. I would love for them to meet and have a buddy on board!

 

[Gabbypick]

I will be on the 3 night cruise.. This is my first cruise on Disney Wonder but 3rd Disney Cruise. I will be traveling with Friends who have 2 DD 4 & 8. Looking forward to it. We are staying at Pop Century prior to the cruise.

Hey Fellow Cruisers!


Well, I just got back from the special 3 day Magic Cruise on September 24 and booked to go again for January 22, 2009 cruise!! If you have been on a Disney Cruise Line, you know how addicting cruising is! We have a big bunch cruising with us this go around both old friends and new friends!

The group consist of:

Me - Maria - 33 - this will be my 8th Disney Cruise!!
DH - Isaac - 33 - this will be his 5th Disney Cruise!

DF - Jason - 31 - this will be his 2nd Disney Cruise!
DF - Eleanor - 27 - this will be her 2nd Disney Cruise!

DF - Jon - 22 - not sure how many cruises
DF - Max - 22

DF - Tony - 24 - 3rd Disney Cruise
DF - Joe - Tony's friend


Isaac, Jason, Eleanor and I went on our first cruise together February 2008 to celebrate Eleanor and Isaac's birthday. Jason and Eleanor fell in love with cruising and Disney Cruising Line!! They can't wait to go back!!

We will be celebrating Eleanor's Birthday - the day we board - Jan 22 - and Isaac's birthday - Jan 27 on this cruise - lots of fun!

Jon, Max, and Tony are new friends that Ashley and I met on our cruise in September who loved that cruise so much that they booked this one with us!! We will definately be closing down Route 66 every single night of this cruise!

So, we are all very much looking forward to this sailing - only 15 weeks and 2 days left to go now!! It's kind of bad to wish time to pass so quickly, but hopefully with Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's to keep us entertained between now and then, it will go fast!

Looking forward to getting to know you all over the next couple of months!

Hi All

Hubby and I booked this cruise this morning!!! Bringing DD she will be 8 at sailing.

Counting down the days LOL

 

[smh071]

My wife (Chris) and I (Scott) booked this cruise today for our 15th anniversary. It will be our 4th Disney Cruise but our first without the children. Has anyone else been on a Disney Cruise without their children? Did you feel guilty?

We are looking forward to staying up late, sleeping in, and having a good adult time.

We look forward to meeting our fellow cruisers!!

 

[binks]

Glad to see our thread is starting to get some more activity .

Maelcu - My 8 year old DD will be on this cruise, so maybe we could have the girls meet or email each other ahead of time.

Dinnysuw - maybe we could do the same for my 12 year old DD, once your kids find out the good news !!

If you're doing the World before or after....where is everyone staying? We're doing the land and sea package and for the first time since we started cruising they offered Saratoga Springs as an option, so we're going to try it.

 

[maelcu]

Hi All

binks-My DD is so happy that there will be another 8 yr old girl -hahahahah like there are not going to be any kids on the ship hahaha-

We are still trying to figure out what we are doing before the cruise LOL, we are thinking about driving and just spreading it out of a couple of days.

We haven't been back on the Wonder since 2005 I can't stand the wait DD is handling it better than me.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

My wife and I will be going this date also. Will be celebrating birthday and Anniv. Fourteen yrs for us. Will be first cruise without the kids.

We are doing our 1st DCl in 2 days. Kids are really excited about this. They have been on Carnival twice and RC once. Have high hopes for Disney.

 

[binks]

doc005-welcome to our humble thread.

I know you're going to fall in love the DCL. Enjoy you're immediate trip and we'll see you in Jan.

dinnysuw - we've changed our pre-trip from Saratoga Springs to the Poly, so maybe we'll bump into you there !

 

[niciggy]

Hi all-we are going on the 22-25th also. We had two DD who will be 9 and 5 at sailing, but don't know we are going. But are shy at first, and I'm glad to see others with kids around this age who are looking to make friends! I just read about FE, am new to the board (for cruising) this is our first disney cruise. Can someone explain FE and would anyone like to do it?
Thanks so much!
This was a spur of the moment decision. I sat at the computer, and booked.
YIKES I CAN'T WAIT

Binks-I'm from VA, with 2 girls, wondering if we can start an FE "group" on our trip. Are you interested? It sounds like so much fun! I'd love to get some people to do this. I know it's more popular on longer trips, but I think we could still have fun. What do you say? Anyone else?
Nicole
P.S. My girls are 9 and 5.

 

[niciggy]

okay you ladies...(we're usually the planners, no?) I am going to keep harrassing you guys until we've got a group of people who are interested in getting their kids together. Myself included, we've got a couple of "surprise cruisers", so maybe we could meet sometime before the kids activities get going. Anyone been on the wonder before where we could meet? I'm completely fine with coordinating, just need some intel.

By the way, can you tell I"m excited????????????????????????????????????

Ava-9
Lola-just turned 5
Hubby-old as dirt (just kidding)
