Due to mechanical issues and bad weather, we missed our connection to Barcelona!

this totally stinks! We are working with DCL to rebook us on the June 29th cruise.

Take us off the FE list, cabin 6552.

I'm finally back home, too. What a fabulous trip. How about that weather?

It was great meeting so many of you at the cruise meet. Thanks to all the FE participants for the wonderful surprises. My kids loved coming "home" to find so many great treats.

Anyone else rebook? We signed up for Alaska next summer.

Pretty fun to have Jenny Garth and Peter Fracinelli from Twilight on the ship. Love those celebrity sightings.

Mam I teca doesn't open till 8 pm. Joy, hope you get to read this.
Forgot to get your last name so couldn't call Meridien. But I'll try.

Hi Annie! We did not know it opened at 8:00 and arrived around 7:15. I thought the restaurant looked permanently closed. At least we met in the airport!

Hope you had a great trip! We LOVED every minute -- especially the ABD group! We are deciding what to do / where to go next year!

Had a wonderful time on the trip. Thank you to the other FE exchangers, it was fun finding the different items. Weather could not have been better.

Had a FUNTASTIC time!!!! Mam i Teca had GREAT tapas...enjoyed meeting Alfonso and Jordi(owners of mam i Teca). Booked a 'dummy" date for our next cruise. Loved every minute of our cruise...sorry I missed the cruise meet. Felt lucky to have great weather the entire time (some days were HOT, but better than having a rainy day).

We had such a wonderful time! We re-booked for the Fantasy next fall, but may change it when the new itineraries come out, especially with the rumor going around that they may do the Eastern Med!

Thanks so much to everyone on the FE list. The kids had so much fun with this- my 5 year old thought the first day that Mickey and Minnie had done it, so we let her think that the rest of the trip. My husband and I had fun going around to all the different rooms/places on the ship to deliver. Wish we could have made it to the meet- but barely made it to the safety drill.

Question- we got a letter from one of the telephone operators on the 2nd day of the cruise that we had been chosen as the "Family of the Cruise" which meant we could order room service from any of the 3 restaurant menus for any meal and we also came back every day to find a special treat of fruit, cookies, cake, etc. in our room. Do they do this for everyone? Not sure why we were chosen if not- unless it was because the kids were so loud and messy they didn't want us in the dining rooms?!?

That was cool! We were the "Family of the Day" in Barcelona which meant we were able to board first. It was fun to be the first guests on the ship.

Very cool about the family of the day! I'm jealous. That must have been fun. They definitely don't do that for everyone! I would have loved the room service option. I was tired of cereal after a couple of days.
