Question for everyone? So what are you doing for 2012/2013? Are you rebooking in 3 weeks? We are already booked for the June 23rd 2012 Fantasy Western. As for 2013 we have not decided. Most likely a Fantasy Eastern. We'll see.

Well as you know we have the Hawaii cruise and that was a transfer reservation we made on the Panana Canal cruise. We will book something most likely it will be a dummy date.

rebooking? yes absolutely
Sailing in 2012/2013 not unless God gifts us a boatload of money.

As it stands now, we are likely rebooking a Western and hoping to sail in 2014. Maybe by then you'll cycle back around and we can hit the same date

I gotta start checking the 2012 prices to get a gauge on deposits. Was really hoping to hear about 2013 by now.

I am really excited about '12!! Talked my DH into doing cruises we havent done yet! So we are doing a MR in Feb with two nights before and after at the Grand Californian, and a three day pass to Dland. Then in Sept we are doing a B2B Alaska/Repo! So all on the Wonder! Those we booked on our July Dream cruise. I will probably book a dummy cruise in Oct for '13. I know, I'm a lucky one!!

Yesterday was a Mommy/Onslow day where I took him to a local park we hadn't gone before. He loved it Walked a mile and half and got lots of doggie sniffing time in.
