Mar 28 2010 Wonder 4-Night Bahamas - The Tim Hawkins Cruise

[Luv2trav]

Anyone else cruising on this date? Looks like our cruise might be sold out? It's not coming up on Disneycruise website.

We booked this cruise for Spring Break too! We just couldn't pass up the Kids Sail Free. We cruised last year on the Magic for Spring Break and while the cruise was FULL, you'd never know it, even in the kids clubs. I have 2 DDs, (8 and almost 6 when we cruise). This will be our 7th DCL cruise - 3 on the Magic and this will be #4 on the Wonder.

We returned from WDW last week and there was a message waiting from us from DU about the kids sail free. We were undecided up to that point, but at that price, it was a no-brainer! It will be our first cruise ever and we'll be travelling with DDs, ages 6 and 8. We can't wait - Santa's going to be extra nice to the kids again this year! We would welcome any advice from the seasoned cruisers!

DH and I just returned yesterday from a quick trip to the World - first time in over 20 years it was just the 2 of us! We had a great time but now I need to start figuring out this cruise stuff I love it that we are finally getting people on our meet site. We would also like to do the FE but I'm not exactly sure how it works/gets organized! Does someone volunteer to do that - (kind of like the old photopass shares?)

Anyone know if the CS will book 5 to a room? DH and I stayed at the Atlantis about 9 years ago. It was beautiful. I don't think we can do the day there because first of all, my mom is coming and if she wants to go, that would make 6 of us and I'm sure we would have to get 2 rooms which would be too much $$$$. We are looking at the pirates museum tour and may just walk around a bit then head back to the boat. Anybody have any other ideas?

My last cruise we organized the cruise with 40 people participating in the meet. FE can be made or bought... we'd need to wait until a bit closer, then someone needs to get information together and lists of who is in what cabin, ages, etc.
My girls, 15 and 16 are willing to play but are getting abit old for all the princess stuff, they are ready to hang out at the STACK(if that's what it is called on the WONDER, the teen place) but are always in for fish extender games.
our stateroom number has changed a couple of times but we are on level 6. More info to come....

Start asking questions! Our girls have cruised Disney many times and we all love to talk DIsney cruises. Rachel and Sarah were 7 and 8 on their first....

I see all these girls on board, but I have boys.. 8 and 6... We are looking forward to our first Disney cruise too.

What is FE?

 

[tink_lover]

Fish extenders that hang outside your door and people place little treats/gifts. My two boys will be 7 and 8 when we cruise next spring. PM me if you'd like to try to get the boys emailing each other before the cruise.

That would be awesome. I would love for them to know someone before the trip. I just need to teach my DS 8 how to use email.. Have you cruised with Disney before?

Welcome..It's our first cruise too.. We are trying to learn all the details.

 

[tink_lover]

First time cruisers as well. And my mom is coming with us also - we have 2 rooms. We were originally scheduled for this October, but then found out the Wonder was going into dry dock. We moved the reservation around and finally decided on spring break. It will be fun getting to know everyone.

 

[LadyRob]

Welcome aboard everyone!!!

alikat99, I think I remember you from the boutique/custom clothing board. Are your girls still into customs? My daughter is but I don't post on that board anymore.

 

[alikat99]

Hey LadyRob - you are correct, I did hang around the disboutiquers thread. It moved too fast for me, so I just couldn't keep up. I haven't sewn anything in a while, but my mom (NanasCustomCreations) still does a TON of customs for the girls. I'll definitely have their matching dresses for the cruise. Mom made them a DCL one about a year ago that still fits them, along with their mickey pirate dresses and some others.

Hey Mickeyworld,
We currently live in Cincinnati, but orginally for Boston. Just found out our neighbors booked a cruise in February, so I have asked that they take notes for us.

Is anyone creative enough to come up with a good name for our group?
