We enjoyed Palo. We had the brunch. It gave us an opportunity to have some time to ourselves without the kids.

We love Palo brunch and dinner!

Ready for a new member? So glad to be here.

We were booked in a category 6 and just switched to a 11 inside cabin on deck 7...I figured we would probably not be spending that much time in the cabin and it was worth it to save the $1400 difference...

I am having some second thoughts - is having a verandah that much better? <sigh>

We live in Canada and are looking forward to celebrating DD's 6th birthday on the cruise next May.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone better before we cruise!

Indigo

We had a double wide verandah and barely used it!!!!!

Wow I just found this thread. We will be on this 7-day cruise too. This was originally booked on the ship on New Year's 2006 but we had to keep bumping it up due to family circumstances.

On the cruise will be:
Me 50 something
DH 50 something
DS 20

We are in a category 6. I was tempted to rebook in a 12 but my husband is one of those balcony snobs. We do have the 10 percent discount and stateroom credit.

The last cruise we did was a 4-day RCCL and my son and I could not stop comparing it to Disney. I can't wait to see the Magic again.

are you in Sarasota? We live just off the south bridge to Siesta and I work for the hospital.

Yes, I was born and raised in Sarasota. All my children attended the same elementary and middle school that I did. My daughters graduated from SHS (like dad). My son graduated from RHS just like his Mom (many moons ago).

Unfortunately, this cruise has been rescheduled ,any times due to family members being in the hospital you work at.

My eldest daughter's boyfriend attended UF School of Law. Believe it or not he doesn't even like football. We have taught him all he knows. So glad the Gators will be in the championship game. We need the title back in Florida where it belongs.

hey guys - sorry to bore/overload with pics. but wow I am so excited.....this is probably the EARLIEST we have booked a DCL cruise! Last cruise was over a year out!

 

[Hudson5&Lennon3]

we would be receiving a credit of $912. If that isn't some Disney magic I don't know what is!

Wow! WTG! When I called, they said it was exactly the same as when I booked (it's hard to tell online since we've got the 10% rebooking discount). I'll definitely keep checking, though!

Here are our most recent family pictures....These were taken in May at our wedding.

Beautiful pictures & beautiful family! Thanks for sharing!

to all our other new members! sarasotamom & lillygator, I'll get you added and also make updates to disgirl83 & shasess. We're getting quite the group going now!

Thanks, lillygator, for sharing all those awesome photos of your family! They're making me relive our cruise, too! I can't wait to go back!

 

[lillygator]

hey there - I think sarasotamom is not cruising due to nedical circumstances.


thanks for the welcome. Sorry to post so many pice but I have been so in the dumps lately, now getting to book this at a deal I am reliving our past cruises.......

 

[Hudson5&Lennon3]

hey there - I think sarasotamom is not cruising due to nedical circumstances.

I think they have rescheduled it several times before and have now decided on this one. I guess I'm assuming that since she just came across our thread & posted for the first time a few hours ago.

Yes, we are going on this cruise. We have had to reschedule 3 times (I think) in the past.

I am so SORRY!!
I have a bad habit of skimming the threads - great to have you aboard!
