May 18, 2008 4-day Wonder--Anyone going?

[tigger334]

My dh and I are also going on the Wonder on May 18th. This is our first cruise for the both of us. I am so excited. Not so sure about him. He thinks he is going to be bored! I don't think so!

Was anyone able to book the Brunch at Palo? If so congrats! I tried and it was full!

Oh, by the way, my name is MaryBeth and my dh's is Michael.

I didn't get brunch either... We are doing Palo dinner on the first night.

You can only do brunch on the 7 day and up cruises, not on the Wonder.

I got the Palo on our last night. I'd like to book another night, too, but it's not letting me. Anyone know? Are we not allowed to book a 2nd night?

Wow, May can't get here soon enough!

Hi Folks,
Glad to have found this link!!!!!

Just booked (& paid!!) for our 2nd Disney cruise on the Wonder.......

We're Mark & Rachel & have 3 kids Emily (11), Lucie (9) & Matt (5) & from Nottingham, England

Disney converts having visited every year since we married in 94. Did our first cruise in Aug/ Sept 07 & couldn't wait to book again ... especially with 2 stops at Castaway now! Loved it last year & already counting down the days! Doing the 4 day cruise then 10 days in Orlando

My girls would love to email any other kids who'll be on board at the same time .... they made some great friends in the Oceaneer club last time and they've all kept in contact. Drop me a message and I'll share their email addresses or MSN details if anyones got kids who'd like to get in touch before leaving!

Look forward to seeing everyone!!!!!
Mark

I have been pretty quiet because I am in the last 7 weeks of my Masters program. The cruise is my graduation present.

I am so excited that if I think about it too much I won't write my papers!

We're going! I'm so excited! This is DH & my 2nd Disney Cruise and our first wedding anniversary is May 19th

And we got one of the secret porthole rooms! We're doing 2 days at Disney and then heading to the ship

I CAN"T WAIT

 

[klcason]

Tiffani,

We will be in connecting SPH rooms also, which are you in??

Sorry, I am quiet by nature......but my children are so not. The cute 6 year old loud red head boy with the glasses and the embarrassed 9 year old sister are mine. I am sure you won't be able to miss us!

I will try to post more often. This is our first cruise with the kiddos. We will be heading to the world for 4 days after our cruise. So excited!!

My mom, 10-year-old daughter, and I will also be on this cruise, which is our second Disney cruise. Our first Disney cruise was cut short by Hurricane Jeane, and we didn't get to stop at Castaway Cay, so we're trying it again during non-Hurricane season! We're also celebrating my "big" birthday (but I won't mention which one!).

My daughter might be interested in emailing with some girls around her age prior to the cruise, but I don't know how to do that without posting my email address here for all the world to see. So if someone can tell me how to do this, that would be great.

We are also staying in a SPH room, and it looks like a few others on this thread are as well, so I'm sure we'll be seeing each other. We're staying at WDW 3 nights prior to and 3 nights after the cruise, so we're very excited!

Hi Chris

In options settings if you have "enable private messagess" turned on then people can click you name & send you a private message with email contact details on etc. (It doesn't look like you have this enabled so I can't send you a message.) If you click my name on the left it should come up with "send private message" if you do this & include an email address I'll get my girls to reply.

My 3 are 2 girls aged 11 & 9 and my son is aged 5. Were from Nottingham England & this will be our 2nd cruise. Family loved it last year!!!!

My girls would love to email & chat to anyone they might meet in the kids club whilst on board - just drop me a message & I'll get them to reply!


I didn't mean to stir it up with my post above - just thought it was quiet with not many people on our cruise had found the thread!!! Glad there are a few more now & looking forward to seeing everyone on board (You'll know us from the English accents!!!!!!!! Mind you nearly all the entertainments cast are also from the UK!!!!!)

Mark

Ha! Stirring it up is good!!

Wake up, everyone!! Soon we'll be on the Wonder!!!


My countdown is showing 49 days until we leave for WDW!! After 3 days there, it's off to board the Wonder!

Is everyone else as excited as I am?

I don't mind my e-Mail being out there; here it is: tparbs@comcast.net I'd love to hear from others who are going to be cruising with us! It'd be fun to get to know everyone prior to the cruise!

Oh, here's my MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/mtnlioness2 It's Disney'd out! lol I also have tons of pics on there of my family, etc. So get to know us! ...anyone else have a MySpace site they'd like to share?

Also, if you look to the left under my user name, there's icons for both MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger. I think all you have to do it click on one and you can chat with me, as long as you have one of those set up. If not, download one--or both--for free! I love chatting and getting to know people online!

It is our first Cruise ever, So I chose Disney Cruise Lines. ( My husband does not like to get involved in any planning...He says ,just book it, he'll be happy)

DH,50 Me 49, DS,31 DS,28 DS Girlfriend 28
Verandah and Port Hole staterooms.

My husband doesn't understand why I chose the Disney Cruise as we have no young children.
I told him it wasn't nescessary... as I've been reading these boards for awhile now and they are great.

I got up at midnight and booked the Palo Brunch and Palo for the last night.
I don't fully understand the dining rotation yet.
I have learned.... to make sure we dine at AP the first rotation night.
I don't want to miss Tritons or the Pirate Party. So I hope Palo on the last night works out.

We are staying at the Dolphin for 3 days after the cruise.

We also booked the Comfort Suite room for 05/20/2008

I am so excited I can't wait. This was our Christmas Present.

 

[tparbs]

Welcome, Rockydek...er....what's your real name?

It's been real quiet over here, considering it won't be long before we're on the Wonder! I can't believe it's next month! Woo hooooo!

Ha...from what I've read, your hubby is gonna LOVE DCL and not want to cruise with anyone else!

We're staying at the Swan...I've heard both the Swan and Dolphin are better then any deluxe resort in the park!

Again, welcome!

 

[rockydek]

Thanks tbarbs!

We are Ron and Tammy. We're from Massachusetts.

We have stayed at the Swan before .....the location can't be beat.. Its great!

Does everyone meet for drinks anywhere on the Ship?

 

[tparbs]

Hey, Ron & Tammy!

Yep, being in the heart of the park sounds awesome!! And those "Heavenly Beds" at the Swan and Dolphin sounds GREAT!! I'm looking forward to sinking into those every night! lol

Hey, I'm totally up for us meeting up for drinks! My husband's name is Thomas. Hoping those on this thread step up and say "YES!" lol
