MG Fireworks Cruise- time?

[Mrs. Toaster]

We just booked the Magical Gatherings Fireworks Cruise for our trip in August. I forgot to confirm what time this starts. If anyone has taken this, can you please give me a rough idea what time it starts, so I don't have to call reservations again? Thank you so much!

I think it will depend on what time Wishes is on the day your cruise. We booked ours at 90 days out and they just posted the hours for Wishes at the beginning of this month (our cruise is in June).

You'll have to call back when it gets closer and the hours for Wishes are posted. I booked a Wishes cruise (not the Grand Gatherings one, though) 90 days out for our May trip, and the time changed 4 times. I called the day of the cruise for a final time.

We have this offered as an option for our maginal gatherings, ut Ii am worried that the little ones 2 age 3, almost and 7 will be wilted after a day at the parks. I am thinking it will be after 9 pm
anyone else try this with little ones. It would just be the coolest to meet Peter Pan but I don't want to "stress" keeping them up.

thanks

going in July 4 g enerations

Thanks all! It makes perfect sense that you have to wait and see when Wishes is showing. We also have a little one, but I figure that he can stay up late for that one night. We will just take it easier that day, so he is well rested!

We did it with a 1,3,5 and 8 yr old and they loved it! They even answered trivia questions from our pirate. I would definately do this again with kids so much easier to see the fireworks and not having to fight the crowds afterwards. My 3 and 8 yr old are still talking about it and we did it on Saturday.

 

[Mrs. Toaster]

It sounds fabulous! mm lover, Would you be willing to post a review of your experience?

 

[mm lover in Ia]

I will post our reviews when I get a chance to get caught up on everything and longer than just five minutes to be on the computer. We had a blast!

mm lover in Ia -- we have a cruise booked next Monday Can you tell me if they still hand out Peter Pan books to the kids?

 

[mm lover in Ia]

Yes at the end of the cruise the hand out books. Alot of the kids that were there had them signed by Peter Pan at the end. You will have a blast! I will never want to watch the fireworks from the park again!

We have one booked for July 31. Wishes is at 10pm, we have to be at the CR at 8:45....or at least that's what it is right now.

Thanks! DSIL said her DS was really excited about getting a Peter Pan book.

Kristin's Mom-
That is the same time ours was. There is a small reception out by the marina with pop, water and coffee and lots of cookies, cakes, brownies and more. You also find out what boat you are on and each person gets a special pin. Lots of time with Captain Hook and Schmee! You will have sooo much FUN!!!!

I wish I was going on it with ya!!!!

We didnt get to go on out June 9 cruise Lightning in the area so they canceled it. We did get to go on our June 10 Illuminations cruise though and it was wonderful.
