Welcome Anthony and Christina!

Peter and Jenn, sorry you had to switch!

We have just gotten back from vacation, I will work on the list of cruisers and FE, I am having issues getting to copy decently to here, but I will see what I can do.

 

[Lynn G]

OK, after much playing, I have come to the conclusion that the only way to disburse the cruise list is by e-mail, so if you will send me a Private Message with your e-mail address, I will send out e-mails to all of you with the info I have. That way your real names and cabin numbers will not be available to all, just to us on the cruise.

 

[Lynn G]

Anthony - got your PM.

We have had this cruise booked since opening day, but were not sure we were going to go on this one or change it to a 2013 cruise. We are staying on this one.

We are Donna and Joi in stateroom 6134 and are interested in the fish extenders.

We have done this cruise on another cruise line, you do sail past the Statue of Liberty and it makes for a very nice photo op.

Also for an FYI, in Halifax there is a free bus right outside the cruise terminal that circles the city with stops at all the major attractions. Sometimes you get lucky and there is also a guide on board. This is an easy and very inexpensive way to see the sights.

Looking forward to seeing those we have sailed with before and meeting new people.

Welcome to the group!

FE list - I have been unable to figure out how to post list on thread, so if you send me via PM an e-mail address, I will e-mail the list to all. (Have gotten PM,s from Anthony and Donna). Even if you are not doing the Fish Extender Exchange, if you want what info I have on who is joining us, then send me a PM also.

I was just digging around on the DCL site and saw the excursions for these ports are up!

I also noticed that this sailing is in reverse order of all the others and the time in Halifax is like 2 hrs less than all the other sailings.

Halifax is important to me and we may end up changing to the Sept 2 sailing.......

Well in checking with our travel partners it seems everyone else wants to stay with this sail date - so we are here to stay!

Hi everyone!!!!

We just got off the Magic last Saturday and booked this cruise while onboard.
This will be our 4th time on the Magic, we are very excited.
Our first time in Canada.

We are heading to NYC on the 8th for a few days before the cruise.

Disney and NYC are my 2 very favorite vacation places.

I am hoping to stay at The Marriott Marques, we stayed there in July 2010 and loved it!!!

We are flying in to Newark and staying at the Howard Johnson's Newark Airport, will take Super Shuttle to the cruise terminal, then back to airport. We are not adding any extra days to the trip. We will just have quite a bit of time at the Newark Airport on the way back, as our flight out is not until 5pm.

We are lucky to be stationed at Ft Dix Nj. So we will just take the train up the morning of

Reviews of the HoJo's were not great on Trip Advisor so switched to Holiday Inn, Super Shuttle is 1/2 the price of Disney transport.

i/we use Super Shuttle quite a bit and I like being able to pre pay with tip added.

Sorry DIS delay mustta caused a double post

Must be nice to not have to fly in! Living in the middle of the country, that is something we will never know.
