New Info on new DCL ship Disney Dream

[TheTXTaylors5]

DH just called me in a panic. I thought he was hurt or something. Come to find out, he wanted me to logon to hear the 5:45 PM EST (4:45 CST) Live Webcast about the Disney Dream.

Patiently waiting on the next Webcast ...

I'm not sure I want ANYONE going on it.

I will stand there with my stones for any speedo incidents

The new Disney cruise ship weight loss plan. Harry, large, wet men shooting though the Aqua Duck.

That makes all you can eat very little.

Did you not see the virtual tour Mike? Deck plans are there.

Yeah ... I saw it, but I wanted something more detailed.

OMG Way too exciting!!!!! I can't wait for 2011 to roll around.
She is going to be pretty!!!!

Well I love Crush 'n' Gusher at Typhoon Lagoon but I don't know about that Aqua Duck hanging over the edge of the ship though.

 

[TheTXTaylors5]

It's on!!!!!!

Did anyone see the typo on Deck 11? Virtual Tour, Deck 11, Senses Spa Villas includes a verandah and a "hot tube" sounds relaxing to me....

Holy Moly!!! The Disney Dream is one out-of-this-world ship! I know what my DH and I will be doing for our 50th birthdays in 2011!!

Can't wait to have grandkids for them to experience the incredible nursery and kids' clubs!

Cool ship.

I would most certainly fly through those tubes!

I like the virtual porthole for the frugal inside sailors. It can be turned off for night, or for the seasick.

I think from the side it looks rather "boxy". Most ships now look like this, like a hotel on a barge. Kinda disappointed that they couldn't give it more of a classic and elegant look of the classic ocean liners. I think that is what they did with the original two ships. Guess it is from the modular way they build the big ships.

Wow, I just looked through the photo gallery for the new ship... amazing!!!

I've never been on a Disney cruise (or any cruise for that matter) ... but I'm booked for the podcast cruise and now I want to book another cruise already, just to go on this cool looking ship!

So am I seeting this right? There are ocean view staterooms that face the front of the ship? That sounds pretty cool.

I wonder if they are going to have two 4 day cruises back to back for the first week because the 26th is a Wednesday.

I want to be a kid and go play in there - it looks like so much fun

I'm guessing that beacuse it's much larger they had to go for that design. I would have thought the Titanic or similar would look like a tug boat in comparison to some modern ships
The BBC recently did a TV show about cruise liners around the last turn of the century - not sure if this link will work http://video.aol.co.uk/video-detail/time-shift-series-9-the-golden-age-of-liners/3356386343/?icid=VIDURVENT03
It was very interesting to see how it evolved from the elite and super rich - well aristocracy in those days - to the 'middle class' (I know there were plenty of working class in stearage which it also touches on) when the transatlantic route fell in popularity and they really started cruising!
