Bad news......because of DS school schedule, we have had to switch our cruise date to the 1/5/13 cruise. We really really wanted to be on the New Year's cruise, but it just isn't going to work for us this time around ugh

Have a great time!

Big decisions to reschedule a cruise but I'm sure it will be great for you all.

Happy Crusing

Joining in! We booked while on the Dream this past October. We've since added my SIL to the reservation and split to 2 rooms.
October was the kids' first cruise and they now would rather go on cruises than go to the Parks, at least for now.
So our party will be:
DH
Myself
SIL
DD - 8 (at cruise time)
DS - 5 (at cruise time)

This will also be SIL first cruise! We are taking her for her 60th bday which is in August.

Can't wait!

Hello, Welcome to our cruise.

Please feel free to tell us all about your Dream cruise after all it's The Fantasy's sister ship

I see your family's got the DCL bug, that is quite common around here.

Welcome aboard! My kids absolutely love cruising too. DD12 enjoys the freedom we allow her on the ship and DD5 loves all the activities. Which means DH and I love getting to have a little time to ourselves. It's a win for everyone.

I know what you mean! I figured for our Feb cruise we would forgo the Palo or Remy dining but the kids are more than alright with eating at the club whichever night we picked. So Palo it is this time around!

We did Remy last time and I have to say, even though Chef Hunnel is part of the restaurant onboard, we preferred our experience at Remy over the Chef's Table at V&A.

I'll give a trip report when I get back in February when the Dream is a little more "fresh" in my head.

 

[MRAven]

I'm really hoping for a Brunch at Palo or Remy, it's DD's first cruise as an adult so she can go to this restaurants and on the other hand I don't want to miss any of the restaurants from our rotation dinners (they look very nice), also The Fantasy has so many places for night life to offer. So Brunch for Us it is specialy on a sailing day.

This is when a Gold or Platinum CC Membership really helps. We are still silver


On other topics, She's coming !

We loved Remy's on the Dream. I'll be happy to try it again. Palo's brunch is always a must for us. We are gold now, but after the New Year's cruise we'll be platinum. I can't wait to enjoy those benefits.

Good for you, but I think you will enjoy some platinum benefits on this NYE cruise since once you step on the ship it's considered a sailed cruise, so you should be getting a Platinum Lanyard. Maybe even the private cocktail

Well, I'm pretty sure everyone has heard of the new news of the Mediterranean cruises, and yes, they are going to Greece (I ment we are going to Greece).

Many option though, 4 night, 7 night, 12 nights Venice, 12 Nights Greece.

and of course the trannys EBTA and the WBTA. All on the Magic.

The Greece itinerary is for June 15, feels a little early though.

Booking starts this thursday but I'm going to wait it out untill our cruise just to see if there are going to be any changes in dates and prices.

Good day for cruise dreaming

I would love to book now, but we'll have to wait a bit before we can put any more money down on cruises. Though I may look into how our points can help us.

Hi: We visited Victoria last year. We did the Alaskan cruise and spent an extra week in Vancouver and Victoria. It was beautiful.

Hello pirateluv glad you have joined us.

I guess by now we are quiete a bunch so I'm going to suggest we start the chat on some kind of organization, like how many of us are there, what do we want to do as a group, etc. At least the first row call.

Any suggestions ?
