North To Alaska--May 3, 2011 on the Disney Wonder

[EllaEnchanted]

Ella - thanks for the info on themed nights - I had not seen Pirate Night listed for this cruise yet, so that should now make my list complete!

You are so welcome Lynn....naturally they said it was subject to change, but this is how it stands right now.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Please change me to a sipper. Sue I hang out with tasters!

OK Sue, got it. Guzzlers are Tasters....I don't have a 4th category....hahaha.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Well never mind. There was a price drop but it was for a category I had never heard of ..... Inside Stateroom with Restrictions
Category IGT - A little over $1400 for a single traveler.

I wondered how soon it would be before we saw the "restrictions" rates becoming available for this cruise. There were so many cabins still available in many catagories that I figured it would happen. I think some of our GTY folks might be able to see some pixie dust upgrades!

Edited to add:

2A IGT $1885; OGT $2205; VGT $3405 (no transfers, no insurance)

Hi Ella! Did you see the Disney Parks Blog this morning? They have a video of Mr. TATTINGER on the Dream with the special pink[rose] champagne they released commemorating the Disney Dream!! Even has a picture of the ship on the bottle! Think PINK!! Thank you again for organising this soiree!! Mahalo Karen

there is a small bar called Pink on the Dream...all the champagne bottles are pink there...the walls are a pale shade...it would be perfect for your get-togethers..I know the Fantasy will have a "pink" also!

Karen, I was on the Maiden Dream and bought a bottle of the Tattinger, but I got white not pink champagne....just a matter of taste, I like it dry. You are so welcome! We will have a lot of fun.

CHAMPAGNE GIRLS.....CHAMPAGNE GIRLS.......CHAMPAGNE GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​

If you are interested in attending please post on this thread, send me your name, stateroom number and category preference.....honorary member, sipper or taster.....so I can determine how much champagne I need to order.

Count me as a Sipper! Pink's a Great color! I will confirm my room number... I don't have it handy right now. Thanks! Georgie

Got the room #2070!!! Thanks Ella!

I think this is what you're talking about. I was there on the maiden voyage checking it out for future champagne girls tastings. It only holds 30 people comfortably. We usually have 40-50. They will fit, but it will be tight. On the Dream, we would have even more people since it's a bigger boat.

BTW, we think they stole the idea from us....we had our first PINK Champagne Girls Tasting in May 2008. hahaha.

I called DCL today to ask about themed nights for this cruise:

Day 2 - formal night

Day 5 - pirate night

Day 6 - semi formal

Thanks Ella! So it looks like there will be a pirates night... just no fireworks.

Thanks Ella! So it looks like there will be a pirates night... just no fireworks.

That's what they are saying right now, but anything could change. It might be too cold to be outside for fireworks.

I will miss the Fireworks, always the best part of Pirate night...

 

[mishoe01]

Thanks Ella! So it looks like there will be a pirates night... just no fireworks.

That's what I heard too...b/c of environmental issues/concerns if I remember correctly (which so may NOT be the case )

Does anyone doing the FE have any food allergies that we should be aware of? I'm tossing several ideas around but wanted to make sure I don't go in a direction that will be dangerous for anyone. Thanks.

I am allergic to Juniper....but is only seems to show up in Root Beer soda! This is a weird allergy, but very real.

My wife is allergic to melons (except watermelon).

I'm on the Wonder and just read a post from another cruiser about alaska shore excursions. They recommended booking with http://alaska-shoreexcursions.com . I just booked my excursions in Juneau and it was soooooo easy and I saved a ton of money! Thought I would "pay it forward". Can't wait!!!

Hi Gang! I'm working on a "one stop" for all FE questions. So for all of you who have participated in FEs in the past, if you could post your experiences at http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2660789 I would really appreciate it. I will then update the first post with all of your wonderful insights! Thanks!!!
