Northern Sights & Mickey's MAGICal Delights - 1st Baltic cruise - June 12,2010

[Scott H]

Last week I did a quick check and noticed bus and private car from Gatwick, sorry did not get the cost, actually can't remember.

We will fly to Gatwick, maybe train to Barcelona, via DLP. will so got many othber adventures to have before serious planning, i.e. Peru and several WDW races.

As Scott already posted, I am sure (I just managed to get on the internet, and I do not have time right now to go back 10 pages to find early this morning!!!), we have booked this cruise, it is also a back to back for us - our first back to back! Because of the cost, we lowered ourselves to cat 10 , but ended up in one of the secret porthole rooms! The CM at DVC did a great job for us! We will be in the same room for both cruises. I will eventually get caught up on this thread and see who else is going with us!!!

I'm putting everyone on the 1st page.

Thanks! I'm not positive but I think I remember DW2DH&DS saying they were in.

False alarm, DCL just called to tell us we were on a waitlist. I already knew that, I was the one who put us on the waitlist. So back to limbo...

 

[jship210]

Aaaw, sorry. Keep hoping.

I'll start taking info from Gydell's 1st post and put it on a spread sheet

So there I am trying to concentrate on criminology, when the phrase 'Tsars and Stripes' hits me!!! What d'you think? Maybe we could combine it with one of the existing choices, EG: To Russia with Mickey - the Tsars and Stripes Cruise - or something like that...

Just a thought...

Sounds good to me.

We are in - that's me, David and my Dad, Ray. Plus I'll (make that we'll all) be celebrating my 39th birthday on 23rd June. Guaranteed Category 6 on deck 5.

They're on the July 6 cruise.

Sorry about that! Now you know why I wouldn't want to be keeper of the list.

I thought they were w/ us too...

We're in for this one also! I haven't heard from my TA yet, but we had a ressie to transfer so I looked it up on the DCL website and it's already been changed to the Baltic one. Cat 7 - cabin 7120 - that's one of the partially obstructed full verandas and our favorite cabin. No price details yet, but it would have to be a fairly early booking to snag a cabin like that.

Happy to be sailing with some former cruisemates: Lisa, Sue, Rita, MJgirl (although I'm not sure we actually met on the EB) and of course my running buddies, Scott and Lynn! Looking forward to meeting everyone else.

 

[Bilbo UK]

We're in

Haven't heard from our TA yet, but DCL site shows us in cabin 7620 on this cruise. There seem to be lots of familiar faces around from both the Eastbound TA and Westbound PC.

Early morning runs on deck 4 KEWL!!!!!

 

[gydell]

I sure hope that we don't have more than 1 formal night. Too much to carry with all the airline restrictions.

 

[nosaj72]

We are official now as well. Wanted a SPR but settled for a cat 9. #2606. It will be my wife and I, plus daughters 7 and 9.
