I am so excited that we will be sailing on our 3rd Disney cruise, our 2nd on the wonder!
We're doing a B2B so we have both cruises to make decisions on. I was originally thinking we wouldn't do any excursions on this cruise, since Castaway Cay is fun just as it is. Key West is easy to walk around ourselves. Even if it means making our way back to the ship shuttle in torrential rain with flooding of the streets up to our knees as happened last time.Nassau we were considering just staying on the ship, but I've since noticed they are having a half day Atlantis excursion for our cruise since our port time is so short that I've been considering. Well that's the thought process as it currently stands.
I am also having trouble trying to PM you. I have posted 10 times, but it still doesn't give that as an option. Could you please PM me as well?I tried to send a PM to you, but I'm having trouble. I posted 10 times, can you try PM to me?
Here's the link:Where are you seeing the Atlantis half day excursion?
With how popular they are, I would guess they will be on board. I don't believe they are doing the Frozen party though on this cruise, but I'm not sure.I have been seeing advertisements for the "frozen" cruises. Does anyone know if Anna and Elsa will be on our cruise and if we will be having the frozen parties?
I received your PM and replied back to you.I am also having trouble trying to PM you. I have posted 10 times, but it still doesn't give that as an option. Could you please PM me as well?

I understand. We felt the same way trying to catch the Haunted Mansion in its original state at Disneyland. We kept catching it during the holidays. I haven't done a holiday cruise before, but my guess is it will be a mix of regular and holiday attire. Formal night will still be formal, Pirate night will still be pirate, Captain Mickey will still be as he is. I'm not sure what they'll do for Castaway Cay, but I hope its not all holiday all the time.As exciting as all that sounds, I was kinda hoping to have all the characters in their regular cruise island attire for our first ever Disney cruise. But the tree etc sounds neat to see!
