Crash2000: Do you have children traveling with you??

yes it will be myself 38 "at cruise time"
my wife also 38
and daughter 5

the wife will be the tough one to please, she's more the "party carnival crowd", so I hope she can just play along and enjoy herself...

 

[crash2000]

This is really off the subject......but, I have read so many people talking about reading that their stateroom was right above the props or it has obstructed view, or it was really noisy at night.....etc. Where can I find that information about our stateroom??

Su

2 ways:
goto wdwinfo.com, click staterooms, the room reports, its a great site!!!
also i use the search feature of the forums, and enter the stateroom number...

 

[Dan & Su Thome]

Thanks for the info. I have checked in the Stateroom site. Our room is not listed. The rooms on both side of us are......so we just read them to get the jist of things. We are staying on deck 6. Not a lot of positive replies on the rooms near us. I understand it is someone else's comments. I am a very postitive person. Plus, I am on vacation.........ha ha ha ha!!!!

Just giving this a bump before it disappears. Only 9 days until the one year mark

We're very excited to be nearing the one year mark... then the real planning can begin!

Has anyone started to make plans yet? We originally thought we'd spend a week at WDW following the cruise, but since it's Thanksgiving week, I'm not sure that we'll want to fight the crowds after all. We may just spend Saturday at the Nick Hotel and fly home Sunday. My kiddos really love that place!

I guess I'll set up camp in here now, so I can find this thread later. It will be myself, my dh, ds who will be 2 and ds who will be 7. This will be our first time on the Magic and we will be celebrating my birthday while we sail. I am so excited.

Hi everyone!

 

[dmja716]

Hello fellow 11/15/08 cruisers.

We just booked today and we are so excited.

My name is Dana and it will be me, DH and DS who will be 4.

We have not even thought about excursions yet. I plan on starting the research soon.

Only a year and a week away.

I hope we can all meet up on the ship.

BTW, It is our first cruise together.

 

[Disneyday]

Hi Two owls and Dmja716

So glad you're coming along too. Its just sooooooo long to wait
Hopefully we will be able to meet up at least once and put faces to names.

Has anyone seen the 'pass it on' thread on the main cruise board. It seems a really good idea but probably a bit soon to be thinking of those things

[dmja716]

It's One Year Away........

 

[Disneyday]

Happy one year to go anniversary everyone

I've just thought, if its Thursday today and we sail on a Saturday does that mean its a leap year next year and we have an EXTRA day to wait

 

[dmja716]

That is a good question if it will be leap year.
I must find out.
If we've waited this long, what is one more day??

 

[Pegsta]

Can I join in?

dmja - thank you for pointing me this way!

I just booked today. This will be our first ever cruise. It will be me (34), DH (42), DS1 (3) and DS2 (16 months) at time of cruise. I look forward to getting to know you all.

Happy Turkey Day to all!

 

[dmja716]

Welcome Pegsta.

My name is Dana and my DS will be 4 at cruise time.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone too!!

I havent booked our flights yet, but I definitely know I am coming in the day before and staying with relatives in the Orlando area. I have DCL transfers set up at this time, but I might change my mind and rent a car.

Reading through the boards here I have a slight idea what excursions we want to do, but Im not 100% sure.
We have a long time to decide.

We are first time Disney Cruisers too.
Take care everyone

 

[TwoOwls]

Welcome Dana.


Woohoo we passed the year mark.



I think at the time of our sailing the Christmas party will be in going on. Anyone thinking about going?

I'd love for the 2008 MVMCP schedule to include Saturday, November 22, as I think this would be our only opportunity to attend. It seems the November dates usually don't include Saturdays though so I'm not that hopeful. I recently read the dates are usually released in May.

 

[dmja716]

We will not be attending the MVMCP since we are only flying in the night before and leaving the day of. It sounds awesome though!!

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

 

[MommyTo5]

I'm so excited! Yesterday, we went ahead and booked our pre-cruise night at the Hyatt inside Orlando International Airport! The hotel looks beautiful from the pics I've seen and I imagine it will be so nice to get off that plane and be just steps away from our rooms. DH has to work Friday so we'll be taking the last flight of the day which doesn't arrive until after 10 p.m. We are planning on breakfast at the Hemisphere Restaurant the next morning before taking a private van to the port.

Is anyone else planning on staying at the Hyatt?
