Hi all,

My family will be on this cruise, our 3rd Disney Cruise. I am traveling with DH, DD 6 and DS 8.

I will also be celebrating my birthday! Looking forward to catching a glimpse of the wedding if I can. Have never seen one on a cruise - how romantic!

WOW a Birthday onboard.....How fun. Welcome to the cruise. Our numbers are growing. Is everyone counting the days like I am ?? We are still waiting to book our air. I have $600.00 in credit from Southwest it was supose to expire in October 2009 but I called and they will extend it once for 1 year, so I have to call in May or June to have it extended then we can start watching for our tickets to get to Orlando. DD will get there a day ahead of us and pick us up at the Airport. I CAN'T WAIT......

Hi everyone! Super excited. Just booked this cruise a few days ago. Can't wait. Very excited and nervous. I am a worry wart can't help it, its what I do.
I am trying not to worry about small stuff and just enjoy the fact that we are finially going on a Disney cruise..................................
Cast members, me 39, DH 37, DD 19, DD 17, DS 16, DD 15, & last but certainly not least DD 12.
Thinking about adding a 2 day stay at AMus after cruise because my oldest said it would be so aweful to be so close to Disney and not go at least for a few days!
That remains to be seen but the cruise is on.

 

[BELLE16127]

Welcome!!!!!! I keep checking this thread to see if anyone else will be joining us.....this is the first time I ever want summer to be over FAST.....Counting the days until our Daughters Wedding on the Wonder I can't wait, I wanna start packing NOW!!!!!!

 

[Disneydreamer5]

My children are 19,17,16,15,& 12.
I would love to have them hooked up with some kids their own age before the cruise.
If anyone has children around this age please let me know.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Sorry, my kids are all younger: 7, 5, and 3. I'm sure your teens will have fun though!

Hi Fellow cruisers! Any one else going to Disney World first? We are staying at the Beach Club. I'm 99 days from the start of our land part. I've been gearing up for dining reservations and found out yesterday we now have free dining!

We had 3 families going with us (6 adults, 8 boys, and my daughter) and now have another family going along with 2 more boys and 2 girls!

We're all silly Eagles fans except one family of Cowboy fans. Found out the Sunday night game on the cruise is Eagles v. Cowboys. I know it's nuts, but we are psyched! No worries, though we are nice fans.

96 days to the Cruise!!!!!!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Yes! We are looking to fly in Friday night (Southwest needs to lower their prices a bit) and spend 2 nights at the Wilderness Lodge (just booked the new room-only discount!) before heading to the cruise on Sunday.

As I said before, you can never have too many silly Eagles fans on the boat. Our family makes 5 more! We'll have to find a way to say hi.

I didn't even think to check the schedule. Maybe they'll show the Eagles/Cowboys game on the big screen over the pool. Because that'd be, you know, awesome.

But why are you bringing Cowboys fans along?!

 

[goeagles]

Just booked our meals - so psyched they extended free dining!

Capt Oblivious: We're only letting the Cowboy fans come along since one of their kids has converted to the Eagles. We can met Sunday night - game time at the sports bar!

DisneyDreamer5: My DS is only 9 but I have 2 boys near your ages. They will be 12 and 14 when we sail. They have AIM/email and said they would chat. I don't know if your girls would be interested in emailing with them, but I imagine we can set it up somehow.

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

I read that they have a "vote" in the sports bar as to what game they show, but if it's the Sunday night game, then it should be the only one on. I'm still holding out hope for showing it on the big screen over the pool!

What to pack...Eagles t-shirt or McNabb jersey...

 

[2 pirates for me]

Hi all,
We will at the Beach Club for 3 nights before the cruise and 3 nights post cruise at Animal Kingdom. We are so excited to try our fist Disney Cruise!!! Our "pirates" are 4 & 6 turning 7 on the 5th. We are planning doing the pirate adventure @ the Beach Club on the 6th, and the Mickey & Pals Fireworks Voyage on the 7th. Has anyone done either of these? If so how did you like it?

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

Sorry, haven't tried either of those events. But I'm sure they're great!

We're almost at the 2-month milestone...

 

[BELLE16127]

Only 64 more days before we leave Pennsylvania for the CRUISE!!! I can't wait. We fly to Florida on the 7th and are spending the night in Cocoa Beach. DD and her Fiancee are flying in on the 5th I believe they want to see some friends from College and have a few things to pick up for the WEDDING before they get on the ship. I am so looking forward to seeing them since I haven't seen them since last October Texas is so far away. We have our clothes for the wedding and I have actually allready started thinking of what other clothes to pack....that is whats in the spare room as I type clothes I am thinking of packing.

We have booked 3 nights at POP Resort for the days after the cruise (was THRILLED with the FREE dining) I had been holding out hoping that it would become available!! so the cruise for 4 nights the WEDDING and three nights at the PARKS I am a summer person but I can't wait for these last days to fly by......

Hi everyone! After several months of waiting and planning I can finally "officially" join this thread!

DS(20) and I will be leaving NC on the 7th to drive down to Port Canaveral.

I did a Disney cruise last year with another DS and a Carnival cruise is 2007 with yet another DS. Not sure what I'll do next year because after this cruise I am out of DSs! DH refuses to go on a cruise. He just doesn't know what he's missing!

DS(20) has Down Syndrome and he is so excited about this cruise. And I'm lucky enough not only to be able to cruise with him but to be able to see all of his firsts with him! I know he is absolutely going to go nuts when he actually sees how big a cruise ship really is!

Is this the place to see if anyone wants to do FEs? Or is that a seperate thread? Because I'm definitely interested. We did that on our cruise last year and it was so much fun!!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Just bumping this thread up a little!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Hope some more people join this thread soon!!!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Bumping this thread up (again)!

I am getting so excited about the cruise. Can not wait!

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

A belated Welcome Aboard to you, eeyoresmountainpals!
