October 2, 2011 Disney Wonder Mexican Riviera-"Mickey's Mexican Mouseketeers!"

[homeboycartel]

on board. You are in for a real treat. We are getting ready for cruise number 5 (cruise number 4 was about 6 weeks ago). Cruising DCL is seriously addictive.

We are also DVC members and live in the UK. We are a childless couple, but big kids at heart. What is your DVC home resort? They do a fun member celebration on each cruise that is 4 nights or longer.

Corinna

Our home resort is SSR. 7 weeks to our next WDW trip home... To AKLV and BCV!

Our home resort is SSR. 7 weeks to our next WDW trip home... To AKLV and BCV!

Our home resort is Old Key West. We have stayed there twice and at Animal Kingdom Villas (Jambo House) once. After our cruise in September, we have 5 nights booked at Bay Lake Tower. I am hoping that we will be able to stay at Grand Californian Villas either before or after this cruise.

Ok, we are coming !

1st DCL for us. Using points and paying a whopiing $125 for me, DW, DS-7. and DS-5! A bargain, whether you think DVC points are good for cruisingor not!

Tell me all the needed info!

Only 467 days till cruise time!!​

Aboard!!! We have a list going if you are interested. Here is the low down:

This is how the list thing works….. You may provide any, all or part of the following:

Dis Name-
Email address-
Adults name, age, occupation & pirate name- If you don’t have a pirate name, click here if you want one: (http://www.piratequiz.com/)
Kids first names & ages-
Early or late dinner seating-
Stateroom number-
Hometown-
Where you are staying night before the cruise – (in case we have several people @ same place, we can have a dis-meet or pool party the night before)
Any special occasion while cruising-

And I will put it on the list! It is up to you how much information you choose to provide. The list in MS Word format. If you don’t have MS Word, I can send it so you can view it in Adobe Reader. It will be a jumbled up mess if you try to open it in Notepad or Wordpad. If you would like to be on the list, PM me your info, or use the email link in my signature and put “Cruise List” in the subject line. Once the list is made, I will send it as an attachment to the email address you provide for the list. The list will be updated as I receive changes or additions. (once a week or so as needed) If I get something wrong, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I will try to fix it on the next update. If after you see the list, and you have any ideas or suggestions, let me know.

I regret to inform you all that we have changed our cruise date. There were some uncertainties with the fall school schedule for 2011. My DW is a teacher. The local school district is building a new school that is scheduled to open fall 2011. If construction falls behind, they will hold the opening of schools until the building is ready. As a consequence, we decided to go in the spring "just in case". We will be on the March 13, 2011 Mexican Riviera. I will still take "homeboycartel's" info and add it to the list if they send it soon. You are welcome to keep the list I started and keep adding to it. It looks complicated but it really isn't!! Again I'm sorry to bail out on you all, but the uncertainty just made us too uncomfortable about maybe missing the cruise altogether. If you like, I'll drop by and tell you about it when we get back!! The one big plus to this is, now we only have 271 day to cruise instead of 466!!! Sorry, I know, thats cold....
Have a great trip!!

Oh Michelle, this is wonderful. This really made my day. Thanks for doing the website, too. The Disney Dreamer website was fantastic. Do you know who from the Dreamers cruise is still on this one. I have only seen Kim around every now and again.

Yes, I am on Facebook. I have been for a while, but until last week, I rarely went on there. I don't know what made me go on there last weekend, but I saw that one of our table mates from the Med cruise had sent me a friend request and I really want to keep in touch. So I have been on there every day since. You can find me under my full name Corinna Ball.

Awesome Corinna I will look you up and send u friend suggestions of some of our Dreamers!!

Dreamers that are on this MR cruise are---you, me, Carol& Craig(alex'smom), Robin & Matt(disneydiva), Mindi & Marty(mindibellcm), Kim & Walter(kimmcbee), Lori & Mike(my SIL--she will have a name on here-Mother2piglet) That's all I have for now!

Thanks I love the website, just need to gain info. I need a link to the current page to see who's who! Anyone who wants to share their photo please PM it to me or post it here...we liked it our last cruise....we couldn't hide from each other at the port...LOL
Anybody having ideas of places to stay close to the Cali port would be nice..Never gone out of that one before! Plus I also post info/facts..like directions, etc on the web page.

 

[Alex's Mom]

Hi everyone,
Finally was able to get access to a real computer at home with all the remodeling, I never get a chance anymore.

So excited that Michelle is back with us!! Yeah Michelle!!!

Corinna, I sent you a friend request on Facebook. It is from Carol Wyskida so that you know who I am. That way all the Dreamers can stay in contact.

Facebook and IMs are great for me in keeping up with everyone.

Anybody else that wants to send me a request can. Just let me know.

For some reason I though Robin and Mindi had jumped ship towards the Dream. It is great that there will be a few familiar faces around.

As far as photos are concerned, are they relatively easy to swap out? I could send you a photo now, but I have the feeling that this might be replaced by a formal night photo from the Transatlantic.

Thanks for sending me the friend request. I have to say that there are a few people from the DIS that have added me as friends, but I am never quite sure if they are from the UK Community Board or from one of the cruises.

Yes, that photo will do nicely for now.

Hi everyone!

I am still here. It has been awhile since I posted because I wasnt sure if we were going to do this cruise or not. Everyone was enticed by the Dream and it did sound like a beautiful ship, but we were leaning more towards Royal Caribbean (less expensive).

Well, as all you dreamers know....Michelle can be quite persuasive and she told me she would give me candy if I came back....so here I am!!!!

Anyhoot, it will be fun sailing with everyone again and I can't wait to see you all!!!!

Beckinoz~Let me know what information you need and I can get it to you. Michelle already has all my family info, so you can get it from her too!!
