October 28, 2017 - 7-Night Western Carribean

[frozensmoke99]

Hello everyone. I haven't posted in years but excited to say 93 days to go (and counting). I don't know but I am feeling a little overwhelmed and some sort of out of place. I am a single mom going with oldest daughter 17yo, younger daughter 4yo (birthday), sister 18yo, and nana 87yo). My girls (all of them including nana) are very shy. I am the only extrovert one out of them. This will be my and oldest daughter and nana 2nd cruise, but 1st for my youngest and sister. I would really like to part take in the FH exchange but don't know how to go about it. Can someone please help. I hope to meet some wonderful people (God knows we need some positivity in our lives...lost my mom and dad) so this will be good.

It's been a while since this thread has been active, but we just booked this cruise two days ago. We're a family of five, with a 13 yo daughter, 11 yo son, and 7 yo boy. My parents will also be joining us on the cruise. We were booked on one during the summer but had to cancel because of an illness. This cruise is a replacement for that, and we're really excited for the Halloween festivities.

One question, when I go to the cruise activities portion of the site, I don't see a pirate night or any other cruise-wide activities listed other than the sail-away party. Does anyone have any information on what will be happening on which days as far as Halloween (assume it will be mostly on the 31st) and pirate night?

I just got off the phone with Disney who gave me the itinerary: Pirate night is Day 5/Jamaica and I also have the dining rotations (which night is formal, pirate night, etc.)... Hopes this helps...

Hello! We are a family of 5 ( kids are 5,2, and 7 mo at cruise time) from IA! This is our 1st Disney cruise and we are so excited! I'm having a hard time restraining myself on buying everything Disney I see! I did find the fb page and joined there as well.

Awesome! We are from the Quad Cities. Maybe we should get the Iowans together!

There is a very, *VERY* active group elsewhere in the social media world. We're not allowed to talk about it here, but it exists and it's extremely busy.

how long does it take to get approved to see the actual cruise site?

Apparently about 6 minutes after you posted here (I'm not sure about other admins, but I've been dealing with construction contractors all day and have been back and forth to the computer.) Welcome aboard!

This will be our 2nd Disney Cruise and we are so excited! This year we are bringing my mother-in-law (who is cool, don't worry). It'll be me, hubby, 7 year old boy, and MIL. The countdown is getting real.

Also, can someone post the dining schedule? Thx!
