Podcast 4.0 Fantasy 7-Night Western Caribbean Cruise 12/8/2012

[CindyisMarryingJohn]

Congrats on your upcoming wedding aboard The Fantasy!! For door decor I highly recommend going on the forum cruise magnets and graphics and find the link for milliepies photobucket files....she has some awesome mickey ear bride and groom and other adorable honeymoon stuff! If u are even fair with the computer u can easily download the graphics then open them with a photo program and use Microsoft word to make the lettering (I downloaded a free Disney font online) if you can't do them yourself y may find someone on the forum kind enough to make them and send you the files
Have fun!

Thanks! This is quite helpful! We are both very computer savy!

Thank you, I will look tonight. As payment let me try to help you. Touch whatever you want to copy and you should see it highlight. Then either copy or select what you want to. The option will come up. Then touch and hold for a second where you want to paste and the option will come up for that. I'm pretty sure anyway....should be the same as the iPhone. Have a good weekend and thanks again for the help!

Also a big congrats to the people getting married! Best wishes to you and may this one be your forever!

Wowsers in 24 hrs we'll be in orlando!!

We are so excited to be flying out tomorrow for Orlando and then on the cruise starting Saturday. To add to the excitement, we just received a phone call with the caller I'd "WDW Celluar". What? Oh no, did they change something on the cruise? I answered and it was Scott from DVC inviting us to a DVC member celebration on Sunday.

Now I know the underlying reason for it is to sell you more points, but it also sounds like a lot of fun. Has anyone else done this? What should we expect?

Can't wait to see everyone on Saturday. I booked this cruise not knowing about the Dis Podcast or the Podcast cruise. When I realized it was, I started listening to the podcast and have been hooked ever since!! Wish it would have been the other way around and I would be part of the 4.0 crew.

We've done this on several cruises. Its a fun time with some modest swag (a hat, bag, portfolio, perhaps something else) and yes, a sales pitch. As is typical, its not at all high pressure and I believe that they are having a drawing for a shipboard credit.

We are in WDW at OKW as we speak.

We missed getting a few things in our suitcases. Most importantly,the small cat treats for Casey at Castaway Cay.

They are sitting on the counter at home. I have no cat so will end up giving them to a friend.

Can't find any cat food for sale at WDW, hmm, can't imagine why with that huge gigantic mouse around.

SO if anyone has not left yet and is heading to a store before the cruise, if you pick up any kind of goodies for Casey I can reimburse.
(Just hope only one person can come through not everyone)

Thanks

Hope everybody posts their stateroom report. Its easy and helps others pick a good cabin.

 

[IBelieveInTheMagic]

Welcome home to those that are back home now! Is anyone swaying still? Lol - seriously, this is the first time I have after getting off the ship in awhile. I guess it was the last night of serious rocking - did anyone else "notice" it? What made it hard to sleep was the constant creaking sound of the wardrobe and there was no stopping it so we just tried our best to "rest" through the night. The movement didn't bother me, just the noise and sadly, I had already packed my fan up (white noise).

What did you all think of the cruise? I'm so sorry we didn't make it to the cabin crawl as we had hoped to and I would have liked to have met you all. I have no clue if I bumped into any of you all along the way? We ended up going to the port talk and it ran longer than expected during the scheduled cabin crawl time.

We had a fabulous time and my Mom was just oohed and ahhed alll week. She truly gets it and although she has always been a Disney fan and respected them as a company - she clearly got to see why we rave about it so much. She said she loved the shows and characters the most. She reasoned to me the characters were always so loving and kind to everyone and really gave each person individual attention and that impressed her. She especially loved the Genie from the shows but we noticed there were two different ones. I'm convinced the one she loved (he was the heavier set one) was also on the Dream because he made a big impression on us too.

For our dining team we had Stipe from Croatia and Pat from Thailand and they were awesome of course. To be honest, they weren't my favorites, but I have no complaints.

We did the Gingerbread House making class and really enjoyed that and also weren't quite proud of our house and hated to leave it behind.

I rebooked for Spring Break 2014 on the Fantasy for my DH and DS and I can't wait for them to experience it! This was my third DCL cruise this year so I think waiting until 2014 might be hard, but financially necessary

I'd loved to hear your experiences from the week....

Take care,
Heather
