Sept 22, 2013. A Pirate's Life on the Dream.

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

right now is do I spend the money to do the fireworks dessert party or do we go back to the resort to watch and eat their dessert....any thoughts?

My vote always goes for having your cake and eating it! Dessert and fireworks! I think with DVC we can come to the top of the world lounge to see the fireworks at Bay Lake Tower. We must do that one night! Love the contemporary resort. Enjoy!

Hi! This will be out first cruise ever. We are super excited Our group consists of my DH, DD (4), mother, cousin(12) and myself. I heard about the fish extenders...what exactly is it and can we still sign up?

 

[HiMagicFan]

Welcome aboard! - there is a post earlier about pm'g stephieann your information so she can add it to the FE list....she is kinda busy right now with her family reunion and husbands deployment and may not answer you right away. The other way is to add the FB page that they have. I don't have FB so I just pm'd Stephieann.

the FE is where you hang something out side your door on the fish and then you exchange surprises with the people on the list. The surprises can range from craft items (which are sometimes soooo awesome) to bought items (my speed). You can either do for everyone in the cabin or just the cabin depending on what you want to do.

then when you get on board, you deliver your surprises and look forward to getting yours when you return to the cabin

Oh welcome! Happy Birthday Mom for the 29th! Very excited too! Counting the days. We are from the UK. Only 112 days to go now from UK time! It's me Paula and DW. It's our 3rd Disney cruise. 5th cruise in total.

 

[HiMagicFan]

So this month I will get to do my ressies!!! I only need Palo for brunch. I am hoping there will still be reservations as I am not sure what time the DCL Transportation will get to the pier

I was going to pre-order my rainforest passes but am thinking that maybe I will just get them on board. What do you all think? I have heard it is cheaper if you pre-purchase even if it is $1 - that's an extra dollar for room service.

 

[HiMagicFan]

So my sister and i have finally gotten an opportunity to talk story a bit about the trip -

She doesn't want to do the midship detective agency!

she doesn't want to order mickey bars!

she doesn't want to do the pirate photo night.

I am so hoping that once we get to disney she will have a change of heart!

I would pre order them for sure. Secure the price , get yourself a discount and have it to look forward to. Less admin more fun time on board! Sounds great what do you get for a rainforest pass?

 

[trickiwoo]

My cruise is now paid in full... for the 2nd time!

Haha, I originally booked an inside stateroom because I was really excited about the Magic Portholes. And the trip was paid in full! But as we are getting closer to the cruise... I've come the realization that I will get more enjoyment out of a verandah than a Magic Porthole! So I upgraded! And I just paid off the balance!

Oh, this trip cannot get here soon enough!!!!

Yup ~ I think you are right and I am gonna pre-order them...something to look forward to if my sis doesn't want to do all that fun stuff (then I can send her here and do the fun myself).

I believe you get to use the thermal chairs as well as the different showers or jaccuzi type rooms (not sure if I got the name right as I don't spa too often and just call them shower and heat rooms)

We figured that due to the length of our trip and the shortness of the cruise that we would just keep our inside Magic Porthole.

I think for you it will be great to chill together on the balcony and celebrate your anniversary!

how wonderful you were able to get the upgrade and be paid in full! yeah

We're travelling with my parents who are getting an inside stateroom. I figure I can go to their room to check out their Magic Porthole! And they can come to our room to check out the verandah! Everyone wins!

Me and a mystery guest TBA at a later date.

Hi sorry guys but as much as I love being part of this FE it's got to big for me with my disabilities. So can I kindly withdraw ? I still will belong to facebook and this thread if that's ok. Love you all! Going to start a smaller FE of last minute bookers that haven't joined one of no more no 8 staterooms so I can get round them all!

Sorry to mess you around! The FE I did before was only 5 so I thought they were all that size lol!
