The dream christmas cruise dec 2-6 2012

Also I know someone had mentioned it before... Does anyone want to do a cabin pub crawl or a regular pub crawl. Even if its a few people I think it would be fun. If you want to do it just lost your names and cabins and I could organize it if everyone is ok with that.

Not sure what you mean but anything involving pub crawls, my husband is probably interested! lol

Ya I hope I make it out of this cruise sane lol.

But it should be fine. If you go on the deck plans and look at cabin 8588 it is a pretty large cabin, about twice the size of the usual cabins. It actually says it sleeps up to 6 people... Now that might be scary.

I've been in that same cabin on the Fantasy. It is larger because it is designed for wheelchair users. Which means only one bathroom. I would say it can sleep 5, but 6 would be a bit cozy. 2 in the bed, one on the comfortable couch, one on the pull down, and one on the murphy bed. Not sure where the 6th person would go - the verandah maybe?

Can anyone tell me from previous experience if they enjoyed the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. I have read mixed reviews. "Alot of money for a short time with alot of people standing in long lines for the extras" vs "loved it...do it every year...such a wonderful memory". Help.

WE LOVE IT THIS WILL BE OUR 5th TIME GOING. WEVE GONE THE PAST 4 YEARS AND ARE GOING AGAIN DEC6th. ITS THE ONLY TIME YOU WILL SEE THE CHRISTMAS PARADE WITH THE TOY SOLDIERS ETC. SPECIAL CHRISTMAS FIREWORKS. THE LINES ARENT THAT LONG AT THE FREE HOT CHOCOLATE AND COOKIES. LATER IN THE EVENING AFTER THE SECOND SANTA PARADE THE LINES GO DOWN, MOST OF THE SMALL KIDSARE GONE. YOU CAN ARRIVE AT THE PARK AT 5pm AND STAY UNTIL I THINK MIDNIGHT. THAT WAY YOU DONT HAVE TO USE A DAYS PARK PASS IF YOU DONT HAVE ANNUAL PASSES. THEY HAVE SPECIAL CHRISTMAS PINS FOR THE PARTIES THEY SELL. YOU CAN SMELL GINGERBREAD AS THE GINGERBREAD HOUSE FLOAT GOES BY. ITS WORTH THE $58.

We are going that day too!!! I heard you could get in at 4 pm though! I'll take that extra hour!! Lol

As a local, and a passholder for my entire life this is my $0.02.

MVMCP is a great substitute for a paid Magic Kingdom park day for those buying traditional/package tickets. Christmas time generally comes with long lines and is quite congested so the party alleviates SOME of what would otherwise be crazy. There are a few special touches and fireworks. I don't think it's *spectacular* but it's fun.

I do not think it's as well done as the Halloween party and Halloween isn't my favorite holiday.

You can enter with your event ticket starting at 4pm. The parties end at midnight.

So there is two ways we could do the pub crawl. It would make the most sense to have it on the sea day, and there is the option to have the traditional style pub crawl. We get the group together and visit each bar on the ship ( or as many as one can handle). When at the bar one of the "cabins" chooses a drink for everyone to try from the speciality drinks list. The next bar, a different cabin chooses, etc. now this one could get a little expensive as buying 5+ drinks in a row on a ship is not cheap.

The next way is for a cabin pub crawl. I have done this on other cruises and it is quite fun. Each cabin comes up with their own drink. So for example if I wanted my cabins drink to be rum and coke I would supply it for everyone to have one drink when they visited the cabin. When we go to the next cabin they have their own drink. This one is really economical because everyone is supplying their own alcohol.

So if everyone is interested, please let me know three things.

1) which option you like better, bar crawl or cabin crawl.

2) if participating what is your cabin number.

3) list everyone who is participating from your cabin.

I'm ok with adding everyone to the FE list, too. Sorry for the late response... we are leaving TODAY and I wasn't sure if I'd have time, but I did!

 

[katiebear]

Also, can someone direct me on how to cancel a port adventure? Can I do it online or should I call?

Hi everyone!

I am Monual's wife, and posting to say hi and that we are looking forward to meeting everyone on board!

We are also fine with adding any late comers to the FE list--and will likely be bringing a few extras "just in case" too. This is our first Disney cruise (so our first FE exchange) and we are totally winging it.

We won't be participating in a bar or cabin crawl.

So excited!

 

[PirateBob]

We will not be doing the cabin or pub crawl. We are not big drinkers. Sounds bad coming from a pirate.

SO glad other pirates are dry runners too!

Sounds like it could be a lot of fun, but neither of us drink. Sorry, but we're not up to participating in either of the crawls. Hope those who do have fun though.

Anton and I are interested in the pub crawl, not the cabin crawl. Sea day sounds good. What time? We are cabin 2510.
