It is $105.00 and needs to be paid when you arrive and park. Hope this helps!

Do they take credit cards?

Also, anyone know the exact time we can get on board? We plan to leave our house to give us enough time to be waiting behind Chuck and his family.

Does anyone have an extra zip tie that they could bring for me? (To secure the FE) We are off to the airport!

We too could use 3 zip ties for our rooms, neglected to put on list and forgot.

We ended up coming a day early and are staying at the Hyatt. It will make for a much more relaxed start to cruise for us.

Yes, they take credit cards. The port typically opens at 10am. It can be slightly early or later. The official time to get on the ship is 1pm but they almost always let you on at 12pm ish

I guess we will be right behind you in line. Chuck you can be line leader.

Signing off. See everybody at the port.

I'm closing out before heading to the port. Can't wait to see everyone!

Hey Turkeys! Anyone else home yet? We're back to the real world.

 

[seadooken]

Unfortunately . . . . We got home about an hour and a half ago. Sad its all over, but its good to be home.

 

[ICEMANPAD]

We are also back home.

Chuck

 

[Mean Queen]

Back too. We stopped by DTD for a bit of Christmas shopping (and one last Disney fix) on the way home.

So anyone else unable to resist the charms of Sharod and Chris at the DVC desk and buy some BLT points?

 

[Zandy595]

We had a great time too, but are also glad to be home.
I'm not even going to think about laundry until tomorrow.

Did you guys see Cindy's DH Matt at the show last night? He was hilarious.

Suzanne ~ When you get a chance, could you post one of your pictures of the Magic and Wonder together, please? I told my brother about the great shots you got and he would like to see them.

Got home at about 5:00 this evening. I cannot believe I was sitting on CC yesterday and now it's 40 degrees.

We didn't participate in the DIS meet, but just wanted to say that whoever had the fish tail FE on deck 7 aft, it was absolutely amazing!

That was Judy's (lexandme) mermaid FE.

I feel badly I didn't get to meet most of you. We had car trouble and got to the port late.

 

[love2travel]

Just going to post real quick.

We are home, safe and sound. It was a wonderful trip. It was nice to meet all of you and thanks to all of you for some amazing and very crafty FE gifts.

Hope to post a trip report in a few days after I climb out of the laundry mountain.

We got home about 2 hours ago- had an interesting flight home. Lots of turbulance but we made great time. Reality will set in tomorrow. Missed the great table service tonight- picked up fast food on the way home. Had a great time meeting some of you onboard. Loved seeing all the FE's and gifts. We have some very creative people on this thread. Judy- your FE rocked!

 

[lexandme]

Hi everyone. We stopped for wings for dinner in Pgh (not exactly Palo!) and just got home. Carried the luggage in and it's going to sit until tomorrow. Just too tired tonight!
Tim left a lot of cash in a drawer in our stateroom. He remembered on the way to the airport. Luckily our stateroom host Aldo was very honest. DCL will be sending us a check this week.
I can't believe it's over. We did book another onboard so I have that to look forward to. I have 2 years to save and to find a second job!
The mermaid FE and her battery pack and lights went into the garbage before we left. I didn't want to deal with another luggage search because of the wires and batteries sending up a red flag!
Can't wait to get Lexington from the kennel tomorrow. I missed him!
It was a great trip and it was even more special because I was able to share it with new friends!
And swimming with dolphins was even better than I imagined it would be. Going to watch the video tonight!
Hi Stacie!

Judy

KEN - My ship has sailed right off the page!

 

[Sinderelli]

We're home too- and exhausted!

Oh- I realized "Grand Cayman" was spelled wrong on the green FE cups I gave out, but hope everyone enjoyed them anyway! I almost died when I realized I spelled it with an "e" instead of an "a" but it was too late to do anything.

My two kids really enjoyed participating in the FE exchange- thanks to everyone for the creative gifts and yummy treats!

Most vacations, I say, "Ah, it's good to be home!"

But not this one. It was good to be on the Magic!!

I *did* end up succumbing to the call of the DVC. I had a little chat with the boys about the money I'm planning to spend on the Baltic cruise, and they convinced me to put it toward the DVC and let me use that same money again and again for all my vacations! The $500 shipboard credit didn't hurt either...

We didn't do everything we wanted. 7 days is not enough!!

I have a HUGE announcement to make! I fell in love on the Disney Magic.

With Jakob.

and... with Z.

And Christian.

And Fitz.

And Captain Mickey.

And Captain Jack.

Ok, and Jenny too!

Oh boy (oh boy oh boy) will I be back again!!

We went a little over budget, but I did basically all of my holiday shopping so I'm ok with that. It was totally worth it. The girls were wild, we were unstoppable (except at naptime) and we LOVED it! Who's planning their next cruise already??
