Woo Hoo! In 3 days my wife Leigh and I will embark on our 5th Disney cruise. This will be our 1st cruise on the Disney Fantasy. Our other 4 cruises have been on the Wonder. Even our Alaska cruise was aboard the Wonder.

Every time I thought I might know something about Disney, I discover there is sooo much more to learn. Here's a little bit of our history with Disney:

My wife and I have 3 wonderful daughters (DD). They are all grown. The oldest has 2 children and our youngest is about to start her last year of college. We've been going to Disney since 1998. Can you believe that was actually last century? We would have visited Disney sooner but we wanted to wait until our youngest could enjoy Disney.

In 2003, we became members in Disney Vacation Club (DVC). That was the best decision we ever made in regards to our vacations. This year's cruise will be our second that was covered by our DVC membership. This feels like a free 7 night cruise. That's in addition to the countless times we've stayed at Disney in both Florida and California.

In 2007, I started escorting my children's school classes as part of the Walt Disney World Youth Education Series (YES) program. The YES program provides the students and education on the various aspects of Disney. I've been an escort for several years.

In 2014, our middle DD entered the Disney College Program. Just a few weeks ago, she returned to Disneyland for her second time as part of the Disney College Program.

So you can see we have a strong Disney family. Having said that, I'm left wondering why I didn't hear about FE and this message board until 1 week ago?? Disney continues to be full of surprises. I guess that is one of the many reasons I enjoy Disney.

And if anyone who is on my cruise embarking Feb 20, be on the lookout for Obi Wan Kan-obi and Rey hanging out together. We decided to really join in on the festivities on the Star Wars cruise.
