my dad and I might be on this one as well, we are either going to book this one, the one in June, or the transatlantic home, who knows yet, at least we have till the 14th to decide
The only thing we are going to do different this time is hopefully fly out the last day instead of staying over one more night. We stayed in Barcelona one more night and my kids fell asleep during the double decker tour. It was pretty funny to watch their heads bobbing all over the place. We are gonna try and arrive 5 days early to explore London.
Hello Beth & Stacey, Jack
I try to think if I have met you on Panama Canal but I remember your DW2DH&DS.
And
I did met Vicky and Greig as they are lovely couple.
That good you all are coming back on Cruise to Batlic.

Hello
We are thinking about it

Hey,
Just thought I would put a link out to see who is planning on the July 6th Northern European Capitals itinerary. Also, any speculation on whether there will be a shore excursion to Berlin, late night St. Petersburg white nights excursion, or just thoughts on excursions in general. How about the port you are most looking forward to. Whether anyone is planning on a few nights pre/post cruise in London or Disneyland Paris. Looking forward to chatting with and eventually meeting all of you.

we're in as well.
I am going to put in a tentative yes.
I have always wanted to go to Russia and this meets my criteria. I pointed out to my DH that RCCL had the same itinerary and was significantly cheaper (we love RCCL) but he said "Let's stick with Disney". We just got off the EB Repo so we would love another cruise to look forward to sosoon.
Sooo.... here's hoping we are on the ship.
Hi everyone! Hi Cindy I made it over! I'm Lissa and will be traveling with my mom Nancy and my brother Matt all adults. We are deffinetly booking this on the 14th. This will be our third Disney cruise the first was the med cruise where we meet Cindy and the others. We are excited about this cruise even though a long way off. I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Wow this is shaping up to be a reunion cruise! Nice to see so many of my Med cruisin buddies...
Here is a Heads Up for any DVC'ers thinking of using points...
Hi Scottishwee, yup, I remember you, it will be nice to finally meet in person! We got married in Bonnyrigg so want to go there and relive our romantic moment. Plus we didn't get to spend as much time as we wanted in Edinburgh so definately want to be there a few days, then we will probably head up to Stirling, let our oldest see all the William Wallace stuff. I'm sure he'll get a kick standing on the top of the monument going, "FREEDOM!" He's that kinda kid. Then we'll head down to Dover... maybe... I'll give them a day in London! The little one has been there before, the big one hasn't, I think I'll tease him!! Make him ride the double decker and not get off!!
Scottishwee - We are all hoping to join this cruise too!
I ran this by my boss yesterday - problem is according to policy, he cannot preapprove any vacation in advance, and we have sort of a lottery system. I really may have to quit my job to take this cruise, LOL!
Here is a little profile of us: Myself, Carol; husband John, Daughters Kristen and Jennifer. I have been moderating here on the DIS for over 10 years and I am thoroughly addicted, lol. Also addicted to DCL and DVC! We were fortunate to have been on the 7/18/07 Mediterranean 10 day cruise and adored it! The girls are both graduating - Jen with her Bachelors in Registered Nursing and Kristen with her Masters in Education. Exciting times ahead! With a half day at work tomorrow, I think we are going to crunch numbers some more - a bit difficult when we don't have the DVC points chart yet for the cruise, but will have to do our best. I want to make the final decision asap, by Saturday I hope so I can put myself to planning full force, lol. Nice to meet everyone here on the thread, and wonderful to see so many friendly faces that we already know!

Hi everyone. My wife (Pam), son (Otto;2) and me (Scott) are planning on going as well. We just got off the Wonder (with a bonus day at Castaway Cay) yesterday morning. It was our first DCL cruise and we had a blast. We booked 7 days on the Magic next November and are now deciding if we can afford both cruises or not. Push comes to shove Europe wins. We were planning to visit friends who live north of London the summer of 2010, so now we can visit them and take a cruise! I do a lot of work with people in Denmark. Think the IRS would accept the cruise as a business expense?

Hello~
I'm not sure how many would be interested in this information. I just hung up from member services (DVC) and found out some point totals required for this cruise- these are based on 2 adults and 2 kids-
--for cat 6 771 per adult
cat 8 652 kids--- 225 over 13 //212 under 13
cat 9 628
cat 10 574
I didn't ask for anything over cat 6--I was in shock over 771 and thought my heart couldnt take it.
Wanted to add for cash prices---under 12 $1485 over 12 $1475 and adult $4395 (cat 8)
They are opening early on the 14th at 8am.
Good Luck!
Joanne
