Lisa (njmom)!!! I was confused for a minute about which Meet thread I was reading - the Baltic or Christmas! Glad to see you all considering the Baltic as well - can't wait to meet you in a few weeks.
As for category, we're going not only for a Cat. 6, but specifically cabin 6116 (so no one else ask for that one, ok?) We have done three DCL's - the first was a Cat 4 which was fabulous but we did a Cat. 6 for the Med and found it to be plenty of space for the four of us and 10-nights worth of stuff. We had 6116 then, and also again on the Wonder in April and will sail it in on the Magic in December
We enjoy having the verandah, and DH sits out there a lot while I'm usually off roaming the ship. I like having it particularly in the early morning when we are arriving in port and the boys are still sleeping -- I will creep out and take those early a.m. pictures, then get dressed and go have breakfast before waking them up. And DH really enjoys being out in the air and not having a bajillion people around. He does a lot of reading on the verandah, and he and the boys consume a lot of ice cream out there, too
So we're all excited about Tuesday!!!!
Carol - thanks for the DVC info. How much of a DVC Cash Discount is generally offered (%-wise, roughly)? Just thinking for future trip planning since it would have to be all paid up-front. I'm not prepared to do that for the Baltic -- in fact, we were at WDW this weekend for the Race for the Taste - and we were frugal with our money, with each time we didn't spend something recognizing that was a deposit in our Baltic account!
