Hello fellow DISNEY fans.
First let me start by saying how helpful the DIS boards have been to me just by ready what others do, have liked, and disliked-or would have changed.
We will be traveling on the Disney Dream on March 2nd, 2014 for the 4 night cruise. (We booked the day they were released- so a few months ago). Everyone I know thought I was crazy for booking so early, but as you all know it is so much fun planning and looking forward to the trip- not to mention save up for it.
I will be traveling with my DH, DS(5 at the time of cruising), DD, Dstep-mom, DM, DSis, and neighbors. All in all there will be 10 of us right now. I hope we get more to join us.
After reading many reviews and when the day came to book, we all got the room choices that were on our list. We are staying in 5020- if you have not read about this room- oh my- I'm so excited we got it. It's more like a suite than room. The Williams Family did a nice review of the room so thanks to them. Here is a link to a review thay did: http://toddjodybrent.blogspot.com/2011/05/disney-dream-staterooms.html
My dad and step-mom got a verandah room on deck 10- here's a video I found on you tube taken by inside the magic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9V8lJVsnv4c
My mom and sister are on deck 9 in an interior room.
Our neighbors are right next to us with connecting doors.- Our sons are 6 weeks apart and are best little friends.- I'm sure this will be nice at times, but hard at other times when trying to get them to settle down.
I was on our FE thread earlier and wrote this which lead to starting a pre-trip report:
"Ok Ladies-
It's been 4 months since we first started this group and still it's only the three of us. Will we ever get more of us to join? I did a little shopping over the last week. Of course I know we don't know how many will join us, and their ages, but I picked up a few items for little ones. Not sure how many really do travel with real little ones, but I saw something cute on sale and said- i'll put it in the box with the other items. (I already have the adult FE gift all figured out ! Yeah!)
Well, guess what- going to MGM on Wednesday (4-10-12). Just a day trip. It's nice that I can get over to the "EARS" in 1 1/2 hrs. We are getting the three day and have plans with my mom to go next month (staying at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort) My DM is taking DS to Magic Kingdom while my DH and I go to epcot. But that is not until first week of May. So this is just a little day over at MGM with DH and DS. I have not been in 10 years and DH and DS have never been. We always head to MK or Epcot. So I'm excited to see all the new stuff they have added for little ones.
I tried today to check and see how much the Comfort Inn and Suites is going to be, but they have not yet release March 3, 2014 to book yet. We are thinking of doing the check-in/ check-out for a day at Atlantis. Also thinking of Blue Lagoon for the Dolphin interaction, but not sure as my DH will be going to gamble at Atlantis no matter what!
I was thinking of starting a pre-trip report. I just might. . . . Since I am having so much fun planning."
So that leaves me here. So as you read we are off to Disney for the day. I will be sure to fill you in on my MGM day and other cruise planning items when I get back.
Thanks in advance for sharing in my special cruise planning!!!!
