Hi Lisa! Welcome to the thread! So you are a bit of a Dream veteran, and will be able to give some of us newbies a few tips

Hi. I am Lisa. I'm traveling with my 3 teens and husband Rich. This will be our 3rd Dream cruise. We are hoping to arrive from the Chicago suburbs the day before and stay at the airport Hyatt. After the cruise, we plan to head back to DW and stay at the Swan until NY. My kids are not sure if they want to participate in a FE. They did last cruise. They are thinking they might be too old . LOL!!

Hi Lisa! Nice to have you onboard too. We are going be having fun!

It's so nice to start conversing with all of you. Loved knowing people on our last cruise. Can't wait to talk to all of you over the next year.

Hope the new year is treating everyone well. I am hoping the time flies and it will soon be ready to starting packing!

Have made big decisions, driving not flying, staying at Coronado pre cruise, and I think I even found a unique FE! Next up is getting passports. Mine expired and Alexandra only has old one from Guatemala ! Happy winter everyone

Hi all, so my family are complete rookies at cruising. My husband and I will be cruising with our 9 yo twin boys. I've heard about the fish extender and think this would be a fun addition. Do you still have room for another family?

We are searching for a FE as well!! This is our first cruise as a family, and Disney cruise for all!! We are AP at WDW and will probably try to stay somewhere on site leading up to our departure date - My husband, our 2 kiddos (8yo DS and 5yoDD), mother, father AND brother are all going and we can't wait! Anyone ready to make another group? This is all new to me!

Well we finally booked round trip airfare. Boy was it expensive! We are staying at the Swan once we finish the cruise, until after New Year's Eve. So glad to see some new families joining us. Still hoping to see some teens. DCplanegirl, we also have twin boys, but they are 15.

 

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

Glad you managed to book your airfair it is expensive that time boy oh boy! How nice re The Swan

The small FE linked on the front page run by Paula is now closed, but of course more FE's can be arranged by others

Great to hear everyone's plans coming along!

I'm booked for my son Idris' sweet 16. He turns 16 on 1/1/2016. He requested cruise and parks so we are doing this cruise and then we will be at Kidani Village 12/28-31 and Bay Lake Tower 12/31-1/3. He asked a few of his friends to go. Me and teenage boys. Give me strength. LOL

 

[Disneymadhouse]

How lovely - a sweet 16 And please forgive my ignorance as I'm in the UK and we don't "do" sweet 16 over here - I thought they were only celebrated for girls!! How super that boys get to celebrate too!

Hi everyone! We are so excited to be booked on this cruise! My parents are taking us (my family of 5, and my sisters family of 3) on this cruise as a Christmas gift. It will be our 6th Disney cruise and the first for the rest of them. My kids are so excited since it has been a few years since we have been on a cruise! We have really enjoyed doing the FE in the past, so we would definitely be interested. If it is too late, I will consider organizing another. Looking forward to passing the time til the cruise with all of you!

 

[Disneymadhouse]

Hi Michele! Wow, 6 cruises, you will be able to answer lots of questions we are bound to have then!
My DD still doesn't know that we are going on the cruise - she knows we are going to WDW and we have suggested going to Chef Mickeys for her birthday breakfast ( 24th Dec) but hasn't asked (yet!) what we will do for the rest of the day on her birthday!
