Make sure you bring warm clothes. We just did the May sailing to Hawaii and was very suprised how cold it was in the middle of the pacific. We had a great time, but we weren't as prepared for the cold weather. Have a great time!!!!!
I can't believe it WE ARE BOOKED!!!!!!!!
Now I gotta catch up on this thread!!
We would like to be a part of EVERYTHING
Please add us to FE and let us know if I am missing out! Do we have a logo for our group?
Can't wait to "meet" you all online and on the boat!!

Hi all! I just couldn't keep quiet any longer. We booked this cruise about a week ago, but have been trying to keep it on the down low until we tell and invite my cousin this weekend. But I know I can count on your guys not to tell on me! LOL! I'm just so excited and I'm seeing some familiar name of people I have cruises with before!
My father and I will be on this cruise for sure and I hope my cousin can make it too. We took her on her very first Disney cruise just a few weeks ago and she loved it. So I know she would love this. The three of us have been planning a trip to California (we live in Florida) to visit Disneyland for some time and the cruise dates line up so nicely with our DL trip already being October 7-13. This will be the farthest my cousin has every traveled from Florida and only her third plane flight. So don't you think adding on the 2 week cruise would be fantastic for her too?!?
Anyway, dad and I will do the FE for sure and I'll have to keep you posted on the rest and about adding my cousin. Fingers crossed she can make it work!
Thanks!
So excited we found this forum. We booked on the Wonder to Hawaii and can't wait to go!
My DH and I are going and will meet our DS in Hilo where he is attending school. I need to read everything and see whats going on
Happy sailing everyone. We've decided to cancel and will be doing one of the Galveston cruises for spring break next year.
Sherri and family
I'm really curious about how cold its going to be.. I know October isn't the warmest month, but I wonder if you can use the pools or lay out? Are we talking jackets and long pants.. ???
Welcome new cruisers (Monique I won't tell)
Thanks for keeping my secret. We are having dinner with my cousin on Sunday (I'm trying to get us a table at the Poly) and we will tell/invite her then.
We had a wonderful time too. But to answer your question, it was cool and very windy. Like they do on the Alaska cruise, they had blanket stations available on deck. The pools are kept warm so as long as you don't mind the cool when you get out, enjoy them. A couple days they closed all but the adult pool because it was to rough and it was more like surfing then swimming. I had wished I had brought a warm sweater or sweatshirt. Of course it was comfortable inside.
Well we are now DEFINITELY going!
I'm hoping that the weather is going to be nicer in October than it was in April, but I'm sure there will still be cool evenings on the ocean. I would be sure to bring a sweater (or sweatshirt) for evenings on deck.
I'm so excited to be experiencing this fantastic cruise. I am hoping they extend our port times to give us more time in the ports, but I guess we will have to just wait and see.
So you can add 4 adults and an 11 year old to the group of those going now
Well we are now DEFINITELY going:
Greetings all from Anchorage, Alaska!

Hi! I just booked this cruise! It will be me (mom, 45) and my 5 year old son on board. Can we still join the FE and FB groups? Looking forward to experiencing some Aloha with you all! I've been to Oahu, Maui and Hawaii before. Looking forward to Kauai and all of the other island again!
Hi ppartekim,
Sorry I'm late getting on the boards. Is it too late to order a shirt?

we are joining the ship as well, flying in from Holland. Marcel, Saskia, Meike (4) and Laura (3), GTY, early dinner.
Can't wait!
Hello!
Have been a lurker on the boards for a long time, but this is my first time posting! It is Walter and Karen in room 7022. We are late dining and don't do facebook (think we are about the only people on the planet that don't)
Hi everyone. Looks like we may be on this sailing as well (if everything works out!) Now I have lots of reading to do to catch up with all of you!
Aloha!
Moments ago I clicked the purchase button! I am so excited I can barely type!!! Hubs and I just told the kids..YAY, we are going on a DISNEY CRUISE, to HAWAII and we are flying to CALIFORNIA and we are taking you out of school to do it, and it is for TWO WHOLE WEEKS. They barely looked up from their pizza. I'm thinking we should leave them behind to feed the cat!
Is there a cruise list somewhere that I just haven't found?
Please add us to the list--wherever it may be:
Karen (DIS Name Rikersmom)
Kevin (my son)
Dora (my friend)
This will be Kevin (who is an adult) with two old(er) ladies. We all love cruising and we all love Hawaii. Looking forward to meeting everyone,
Karen

This is our 10th disney cruise and isn't the longest stretch that we've spent on-board. (We did first transatlantic and Mediterranean back to back.)
Hi ppartekim,
Could you add us to the list for shirts and lanyards? Still thinking about the FE. Not sure what to buy or make for that. Ideas?
