Hello everyone! I am so excited about our upcoming vacation! I am usually an avid trip planner, trips are booked well in advance and I spend a lot of time researching. We booked this cruise 4 days ago, which is throwing my planning off, but on the other hand, when you book a cruise at the last minute you have much less time to wait for it!
My husband had plans to take the week of July 8th off from work, and we were going on a road trip with my Mom. Well, my Mom cancelled on us on Wednesday. DH has been having a really stressful time at work lately, and I wanted to do something fun and relaxing. We sailed on the Dream in November 2011 and had the time of our lives, so I checked the DCL web site, saw there was a Fantasy sailing coinciding with his vacation, called him, called the travel agent and within 4 hours we were booked! We booked an IGT stateroom, so I guess we won't know where will be for another week or so. We are going to look into an upgrade when we arrive at the port, but really we will be happy just to be on the ship, so as long as we have beds somewhere on the Fantasy we'll be good!
Our first cruise was a three night on the Disney Dream. Our son was two weeks shy of 2 years old on that cruise. We had a wonderful time! One of my fondest memories was soon after we boarded the ship, we were wandering around just checking things out when we ran into Pluto in a hallway. Pluto got down on the floor and played with my son. My son was delighted and pulled at his whiskers and just had a great time. We were the only people in the hallway and Pluto stayed for a few minutes. Our servers were also fantastic. The first night my son was a little fussy at dinner and it seemed like a fruit bowl magically appeared for him! Every single CM was dedicated to keeping our son happy, and all of the parents out there know when your kid is happy you are happy!
We are really looking forward to experiencing more of that Disney magic in a few short weeks!
