Update from Meyer Werft:

Atlantiküberquerung startet am 19. Dezember 2010 Jungfernfahrt am 26. Januar 2011 ab Florida Bremerhaven, 9. Dezember 2010 – Heute übergab die Meyer Werft im Rahmen einer offiziellen Zeremonie das Familienkreuzfahrtschiff Disney Dream an Disney Cruise Line. Die Disney Dream ist mit einer Länge von 340 Metern und einer Breite von 37 Metern das größte Passagierschiff, das jemals in Deutschland gebaut wurde. Sie bietet Raum für bis zu 4.000 Gäste. Ihr Bau begann nach einer intensiven Planungsphase am 2. März 2009 und ist jetzt erfolgreich abge-schlossen. „Die Disney Dream ist ein sehr besonderes Schiff. Sie verbindet die hohe Schiffbaukompetenz der Meyer Werft mit den innovativen Unterhaltungstechnologien Disneys”, so Karl Holz, President Disney Cruise Line. „Das neueste Schiff unserer Flotte wird schon in Kürze Gäste jeden Alters begeistern”, so Holz weiter. „Ich bin stolz, das bisher größte Schiff der Meyer Werft an Disney ausliefern zu dürfen”, so Bernard Meyer, geschäftsführender Gesellschafter der Werft. „Während der letzten Jahre konnte ich Tag für Tag verfolgen, wie dieser ,Traum’ Wirklichkeit wurde. Jetzt wird er auch für Gäste erlebbar. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Disney Cruise Line und unseren Zulieferern war ausgezeichnet und besonders kreativ – eine enorm wichtige Voraussetzung für die Realisierung dieses Projekts.” Bevor die Disney Dream Bremerhaven verlässt, werden in den nächsten Wochen noch weitere Mitglieder der Besatzung an Bord gehen und letzte Lieferungen geladen. Am 19. Dezember legt das 130.000-BRZ-Schiff dann zur Atlantiküberfahrt ab. Die voraussichtliche Ankunft im Heimathafen Port Canaveral in Florida ist am 4. Januar 2011. Mit der Jungfernfahrt am 26. Januar 2011 startet die Disney Dream dann in ihre erste Reisesaison. Hier stehen Drei- bis Fünf-Nächte-Bahamas-Kreuzfahrten auf dem Routenplan. Zweiter Disney Neubau – die Disney Fantasy Das Schwesterschiff der Disney Dream, die Disney Fantasy, wird derzeit auf der Meyer Werft in Papenburg gebaut. Sie soll am 7. April 2012 zur Jungfernfahrt von Port Canaveral ablegen, so die Planung. Von Port Canaveral wird sie abwechselnd auf Sieben-Nächte-Kreuzfahrten in der östlichen und westlichen Karibik verkehren.

Must be too cold to be out on deck. The only ones I see outside are the seagulls.

There were some passengers on board, right?

Thanks Michael! I could make out some of the words, but not enough to bother trying.

OMG Terrie that purse is TOOOOOO CUTE!!!

 

[peloha86]

I HAVE A WICKED COLD FROM FLORIDA GOT IT THE MORNING I WAS SITTING AT BUS STOP AT 7am WAITING TO GET TO THE BACKSTAGE SAFARI TOUR.

I can send you my supply of pharmacopia, esp the 'special' cough syrup...

Hope you feel better.

1 More SLEEP, then we visit the mouse AGAIN

Lucky! Have fun!!!

14 YEARS

Thank you! Wally got me a limted edition Isabella Fiore Minnie Mouse bag. I had wanted that one and the Snow White one when they initially came out on the Disney Store website but they sold out immediately Now I only see them from time to time on Ebay for double the price He did say I have another present on the way but won't tell me what it is

I think our HOA would have an issue if he comes home with a live elephant But I see no problems with an antique Steiff stuffed elephant on wheels circa 1910. If he can find one it will only run him 3 or 4 thousand which is surely less expensive than a live one. Just sayin'

Congratulations Terri and Wally!

Here She comes. on her way home

This photo was actually taken when she was on the way from the ship yard to EMS( whatever the rest of that place is spelled, I dunno LOL)

My DVC Cast Member emailed me the same exact picture back on November 16.

Not that it matters when it was taken, just the fact that she is moving closer to us climbing aboard each day that passes!

Thanks for posting the picture Mickey

Hello Everyone.

It's a little chily here @ WDW (for us floridians anyways), but we'll take it.

We had our very own special early EMH (Extended Magical Hours) today.

We went to check-in @ SSR earlier this afternoon and apparently, we weren't suppose to be up here until tomorrow (we had made dinner ressies for today, but not for a place to stay)

...So we just extended our stay by a day (early that is)

The holiday decorations at the Beach Club / Boardwalk resorts are AWESOME (as always), especially the gingerbread house & carousels (took us a tad longer than usual to find the hidden mickeys on them)

Tried to book dinner @ Kouzzina's but its closed for refurbishment.

Sometimes you just have to make sacrafices in order to keep the others happy.

Enjoy your stay ... another D23 event?

Yep, is was on this thread, not roughly a month (or less) ago, Debbie.

It was called something like Waltograph? and was supposed to be included with older versions of MS Word, but is now availble online somewhere.
