We have just sat and read this TR again for around the 8th time! We are booked on the EBTA in May 2013 and just love sitting here, reading your fantastic report, you have put so much time and effort into it.
I noticed that when you were boarding, you wrote about trying to work out your rotational dining from your KTTW card...do you know which restaurants are which night then before you board? Do they give you that information at check in?
It is is our first Disney cruise so it's all very new to us!
Again, thanks so much for a wonderful report. I am sure we will read it a few more times before May
gonecrusin said:Hi, Tink,
Susan (gonecrusin) from the EBTA group and on the EBTA with you. Been reading Kevin's TR all day and dreaming. Yes, your dining rotation is on your KTTW. L for Lumiere, A for Animators Palate and P for Parrot Cay. Ours was LPALPAL for the 7 night.
DAY 6 - May 19th, 2011 - Day At Sea #4 (Part 1)
At 9:00 promptly, the alarm went off. Ahhh...another peaceful day at sea ahead of us! At 10:00, we all went upstairs to enjoy another lovely breakfast at Topsider.
My breakfast of champions:
After we ate, we made our way back downstairs. As we walked through the art hallway, I took some pictures of my favorite, well, pictures! (All Don “Ducky” Williams)
We then went to the Promenade Lounge and played some Uno while the Shopping Lady talked. At 11:20, we made our way to the lobby for the “Character Festival.”
Thanks for your detailed TR. I'm enjoying reading about your experiences and am equally impressed with the pics. In 40 days, we'll be sailing on our first DCL cruise. A couple of questions:
- we've done 2 WBTA in the past and appreciated gaining an hour each time. How did you find losing an hour each day?
- my DD3 is very excited to meet the princesses, were the line ups awfully long?
Cheers,
Teri
Am beginning to pack now, will be taking 8 day Magic out of Galveston with my husband and then I will be traveling by myself transatlantic. My simple question is - what was the weather like during your crossing. Do I need more than one sweatshirt (I get easily bored with clothing). Should I pack an all weather coat, or, did you need a rain coat? Thanks so much!
Have a Magical day!
Thank you for the detailed trip report. On the 2013 EBTA!
AWESOME trip report!
Thanks for sharing!!!
