Welcome Aboard. I'm also looking forward to meeting all the people I watch on the DIS shows. There are a few other solos or near solo cruisers on this cruise. Can't wait to meet you and all the DIS'ers (or is it DIS'ears)!1) - 7th cruise, number 4 for Disney
2) - Looking forward to finally meeting in person all the Dis unplugged crew as I've listened, watched them for many years now! And sitting in with the Dis Unplugged live broadcast of the ship on Thursday! hoping to make some Dis friends as I am a very Disney fan and yet here in my mid-west state I practically don't have any friends who love to talk and discuss all Disney. Watching all the Disney production of broadway plays. Hearing and Watching my 16 year old sociable son have the BEST time in the Vibe room and teen peers. Hearing the Disney background songs being pumped through the hallways of the rooms!
3) Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Beauty Belle, Little Mermaid.
4) My teenage son but I will be basically solo for most of the time so I am looking forward to meeting and possibly hanging out on deck or lounge with fellow Dis'ers! I love meeting people.
Can we plan some meet-ups on the Ship?
Welcome Aboard, @Tehanna. WOW, the Walt Disney Suite, how exciting. I thought Pete would have grabbed that one. Good for you and your belated 25th-anniversary celebration.1. What cruise # is this for you?
This is cruise number 4 four us, our second on the Dream!
2. What is one thing you are most looking forward to for the cruise?
We are staying in concierge for the first time ever, and due to a number of circumstances (including the additional credit for not cancelling), we are staying in the Walt Disney Suite! I am beside myself with excitement!
3. Who is your favorite Disney character?
If Marvel characters count, it would be Loki. Otherwise, I think I'll say Chip and Dale.
4. Who is joining you on your cruise adventure?
My amazing partner and spouse of 27 years. This is the second anniversary of our cancelled 2020 25th anniversary cruise.
We booked it prior to the Podcast being scheduled (sadly, not through Dreams Unlimited, so we'll have to live vicariously through all of your podcast fun - lesson learned!). I have heard that they may be in the Roy Suite, though.Welcome Aboard, @Tehanna. WOW, the Walt Disney Suite, how exciting. I thought Pete would have grabbed that one.

I got ours yesterday so they are definitely being sent out.I still haven't gotten my Dreams Unlimited gift bag yet
Ahh! You have a GSD as well! Who is this gorgeous pup!!Welcome Aboard. It's so nice to see this will be your first Disney cruise. If you have any questions about anything, this is the place.View attachment 663900
Hi and thanks for the information! First time cruiser out of Port Canaveral, looking at getting a rental car after the cruise as quickly as possible. Is it possible to get to Budget using the shuttle by 8:30 if all 4 of us go with luggage or pushing it? Currently have that as a pick up time. Also willing to send husband sans luggage and come back for the family but unsure of where pickup would be, traffic at pick up etc. Thanks for any help, quite in the dark here and don't want to mess it up for a member in our party. We cruise in July if that matters.Here is what we've done in the past... I've picked up a car at MCO then turned it in at the Budget at Port Canaveral. Check and see if your car rental has a location at Port Canaveral. If so, you can drop off your party and luggage at the port, then turn the car in and get a shuttle back to the port. Since you're already renting the car you can see if it's cost-worthy enough for you to do that, especially if you're going to get a transfer back to MCO.
You can also keep the car and pay for parking at the port. I think it cost me $85 last December when I parked for a 4-night cruise.
You can also turn the car in at the rental place (provided they have one), then take a shuttle after the cruise and get a rental car back to the airport.
I've done all three options above, lol.
When we went we all took the shuttle to the car rental place with our luggage. They will have shuttles going back and forth to pick up people.Is it possible to get to Budget using the shuttle by 8:30 if all 4 of us go with luggage or pushing it?

Would would typically be seated alone, just like in a regular restaurant that takes reservations.Question, I have a 6:30 reservation at Palo’s on Wednesday the 18th. Will they seat me with other guests or will I have to eat alone ( this did happen to me before on another cruise line)?
Gee, just what I want to. Oh well. Thanks for the answer, really appreciate.Would would typically be seated alone, just like in a regular restaurant that takes reservations.
By happenstance, Val & I are dining at Palo then also. Perhaps we can sit together?Question, I have a 6:30 reservation at Palo’s on Wednesday the 18th. Will they seat me with other guests or will I have to eat alone
