I WONDER if I will be cruising in 2017

So with the new changes to the Wonder (see article) I have Joe convinced to go on another one LOL

https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2016/06/disney-cruise-line-brings-new-experiences-and-enhancements-to-the-disney-wonder-this-fall/?CMP=SOC-FBPAGE20160602182235

Blondie LOVES all things Marvel and a new restaurant is right up our alley!

Here is what I am now pondering. We are just going to do a quick 3 day out of Canaveral going to Castaway. Should I go the "inexpensive" route with an inside cabin since it is so short or splurge for Concierge since it's only 3 days???? (probably the only time I would even consider it because of cost) Is it really worth it? Especially for just 3 days??

Now I just need to figure out how to get on the Magic! laugh And of course they are adding 2 more ships, but there is plenty of time to plan those!

I saw that article and I'm so excited! I totally want to eat at Tiana's Place muchlove

Hrmmm ... I think I would go for the concierge. Of course, when I have the chance I pretty much always go for the concierge. I really enjoy that extra bit of luxury.

Ah ha...I see what you did there.... laugh

I'm pretty psyched about Tiana's Place. We're probably going to do DCL in May next year. Not sure where or what ship yet. It kind of depends on how things go over the next few months.

The DCL always looks so amazing and I live vicariously through all of your posts! I've never done a cruise and don't think I could. I have too much ocean anxiety. laugh

Now I really want to take another cruise on the Wonder. I don't know when it will happen, though; we have the four-nighter on the Dream coming up and then we've booked another Royal Caribbean cruise for next year, this time with friends. But Alaska, definitely, someday.

My husband had a HUGE fear of dark water before we went on cruise. He loved it though.

Well, I just booked it. Just 3 nights on the Wonder in March! Castaway is our only stop which is fine by me!

My husband also has a big fear of large bodies of water. But he surprised himself with how totally not bothered he was by the big old ocean right outside our porthole. And on our Royal Caribbean cruise, off our private balcony. He sat out there with me. No fear at all. But LOL he will NOT go kayaking with me or anything like that. He says that on the ship you don't really feel like you're in the ocean.

Geordon said the same thing, he said that as long as he didn't look down over the edge that it just felt like he was in a big building on the shore.

Woot for a new cruise booking!
