Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Interesting!


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

I'm very excited to see the Disney Wonder come to Southern California. The DLR can now get in on the extremely popular land and sea packages, which also benefits us as well.

On the flip side, you can imagine this will result in some job losses, particularly for those Disney Cruise Line Cast and Crew Members who are based in Central Florida and don't want to relocate west :( .

Not too likely, as the Disney Dream will be coming to Port Canaveral at the same time. It's a larger ship, and will thus need more port support staff, not less.

Is "Dream" the official name? I hadn't heard exactly what they were calling the new ships. We love the Wonder, but maybe getting a shot at the newer ships will be exciting too. Guess I'll have to start saving my pennies now.

Yep, Dream and Fantasy are the two new ships. I really wasn't sure it was appropriate for Disney to get anywhere near my fantasies though. :eek:

Yes, I will admit that many of my fantasies are not kid friendly in the least, so don't really fit with the whole family friendly nature of Disney.

It should help that the official names are "Disney Dream" and "Disney Fantasy." If any of your more non-kid-friendly fantasies still involve Disney, I... really don't want to know about it. :rolleyes:

Aww, you sure? It seems like you are being sarcastic, I think you really want all of the most juicy details.
