Hi all,
My Wife is getting fed up already about my pre-cruising fun. I need to share it, so I figured to share it with people I presume understand my insanity. This is good for me and my marriage![Title :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/thumbsup2.gif)
Introduction:
Me (male, 40 now 41 when we cruise), DW (54, 55 when we cruise). Long time Disney lovers. Living in the Amsterdam area (The Netherlands, Europe). We have been regular visitors of Disneyland Paris for the last 15 years. Several years holding annual passports. We stayed of property (camping, hotels) and on property (all hotels, except for the Disneyland Hotel).
We Honeymooned in WDW in september 2004: 6 nights Grand Floridian and 6 nights Coronado Springs. We lived through hurricane Jane in CS. It really was the best two weeks of our life!
We never, ever thought of cruising. You know: that's for retired people and we haven't reached that age by far! Until we discovered that Disney owns cruise ships. Wow! We're interested. But will we like staying on a boat for several days? Who knows how boring that could be? So this idea was shelved for some time.
In 2007 we set out plans to visit Greece. A long time wish of DW, but after budgeting travel, stay and local things we decided it was cheaper to fly to Orlando and so we did for our second trip to WDW: September 2007, staying at PC and AS-Movies. We celebrated our 3rd anniversary with a breakfast at O'Hana: love the pineapple bread. In May 2009 we took DSS and DSD for DW's 50th Birthday and staying in PC again.
Now the ideas of visiting Greece and cruising Disney remained, together with our desire to visit Rome. Until a few months ago DCL released the itineraries for 2014, including this 9-night cruise out of Venice to Greece. We were sold. This was going to be our first cruise. And so my planning machine took the job, figured out that the first of the two sailings was to be ours.![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](http://www.disboards.com/data/smilies/tongue.gif)
And so we're booked and the PT fun has begun. However DW has quite a low threshold for this in which she differs very much from me![Title :dance3: :dance3:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/dance.gif)
Please bear with me for the next 382 days. Much appreciated.
