JerseyshoreBruce Posted October 21, 2013 #326 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I wondered if anyone else caught on that it was the Disney Dream! I know the feeling of tailing this fleet. We were practically port by port with DCL Fantasy on CCL Dream and practically drooled over it. For some reason, it seemed SO MUCH BIGGER than the CCL Dream, not sure why? They are both pretty big. Well anyway we got set foot on that DCL Dream beauty about 5 weeks after the CCL Dream! It definitely and totally lives up to its reputation for us! First DCl and definitely not the last. And speaking of DCL Magic, with all her new 'work' with refitting multimillion $$ dry dock, she is looking QUITE nice and we can't wait to be sailing her in May! Does Disney have casinos? My wife likes casinos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyhova Posted October 21, 2013 Author #327 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Loved your review, and sense of humor.

Shyhova Posted October 21, 2013 Author #328 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Excellent review! I had so much fun reading it. My son thinks I'm crazy because i keep laughing at your commentary. Your discussion of your "caution pants" was priceless. LMBO....You know...somehow I think those pants gonna come back to haunt me LoL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyhova Posted October 21, 2013 Author #329 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I am enjoying your report so much. I leave on my first ever cruise on Fantasy in about 3 weeks. I love your pictures. Thank You!!! I have a question I hope you can help with. When in Port in Nassau and Freeport, which side of the ship will be facing the city? Actually, I noticed in Nassau they park backed in or straight in...IdK what that depends on, so I guess it would depend on if the captain backs in or not. Now in Freeport....I have NO IDEA:(....Dang, I wish I knew. Hopefully someone on here can help us with that. As your final post for the review had me wiping tears from my eyes, I had to start from the beginning to get my laugh on again. I enjoyed your review very much. Only one thing, can I have my favorite ship back? Aww...I cried too...like a little baby tear LoL. Thank you!!!....You can't have her back though unfortunately...I have to at least sail her one more time!!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosesgt Posted October 22, 2013 #337 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I decided to look at you review because last year my DW and I took our grand daughter on the Fantasy. We loved it, and living about 18 miles from Charleston I will cruise on her again. I usually read the reviewers first couple of sentences and then usually end up just scrolling through the pictures. So I read and laughed and read some more. Started last night at work and just finished. What an awesome review, great pictures and you definitely have a gift for putting your thoughts to print that keep the rest of us addicts wanting more. You need to sign up for your next cruise so we can have something to look forward to. The best of luck with your final semester, I'm sure you are going to do well. I'll end this by saying; Hi, my name is John and I'm addicted to cruising. See you at the next Cruisers Anonymous meeting.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babsee101 Posted October 22, 2013 #338 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I think we should pitch in to send this guy on more cruises just so we can read his reviews! lol :D Thanks for taking the time to write this review Shyhova. It was awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travellink Posted October 22, 2013 #339 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Enjoyed your review and you have a great writing style. I have never sailed on Carnival but maybe someday as Charleston is the closest port to our home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmudgeCat Posted October 22, 2013 #340 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Leading up to the cruise we kept telling each other "hey...we are gonna have a blast...no matter what....we on a cruise and we are Together"...and u know what?...we really did. That's EXACTLY the attitude my honey bunny and I have when we cruise. How can it be anything less that spectacular when we're on *vacation* and on e a *cruise* no less? With each other? That is the good life for us!!!!!!!! All the rest is gravy! :D My hubby actually proposed to me on the Carnival Miracle, on his first cruise, on the first formal night (evening of the second full day I think?). I thought he was hating his first cruise the first two days... he looked so miserable. Turns out he was just nervous as all get-out about proposing (the proposal came as a complete surprise to me since I don't think we'd talked about the topic of marriage for over a year prior). Funniest part? He was partially sick to his stomach b/c he couldn't find the engagement ring he'd hidden the morning we flew out to Fort Lauderdale, and he had to buy a cheap @ss ring from the ship store that turned my finger GREEN all week! LOLOLOL! I love that green-finger ring!!!! :D :D He ended up proposing alot earlier than he planned because he was afraid I'd see the ring purchase on our shipboard account, LOL!!!!! I'm not sure why I just wrote that story here (I guess because it was his first cruise... and cruises make for great proposal backdrops should that ever arise ;)). He did have a ball after that night! Thank you again for a fantastic review!!! I'm sending the link to your review to some of my friends/ colleagues who are going on a group cruise in Dec. 2014 that I'm sponsoring so they can see what an awesome time they will have! And I'm coming back to re-read this sucker in a few weeks- you have me so pumped! 48 days! To Cruising!!!!!

cantwait2cruise Posted October 22, 2013 #341 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Thanks for a great review. We went on the Fantasy back in March and had a wonderful time. I was definitely hooked after my first cruise. Hope you get to go on another one soon!!! P.S. I live in Winston-Salem. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamrose228 Posted October 22, 2013 #342 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Awesome review......we did the Fantasy in 1991....haha, you were a mere baby then.....it was a grand ship then and still is.

tranquilreign Posted October 22, 2013 #344 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Our bags were not there yet so we put our carry-ons down and headed up to the lido deck. It was around 1:30 at this time and of course it was jumping. We stopped at the Mongolian Grill which you would have thought they were slipping little gold pebbles in the bowl or something cause the line was bananas. After 20 minutes or so I did manage to get this... And finally...THIS Let me just get this out the way before the trolls come out. I know I am a 6'3" black dude and everything but I just don't like beer. I can fruity drink with the best of them though...don't judge me!!! LoLoL Besides...them Carnival drinks got a knockout blow that you just don't see coming till its too late. One minute you sucking them down and chasing them with wine from the room and next thing you know you doing the cupid shuffle with a group of grandmas from Boise....*shrug* HA!!! Honest and so funny.
