A Fiendtastic DREAMY Cruise!! and Chillin in the Big Easy

[Hotmamac aka Misty 11]

This is a great TR!! Makes me want to go on a cruise right now!!

[mouseketab.....Carol 1,261]

Thanks for all the great comments folks!!!

Now that all my stuff at home is caught up I can do another installment!!

[momof3kids-Yvonne 594]

This is a great TR!! Makes me want to go on a cruise right now!!

Me too and I have never really cared to much whether I went on one or not. My thought has always been if I did decide to go on a cruise I would want it to be an Alaskan cruise. Neither hubby nor I are huge beach lovers. The pictures on this trip report though are making me rethink things. I would still love to take an Alaskan cruise, but a cruise to the Bahamas on the Dream looks mighty tempting as well.

[mouseketab.....Carol 1,261]

When we left off, we were getting ready for dinner and the show.

Tonights show was "Villains Tonight" Looking through our pics, I guess we didn't take cameras to the show. But it was enjoyable.

We always had time between the show and dinner for relaxing on the verandah

Tonight's dinner was at Animator's Palate.

Our friends David and Buff swapped tables with Grumpy and Grandpa. I kindof felt bad cause that was the night Melissa and Marty chose to dine at Palo or Remy (forget which). That left them sitting by themselves. But they graciously agreed that our friends could sit with us :-)

Here was our table marker

The walls in the dining room were decorated with great artwork

The plates were beautiful!

You could buy one of the chargers for a mere $25 in the store

I had the squash soup

Rick had the potato soup

Here is one of the appetizers

We forgot about the main course pictures, but here is desert

Our friend David is NOT a Foodie, and didn't have ANYTHING for dinner on Sunday night, but the servers graciously offered him the kids menu for the rest of the cruise, so he had a Mickey Bar for desert

Animator's has a great Crush show during dinner

After dinner, we went to the adult lounge - Evolution

There was a GREAT ventroliquist comedian there.

Not a great picture, but he was hilarious!!

After the show it was off to bed

Here is a pic of our turndown

Coming tomorrow - Castaway Cay!!

Great, great report! I've always wondered how Atlantis is - it's nice that you were able to visit but you weren't "stuck" there. :rofl2:

Love the Mickey Bar - that is sooooooo the mgsmom crew. Not foodies either - I can relate. The pics of your food look beautiful though! Maybe I should branch out more...

So, more questions like before - sounds like they have seating assignments for you at dinner? How many people are at each table for dinner? It seems like it would be fun to get seated with people you don't know and have a little fun chit-chatting! I'm a chatterbox, so that would be right up my alley.

Great pics! I was looking at you relaxing on the veranda between dinner and the show and I think I have those same sandals! Great minds think alike... :dance:

Can't wait for the next installment!

Yes, Rhonda arranged for us all to be seated near each other. They have tables for 4, 6, and 8. We were seated at a table for 8, and 3 tables for 4, but very close.

On our cruise we took 20 years ago, we were seated at a table for 8 with folks we'd never met.

[PureTcrazy...rita 380]

You do look relaxed on that verandah! I like relaxing! How do you decide where to eat for the night? Is there food available all the time? It bothers me that your friend didn't eat.

[doodlebug....Cherie 461]

That's my idea of a cruise, relaxing on my veranda, good food with friends and turn down service when it's bed time :banana:

[mouseketab.....Carol 1,261]

We do have assigned restaurants each night for our regular dining rotation. You also have the choice of booking the upcharge restaurant Palo or Remy for any night of your cruise. You can also order room service 24/7, or you can also go up to Deck 11 Cabanas and have a meal there. or go to Flos V8 Cafe and have fast food there.

David did look at the menu at Royal Palace before dinner and he did order the steak for the night, but for some reason, I guess they couldn't get it well done enought for him. I think he did get some room service after dinner.

So the main dining rooms are just one of MANY options for dinner,

[mouseketab.....Carol 1,261]

OK, folks since there are so many questions about meals and dining times, etc., this next update is more of a dining lesson.

There are three main restaurants on board. There are two dining times - 5:45 and 8:15. When you book you request early dining or late dining, and each night of your cruise you are assigned a dining time and a restaurant, and a table. Requests to be seated together are made through your travel agent or through Disney Reservations if you booked yourself. However, you have MANY other dining options.

At the main restaurants you can order as much or as little as you want. On some nights my DH ordered double entrees. You can also make special requests. For example, Grumpy (Dave) got into a conversation with our head waiter about a dish from his home country on the first evening. On the second evening, that dish was presented to him at dinner in addition to what he ordered. We passed it around our tables and all got a sample of it.
