I'll be doing three nights before the cruise and four nights after. I'm thinking BLT before and BCV after.

Oct. 17th should work just fine for us. We usually go in October for the Food & Wine Festival and last year was the first time we went to the Halloween party, dressed up and had a blast. Add a cruise to that next year and that will be awesome!

Cruise date no longer matters to us; we'll just be doing the dry land portion of the meet-up. We have too many family commitments with siblings who want to do Disney, and to fit everything in we need to drag a sister and her family down the same week as the meet-up. So we'll do WDWFG stuff when y'all are at WDW and family stuff while you cruise.
Tue, 05/19/2015 - 22:54
I think we will do a few days after the cruise! Can't wait for dates to open up! So excited this is finally happening!

So excited about this.
MrHub will need to start a thread on who is going in 2016 so we can start filling up October.

My boyfriend and I are going to try to do the Land portion, we are looking into October 20-27th.
Are those the dates you all are thinking for the land also?
Wed, 05/20/2015 - 22:52
I think most of us are planning some before and after days.
As a side note, we booked today too!

I'm looking to arrange a private dessert party,obviously it's so far away at the moment but tentatively looking at the 22nd so those who can't stay long after the cruise can join in

I'm afraid that if I join in the festivities, I'll do only the land meet. I have done that cruise a few times already and don't feel like doing it again.
So we are all set for 10/17/2016?

All set and booked for 17th Zz! Some people are doing land before and after, some only before or after but looks like most people are leaning towards land after the cruise

So should we tentatively plan for a land meet for 10/22, then? It gives us folks who are not planning on the cruise something to aim for.

I think that would be a good day to aim for, though there no saying we won't arrange a couple of other get togethers over the first 5 days or so after the cruise (or indeed another meet before the cruise!)

You had me at "dessert party" That date will hopefully work out perfect for us. We are in the land only meet up category and we would only be able to go to WDW on a weekend. So as long as my husband isn't on call that week, we'll definitely be there.
Fri, 05/29/2015 - 14:05
22nd works for me!!! I looked at prices for this year to see how much it would cost for just me and the LO to come down (DH has put his foot down for a 2016 trip) and it is definitely feasible for us to join everyone after the cruise. Hopefully prices will not go up too, too much next year.
