On the Good Ship Swanky

That's why this is going to be an adventure!! It will be interesting to see how it all works out. Supposedly, they're going to add some regional stuff to the dining menus, and also have some new "surprises" to keep people entertained on the repo cruises.

Last year, we hit some rough water during our last sea day coming back into Los Angeles. The storm was horrible. The speaker/light posts on deck 10 were literally bending almost 30 degrees from the winds, and we got seriously blown around even on deck 9. For kicks, we attempted to play foosball, and the wind took the ball right out of the box, sending it flying across to the other side of the deck. It was quite impressive. Everything rattled something fierce for hours, and the waves were definitely felt while trying to sleep that night. Although, it rocked me to sleep pretty quick. But, still, it was like laying on a rollercoaster for a bit. Definitely not a trip for people who get seasick.

Well, if you're doing it keep an eye out for future discounting. Disney will match the lowest offered price for people who have already booked but you have to ask, they don't do it automatically.

The travel agent I spoke with is expecting that Disney will have to do quite a bit of discounting on the repos at least. Almost everybody who had expressed interest to hiim in the repo cruises dropped out when they saw the combination of price and itinerary. Most aren't even willing to do the Mediterranean cruises at the prices offered.
