Mary and all thank you.

> Good morning all:
> Wednesday, I had one of my travel agent association meetings, and we had a
> trade show with a number of the representatives here on Long Island that
> serves the travel agents here.  This is a good reason to join some of these
> organizations once you decide to become a travel agent.
> You come face to face with the suppliers, and not just e-mails and on the
> phone. They start to know who you are as well.
> Anyway, since we are being Disney Fans, and I will be posting as well about
> some suppliers that are new to myself, since there are many suppliers for
> where ever in the world you want to go to.
> But Wednesday night was for the Cruise Lines, in February it will be our
> suppliers for Italy. Yummy yummy, can't wait to see what they have for
> dinner for us.
> Anyway,  the Disney Rep, who does  everything with Disney and not just the
> cruise lines, which by the way I am a college of knowledge graduate, which
> is a certificate course Disney offers its travel agents, to learn all the
> products.  I have a Mickey Ears Cap with Tassels on my desk, and all the
> certificates on my wall.
> Nelson, gets all misty eyed when I work so hard to get these.
> Anyway, getting back to Disney Cruise Lines.
> 1.  The Brand New Disney Fantasy will be arriving in the US on schedule to
> Arrive first in NY for one day, unfortunately, I will not be able to go on
> her, only because our rep had a limited amount of tickets, like 5, got to
> remember there are many travel partners out there, but I am hoping that
> Nelson will take me into the city, to take a look at her and take pictures.
> With the new Disney Fantasy, with every paying guest, you also get one
> ticket to Walt Disney World included with this, so you have an excursion to
> Walt Disney World already in the price for you.
> She is the sister ship to the Disney Dream, that was christened last year,
> and the god mother of that ship is Jennifer Hudson, each ship has a god
> mother, Norwegian Epic is Reba McEntire, etc. Here is information from the
> Disney website.
>  A pool deck bar has been replaced by the AquaLab, an interactive splash
> park that squirts or drenches kids. There are two, 10-foot-long "leaky
> walls"; as a kid covers the water squirting from one hole, another gushes. .
> The bars in the adults-only lounge area, Europa, will be set up in a
> hub-and-spoke fashion. At the center will be a circular entry bar whose
> lighting will evoke a carousel's motion. The four themed bars will be
> slightly larger than the bars in the District, the adults' entertainment
> area on the Dream. . In the Animator's Palate dining room, diners will be
> given placemats bearing the outline of a human figure. Each diner creates a
> sketch within this outline. The placemats are collected and scanned, and a
> computer places three of the figures in a clever animation that matches them
> to Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Pinocchio and others. In unison, they march
> and dance on the dining room monitors. Each of the nine dining room areas
> sees only the amateur sketches created by its diners. 
> The theme of this is that they have Dumbo as the mascot, and they have a
> huge one on the ship.  They Also have Aquaduck, which is a enclosed
> waterslide.
> 2.  The Disney Magic is heading to NY, starting in May 2012 right now
> through September 2012, no word yet on keeping her up here longer but they
> are working on it, offering 2 night cruises, 5 and 8 day cruises, and they
> are almost all sold out.
> New York is becoming a big deal for cruising, the cruise lines are taking
> note of the economy and the airline industry as well.  Also, where else can
> you sail out of the best city in the World, sail past the Statue of Liberty
> and Ellis Island, and see the sunset when sailing away or when arriving back
> into New York City, see that famous skyline.
> We will keep you up to date on these and more.
> Should you want a DVD or a brochure on these cruises or on Walt Disney
> World, just let me know and it will be in the mail to you.
> Have a great day
