January 4, 2014 Fantasy, Trust, and Pixie Dust!

[luv2sleep]

I'm thinking about seeing the space center when we go back Dec 2014. My son will be a little older and hopefully interested. I've always wanted to go!

Is the FB group very active? I don't ever get any notifications from it.

We have finally picked a cruise and are in! 8023 for us 4 crazies after 7 nights at SSR

Any other So Cal Cruisers out there?

 

[homeboycartel]

My vacation request has been approved! Yay! Now I just need to pay the cruise balance and get park tickets. Anyone considering the Premier pass? I'm pondering.

We have Deluxe DL passes and are probably upgrading to premieres when we are in WDW 12/28-1/4!!!

 

[Disneylandfanatic]

Welcome Homeboycartel!

We are from Norcal...we have premium passes, but will not be getting premiers, I crunched the numbers and for us it would not be worth it

We are also on Deck 8!

If you are interested: we have a facebook group! I believe the link is on the first page of the thread

we have a fish extender group started on there...I am also attaching the info in my next post.

 

[Disneylandfanatic]

So far here is who is signed up for the fish extender, it is currently a document on Facebook...if anyone would like to be added, please either join the facebook group, or post the information here for me to add the facebook list. All information will be finalized and posted both on facebook and the dis so everyone can participate!

Please post the information below in the following format (once we are closer to the cruise, I will input the information into an excel file as the final copy for everyone to use while onboard). Please edit/make changes to anything you think of!

This will be a general FE, please no homemade food items. After the final sheet is complete a final excel sheet will be sent out and distribution will be up to everyone on when they want to hand out their gifts. (Please add any other rules that you think of). I will make a last call on the disboard as well as on the facebook page for all final changes/sign ups prior to creating the final copy.

WOW I've not been on in quite some time! to all the new cruisers!

homeboycartel, you're just down the hall from us! We're in 8014 & 16.

We've made a few WDW dining reservations post cruise and still pondering what excursions to do at each port. So many decisions

 

[luv2sleep]

Starting to pay it off! Made a payment today and set up a payment schedule for myself. Should be paid in full by Sept 27th so that I am ready for online check in at midnight (Oct 5th at 9pm my time) on October 6th. I am only concerned about excursions at this point. I'd love to go to Palo brunch but I don't think there are any other single parents on this cruise meet to dine with unfortunately. Oh well. That's ok. Another time.

I just put myself on a wait list for DVC Villas at Wilderness Lodge points. Exciting but nerve wracking. I've had to make some financial changes so I canceled our Aug 2004 Alaskan cruise and used my on board booking benefits for Christmas 2014. I may or may not rebook that Alaskan cruise with OBB benefits when we cruise. I am definitely booking a dummy date. I also canceled my 2 night to nowhere leaving out of San Diego. So, just 2 cruises and a DLR stay so far. That's more than enough!

We are headed to the Grand Californian for fall break in October! Looking forward to that. I've never stayed there before.

Anyone have other Disney vacations on the horizon after our Jan cruise?

Hi! How's everybody? I'm down here in Central Illinois trying to figure out if I like it and want to stay, or flee back to the Chicago area! Meanwhile been paying off the cruise bit by bit with Disney Gift cards from Target combining my 5% red card with 5% pharmacy cards. I am going up to Chi-land tomorrow and hope to get some more. My check-in as gold CC is 9/21 and I plan to be paid up by then.

Heading to Boston for a reunion next weekend, then CT for a wedding in Oct and hope to squeeze in Food and Wine at Epcot end of Oct or Nov. Then our cruise!!! Other than that in 2014 i: usually get to WDW for Flower and Garden in late April and we are booked on the Southern Caribbean 9/20! I generally get to WDW 3-4 times a year - hey, my daughter works there - got to see my baby!

Luv2 - there may be others brunching that you can join. I am not sure if I am going to do Palo or Remy or both but I will let you know if I do. If you don't get Wilderness Lodge where will you stay?

I am totally lost about excursions. I need inspiration!

If you'd like to do brunch let me know!

We are staying at Saratoga Springs. I already have a reservation. No way I'd get Wilderness Lodge that time of year at less than 11 mos out.

I have a few DLR trips planned... I leave for D23 this week! And then a Halloween trip planned for October, both in the Disneyland hotel. I also want a Christmas trip to see the new holiday WOC! Can't believe it is already August!!! Our trip is really right around the corner.

The holiday WOC is new this year? We saw it 2 years ago at Christmas. Do they change it every year?

 

[luv2sleep]

Come to think of it I probably won't see it then anyway. It was too cold

 

[Disneylandfanatic]

This year it is going to be a whole new show... Previous years it has just been the pre show but now rather than the normal woc it will be a holiday version!!!

Weird. We had a holiday version and no pre show. I wonder what will be different. Will look it up and see if it will be worth it. Thanks!

Due to a conflict in the kid's college calendar, we have to switch cruises. Sorry we won't be able to sail with you.

Sad to see you go, but glad you have an alternate cruise
