Chrisse......why 7 more posts? What am I missing?
Our fam will be part of the 10am crew as well.....planning to drop the rental car off at Avis before 9am and be on their next shuttle to the port....we'll be standing outside with all of our bags if all works out!
Kaj.....the CI&S has that shuttle to the port- but man, unless you're an early check-in and get your name on the list for the first shuttle, it could take you awhile to get there. And I almost got into it with a lady last time who wanted me to put DS 3 (at the time) in my lap without a seatbelt so they could fit more people in. Not when I paid $10 for him to have a seat! Grrr....I know that maybe it may have been the nice thing to do....but I am a REAL stickler about seat belts. Can't imagine a quicker way to ruin a cruise that if that shuttle had been in an accident and my DS went flying. AHHH!!! Now of course, mind you......our rental car shuttle probably won't have seat belts.....but he's 6 now, and good heavens, if they're available and I paid for the seatbelt....I want the seatbelt. OK, now that you're all sufficiently terrified of me, I'll get off my safety patrol soapbox.
We too, are staying at the CI&S.....but I just couldn't do that shuttle again.
Lynn....I will look for both you and Kelli in the terminal with your family's matching shirts- both blue, but different! I'll be wearing a green and gray striped cartigan with a jean skirt. My youngest will be wearing a bright green polo shirt. I sure HOPE we won't be wearing any jackets!?!? Have you seen the weather report??? Showers and 64? Man oh man, if the Sail Away is in the lobby.....I will be so sad! I am SO looking forward to getting a video of the horn sounding to post on my Facebook- no kidding!!
FabFivePA- PILLOW PETS?!? Man, you are way nicer than me!
You go, Mom!! My kids, though, each bring a blanket and two stuffed animals.....so what's the difference?
I did eliminate one bag last night by changing one of the DS suitcases into a "just in case" rolling carry on instead of actually having a separate one for that. But Lord knows, that once again, I will scramble on the last night wondering where to put all of the crap I bought b/c I crammed too much into too few bags..... (Uh em.....we still have 5 bags and 4 backpacks.) My son's 9th birthday is on Saturday, so I have a bunch for that----and I didn't even do FEs!!! (Sorry, folks. I'm a loser!)
FOUR MORE HOURS and we're headed to the airport!!!! I cannot stand it!!
