That picture is adorable. I love the sign. Did the Island have a ton of damage while you were visiting it ?????

Thanks, she is a doll...

There was some damage we were there right after a hurricane, we were supposed to go to Cayman, Cozmel and Castaway - but that was the year Cayman was pretty destroyed so we went to Costa Maya, Cozmel and Castaway. We really didn't feel any bad weather on the ship until the day we were at Castaway that day it was raining sideways - we able to get some snokeling in then lunch - then back on the ship- later that day the sun came out so we went back to the beach for a little while. I am hoping this trip will be sunny when we get to castaway.

My DH took that a couple of years ago post surgery and it made him feel - not nice...

It really is giving me an upset stomach... I guess it is a good weight loss program..LOL!!!!!! I ate nothing but a few crackers and a cookie all day yesterday..............

Denise,

That is too bad that your day at CC was not the best weather. We almost did not go but ended up going but our last night on the ship it was really rockin.......

I see your going on the Adventures by Disney~~Your going to Love Ireland have you ever been before ?????????

Karen,

Sorry, forgot to ask how are you feeling today????

Kristin,

Friday night was also pretty rockin for us, we had dinner resv at Palo and that was the first time I have ever had the least little bit of seasickness...the server was really cool, and kept giving me sprite - after awhile I started to feel better...I am hoping both Castaway and Palo will turn out better this time.

We have never been to Ireland and this will be the first Disney Adv will have been on. From all of the reveiws it should be wonderful...it is pretty pricey so it took us awhile to finally decide to go..We really wanted to go with a group so I wouldn't have to worry about what to do or where to stay etc.

The only place we have been to in Europe is Italy and that was in 97.

Denise,

Our last night on the ship things were really rockin for us. It was scarey. 15-18 foot high seas.....A lot of people were getting sick and scared. The kids did not even notice.

We went to Ireland with friends who had family who still lived there,. The Aveture trips are pricey but from what I hear they are well worth it etc.. I mean it is Disney after all right?? My parents are doing the west one that includes Grand Canyon etc.. and Sedona Arizona, ( I think). I want to do the Italy one when the twins get a bit older...........How was Italy ???????????? How old was your daughter when you took her ???????????

Now that I have figured out how to post pictures here's a couple of Elin...I also have no idea on how to make this smaller.

Beautiful girl!!!

..I am hoping this trip will be sunny when we get to castaway...

I'm sure it will be gorgeous...

 

[allforpooh]

Italy was wonderful, we went to Rome, Florence, Parma and Milan - we were looking at the Italy Adv for Roma and La Costa Bella, but Ireland won out (I want to stay in a Castle)...DD did not go with us to Italy it was thru DH work (Bean Shippers ***.- he was a farmer then). He had 1 day of meetings and 7 days of fun.

We are going to go back to Italy just not sure when, my Great Grandparents are from a small town near Naples and I would love to go there.

Elin is really petite - 4 10 - 85lbs - it drives her crazy...everyone thinks shes alot younger than she really is.

Sounds wonderful... One of my fave ABDs is the Costa Bella one - we really should think about that as it would mean no overly expensive airfare for us...

I have been following some of the threads on the Adv board and everyone seems to think it is worth the expense. I can't wait - 09 is going to be a very busy year. We are trying to decide if we should tack on some extra days and go to London first...

And then add another couple of days and take the Eurostar from London to Paris.. Trouble is, I guess it could be neverending... Good fun tho'!!
