[coastgirl]

Brack, thanks for all the photos, they're really exciting for someone like me who's never been...really give a sense of the detail. Was that the reindeer trolley early on?

or now?

 

[MrsMork]

I need to get us on another rhythm (sp) here because you are getting the EVENS and I am getting the ODDS!! ARGH

 

[brack]

I really thought that the 40 second rule was going to do me in tonight.

 

[MrsMork]

The rascals were letting us do all that work!! Great job, Brack!

 

[TheTXTaylors5]

Yes. The trolley from the ship to the main part of CC and the trolley from there to the adult beach are made up like Rudolf at Christmas.

 

[coastgirl]

hah! Well at least now there's a critical mass of folks around.

Now after the revelation that I will get "Christmas" on the cruise, what do you think, is there also a sense of Caribbean-ness? Wasn't really thinking we'd get much of that, but was listening to an old Soca CD this morning ("Carnival 96"); it'd be fun if we get some soca music and jerk chicken or something...

It'll be a Caribbean Christmas for sure!

My kids are going to lose their minds!

 

[MrsMork]

Yeah that's what we have started to do recently for our hotel. Disney could actually give us a cheaper AAA rate than AAA could. That makes no sense to me but I will continue to book through Disney...that is unless we go the DVC route!

- Bill

We rebook onboard for the discount and OB credit, then transfer to DU for more OB credit.

See, I'm not sure which Pooh_Girl and I are looking forward too the most: The cruise or our stay on property AFTER the cruise!! It's our first cruise and our first real vacation since our honeymoon in 2004, so we are doing this one BIG! We're going on a 7 day cruise and then going to the Contemporary with a MK view for 2 days afterwards. Just a special treat to each other.

We are doing 5 days before the cruise!!

They really do a great job of decorating Christmas on the cruise ...... hey it is Disney after all!

We try and arrive 1 day Prior to the cruise and leave 1 day after the cruise. So Saturday after the cruise, we will be in MK and probably park Hopping if I know DH

We're doing two before and are wait listed for the AKL. We'll have to meet up for coffee ...... or a ride on Soarin'

The party tonight was awesome! I guess usually the Military Committee Members' parties are pretty uptight and stuffy. The Deputy Chairman of the Military Committee is an American 3-star. He and his wife threw a down home type of barbecue. Everyone came in cowboy attire and really cut loose.

They loved the line dancing and caught on really quickly. Everyone was relaxed and having a great time. Now it's kind of hitting me that I just taught line dancing to the representatives of NATO's highest military committee. Kinda weird!

Awesome !! Sounds Fun.. Glad you had a Good time and Now I can go to sleep tonight safe and secure knowing, that NATO's highest military committee are Trained in Line Dancing.

Hey, Ya' never know when THAT may come in handy
