That is ok you are not a Disney nut and have no desire to be. But, you never know, it might happen one day. At least you get to spend time with your sister at a wonderful and magical palce.

Hello everyone

Thank you so much for the birthday wishes. I had a great day.

FYI...Southwest Airlines has opened the September time frame for airline reservations. Michael booked our flights this afternoon.

Michael and I are going to be grandparents...our granddaughter is due anytime now. We are thrilled and can't wait.

Enjoying the spring temperatures. Winter is done and gone...thank goodness.

All is well here in Southern Delaware.

Have a great day.

Glad you had a great birthday. Congratulations! Let us know when your granddaughter is born.

Jenny - I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm sure you provided her with a wonderful home, and hopefully you'll find comfort in knowing she's no longer suffering. We had a beagle/fox hound mix and we lost him suddenly after only a few years....so I understand how you are feeling.

Debbie - Congrats on earning a and .

Thank you!!

Jenny, I am so sorry for your loss I don't know if you are familiar with the Rainbow Bridge. It is said, that is where our beloved pets are waiting for us whne they leave this world. In the show dog community when we lose one of our own we always say they have gone to the Rainbow Bridge. I found a site that has the story of the Rainbow Bridge set to music. I hope it offers some comfort to you at this time.

Hello everyone! It has been a while since I have been on since we were at WDW all last week. Thanks Ian for posting our picture. It was a fun time to meet up and visit at EPCOT Monday afternoon.

I would like to wish everyone who had a birthday or anniversary a happy belated one while we were gone.

Also, Jenny, so sorry about your dog. I just love dogs and it is always sad when you lose one. Good thoughts are being sent your way.

Monika - Congrats on being a grandma soon!

Luckymom - Glad to hear you got the job at the Disney Store. Hope it is as fun a job as we all think it would be. Let us know.

Have a great day!

Could someone please post the times the ship is leaving and arriving back? I am looking all over for them and can't seem to find any of it.

Could someone please post the times the ship is leaving and arriving back? I am looking all over for them and can't seem to find any of it.

The ship leaves Port Canveral at around 5:00 on Sunday. I believe it gets back into Port Canaveral VERY early on Thursday morning around 5:00 am - someone please correct me if I'm wrong...I've never actually been up that early on the last day of the cruise. Actually, I've never been up that early on ANY day of ANY cruise!

Boarding time begins on Sunday at around noon (if I remember correctly), and on Thursday morning, I think they like all passengers to be off the ship by 9:30 am.

Hope this was the info you were looking for.

Whew! Thank You. Yes that is what I was looking for...I bought my plane tickets yesterday and then this morning my mom asked me if I looked at the time the ship was leaving and coming back. Silly me assumed it would be close to the last times I was on the ship. Put it looks like I still did okay....We are getting there Sunday early in the morning and leaving early afternoon on Thursday so we will be okay and have plenty of time to bum around.

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Are you flying Southwest?

 

[STLDisney_Freak]

Are you flying Southwest?

Yes.

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Did you check how much the airfare is today on the flights you booked? I looked at the same flights today that we booked yesterday and they almost DOUBLED!!!! I'm sooooo glad I was able to book yesterday when they first opened up!! WHEW!!

 

[BigDogHU75]

Hi All! Hope everyone is having a good day. It was a busy one for me. I am so glad to be home. I just want to put my feet up and relax but I can't do that just yet. I have to get DS ready for bed.

Chris, welcome back. How was your trip? Please post some pictures when you get a chance.

Good Morning -

Marsha - Trip was pretty good. Crowds were terrible though. Never been down there when they have been so bad. Next year will be our last time to go down at Spring Break time again. And we are only going next year because the girls are going on a school music trip down there and we want to go see them perform.

Plus, the weather was pretty cool. In the past it has always been sunny and warm, this year it was cool and cloudy. But, we still got a little bit of sun and hot tub time.

Seems like everyone is getting their plans put into place for September. Is it time to go yet???????

 

[dopeygirl76]

Hi all - I have been busy and work and come back to craziness!!! Of course I checked SW flights Tues AM and they were not realeased yet only to get on here this AM to find they were open - we got a 9am flight out of Pittsburgh on the 12th which is good - our alternative was Aitran at 11:20a and I didn't want to leave that late - still the flight was $124 per person!! We usually get $79 - 89!! Oh well I saved a lot on our return flight on a credit from AirTran - which we will not fly again because of the ever changing flight times!!!!

vedlin71 - I am so sorry for your loss - our dog is our first child and as he gets older (he will be 9 April 4th) I know the day will come when I will ahve to say goodbye but even knowing they are in a better place does not stop the hurt of losing a loyal friend.

Hope everyone has a great day. I am beginning to pack for our trip - I know - I'm carzy but if I don't do it early I stress about forgetting something. My Grandma is coming Sat and we are having a pre trip meeting!! They all think I've lost it but I don't care!!!

I LOOKED LAST NIGHT SOUTHWEST HAD A COUPLE FLIGHTS FROM BUF TO MCI IN SEPT FOR 69 DOLLARS BUT GOING DOWN WE WOULD BE FLYING sept 11 AND COME BACK the MON AFTER. WHICH IS OK WITH ME. SO HOPEFULLY ONCE DW GETS HOME FROM NIGHT SHIFT AT HOSPITAL WE CAN BOOK. WE PREFER JET BLUE OVER SOUTHWEST BUT JET BLUE FLIGHT JUST A LITTLE MORE MONEY.

 

[tgj]

Am I glad you guys mentioned airfare and that SW opened up dates in Sept. We were looking at AirTran which has good prices, but charges for bags - not to mention that they've changed our flight times THREE times for an upcoming trip....

So we booked on SW, which just last year started flying out of Milwaukee. It will be our first time on them, but we've heard good things. DW is THRILLED that she can bring TWO bags of luggage on this trip! If only they had a Formal Night on the cruise - now I have room for my tuxedo....!!!

Have a great day everyone!
