Oh, I will gladly share. Hopefully, Disney won't run out of margarita mix. And, if they do, we will just pick something else to drink.

I'm getting so excited about this cruise. I booked May 2005. I've already waited an entire year. I'm not sure I can wait three more months.

floating around on the boards somewhere for the Kooler.... lemme' see if I can find it...

 

[JOANNEL]

I have made them before. I am not sure of the exact measurements.
Light & dark rum, 1/2 can Pina Colada, 1/2 can passion fruit and some orange juice and ice. I think that's it. It was good, not as good as the bar on the adult beach. I wish I was going this week end.

My neighbor and I joined high energy weight loss today. By Sept 16th we should be 50 lbs lighter. Wish us luck. The only bad part is no alcohol how can i go the whole summer with out a frozen anything.

Have a good friday.

What is high energy weight loss? I want to lose 40 lbs by our cruise date. I joined Weight Watchers and lost 5.2 lbs the first week and 2 lbs the second week, but the weight loss on this program is so slow. Some of my friends who have been going for a while have now dropped down to where they are only losing like 2/10 and 6/10 of a pound each week. I know I won't make my goal on WW.

Amanda and I had a fantastic drink on our last cruise together, a Mango Margarita. It was like liquid candy! I am really looking forward to another one of those!

 

[seashells]

I had my first mango margarita at a mexican restaurant a few weeks ago and "liquid candy" is the perfect description!!!!

My friends tried the guava and coconut, the coconut was heavenly.

The konk kooler sounds great too...passion fruit...yum yum!!!

It's like Jenny Craig, LA weight loss. We have so many replacement meals and regular meals a day. I really needed some one to be accountable to. We have to weigh in twice a week. For the first two weeks it's call pre-diet. You have three nornal meals and three meal replacements. they want you eating small portions every three hours. The next five weeks it 's five meal replacements and one normal meal. So far I have only had a vanilla shake.It's not bad. I hope this works.

have a great memorial day weekend. There are too amny tourists in town so I doubt we will do much. The beaches are also having a seaweed problem so it's kind of stinky out there.

Am I understanding this right. Do you drink five shakes a day and only eat one meal? When you say regular meal, exactly what do you get to eat. I'm assuming that they have some limits on what it can be.

 

[JOANNEL]

Yes, the one meal is limited,I have't read the whole thing yet, but it's 5 oz of meat, 4 oz of veggies and a little carbs. Then the replacement meals are either shakes, a bar or they even have samll ready made meals. I will let you know how it goes.

 

[ericamanda01]

I just got off the phone with Amanda and she sounds like she's having a blast! She is losing her voice from a little bit of a cold, but she is a trooper so I am sure she will suffer through the cruise. I told her that we expect a cruise report to which she just laughed and reminded me that she doesn't do those. Neither do I but I told her that we do expect lots of pictures! I hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend!

 

[JOANNEL]

I can't wait to hear from them. I hope they all post. I would love to hear about all the Coata Maya excursions.

Happy Memorial day..............

Hi, we have a party of 5 sailing 9/16/06 (me, my husband & our son along with my parents) our countdown began months ago ... what to take, what we need to start buying to take, can't wait until I can start packing!!!!!!! This will be our 2nd cruise with Disney ... our 1st cruise was a 4 night in Nov 2004 ... we had a blast!!!!!! the water was a bit cold but besides that, we found Castaway Cay to be EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is why we picked this cruise since it went there twice!!!!! We figured that Sept would have warmer weather....... so we can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ragdoll]

Hi dznynut2, DH and I have been cruising DCL every Sept. for the past five years. It is a great time to cruise! We love CC. Just hoping that we avoid hurricanes and actually make it there twice. I am a DCL addict. We have been doing two DCL cruises a year. After we return from one cruise I begin to obsess about the next one. I am so glad that I am a SAHGrandma. I could never concentrate on work or homework or tests. Good luck to those who are finishing up school!

My cousin and her husband are joining us on this cruise. We also just invited our adult son along. Looks like he will be able to come too. Can't wait!

Did you guys read that there aren't Double Dip pins (sniff) but the embarkation photo has a border that says "2x's the Magic" So, I think I'll have to whip up a couple of t-shirts for us that say something along those lines......Personally, I like "Double Scoop" better, guess the powers that be didn't have ice cream on the brain when they came up with 2x's the Magic....

I know we have bracelets and pins...are we doing t-shirts or bags? It would be easier to see everyone if we all had the same (color) shirt....I don't know if I'll be able to catch bracelets I doubt you all will miss our party {we'll be the ones causing all the trouble} but it might good on embarkation day if we're easy to spot.

Did we agree on a meeting onboard? Are we bringing regional treats? I am all onboard for a wine party... Man, I can't believe we're only three months away! School's out in two weeks then there's all the summer campouts and activities and when will I ever have time to shop and pack?

 

[JOANNEL]

Hi all,

Just got back from Tallahassee, my baby is now officially a college freshman at FSU. Spent two long days at freshman orientation. He is so excited I am thrilled for him.

The 5/27ers sound like they are having a great time. I hope they do trip reports on their excursions. has any one here made any decisions? Our 90 day mark is coming upon us.

Welcome aboard diznut & ragdoll.

Wine party sounds good to me. We don't have anything regional from here, but we will bring something.

Have a good Thursday.......................

 

[JOANNEL]

happy week end every one.........................

 

[ragdoll]

Sure was fun reading the live report from the first Double Dip this week. Makes me all the more anxious for our turn even though we just returned from the Eastern two weeks ago. Oh well, I really don't want to wish the summer away. We wait too long for summer to come and after our 9/16 cruise it will be almost time for winter again.
