09/18/11 - DVCers Take Over the Dream (S.S. Member Cruise 2011) - Thread #3

[lpotter]

Hi everyone!!

I posted previously about arranging a Meet for us at the Chicago Doorway to Dreams, for anyone local or anyone who is interested in traveling. At this point it looks like it may have to be after the holidays, not sure though. I will be heading up there November 21 for a DVC event, and I will make some plans then to finalize the Meet.

I will keep you all posted on the plans for that one. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

That sounds like fun Carol.. After the holidays would probably be best..Lots to do between now and then.. Not to mention..23 days until WDW!!!

We got snow flurries last night at 5:00, but the accumulation of snow happened somewhere between midnight and 3:00 am. TWO INCHES!





At least you don't have TWO INCHES of snow!!!!! [/QUOTE]

2 inches EEK!!!!! That is downright icky! We finished winterizing our boat today and put it into storage... Sad Day.

We just returned from our first ever cruise. It was the October 28 three day cruise. We had a great time! When we returned home there was a message from Disney to call member services about the member cruise. Our wait list came through!

We are officially booked on the 2011 Member Cruise. We have been DVC members since 1992 and we are just as excited about this cruise as the first time "home" at OKW 18 years ago. How great is a club that keeps you so excited for so many years, and I think that the best is yet to come.

Our stateroom is a veranda room on deck 10.

I look forward to getting acquainted via the DIS board and meeting as many folks as possible on the ship. It will just be my wife and I, two 56 year old Disney kids looking to have a fun time.

That's all for now

Dan, it was great meeting you and Sue. Sorry I didn't wake up to get to the craziness at DTD, but I rarely get to sleep in, I had to take advantage of it.

Also, I'm not sure how you got down here, but you brought the "nice" weather down here with you when you left; can you please send it back...it's TOO COLD NOW

No prob. Glad you were able to sleep enough!

I think it was somebody else on that flight. I like warm weather. LOTS!

Sometimes the best laid plans go awry and life will hand you some lemons We had booked Party for the Senses and upgraded to the wine view lounge for two some time ago. The Darwin award winner that did our reservation apparently was too busy trying to claw her way from the bottom of the evolutionary chain, to no avail When we went to check in, our reservations were for 4 party for the senses and no wine view lounge There was no way to get us in to the wine view lounge as it had been booked solid. We were disappointed to say the least. We decided not to go at all and get a refund for all 4 reservations. The cast member was nice and even offered to refund everything and still let us come in but we declined. We wound up going to Tutto Italia, since we've never dined there and it was booked solid. However, if we opted to eat outside they could seat us. We braved the cold and had a wonderful meal. I discovered a red wine I liked and we had excellent service Once the red wine (and Wally's hot tea) wore off we were freezing so we headed to Norway, picked up some gloves and fur lined hats that cover your ears and we were good to go! So, we made lemonade out of our lemons. We will try for Party for the Senses and wine view lounge again next year. Hopefully the person manning the reservations is not still stuck in the Cretaceous period

LOL Not sure what's on the agenda for tomorrow but if we don't have to head back right away we can probably pop over to Epcot and meet up. I'll text you and Sue tomorrow!
