How fast does a Badger run anyway, just wondering. Maybe they should be the gazelles?

Hold em TCU

Good job to the both of you!

Dinner was not all that great. If I were Michael, I would have skipped it!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY FELLOW DVC FRIENDS.

ITS MILD HERE NO SNOW AND I DROVE AROUND WITH WINDOWS DOWN AND NO COAT

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERRIE

I WAS ALSO WONDERING IF ANY OF YOU WERE ON THE 2010 MEMBER CRUISE. IM WORKING ON SHADOW BOXES AND I DONT HAVE A GROUP SHOT ON THE BEACH OF THE CRUISERS. IVE FOUND MY 2007 8 and 9 BUT LOST 2010. IF ANYONE COULD POST IT ID LIKE DO DOWNLOAD IT. THANK YOU!!

HI IAN!!!!!! Haven't talked to you in forever! How are things up north? I'm pretty sure I have the group picture, but our printer took a dump and we're waiting for our new (wireless) printer to come in. As soon as it does, if nobody else has posted the picture for you, I'll post it.

Hi everyone! My name's Liza. I'm booked on the Member's Cruise. I can't wait. I already have a countdown ticker on my cell phone. I'm going with 3 of my goddaughters 5 and twin 10 year olds. The kids are all new at cruising. I'm just new to the Disney cruiseline. We're on the 7th floor but I don't remember our cabin # at the moment. I'm considering coming down the Friday before but am worried about getting to port. I like to get to port early and I hear the buses from the resorts leave later than the first buses from the airpot. Any suggestions from proir cruisers? Also this is a surprise for the girls. I can't wait to participate in the fish extender. Sounds fun. We're also doing back to back cruises. I booked us on the following 3 night dream cruise on the 22nd!

Liza!!!! If you have four people traveling to the port, it might just be cheaper to rent a car rather than pay the outrageous fee for the Disney bus. But, yes, I have heard that the busses from the resorts do get to the port somewhat late in the day. I don't know anything about the busses directly from the airport, though. Maybe one of the rental car companies or a limo service would be worth checking into. Just throwing some suggestions out there for ya.

Ribbit! Oops, did I just say that outloud???

Kneedeep! (that's what frogs say. And apparenterly that's what the Badgers fell into! It was a good game though!

Some Badgers run very fast so they can outrun the enemy, others run with power and just run over the enemy! However frogs can jump high enough to knock down Badger passes ...

Michael and Nancy, I am sorry your team was not victorious. I have no loyalties to either team, just kinda thought a badger against a frog was kinda funny when I visualized them playing football against each other. I guess the up side to that game would be no worries if the field was a bit soggy...

Too funny!

I was just browsing another thread (I know, I am sorry for not remaining monogamous) and the people were all in a tizzy because evidently the Magic and Dream met up for pictures outside of, cruised into, docked at, and then left Castaway Cay and potentially were meeting up again so that the cruisers on the Magic could watch the fireworks from the Dream for their Pirate Party.

Many people have seen or taken pictures or whatever but not posted them. Just a heads-up. I know OUR ship was due to be at CC today, Nassau tomorrow, CC again Monday and then Port Canaveral on Tues. I guess this means that we will have an abundance of photos soon.

I too was out surfing on other threads.
I guess that makes us sluts (not sure if I can say that here)

Sorry if I should hot have....anyway, I have made "friends" with a woman from the UK who is writing a trip report on her upcoming cruise on the Dream.
She will be on the inaugural cruise, so I am hoping to gain some info from her, that I of course will be passing on to others.

[lizanb]

Hi Karen! Love the board. Great info. Thanks to everyone.

We also booked back to back cruises. Member's first and then 3 more nights on the Dream sept 22nd to 25th. I sort of spoiled when it comes to longer cruises. I prefer 9+ nites. I wish Disney had more variety...so the back to back will have to do.

Enjoy your stay at OKW!!! That's our home resort. I can't wait to stay again in September after the cruise (hopefully in a refurbished room). You'll love all the space there! Can't wait to hear about your trip when you get back!

There are several of us doing a B2B with the Member's cruise being the second half. At least you'll have more time to figure out how you're going to organize and pack all the free gifts we get on the Member's cruise!

laura and i stayed in reburbed 1 bedroom in turtle pond area i think building 36. We think the blinds on the doors to the balcony wont last long. The plastic cords are very short and hard to get at, it takes forever to roll up blinds. We gave them our opinion, i think others may have suggested that to.
