I just checked accuweather.com and they have temps in the mid 70's for the first week of January- that's all good for me because we'll be in WDW from the 7th. Maybe that good weather will be carried on through!
 
karebear,
i didn't know you were doing the parks first. so are we. we arrive on the 8th. i'm right with you hoping the weather turns around!!

YEP! My DH and I are doing the Half marathon on Sunday and then spending the week with my DS and BIL and my Best Friend and her family. It will be 2 weeks of complete DISNEY BLISS! Isn't it just more fun then you can imagine??!?!?! We're staying at BCV's until Tuesday and then switching over to VWL until Saturday. Where are you staying?
 
I might be a little slow but what does VWL stand for. I know WL stands for Wilderness Lodge. What does the V stand for. Or do you mean to say Wilderness Lodge Villas.


I think I just figured it out all by myself.
 

Cindalu- DING DING DING.... You WIN!!!! It is Villas at Wilderness Lodge...... see... you are a pretty smart girl!
 
karebear,
thanks. I got a little bit of a laugh at the end of my work day.


Have a great night.

We are staying at the Holiday Inn Family Suites and doing Disney and Universal.

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Family Suite for two nights one year...The kids had a blast...
 
I'm glad to hear that Meshee. They are in the middle of a conversion to Nickolodeon Family Suites so we got what I hope is the best of both worlds; a low rate of $114 per night for a 2 bedroom kid's suite and kids eat free while we will be in the Jimmy Neutron suite and the Nick water park area is done (hopefully the weather will cooperate!). From what I hear, once the renovation is complete the rate will be going way up so I'm glad I booked when I did.

Just popping in to say hi to all of you cruising on Jan 15! I'll be there too! I can't believe I didn't find you guys a year ago when I booked. I went to join and realized I had actually joined back in 2002. lol! Well, better late than never, right?

I'm Jackie. I'll be sailing w/my dh and my 2 dd's, ages 6 and 8 (on Jan 15! and she really can't wait for her bday!). I am one of the folks cruising w/the Disney Dollarless group. It's been so much fun getting to know my fellow cruisers. It's going to be that much more fun for our family since we already feel like we know a bunch of folks on the ship! And now maybe I'll get to know a few more over here. :-)

We are arriving on the 14th and staying at the Radisson. I really wish I'd been here earlier this year, so I could have gotten a better rate. But it's ok...it's booked and I'm excited! We only have one excursion booked. We are going to do one of the submarine rides (not the really expensive 2 person one - the other one. lol!). We are not yet sure what all we'll be doing otherwise, but I've been put on notice that my 8yo does not plan to leave the kids clubs *at all*! lol!

We are also traveling w/my 82 yo mom. This will be her first cruise (it will be my family's 1st cruise also, my 2nd) and she's very excited. Of course, I neglected to make sure her paperwork was in order, so I'll be running around like a mad woman getting her birth cert and id card! Wish me luck! lol!

My expectation is that I will spend as much time as is humanly possible in the Spa. If anyone has any suggestions on what treatments to schedule, please let me know. And if you see someone sprinting to the spa immediately after boarding, more than likely it will be me! ;-)

I did take the time to read all the posts on this thread last night. I feel like I've gotten to know some of you. lol! Maybe I'll get to meet you all onboard! I can't believe it's almost here!!!!!

:-)

Jackie

(hmmm...after I posted I saw the date I joined - Jan 2001! wow! lol!)
 
Jackie- are you planning on coming to our meet on Sunday morning? And.... please tell us a little more about this Disney Dollarless group- how many of you etc.
 
Hi. I haven't thought about attending your meet, probably because I hadn't really thought of myself as part of the group yet. lol! I will check and see what we are doing and if I can come, I will! Thanks!

I'm not sure how many of us are booked w/the DisneyDollarless (now The Magic For Less) group. The group of us who have been chatting for the past year have about 17 rooms booked. It's been a lot of fun planning w/the other families. We have a whole itinerary of things we are hoping to do together. I love traveling w/friends, and going w/a group feels the same way. :-)

I just spent 15 mins trying to download a cruise calendar into my sig with no luck at all. If anyone would like to take pity on me and help me figure out how to do it, I'd appreciate it. The other thing I tried to do was get my name/email addy to show up when I added myself to the trip database. I see others have their info come up, and I'd like mine to come up too.

Thanks!!!

:-)

Jackie
 
Well- if you think you'll be able to make it, please let me know who will be there with you from your family so I can make a name tag for you. I've been working on them all morning and finally ahve found a design I really like!

Houzer...... don't know how I missed it, but I just read you got your meal timer changed from 8:30 to 6:00. Did you request early seating???? I wnat you at the 8:30 hour so we can have small food fights from across the room!
 
I'd love to come to the Sunday Morning meet, but if things go my way, I'll be at the Spa. Is there any way I can let you know on Sat, after I get my Spa ressies???
 
You can just show up if you'd like- but I won't have a name tag for you unless I know you will definetly be there because I'm making the naem tags at home on my computer
 
karebear1: Annie I have been on the wait list since we booked this cruise and we just all of a sudden saw that it was changed. Sorry no food fights this time but I am sure we can come up with another idea! :rolleyes1

Anyone get there doc's get?? I am worried I might have to sign for them here in Ontario, and we are leaving basically Christmas day and won't be back until the 3rd. I have the neighbour watching but I was hoping they'd come sooner then that. Has anyone called DCL to see if the Doc's have been sent out?

Pauline
 
I didn't call DCL but I asked Dreams Unlimited, that's who we booked through. They said anywhere from 2-6 weeks out. I was happy to hear that the docs don't go to Dreams first but come straight to us from DCL. I'm keeping my fingers crossed they'll be here for XMas but I'm not holding my breath!!
