10/12/08-4 night Wonder anniversary cruise

[GOLDEN TINKERBELL]

Hi everyone.. We are back home in VA safe and sound.

What a great time we had. I am sorry I didn't get to meet everyone but it was great to meet all those who we did meet. I didn't do a real good job of keeping my trip report up to date but did get one more day added today and hope to do the rest in the next day or two. Will share the link to my pictures as soon as I have those as well but give me a few days, I need to weed through them all as I took over 1700

Hope everyone else is safe and sound in their homes now.

Hi there! We had a fantastic time and I can hardly believe its over. booo hooo! How did you enjoy the parks?
We made it home weeee hours Friday, 17th, (2:00 A.M.) and I did get up and go to work for 9:00 a.m. DH was really glad to see us. Told lhim we booked for next Oct..he is so excited. We were supposed to keep it a secret until Christmas, o well. Also, last night JC booked the same cruise for my parents. There maybe a whole gang of us going next year. Glad I had the weekend to relax a bit.

I am at work, must get to it...

WOW 1700 pictures I thought my 600 was a lot!
I'm sorry I had screwed up the time to meet up, I should have made it earlier and not just before the boat drill......SORRY!!!
I was happy to have met up with a few of you during the trip, I kept an eye out for a Steelers shirt but never did see one. I should have just yelled out anyone from DIS boards here?
We had the 5:45 dinner seating each night and started in Parrot Cay did anyone else have that sitting?

We pulled in the driveway at home around 3:30 on Sunday (just as the Vikings finished giving away another game ).

After debarkation we drove to WDW and spent a great (and exhausting!) 3 days in the parks.

A week ago at this time we were enjoying brunch at Palo!

Today; no ocean, no palm trees, no four course meals ... and we returned home to find that someone spread leaves all over our yard. Time to start working on my raking callouses!

It was really great to meet several of you! Definitely one of the highlights of the trip!

Is anyone doing a trip report? I'm going to give it a try. Feel free to correct me if I get anything wrong!

We just got back yesterday after following the cruise with 3 days in Disney. We had a great cruise and are looking forward to doing it again in October 2010!

I think i saw tears in DH eyes as we took off from Orlando!

I think i saw Steelernut on the first day! He had a Steelers shirt on, so i am pretty sure it was him and the family.

Well it is cold here in NJ and someone also spread leaves all over our lawn too!

Well you didn't keep that secret for long now did you LOL.. It was wonderful getting to know you both over dinner each evening. Hopefully we will run into each other on another cruise or in the park next year.

Isn't that what you did to me basically LOL... So glad we got to meet, if even for a short time. Hope your parents enjoyed the cruise.

We were on the same dinner rotation as you, Golden Tinkerbell and DS were our table mates. If you had yelled that we would have met even sooner LOL

Look who I found as we arrived at Castaway... Or should I say you found me LOL

Aloha Bob, Me, Manchurian and Laura

You had so many of the same experiences we did. We were in Palo when you were - we did the jet skiis while you were onthe glass bottom boats and we were in the Cadillac lounge that last night when we were really rockin! LOL Great trip report.

Missing my disney cruise!!!!!!!!!

 

[clj1410]

We have got the post cruise blues! But we have booked our next cruise for 2010, so we are already think about that! Two years seems so far away........

Go Phillies!

 

[Renysmom]

I can't believe it's been 2 weeks since we set sail. Thank goodness we sail in 370 days LOL

Hi all! We we are finally back from our vacation. My first cruise was great and we had so much fun. Sorry we didn't get the chance to meet any of you. I was looking but I didn't recognize anyone from the pictures on the forum. We are already thinking about booking our next cruise, but which one?

Hi, I too have those post cruise blues. But we've booked to 7 day Western on the Magic 2009.


Did you like the glass bottom boat tour?

 

[domesticspaz]

Cheermm! How odd we were in the same place at the same time so often!

We enjoyed the boat tour but then again, we didn't pay for it. My dad bought a certain number of tickets for it and we just happened to tag along. I really don't know how much it cost, but I wouldn't have paid very much for it. It was nice to see the island from a different angle, and the fish were neat to feed, but there honestly wasn't much to see in the glass bottom at all. The best part was listening to the boat operator talk and feeding the fish... but if you saw my picture you saw the best of it right there.

 

[Cheermm]

A great way to start a great day!

I hope the pictures I took for you turned out!

I just found you in one of my pictures. It was before boarding in the port! Just wish I'd realized who you were before getting home.

 

[manchurianbrownbear]

Is anyone else thinking, "one year ago right now...."

 

[alohabob]

WOW hard to believe it's been a year already, Monday we booked our next Disney Cruise for 2011, Alaska here we come August 30 the last sailing......maybe we can get some good bargains?

How have you been? I see your Vikings are doing well!

 

[Renysmom]

John and I were just talking about it being a year. Wow that was fast.

Good thing I leave on the Magic in 20 days otherwise I wouldn't be handling this very well.

How is everyone??
