I didn't think I was going to be able to do a trip report but we will see how far I get. 
Cast is Me- Mona, DH-Tom, and DD8-Catherine.
We sailed on the $99 voucher we received for sailing in January. Stayed at the Radisson the night before using the $59 FALL code we heard about from these boards . The earliest time they had available for the shuttle was 10:40 so we put our name on the list. We check in then went over the Kelsey's for dinner. We had the pizza which was very good. It is just across the parking lot. Met up with MickeyMagic and her DD around 6:00 and the girls swam and had a great time. They found a coconut around the pool and the two girls using rocks were able to get the coconut open. We stayed at the pool until around 10:30.
We get up and walk over to Zachary's for breakfast. It was very good and I would highly recommend. We decided to see if we could get on the earlier shuttle so we went out from with our luggage around 10:15 and was able to get on. The shuttle ride was about 5 minutes long. In the parking lot where we were dropped off a porter took our bags. We walked across the street to the port and were one of the first ones there. Check in was a breeze. The girls went to get in line so they could be the first ones. We tried to find Joe to get the Wonder trading cards. Couldn't find Joe but another CM went in search of cards for us. The terminal did not start to fill up until about 11:30. This seemed rather odd to us. We met prymsu and her friend and icevinson while in line- thanks to the lime green ribbon. We were looking forward to being the coutndown family but they didn't do that.
We started boarding around noon. Then went straight to Beach Blanket for the buffet. While eating we noticed another lime green ribbon it was Ashley24!
After lunch we went to the room to drop our bags. Our Castaway Club towel and pins were already there. I had ordered baskets from Shirley but there weren't there yet. Next was off to the Goofy pool. The girls (our DD and MickeyMagic's DD) were one of the first in the water. I sent DH to the room later to check if the bags were there. They weren't but the baskets were! I had not told DH and DD that I had ordered them so he was surprised. He came back to the pool and we made up some excuse to get DD to the room. The baskets were great Shirley and her crew did an excellant job. A little later we headed over to Coach's room for a mini DIS meet. Coach was upgraded to a Cat2 and had invited all us DIS'ers to see. We met some other DISer's then headed back to deck 9 for the sailaway party. The girls had fun dancing.
We didn't go to Hercules so we unpacked and showered for dinner. On the way to dinner we see them taking pictures with Donald(DH's favorite) and Daisy in front of the picture of the ship. Our tablemates were MickeyMagic and DD, prymsu and friend. We had a Claire and Anthony as our server team.
After dinner DH and I went to Barrel of Laughs for a little while then to Waverbands while DD was in the lab. It was 70's night and the we had a lot of fun.
Tomorrow is Nassau and Atlantis!
