10/17 Wonder -- Are you sailing with us?!?

[MickeyMagic]

My DD10 and I will be on the 10-17 cruise and at the Radisson the night before. We look forward to seeing SC Minnie & family again and would love to meet anyone else staying at the Radisson.

We'll also plan on joining the meet outside of ESPN before the sailaway party. Gosh, I'm getting butterflies just mentioning the sailaway part. It's so much fun beginning a new cruise!

It sounds like many of us are also going to Atlantis, so we might run into each other there, as well. A group picture at the Atlantis might be fun...

I've been away from the boards for a bit. I had jury duty last week. I didn't get assigned to a trial, but it sure put me behind at work so I've been busy catching up this week.

Keep counting down those days!!

 

[SC Minnie]

Welcome back MickeyMagic! I noticed you hadn't been on the boards in a while. I wasn't sure if this was the time for you trip out west.

We are at 12 weeks!!!

 

[SC Minnie]

Bumping this up.

Anyone else with us???

[SC Minnie]

Kris,

scduckman is my DH, Tom, I am Mona, and our DD8 is Catherine.

I am really looking forward to this trip- although it is going to be waaay to short.

I think there are quite a few others that are sailing with us. Hopefully they will join in soon.

I promise we don't bite!!!!

 

[pal2pluto]

thanks for the update, Mona

 

[MickeyMagic]

Hi all. Here's more details for us: MickeyMagic (Sue) and DD10 (Alysha)

 

[prymsu]

This is going to be a really neat treat for me and a friend. Sue and Pat will be joining you without husbands or kids!!!

 

[prymsu]

I just called DCL to check on my ressies, and for the 10/17 cruise, dining times remain at 6 and 8:30 p.m., but that is subject to change, and not set in stone. Just thought some of you might be wondering if the time changes were to be in affect for us or not...

 

[pal2pluto]

Thanks for the info Sue, and Sue...........

 

[albiats]

After a break from the boards to do several other things, I'm back on active duty and ready to report in.

My DW (Bonnie) and I will be on the 10/17 cruise, taking advantage of our $99 vouchers.

We are also bringing our DD and her family in another cabin (a very big distance from $99). My DD (Carie) and DSIL (hope that means son-in-law) will have our DGD10 (Emily) and DGD12 (Katie) with them. This will be their first cruise and they're getting very excited too.

We are in the early seating for dinner and will be driving to the Port the morning of the cruise.

We'll have green ribbons and will plan on meeting everyone near the ESPN Zone for the Sail Away Party.

 

[MickeyMagic]

Welcome back, albiats!!!

 

[albiats]

Thanks for the Welcome Back, nice to see you too.

Looking forward to the cruise coming up even though it's only a 3 day.

We have the Western Itinerary booked on the Magic for January again, looking forward to that one too.

See you soon!

 

[dbcruise]

Count us in me (Doreen) and 8 year old DD Kenya will be using $99.00 vouchers . I just wish I had more time to check these boards . See you all soon .

 

[Ashley24]

Hi! I just booked this cruise a couple days ago as a surprise for my dh! October 13th will be our 12th wedding anniversary and I think it's important to do a little trip each year (if possible) without the kiddos! Anyway, we would love to meet at the ESPN skybox during the sailaway party! Of course, I'm just speaking for my dh since he doesn't even know about the cruise yet . When do you think I should tell him? I was thinking about getting one of those countdown timers, wrapping it up, and giving it to him on our anniversary date, just a couple days before the cruise! Of course then I worry that something important might be going on at his workplace and he couldn't take off work for the cruise so I don't want to wait too long! Any suggestions???

[Ashley24]

By the way, my name is Ann (Ashley) and my dh is Cliff. We have sailed on the Wonder once with our two girls (4,7) this past April and LOVED it, even though dh didn't think he would! We have three more cruises already booked with the kids: January 2 on the Wonder, April 19 on the Magic (eastern), and Christmas 2003 (western) cruise with our extended family! I think we have become cruise fanatics! The DIS board has definately been a huge help in planning these trips! Sorry for rambling!

Nice group! Anyone else to add to the list so we can get familiar with names before we meet?

 

[SC Minnie]

Looks like we have the start of a fairly large group!

Anyone else staying at the Radisson the night before? Any excursions planned? We have booked the Comfort Suites for Atlantis.

 

[prymsu]

we have booked a room at Atlantis so we could use the pools and water slides. My generous friend is insisting on getting a room there, and paying for it, since she was able to get her cruise for $99.

We will be at HoJo by Discovery Cove the night before. I sure would love to get together with any of you staying at the Radisson in port, but that won't work for us.

I didn't realize there were going to be so many of us on this cruise. I am really starting to get excited for the date to get here.

 

[scduckman]

Prymsu, is your countdown clock on central time? Don't make me wait an extra hour!
