Hi there! My husband and I will be on this cruise. We are new to DVC (November 2008) but not to Castaway Club (since Honeymoon 1999). I know it's too late to join B.O.B., but I just wanted to say "Hi!" and that I hope to meet some of you! We will be celebrating our 10th anniversary on November 6 with the cruise and a week at our home resort, BLT! So excited, I'm about to burst! Think I'll go start packing now!:dance3:

"protecting his steel"

Are we having a fanny pack moment here?......:rolleyes 1


Did Megan catch the Derby game last weekend:scared1: Anymore games like that and am goner start watching American football or Crown green bowling.....:rolleyes1
 
Now that Docs have gone out, It's doubtful that Disney will do much re-arranging of the rooms until sail date. Really not much has changed. There continues to be a lot of availability for our cruise. Cats 7 and 12 are GTY and there are 3 total rooms available in Cat's 5 and 6. Otherwise everything is wide open. Still tons of room in the Cat 4's for last minute upgraders.

Good to know all that!! I'm hoping for some pixie dust magic at the port (to go from a 6 to a 4....) :cutie::cheer2:
 
Well, I've got to get moving. Y'all have a great day! High school football tonight--Go Warriors!

We do not talk to her when the games are on. She can be a little high strung.:scared1: Between ManU and the Yankees she is having a rough season. :lmao::rotfl2:
 
Ok - all caught up!

Yucky rainy day here in Virginia (finally caught up with us!) Didn't want to get out of bed!

Our docs should come this morning (yay!)

Gotta run - have conference call with our London office in a few.... my computer is the one being used to show what's going on, so I can't be surfing the next while doing it! :rotfl2:
 
Morning BOBers :wave2:

Glad to see the UKers are getting their docs :goodvibes :thumbsup2

I think Bernie would have won the race had she been home yesterday when Mr Fedex man dropped by :rolleyes1




Joanne, have a great trip!! :cool1::woohoo:
 
Mornin' All! Someone asked where we will be staying. We'll be at the Hyatt Place 2 miles from MCO (my travel agent rate was still valid!!!).

Also, someone mentioned Flash Forward: I thought it was pretty good. Has some potential. Has a LOST -y feel, though I just couldn't ever get hooked on LOST. The web article helped me understand it, though (LOST). Who else is grabbing the Bible to check out all 2:17 passages? Although next week's episode refers to it as 137 seconds. Hmmmm....


Thanks for the warm welcome! Now I'm off to clean the upstairs! Chat with you all later!

No the ticket’s are not “special” themed. They just have characters on them not Halloween themed. You as an adult will not feel like a freak if you dress up. It’s Disney you don’t have to act your age LOL If you have a child many people suggest you dress them up so they don’t’ feel left out.[/COLOR]

01. * take a rest during the day before the party.

02. * You can get into the park at 4pm with your MNSSHP ticket. This is a great way to avoid the 7pm rush of people coming out of the park! None of the party activities begin until 7pm. The reason to get in at 4pm is to get your wristbands, candy bags, settle in, get something to eat, map out your game plan and you will be ready at 7pm to participate in the festivities. If you get there at 7pm, you will have to wait in a long line to get in and get your wristbands and candy bags and you will be later starting the party. If you don't plan to get to MK at 4pm when you can first get in, still plan to go somewhat early if you are traveling via buses from the resorts. Many, many, many families go back to the resorts for their children to change into their costumes and then catch the bus to return to the MK for a 7pm party.

03. * Second Parade is much less crowded.

04. * Do not waste time early in the party waiting on lines for candy. Towards the end of the party, the lines disappear, and "SOME" cast members will give out candy by the handfuls. They actually will try to fill your candy bag to the top if you let them. Again not all cast members do this.

05. * If you are a BIG candy hog make sure you bring your own big trick or treat bag. Disney does hand out smaller bags about the size of a sandwich paper bag. Don't forget to say THANK YOU (it is nice to hear).

06. * Just outside of the Carousel of Progress, they have a candy station set up where you walk through some illuminated hoops, and end at barrels where cast members are stationed to distribute the candy. Early in the evening, you will be waiting on line to get candy. Later in the evening, you will be able to walk right through and get the candy. If you wish, you can continue looping though as many times as you like.

07. * Headless Horseman - Line up early he comes out about 15 minutes before the parade starts.

08. * Photo Ops - I would suggest you line up on your first MUST character line before 7:00.

* Cinderella's coach is out in the Fantasyland stroller parking area (next to It's A Small World). Get there early- the line gets long and closes quickly.

* Tarzan, Jane, Terk, Rafiki, and Baloo are in a large room next to the Dole Whip stand that is opened up for the party. As you exit, they give you special candy it was different from the candy being distributed elsewhere. It's on your right as soon as you cross over the bridge to Adventureland. You enter the room referred to through doors that are adjacent to the little dining area. There are cast members stationed there inviting people in, and there is a small sign identifying the area.

* Alice, Tweedle Dee and Dum, the White Rabbit, Mad Hatter, and the Queen of Hearts are on the trail between Toontown and Tommorrowland.

* Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are in Fantasyland near Dumbo or the entrance to Toontown, fairly close to the teacups (I have heard different stories of where they are - so check with a CM) Get there early- the line gets long and closes quickly.

* Mickey and Minnie in their Halloween Costumes were at the beginning of Main Street, in a Gazebo, between Exposition Hall and the Train Station. I also heard you can find Mickey in costume in his house and Minnie in Toontown Hall. Again ask a CM

* Donald at Donald's Boat

* Goofy at Barnstormer

* Cinderella/Prince Charming and Aurora/Prince Phillip should be in Toontown in the Princess room

* Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet are out, in costume near Pooh's Playground

* Woody, Jessie and Bullseye should be in Frontierland, near the Diamond Horseshoe

* Peter Pan, Wendy, Hook, and Smee should be near the PotC ride

* Aladdin, Jasmine, Abu, and Genie should be near the Carpet ride

* Daisy, Pluto, Chip, Dale, Belle at Toontown Town Hall gift shop

* Little Einsteins at Toontown Train station

* Ariel at Ariel's Grotto

* Goliath the Gargoyle behind Cinderella Castle

* Br'er Bear & Br'er Rabbit at Big Thunder Mountain

* Buzz Lightyear at Timekeeper

* Stitch at Cosmic Ray's

* Fairies in Toontown tent

* Stepsisters and Lady Tremaine in Belle's Garden (I heard Merlin was here at one time)

* Make sure you stick around after the Villains show, they come down and you can get pics with them! They don't do autographs, because of time constraints, but you can meet Malifecent, the Evil Queen, Cruella DeVil, the Queen of Hearts, Frollo, Captain Hook, and Jafar. The villains are out for about 15 minutes after all of their shows EXCEPT for one show. There is one show per night that they don't stay out after because there isn't enough time, I heard it was the show before the fireworks.

09. * Other Photo Ops-There's a Mickey ghost on a pathway near Crystal Palace, the store Windows on Main St, a HUGE Pumbaa in Adventureland -- the candy stops have neat displays to take photos after the crowds die down.
There is a huge blow up Stitch on top of the building that holds Monsters Inc.
You MUST get your picture taken in front of the horseless carriage in front of the HM. When you see it on photopass...you have a "guest" in your picture

10. * Enjoy the hidden gems: the ghouls in front of HM are awesome and if they tease you, zing 'em back.

11. * If it calls for rain bring your ponchos.

12. * During the party Face painting is FREE

13. * Face makeup doesn't run too much in rain, but does smear when you try to wipe the pouring rain off your face.

14. * If you want MNSSHP T-shirts (last year's were about $20-$24, be sure to buy them sooner than later during the night. They do run out.

15. * Take your Glow Sticks with you it’s cheaper than buying them there. Maybe bring a small flashlight for map reading or walking in the dark LOL

16.* Remember to take it all in, RELAX and have fun. You probably won't be able to do every single thing so do your MUSTS first

17.* WEAR COMFORY SHOES PEOPLE LOL
