I'd love to make it to the 4 am port meet....but it will all depend on the flights we get. If we leave early enough we'll be able to get to port on Friday.
My mom and I have been down near Grills to watch the Magic sail up the channel a couple of time in the early morning hours, it is so peaceful and quiet that time of day, and oh yeah, DARK!!!
I've also been surfing the 'net for hotels near O'Hare that do free extended parking. Our flight to AZ leaves at 8:10 am, so I think we might drive down the night before.
The absolute cheapest parking at O'Hare is $9/day (x8 days is $72) and I've fould a couple hotels in the $89-99/night rate with free parking for 10-14 days plus airport shuttle.

We have stayed at the Radison and the Residence inn. I liked the Residence better. It was cleaner and the breakfast was included. The Radison has a much nicer pool, but the kids weren't with us so it didn't matter. We had dinner at Grills. That was really good.
One time we did RCCL from Port canaveral. It was hard to watch the Wonder pull out. We did have a really nice time on the mariner, but it's just not the same.
