10-Oct-2009 - Eastern Magic St. Croix

[grlzmom]

so ive heard of some of you having flights cancelled and having travel issues...i hope everything works out for everyone and if anyone needs anything from the orlando side of things please let myself or bluecasbah know and we will try the best we can to help out

Oh no, whose flight is messed up?

Sure hope it gets straightened out.

We are playing it lazy today and will pack tomorrow.

Will be home until 930 Saturday til we head to port, so message me if someone needs something close to port and I can give you a cell number. Would leave earlier but since we are parking on their lot and they never open the parking gate until ten there is no sense in making dh drive in circles til they let us in (did that before and it didn't make him too happy lol) But we will be there at 10! Want to get that vacation started and try to get my rooms on the same deck or at least closer decks, 2 and 6 is not a good combo

High School Football game tonight and ribs on the grill,

Happy thoughts,

Hope everyone gets in safe and sound and relaxed.

Almost time......

i know JDs flight was cancelled and i think 2 other DIS members here were on the same flight so it sounds to be a headache

Hey everyone - we'll be on the ship with you - we just haven't been on to chat! This is our 2nd cruise - my husband and I along with our two girls, ages 11 and 9. I did all the planning last time and was on the DIS boards ALL the time. This time, my husband did the planning, so I haven't been active on here. Just had to give a shout out to SCHACHTELES and say that we are right down the road from you - Rosemount! Small world.

Also, did anyone get a call from Disney today? We got the upgrade we were hoping so strongly for...from a cat 8 to a cat 5. We are lovin' Disney right about now!

See you all there - safe travels!

Bellealyssa my DD's are 9 and almost 11. We talked about meeting at the Goofy pool after we get on with some of the other kiddo's. Hope to see you there too.

Here's a different question. Anyone bringing their own pillow?? I love my pillow I am debating is it worth dragging along??

Ha, you really do need a vacation!

Finally finished packing. Leaving for the airport in 3 hours. We have way too much stuff! I could not figure out what to leave behind. I do not know how we are going to bring back anything we buy. Maybe it will help us to go too crazy shopping.

I just finished packing here too, it's just past midnight and we leave by 8 am tomorrow!

Whew, now just have to triple check that the documents we need are in my carry-on and I can go to bed.

 

[bluecasbah]

[Schachteles]

Less than 14 hours and we are on the plane!! Here's to hoping there are no delays...safe travels to everyone!!

 

[bluecasbah]

[grlzmom]

We are still not packed, feeling totally lazy and will throw it all in the suitcases in the a.m.

As long as I can find the passports and credit cards we are ok

Safe travels for everyone, wishing easy flights, no delays and hoping to see some DIS board people at port.
