11/13/04 Eastern Cruise only We Did It

[cjsmom97]

Pat - If they made that change, it definately didn't apply to our cruise. I called the excursion desk myself to get the info straight from them on Saturday or Sunday. I wanted to make sure I had all the info I needed from everyone and wanted to confirm the day we could book. She pulled up our cruise date and said that today was the day everyone could call. Lucky for me, the coordinator must have access to the excursion reservations system because she was able to get them done before the excursion desk opened. Everyone got the time they wanted. See, Jen!! You should have let me know!! That's ok, there is always next December!! Hope to see you all in chat tonight.. I may miss a bit as I have to exercise... I have some extra weight to lose to kick everyone's dieting butt!!!

Hey! Someone posted "live from the Magic" that they ARE going to CC this week!!! Hooray!!!

Now let's hope she weathers the rest of hurricane season w/o further damage!:thewave: :thewave:


oh, p.s., we're going on the morning Golden Cat...but I saw your post (Tina?) about the water temp...hmmmm...second guessing myself now...

I'm coriedorie's DD Katie and just had a silly question if anyone knows - there was mention of the coffee on the ship, do they offer sugar substitute like equal or sweet-n-low? I like my coffee with lots of cream and sugar, just not regular sugar.

Welcome Katie - and YES - plenty of artificial sweetener available

Did I read somewhere on the boards that DCL doesn't routinely carry Splenda? If not, I will have to bring my own, because I like it in my coffee and unsweetened tea (it dissolves better than sugar). Not that I'm planning on dieting, since I will have been suffering for weeks on one!

 

[Hannosmom]

Last time I was on the Magic, they had Equal and that icky pink stuff (which my sister just loves--- go figure?....she loves licorice too....yuck.....my mom must have dropped her on her head when she was born ), so if you like Splenda, you might have to bring some with you.

Keep safe, Tina and adisneymama! Prayers and pixie dust for all those in harms way.

Hannosmom, I am a splenda person. That is a great post. I told Trish that you were a "wicked smart" person.
She thinks so to.

Hi everyone. My name is Carolyn and I'm new to this thread. I just booked the cruise three days ago - since I was scheduled to be on the Halloween cruise but couldn't get off of work. I'm interested in getting to know a few people before the cruise so I at least have someone to say "Hello" to. Let's see, I'm category 12 gty but don't know a room number yet. Age 28, single and traveling alone. That's about it. Hope to be able to jump in on the thread. Thanks, Carolyn.

Thanks everyone. We are starting to get bad weather now. Our family house on Dauphin Island will probably be destroyed. We will have to go to Mobile to help clean up and save what we can.
My mom and grandparents are here evacuating from Mobile.

I'll post when I can. Thanks for the prayers.

 

[GrayFal]

Mama...please be safe, we are watchimg pictures of Mobile on TV....incredibly windy already@

And Carolyn, Glad you found us! Please join in - we are a group whose ages range from mid 20's to mid 50's so I am sure you will find a fit here

We will not punish you and make you read ALL our pages of threads but going back 10-12 or so will get you up to speed.

We are planning a DIS meet on Saturday at 2:30 someplace?????(someone else jump in here) and you are of course, very welcome to come.

So WELCOME

Ok, so I think I'm in the minority on this one but...we don't plan on booking any excursions. Yes, it's ok, you can thank me...one less person you'll be competing with! LOL

We aren't either. We are just planning on winging it. We do want to do St. John so we'll probably just take the ferry across and go from there.

Welcome Carolyn! I've cruised alone once but couldn't afford DCL by myself! I'm 35 and travelling with mom. We have a GTY category 12 too.
