11/30/06...The Wonder

[Jeanne B]

Can't believe the van is loaded and we are leaving tonite! Two large luggages, 1 garment bag and 3 duffle bags later - not too bad for 5 for 13 days (told you I'm not doing laundry). Of course, I mostly packed warm weather clothes - positive thinking - or maybe I want a new winter wardrobe! The weather looks alittle iffy for now, but we're heading for disney (after our family visit) on sunday 11/26 and it looks like it will be beautiful. Thursday, 11/30 calls for thunderstorms, but warm. (anything over 40 works for us CT natives!) DH says weather doesn't matter cause we're going to have quality family time for 13 days! (We'll see what he's saying on the 6th day!!!) Can't help but to want everything to be perfect - but I guess it already is! See ya on the 30th -

Have a safe trip and here's wishing for warm weather for all of us!! I can't believe the 30th is just 9 days away, DD and I are flying down on the 29th and I really need to start packing!!

Have a safe trip down here! And ENJOY your long family vacation. Sounds WONDERful! It's very cold here right now (I live 10 minutes from WDW), but the forecast calls for a warming trend through the week! Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Happy Thanksgiving!

One week and it will be OUR TURN on the WONDER!

We're leaving Thursday morning! (Live right across the state, lol!) Very excited!

I'm getting ready to start my last work day

When I'm all done today, I'm going to take DD to dance class, while DH packs up the van. After dance, we are on the road The kids still do not know...I can't believe it! It was so hard not to say anything last night before bed!

We'll be in Orlando by the end of the day (but just barely, we have a very late flight)!

I never did get around to making signs for our door...but if I see anybody who looks disBoard-ish, I'll say hello!

Have a good trip everyone!

I made a door sign for our first Wonder cruise last year and there were hardly any other door signs so I wouldn't worry about it. How exciting that you'll be there tonight and for the kids especially when they realize their surprise!!

Hey guys, checking in to see how everyone's trip was. Let's hear all the details!

 

[Narnian_Princess]

My trip was amazing! I'm going to start on a trip report in a couple of days and I'll link to it in my signature. I most likely saw all of you aboard ship; I just didn't recognize anyone! I'll post some pics; maybe some of you will remember having glimpsed me.

Our trip was amazing too! We got a call from Stef at Guest Services on Thursday night to tell us that we were selected to be the Magical Family of the cruise We were given a free upgrade from Cat. 11 to Cat. 5 and a bunch of other surprises

My kids LOVED the cruise and we all can't wait to go back. Didn't we have absolutely perfect weather on CC?

OMG, that's SO exciting!! How neat for you and your kids!!

I hope everyone here had a great time, I couldn't believe how beautiful the weather was, we went in late October last year and the weather this past weekend was better than last year. And naturally the cruise was fantastic also.

My DD was embarassed at the sailaway party because we were up on deck 10 and the CM pointed up to her and said "Hey sweetie, you're not doing the twist, just do it like this", etc, etc. She's pretty shy and to be singled out in front of an entire cruise ship full of people was embarassing (she loved it though, her face turned all red and all she could do was giggle ).

We spent a couple of days in WDW and now it's back to the office and back to the real world.

We had a blast! It was our first ever cruise and I am hooked!! Loved it, loved it, loved it!! CC is more beautiful than I imagined and I wanted to stay on that beach chair at Serenity Bay FOREVER!! lol!

My granddaughter and I had an amazing time on this cruise, but it ended too soon. Rachel is a little shy so she didn't get into a lot of the activities, but she had a wonderful time and so did I. I told her that we will definitely do it again!

I had a great time on my first ever cruise.
We had great weather!
A friend set sail a week later 12/7 and did not have the great weather that we had.
I was in an inside cabin on 2nd floor. My cabin host, Odell was wonderful.
One thing I learned is to set alarm or request a wake up call.
First morning of cruise, I slept till 1030am.
Missed breakfast. I hurried to top deck and was amazed by the beautiful blue waters of Nassau.

Hey, I know it's been a while since the cruise, but hopefully one of you is a pack rat like me...
I was also on the 11/30 Wonder and am now beginning to put together a scrapbook of our trip. However, when I went thru all the stuff I brought home, somehow I managed to lose the Friday 12/1 Navigator. I would really like to have a copy of it so it could "complete" all the memories I have from the cruise. If anyone still has theirs, could you please scan each page of it and send it to me?? I would greatly appreciate it! I have all the others, so I could do the same if anyone else is missing one.
Thanks so much!!!

I'm pretty sure we kept our Navigators. Let me locate them and will get back to you in the next day or two . . . would be glad to scan what I have.
