12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 13

[lbgraves]

Welcome Ebeck.

Best place to start is read the first entry in this thread then email Lisa with your info so she can add you to the cruise page she made and send you the link.

Sorry guys, but I am no longer adding to the website, We leave in 4 days and I simply do not have time.

Not even sure how to follow this, do I have to look for my orig. msg. each time to see if someone has responded? Anyway - I'm Gayle, traveling with my husband and two daughters - 11 and almost 8. We're big DW vacationers but this is our first Disney cruise!

Yes that is how I do it ....Welcome....And did you get your Pirate costumes packed ????

 

[lillygator]

Ok, I thought you had said just at certain stores. I would assume most of Florida would have them. DD really needs more shorts!

I think certain areas have certain stores.....Target, WM, the mall all have shorts here and we are on the other coast of FL from PC.

 

[lillygator]

my dad has no docs and apparantly did not know he needed any.......he thought he paid and that was it??!

 

[tynkerbell]

I'm not so worried about that. I just want some time in the hot tub, relaxing. The message is just a perk. Maybe I will tell him to get the stone one as he doesn't want to be touched so much. He doesn't realize it will make his back feel better.

I've never had a massage but my back is always tensed up. We'll have the Rainforest passes though so I'm thinking relaxing on those loungers might be good enough for me.

Wasn't sure about that pirate dress up thing? So, everyone dons real costumes? Is that your family in the picture? Did you purchase costumes esp. for the trip? So confuesd! My older daughter was a pirate for Halloween last year so that might work for her.

 

[tynkerbell]

Speaking of Target (why, yes, I do enjoy that store!) I got another Target Christmas catalog-type book in the mail today. If you get one, don't toss it in the recycling bin too quickly; there's a coupon inside for $10 off $100 purchase, good until Christmas eve. (yeah, it requires a big purchase, but if you are going to do a major Target run, every bit counts!)

I barely ever leave Target without spending at least $100 even when I just go for one thing. I think that's why DH hates it when I shop there.

Most of us are dressing up & we are over 200 strong.

Yes alot of people wear Pirate costumes on Pirate night ....The DIS group - which is this thread and some lurkers total well over 200 people which I would say 95% of those people will be dressed for Pirate Night ... Yes that is me and the Fam in the Pic , Its not the best pic ..lol doesnt really show my good side ... - See your one down and 3 to go on your Family for Pirate night ...

 

[ebeck]

Wow! I guess we'd stand out if we didn't dress up then! Another question - how formal is the formal night??

 

[lillygator]

Samantha was just talking about "our" Jack Sparrow...."mom, is he coming on the JS ride too?"

this cruise we rented a tux for DH and I'll be in black floor length, but DH has worn suit and tie before.

Where are you from? When are you coming in to FL?

 

[ebeck]

We are from CT and fly in the morning of the 9th. We're just doing the cruise no Disney World this time. Hope the kids won't be bummed about that.

I got that catalog yesterday but I just thumbed through it and don't see any coupon. Is it hidden somewhere?

 

[lillygator]

target has a catalog?

 

[DisneyVegas1]

I Like how I have become "OUR" and its Captain Jack Sparrow .......

 

[lillygator]

I ordered the girls baskets....spent a bit more than I wanted to but oh well.

It's like one of those tear-out magazine subscription cards.

Many in this group are wearing tuxes for the formal night. If not that, then dark suits with ties.
