Hey whoever will take me, I am up for that, lol.

To get to back to MCO, I know that I can book a one way transfer either ahead or on the ship! Although last cruise there was a whole family that just got on our bus, they kept laughing that they had not paid for transfers. I thought there was some system to keep track of that!

Such a good lesson they were teaching their kids.

If we decide to rent a car we will definately have an extra seat since it will only be DrHug, Aaron and me. DrHug likes to use Disney transportation, but I like to get there early. We will see who wins out this year. Last year we went his way and Parrot Cay was already closed for lunch by the time we got on board. I much prefer that to topsiders.

 

[lbgraves]

MTE! It surprises me that they were allowed to board...or that their luggage was put on without tickets/tags.

 

[pjpoohbear]

The CM looked at our stateroom cards at the port before boarding the bus, but no ticket or anything, for the life of me I could not tell what they were looking for. Maybe the astrik beside the word ADULT. At MCO we were given a "ticket" to hand to a CM as we got on board the bus.

I love parrot cay for embarkment, but also like to be on deck 9 to see my bag board the ship, lol.

Just to warn anyone who thinks to take me on in a car, I have a large Mickey Mouse rolling duffle bag, lol. It is long and normal width. BEWARE the big blue MM bag!

There will be four of us, and I don't want DH to have to drive. So we will be doing some kind of service but not disney as I want to get there early also. Maybe we someone could check into a van service from somewhere? Or a Limo. How much are they anyone know? Mum

 

[mum of two pirates]

Just thought I'd say hi as I haven't for a long time. Good job on getting that time in for vacation. I'd love to change my plain tickets and add a few more days on, but I think my kids will be so worn out by then, But I could always wish.

 

[MrsMork]

We used Happy Limo in 2003 for a van for 11 of us. I think Florida Tours also has vans. That might be an idea. Where are you staying, Mum?

 

[MrsMork]

WE'RE TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP! WE'RE GOING TO DISNEYLAND AND WE LEAVE TOMORROW!!

Well, I do have to work first, and I do have to go in early, so maybe I better TRY to sleep a bit. DD, Sweetpea will be picking me up at 5:30 AM for work. UGH! That is when I usually get up. I have to work until 3:30 and then DrHug will pick me up and to the airport we go! My stuff is all packed and ready to go, he still needs to get his stuff together, but he does not have to work tomorrow so he has time. He said today that he thinks he needs to take the BIG BAG so he can get good photos of our friend we are meeting and her children.

The birthday party was a success!!! The kids all had a great time! Mom, Dad, Grammy, and Pappy were totally dead last night!!! My Dh didn't want to go to work today he wanted to stay home and play with my DS's presents!!! Today is my DS's actual birthday. Jake!

 

[klineyqueen]

Wah - I am getting old! My first baby is 3!!! I swear he was in infant like...LAST WEEK!


I hope you all have a great day!

 

[lbgraves]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAKE!!!


Glad that the party went well, Brandi. They really wear me out too. Angie & Dennis...have a great trip!

Not a great day here. DH left at 5 am so the kids woke up looking for him. DD started crying saying how terrible school is & how much she hates it. Only 8 days left so I told her to suck it up & go. On the way to school she started talking about missing Daddy. Looks like it is going to be a fun week.

 

[lillygator]

Happy Birthday!!


Angie - have a great trip....

Lisa - hope your week gets better!!

John - if you're listening /reading....sorry we never hooked up. I could not get reception for some reason. The poor family who was going on our Wishes cruise kept calling and I was trying to call him back with no luck... I felt horrible. The one call I did try and get to from you - we were on our MK tour...and you were probably in FL and we could have met. Maybe next time!

This cruise is coming up....wowsa!! Wish it were Dec...well, no I don't.....I need to save some spending cash!

 

[MrsMork]

Eight more hours and I get to leave for the airport. Just waiting....

 

[MrsMork]

What fun it is to read the live report from the first DD cruise. Mary does such a good job with the details too. I'm missing my 10 day Cruise Friends though....wish I would have booked TWO DD cruises way back then.

 

[MrsMork]

Oh, NOW I remember why we didn't book TWO DD cruises.l...we would have to PAY for TWO!

Ok, I have to go to work now.

Wishing you a good time at Disney! Have a safe trip!

Aren't we lucky you picked our cruise!

 

[MommyMinnie]

We are so excited now that it is official...of course now I have to pay for it!

DS just turned 4 a few weeks ago so he will be 4 1/2 and he is very excited about going back. DD will be 22 months and hopefully she will cooperate with us. She was 12 months last time and did very well but we all know that a 22 month old is much more mobile and opinionated.

Now we need to figure out if we can squeeze in one or two pre-cruise days at WDW. DS keeps asking why we can't do both the parks and the cruise and I would love to spend 2 days with him there. We would like to do 1 day at MK and another day at AK and also go see Fantasmic one night. After 2 days like that we would be more than ready for a nice relaxing cruise. I just have to figure out if we can squeeze out a few more days of vacation.

Glad you took the plunge Becka! It's going to be great cruising with all these little ones.

 

[MommyMinnie]

Happy Birthday Jake!

Congrats on that party. You must be a real (or is it ) to take such good care of Jake. I always try to sublet birthday parties to gymnastic, karate, swimming studios.
