12/14/2008 4 Night Wonder

[OKW93]

FYI: Only 10 more cruises before it's our turn!

My sibs took Mom out to get a new wardrobe for the trip. I'll be going over to help her pack. Now we just have to make sure Dad has something nice to wear.

I am so excited, I'm ready to go NOW!!!!!!

I wish we were leaving today. It is absolutely a gorgeous day here in Central Florida. I'll try to keep it this way thru December 14!

Will make a point of it! I'll let you know my cabin number as soon as I get it. We did receive our fun trip documents today. That was exciting. It just really feels real when you know where you'll be sleeping!

It's what I call the travel kit envelope from DCL that has all the fun stuff in it like shore excursions, quick tips, protection plan, packing lists, etc. We get them every cruise. Very fancy and impressive.

Just wanted to get in on the dancing!

I played hookie from work today so I could stay home and get stuff done before the trip. I need to get my house ready for the holidays BEFORE we leave.
We just moved into our new home last year on Halloween (our anniversary). No celebrating that night We bought a foreclosed home that needed alot of work (real cheap!) so we started doing the demolition way before we moved in. When our other house sold, we had to bug out quickly. Our home was the only one big enough for the entire family, so everyone decided to have Christmas at our new home, regardless of whether it was done or not.
We were drywalling on Christmas eve, the tree went up at 3 a.m. and I was still stuffing presents in bags (love those gift bags!!! ) as people started to arrive. I still have a few decorations out that we never took down! This year, I am getting a jump on things.
When I get off that ship, I just want to go home and relax, knowing everything is DONE!!!

sounds like a Christmas you will ALWAYS remember. Hopefully this year won't be so stressful. We just discussed getting our holiday stuff out this weekend as we will be away over Thanksgiving, come home for a few days and then off on our cruise. Not much time in there to get festive. Well my XM HOLLY station started today. All Christmas music all the time. I am trying to get in the mood but when the temperature is still in the 80s it's not that easy!

Hi all you dancing fools! Time out!

I went up today and did my online check-in. It took a little bit of time to fill out all the forms for the 4 of us. Don't forget to do this or you'll be hung up for a bit of time at the terminal. This apparently is not something that your TA does for you, which is ok. You just want to get it done so you are not delayed at the terminal. Or if someone here has done it before...advise us newbys!

Ok, now you can get back to your dancing....

Ok I would just like to mention that today, November 14, we are about to break a heat record in Central Florida (supposed to break 88 degrees). That wouldn't be too bad except for our a/c is broken at work. Not great! Weather is so unpredictable...they're talking cold records next week. I'll keep you all posted.

I've already done the on-line check in. As I've done it before, I knew it would be a cinch. Just go to your reservation page on the DCL website and follow the easy instructions. You also have to print out a few copies to bring to the terminal. You will need your cruise contract signature form, your payment authorization form and medical form if needed. The medical form gets signed by your family doctor, then mailed to DCL.
Resort guests will be able to check in at the hospitality desk. I do believe there is a deadline for when all this needs to be done, so everyone needs to check, especially if you went through a T.A.
Thanks Linda for the reminder

Back to dancing!
