12/16/06 10-day holiday cruise Part 4

[KSDTink]

Got our docs here in VA on Friday

I have to say that I'm a little disappointed with the holiday decorations offered by DCL. Looks like they contracted them out because there is no Disney connection. They're just generic holiday things. Guess I'll have to scour our decorations for Disney stuff. Definitely bringing my stuffed sorcerer's apprentice stocking to hang on the fish

I have one of the DIS stockings I have been working on for your fish!!!!

still no docs in our area of WA. I did call and they said they were due to be delievered Monday.

Had to call to change around some excursions since the kids decided not to dive but DH still wants to.

Ooh, great! I thought we might be too late for that. Mickey can go inside the room. I was gonna have to cable tie him to the fish so no naughty little person could take him.

I counted rooms on the two lists we have going, and it looks like there are 36 known room numbers listed and three GTY (or at least 3 people who haven't listed a room yet). There are some rooms on the Yahoo group list that aren't on the Holiday Cruise website list. And there's a contradiction for Disney Rocks - one site says 8046 and the other says 8048. Just want to make sure we have enough goodies for everyone and know where everyone is staying.

Do the GTYs get a room number with their docs? Don't think we've ever been through that before to know what the procedure is.

happy saturday night! and hello from disney world! hehe... my mom isn't feeling well. so we came back to the hotel after seeing the osborne lights. i went to go play in the pool but the waterslide was closed. so i sat in the hot tub and then played in the pool for short bit before coming back to the room. i would have gone to the adventurer's club (i've been wanting to go for ages) but i didn't want to go alone. so here i am.

if you haven't seen the new osborne dancing lights this year, and you have the chance... it's amazing. i totally recommend it. we only have tomorrow left before we go back home *sigh* oh well... at least the cruise is only 14 days away! 14 days from now we'll be on the magic!

mickey's very merry christmas party was really cool last night. it's the first i've ever been. i have a really cool hat. even santa saw it from the parade and made a comment about it tomorrow we have a preview of the new finding nemo show at animal kingdom at 10am. i'll let you all know how that is!

quick question... no one happens to know what movies they'll be showing during our cruise do they? my mom keeps asking if i know or if i can find out. she keeps saying i knew all kinds of stuff for our last cruise and she wants to know the same stuff for this one

We are using cable ties so they don't walk off! I am not sure on the 8046 vs 8048.

Sandra, are you out there anywhere?? Which is it, 8046 opr 8048???

Shelly and Cathy, have you ladies gotten your room numbers yet??

Anybody else we missing room numbers on??? Let us know so we know where to put stockings!!! Two weeks from now we will be sailing......

 

[KSDTink]

Hi Robin, how are you this evening?? Where is everyone?? It is getting close so maybe folks are packing? Or picking up last minute things??

I just finished my first batch of Christmas cookies. No more flour so have to get some in the morning before I can do more cookies.

i'm here! i was wondering where everyone was myself. i figured since it was an 'early' night there'd be people to talk to, but i guess not!

 

[KSDTink]

Hi Holly. Sometimes there are lots of people, other times not these days. Not sure where folks are tonight. It's late for me, I'm not usually on at this hour but I just finished baking so thought I'd check in.

Here's hoping docs come on Monday!!!

 

[sugaswim]

hey kat! well it is saturday night so maybe everyone's out having fun? i figured since i had time and i wasn't tired i'd check in. that and i thought it would be fun to say hello from disney

 

[3pirates]

Hi everyone!

Had you minimized...we spent all day watching kids lose sporting events.

and then afternoon/evening doing small amount of Christmas decorating...kinda sad, but we cut back since we won't be here most of the time this year.

Now I'm going to bed, so I can get up and watch children lose some more sporting events tomorrow....

 

["Got Disney"]

No Doc's here yet either...they told me that since I did my info on line that I will basically only be getting my luggage tags and room information....let's hope by Monday...don't know why they need to wait so close to leaving time in the first palce...

 

[DCLgodess]

has something to do with the amount of money you can get back if you cancel or something like that lol

 

[KSDTink]

Good morning. Another day closer! Just discovered that I may need to go out and get new dress shirts for DH! Ugh. But I am slowly getting things packed and all seems to be well with that. DD saw my blue Disney crocs and now she wants a pair. Cannot find the blue ones anywhere around here. So have to see if she will settle for another color. Can find yellow, green, black and pink in her size, just not the blue. I need to see how the jibbitz work with those too....hmmmm.

Started my baking last night but ran out of flour so I have to pick some up at the store today. Busy day...Mom, groceries, , look for shirts for DH, take Sam to the Christmas party to see Santa, bake, pack box to send to DF..... lots to do and not enough time to do it in.

Still much to do for cruise prep too...go to bank, finish packing, finish shopping so I can finish packing , wait for docs.....

Soon soon soon

i got 30 names when I did my cards last weekend! Now I better check those names and rooms again. I still think I am going to take some spare cards with me just in case.

We were at a christmas party for DH's karate. He is a senior instructor - OH, must have drunk too much and I know I'm getting old - ohhh, feeling it this morning.

 

[booksw]

Good morning! I am packing today, too. I know I put away DD's adorable door decorations from 2004 but of course I can't find it. She was 6 then- more little girl than she is now. I'll keep looking.

The first night of Hanukah is the 15th, and we will be driving. Last cruise we did not leave our house until 10 pm and got to the hotel just past Jacksonville at 2 am and I do NOT want to repeat that painfulness.

For some reason, preparing for the disney cruise makes me more nervous than other vacations... I can't figure that out.

How far is it from Charleston? I didn't think it was that far but I haven't been out that way in a while.
