If I stay online the entire time between now and when I fly to Orlando... Will the time go quicker because I'm on DIS all the time or would it go quicker to take a break to actually sleep a little?

(Just heard an add for "Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights"... PLEASE, PLEASE, don't let that be one of the movies on board!!!

 

[yamahaboy]

haha i would deff take a break from the boards! i should know theres nothing to do around here this time of the year and all i do is hang out on the computer lol.

 

[plutospup]

Sleep? Who needs sleep? (My ER certainly doesn't think so!)Fortunately, I can check out the boards at work. Being so busy has made this past week go by very quickly.

Mama Griz...Alien Green...not my color either, but none the less I now have Alien Green Mickeys on all suitcases/carry ons! (Pluto's Pup didn't fit on the Mickey, and abbreviating it to 'PP'...well, I didn't like the sounds of that either!)

We're looking forward to meeting everyone NEXT Sunday @ 10! DD6 hopes to meet new friends!

PlutosPup--If I am as busy at my hosp. this week as I was Thurs & Fri night--I'll only have to blink and Fri am will be here!!

Ok, so I haven't slept since I last wrote on here... Should I go to bed? It's so bad now that I think I've read EVERY thread on the Debate Board... (WHAT is that board doing on here? It's so un-Walt!!!)

I think I know what I'll be doing on the Magic... SLEEPING!

 

[yamahaboy]

lol i hear you but where is the debate board?

 

[3 things]

SAVE YOURSELF! Debate boards bring out the worst in DISers - myself included...

But if you must go... click on "The DIS Discussion Forums" above...

Then click on "Debate Board" under the top 10...

Will this link work in here...

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?threadid=514322

Anyway, I don't think Walt wanted his Disney visitors to debate abortion, muslim eating patterns, Bush, Clinton, and global warming... but there it is...

SAVE YOURSELF! (12:30 and I'm still not thinking of sleep...)

 

[mississaugamom]

Although I was beginning to panic about flying from Toronto on Saturday instead of coming down a day early, the 5-day forecast here looks great - no storms looming

We arrive at MCO at 10:03 am, so I'm hoping I still have lots of time to book all my onboard ressies!

 

[divindisney]

mailman...After much debate and canceling our DCL dive excursion, it looks like we may join you at edenrock. Looks really neat and we like the flexiblity. After getting over a cold we don't want to be committed to diving if our ears aren't up to it. What equipment are you bringing? We will bring all but our BC. I can't remember if you are staying at the Radisson Friday. Maybe we will see you there.

Re: childcare...Our DS will be 6 weeks from turning 3 and potty trained. We were told he would be able to participate in kids programs. I spoke to DCL today and they said he must be a month from 3! They said it depends on how full it is and what they decide on the ship. Anyone know how strict they are about this? I'm very concerned about this one!!

We're almost there!
Thanks

 

[mailman028]

That's great Divindisney.It does give you flexibility.We are also gonna rent a car and drive around.We have been to G.C. a few times before,so we are comfortable with it.I can't wait to drive on the wrong side of the road.LOL.I'm gonna bring all my gear,weights,bc,comp etc...If you think you still might have some congestion bring some Sudafed.I think that's how you spell it.It works great.
Also another thing,if you plan on getting off the boat early when we get to G.C. you will need a tender ticket.People on excursions don't need one.Just if you go off on your own and early.If I read the Navigator correctly they said to pick one up at the Disney theater.It did not say when though.I'm gonna inquire about it Day 1.Just some F.Y.I stuff.We are also gonna be at the radisson on Friday we have to drive all the way from the west coast(of Florida)LOL.We don't want anything to hinder us.Boy that's paranoid ain't it.See ya either Friday or Saturday.If you have any other questions just ask.Mike

Not much posting going on here...everyone busy packing?

We leave for Florida in about 56 hours...DW & both DD's are packed...I haven't even started yet. Clothes are out, just not in the suitcase yet. Guess I'm waiting for them to jump in by themselves!

Don't forget to pack the sunblock lotion!!!

 

[plutospup]

...but I don't care!!!!! I'm too busy with t-shirts, shorts, sunscreen, etc. Thinking warm thoughts for a few more days, until I can actually feel the warmth!

Jbix00...Have a safe drive to FL. I hear the weather may be bad. At least you shouldn't have to drive in snow, though!

 

[jbix00]

Thanks Pluto's Pup!

The local Fox News channel threw a scare at us during the weekend...talked about the possibility of a MAJOR winter storm brewing up for Wednesday into Thursday. Turned out to be all fluff and no substance - that's the weather you and I are getting today. Thursday (day of departure for us) is supposed to be bright & sunny!

But......come to think of it, I haven't checked the weather yet for south of us for the road trip...

 

[jbix00]

Dang....looks like we will be dragging the cool weather down to Florida with us! High of 82 in Cocoa Beach today, but only a high of 65 on Friday when we arrive and a chance of showers on Saturday!

Looks like I'll have to make a sacrifice to the sun god....
