20040131 ~ Cruising Jan 31 2004 Western Who's with us?

[OKWMEMBER]

Karyn, for me, Mission: Space is a HIGH priority. The DW isn't so sure. Margaritaville is the day before the big day, kind of a pre-show for my 50th. I think Isabel will miss Chicago.

Thanks for putting the great list together, Dean... we are staying in stateroom 6592.

KMC33 and Gary - Margaritaville will never be the same... Have a fantastic time!!!!!

talk to you all soon,
Annie

 

[kmc33]

Oh no, are we in trouble ?! I didn't realize that Gary had a reputation!!!!

I can't wait!!!! We have never been to Universal. And Margaritaville and Citiwalk look like fun!

Thanks again for compiling the list, Dean. My family is in cabin 7119.

TGIF!!! Hope everyone has a great weekend. It's supposed to be a nice weekend here once Isabel finishes passing through. We didn't get it as bad as eastern PA. And I have been saying prayers for everyone on the Mid-Atlantic coast who really took the hit.

Any fun plans for the weekend?! DH has 20th high school reunion this weekend ... Mine was in April! Where does the time go?!

Sunday it's down to Penn Brewery Oktoberfest!!!! I look forward to this all year. And then next Thursday we are off to Orlando!

Gary - DH says, knock on wood, there are no storms brewing in the Atlantic right now.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

- Kim

hi guys were in room 6581 only a few rooms from annie just over 4 months to go now were really starting to get excited

 

[Annie12345]

Hi Shingle - that's great... I noticed that my daughter is right between your kids in age... she will have just turned 10...

KMC33 - you will have a blast with Gary and Gail... they are so much fun!!! Wish we were joining you...
- Annie

 

[OKWMEMBER]

As Annie says, we are two fun lovers!! We're hoping to go to Mickey's Not Too Scary Halloween Party on Oct. 3rd. It's always a blast! I sang to Cruella Deville last time! ... If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will!...

Dry Dock for the Magic next week! I'm really anxious to see what they do to the old Off-Beat area. I also heard there was going to be some work done on Rockin' Bar D. We'll have to wait for the trip reports!

We have major rain here. The week-end was nice, at least! And the Steelers won!

Less than a week to AARP Day!!!!

Have a Disney Day!!!

 

[Kabuli1]

Woohoo Gary! AARPday coming up! Can you even concentrate on work right now? Bags packed? Are you driving down or flying and where do you fly out of? And if I don't get to say it then - HAPPY BIRTHDAY, OLD MAN!

When we went to WDW for DH's AARPday one of the things he forgot to do before we left was renew his DL so I had to do all the driving!

I wish we could join y'all at Margaritaville - sounds like a wonderful time!

Oh, back to the topic - I noticed that a lot of us are way aft - that's pretty cool! Gary you and DW can walk all the way to the back to visit the rest of us! Dean, are you keeping track of all the cabin numbers?

have a bouncy day!

Karyn

 

[dheller97]

Yep, Karyn, I'm up to date with the list! Got 50 on it so far counting all of the spouse, kids, and in-laws. Thought if we needed a bump next week I'd put it back up there for everybody to see.

Have a good week!

Dean

 

[Chickenlady]

Sneaking back to the DIS boards to put our names on the Jan 31 Magic list. It'll be me, DS (6), DM, and DBF (best friend not boyfriend..DH wouldn't approve if I took my boyfriend). DH will not be joining us after his first 4 night Wonder last Jan.....can you say "seasick". We are in 7092.

Can't wait!

 

[OKWMEMBER]

Whazzup???? We're flying down from Erie with a connection in Pittsburgh (Hi KMC33!). We're starting to pack and it's hard to concentrate on work. It looks like the hurricanes will keep their distance so far.

Yes, we be up in the bow so we'll be the first ones into port! We've never been this close to an end of a ship so I hope the ride isn't too rough.

Are we gonna get t-shirts or something? I think we have enough people to make a go of it! Hats and visors at least! On our last cruise we had a DIS meet on deck 4, the balcony around the atrium outside Studio Sea. It was fun and a great place for group pictures!

Just a few random thoughts!

Have a Disney Day!!!

 

[dheller97]

Hi, Chickenlady-

As unofficial keeper of the list, welcome from everyone on it! I've added you and yours to our list and will post it sometime next week.

Glad to have you and know what you mean by "can't wait!"

Dean

 

[Kabuli1]

Gary! Wow, do you leave tomorrow? I think t-shirts or something would be nice - but I can't do anything to help - not with trying to keep this thing hush hush from DD. Sorry! I'm not gifted in that way, anyway.

Looking forward to seeing the list next week, Dean! Why do you want to go to Hell anyway? As I undrstand it, it's a rather cheesy tourist trap w/ a few interesting rock formations. I haven't been there, so I might be all wrong in this assessment. Stingray City and especially Capt Marvin's 3 hour tour are "Do Not Miss" on Grand Cayman. Tho we may do the early 2 hour tour so that we can also do the horseback riding there - it's supposed to be spectacular. If you look down a few pages Jill responded to a thread about excursions that teens would like on the Western Cruise. Your DS might like to read that. (Her DIS name is PrincessAuroraInBlue.)

All y'all that are going to WDW in the next couple days - have a truly magical time and Gary, I'll lift one in you honor on your AAPRday!

Karyn

 

[dheller97]

G'morning, Karyn-

You would have to know some of my in-laws to appreciate why I want to send them a post card from Hell!

Take care,
Dean

 

[Kabuli1]

HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!HA!!!! Oh Dean, you really need to tell me this story!!! Please email me!!!!!

Oh, and Chickenlady, I forgot to say WELCOME to our fabulous gang!

I am SO looking forward to meeting everybody!

Karyn

 

[OKWMEMBER]

We leave Saturday, which will give the folks at work a chance to abuse me on Friday! I love the attention!

I apprecite the thought, Karyn!!! I'm sure to have a Turtle Krawl at the Gurgling Suitcase at OKW on Sunday!

We will have to have someone take a photo of us at Margarittaville so we can have the first group photo on the thread! We'll be wastin' away!!! We will definately have a group adult beverage at the one in Key West.

Two more work days!!!

HADD!!! (Short for Have A Disney Day!!!)

 

[dheller97]

What became of the DIS shirts to be offered in the DIS Store? Haven't heard anything since the original poll.

Have a happy AARP day, Gary and hoist one for me.

Dean

 

[kmc33]

See you at Margaritaville, Gary!

Only one more day of work! We leave on a late flight tomorrow evening! I am really excited, but tired. Getting packed and getting things ready for DGrandma to come stay with DS.

 

[OKWMEMBER]

We'll see you shortly, Kim!!! Have a safe Flight! We're still packing.

Thanks, Dean! I'll hoist one for all my DIS board friends!
