One year from today we'll be enjoying our last sea day as we head to Castaway Cay.

For those of you who haven't seen them take a look at Alex's pictures from his cruise. He's got some beautiful shots of the lobby decorated for the holidays as well as some great shots of Castaway Cay (including the tram decorated like a red-nosed reindeer).

Virgil,
Still hoping we can link our ressies sometime! That is, if I can convince you to do early seating.
We'll share the wine package with you. Did it for the first time this last trip and LOVED it!
Must go pack for the trip to Cleveland...

You all did a fine job reaching 1000! At the current rate we will pass 10,000. (if you all continue to post at yesterday's rate)

Great story Mary - you are the creative one of the cuise. Have you knitted any scarves lately??

Can't wait until next year! I had to work Christmas Eve 11pm -3am and was useless yesterday. Good thing GaRry was at work.

I will try to do my part to get us to 2000. But I usually have to get GaRry away from the computer first.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and wishing everyone a Blessed New Year!!!!

I may be creative word wise - but I'm not good at knitting or crocheting. I thought Karyn was going to take care of that for us.

 

[Kabuli1]

Yep, I'm the knitter/crocheter - however, these hand have been busy w/ other chores - maybe after our move I can start in on that!

Hi Ken, welcome! I think you should read all 1024 or so posts!

Vicki! Hi, so good to see you! You don't check in often enough.

Hi Everyone!

We are also booked for the 2004 Christmas Cruise!! I sent Mary an E-Mail with our info. There will be 4 of us - me, DH, DD (age 9 at cruise time) and DS (age 6 at cruise time). We are currently booked in a cat 4 room but are on the waitlist for a cat 3 - looks like some people are having luck with the waitlist - good news - keeping fingers crossed!! This will be our 2nd cruise - we did a 3-day 2 years ago and the kids loved it!! They can't wait for next year's cruise!! Can't wait to read the newletters!!!


Happy Holidays!!

Michele

 

[WDWLVR]

Welcome to the DIS Michele and welcome to the 10 day cruise thread as well! I got your e-mail and sent you the info on the newsletter. Hope you enjoy them! Need to start working on January's

Hey all its Friday night - anyone going to chat! I'll be there. Maybe Mark too (DSL is a wonderful thing).

 

[afff]

Hey MSEC-DVC95

I couldn't help noticing.....your kids and mine are pretty well the same age.
Fantastic ( playmates )
My kids ....... DS age 6 and DD age 10.


Mine do not know as of yet.
Its killing me not to tell them.

 

[jilljill]

Hi everyone, here - for those of you who read Mary's wonerful story.

Welcome to Ken and Michele.

If Michele gets a cat. 3 then we can have a wine party there too. So many parties, so many bottles of wine and so little time.

Karyn, #5000 is saved for you!!!

 

[justmestace]

Hi Everyone! We're still hanging in there, paying for the cruise bit by bit and hoping for the upgrade from a 4 to a 3. By the looks of it, I don't think it will happen....there aren't that many of them.
Anyway, I have to quit going out of town, I keep getting further and further behind in my reading of all the posts. It looks like there will be no "strangers" on this cruise!
I was so excited when my countdown timer got past the 365 day mark.
Disneyland was great, but doesn't quite help get rid of the "I NEED to go on a cruise!" feeling. The four of us agreed, after a long day in the parks, that we are much more the Disney cruise types.
I can't wait for this Christmas cruise, but it also seems silly to be wishing to be a whole year older!!!! I don't have that many to spare!

 

[MSEC-DVC95]

Hi Afff - that is so cool that you kids are the same ages!! My daughter will be thrilled to have a friend on board - she actually asked me if there would be any other girls her age on board - I had a hard time not to laugh - I don't think she realizes how many kids will be on the cruise!!! My son will be happy too!!

JillJill - if we get the cat 3 then by all means we can have a wine party there too!!


Michele

 

[jilljill]

Michele, thanks for letting me invite all my new friends to your suite (hopefully ) for a party.

My DD will be 10½ when we cruise. So more kids her age to hang out with too.

 

[wdwgoose]

MORE NEWBIES, WELCOME
ALRIGHT well we passed the 1000, others are claming theres
and I'll wait til mine 10,000 post

well it was nice
so another day at work for me. just could not say no for the overtime to day.,., hope everyone had a good christmas,???
next one I'm sure we all will. at least a warm one !!!!!
missed chat last night way to tired.

jilljill I will only bring wine with a cork in it okay??????

gaRry

 

[jilljill]

gaRry, you can bring whatever wine you would like to, it just doesn't mean that I have to drink it In fact, I do drink screw top wine, my mom has some in her fridge now, she's not really a wine drinker so that is just about her speed. I happen to prefer corked wine, got that from my dad.
I'm really not a wine snob, just very picky.
Also, get all the overtime you can get so you have more money to spend on the cruise. Be safe.

 

[wdwgoose]

JILLJILL,
I don't drink. BUT I will have a cork in a bottle of boonesfarm at time of sailing............
never did drink much antways and now not any, I guess part my choice and all my docs choice. so i get to be the driver every night on the cruise when you need a driver just call.
I was checking on the 4-10-04 cruise prcing!!!!! this 10 day is looking pretty cheap right now!!!!!!!! last over time this year for me. (well)
?????????
