Bill3540, You have contributed and just by showing up and saying Hi will be contribution enough. Or get as involved as you want, just enjoy that is what makes it all so much fun.

Scott,
I saw that the cat 4 was available yesterday too. We are waitlisted for a cat 4, so I called DCL and was told that it really isn't available, just for waitlist. (Ugh!)
This doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but....

Anyway, when I just looked again, everything from Cat 5-12 are showing available. I keep waiting for someone to cancel within the next week so we can get a cat 4.

Keeping my fingers crossed
Laurie
AKA Captain Mary Flint

Well, if we get our beloved Cat 3, you're welcome to take our Cat 4

Don't think it works that way, though

Jeff updated the list (again!!!!) but still has to add the new pictures to the list....
Got our stuff from zazzle and cafe press, looks great!

 

[BobandLee]

Ever been to Margarettaville at Universal in Orlando? Robert and I went last time I was there on business and had a great time. Guess we won't have time to hit it this trip, but maybe when we go back again for member homecoming!

In the restaurant once. In the inside bar once (for 3 hrs waiting for Emiril's) and the outsid bar once, twice or maybe....
Also to Margaritaville Key West, New Orleans and Las Vegas.
Hey, if you're a Parrotthead, it's one of those things you just have to do.

WEll Said: You 2

Robert is with the Operating Engineer's Local 3. He walked in and told his boss on Dec. 15 he wanted a layoff! They gave it to him. We then went on the 10 day Christmas Cruise!

Linda

My thought's exactly.. LOL Peter

Was also discussed that I would Get done in early May !$!
So I can Go Cruising / 3 week vacation...

 

[first timers]

Much appreciation to all of you who have put together the events, gifts, etc. There are too many of you to list individually. But, please know that those of us who have contributed absolutely nothing, greatly appreciate all of your effort and personal expense in enhancing what is, at least for me, a once in a lifetime trip. I hope to meet and personally thank each and every one of you on the boat.

Bill- Some people are good organizers and others know how to use thier resources better than others. We found out about the DISboard on the Christmas 2004 cruise and started getting involved. We decided to bring some things to share with others because we love Disney cruises and all the people on this DISboard are pretty nice (and at times nutty) people. Just meeting the others on this board will enhance the cruise, the goodies are a bonus. Alex

Just took a quick peek at the "Where we are staying" page on Jeff & Jen's site. Heavy concentration of us on deck 6! And we still don't know where everyone will be on the ship with all the gty statuses. I can't wait to start getting our cruise docs! Could happen as early as mid-April...

Hey everybody, I just saw on another thread on the dis that there will be a new increase in passport fees effective 3-8-2005. What it appears to mean is that an additional 12 dollars will be added to all new passports from then on. If you are going to get one, you better get it now or pay another 12 bucks over the original cost. Sorry if I am repeating, I have had trouble keeping up.

Removed the other pin design choices from the web site so now only the official pin of the west bounders is visible.

[Mickey&JoshNut]

I am so excited...I got all the custom lifesaver wrappers done...well almost all - I did eat a few lifesavers while I was making the wrappers!!!!!

I can't wait to distribute them on the ship. I hope you guys will like them.

Just 79 more days!!!!!!

Elaine

 

[bonzie1]

Thanks Bill,

We ordered ours last week. I'll be on pins and needles 'til we get them.

 

[spros]

I just ordered my t-shirts today. How long has it been taking for shirts to arrive - I know I took forever to order but I want then NOW!!! Patience is not a strong suit of mine.

 

[Scott H]

Elaine, I am sure they will be great. Lynn will try to take a couple of extra, just warn ya. She uses them when she dives as it helps her clear her ears.

I am on Pins and needles just waiting for my grass skirt, any other takers out there????

You guys should be fine with your Passport applications, but still I understand your excitement and apprehension.

5000 post wow did not even notice, I pity any late comers to the board, then again Peter has done a most outstanding job with the up dates, and then Jen and Jeff with the web site and ennisb with the chat page and so on…….

Also noticed we are all under the 80 day mark .

Cat 4-12 available, still wonder why us GTY folks have yet to get a stateroom number?

 

[Q's My Princess]

Scott,
We haven't heard about our gty status because DCL is going to give us a SWEET upgrade!!

Also, I was going to ask DH about the idea of a grass skirt?! We'll see!

Laurie

 

[spros]

Hey kpros - if I ordered you a grass skirt, would you wear it and keep Scott company???

 

[Q's My Princess]

Scott,

Thanks for the update on availabilty of staterooms....I checked at least 4 times today for the cat 4, to no avail. But, after reading your posting I tried again and sure enough it was available! Called DCL and got it!! Yeah! I am so excited!

Thank you again,
Laurie

 

[Scott H]

Good for you Laurie, glad to hear about your success. Now I get the CAT 3 upgrade, what a dreamer I am.

Sounds like there could be a grass skirt movement a fraternity of sorts, a gentlemen’s club as it were.
