hi Michelle & Mandy,

we have never cruised on Disney before, everyone tells me once you've done a Disney cruise you will be spoiled, and wont want to sail on any other cruise line. i am pretty excited. i just wish i could book it now, but....... i must wait for our check i guess sometime in Feb. or March. i hope the kids will be ok on a ship. my son cruised only once, i dont even think he was 1 yet. and my dd never cruised before, (well once maybe if you count when i was pg with her, lol)!
well all i can do now is just wait..
so have either one of you cruised on another cruise line before?
well i guess i will chat a little bit later or tomorrow.

Hey Sue

I have to agree with you there, once you take a Disney Cruise - they've got ya This will be our 7th Cruise, we did our first 4 nighter last Summer and we loved it. We haven't Cruised on other lines before, I think it was the Disney touch that attracted us

So girls, what have you planned for the weekend ? It's my birthday on Sunday, and we're all going to our fave Chinese Buffet for Sunday lunch, so I'm pleased that I won't have to do any cooking or washing up

Have a great weekend everyone

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MANDY This will be our second cruise on the wonder. we have never cruised before this last august. We are definately hooked. The kids are still in touch with some of the kids they met on the last cruise and r trying to convince their parents to take thim on this august. The one boy actually lives in florida so he has half a chance but i don't think the others are going to be too sucessful.lol. Well chat later ladies. Mandy have a nice b day.

Hey everyone!! Welcome Sue and family Mandy Happy Birthday!! I can't believe you are home from your trip already and Christmas and New Years are over!! Where does the time go?? We were so busy over the holidays , I'm excited things should start to slow down a little bit. Two of my girls have birthdays in February though so that should be fun

This will be our 3rd Disney cruise on the Wonder. We cruised on premier cruise line back in 1990 and then didn't cruise again until May 2005 and Sept. 2006. We love the Disney cruise and can't wait to get to Castaway Cay 2 times Thanks for the picture Mandy

This is my first Disney cruise and I'm already excited.

Great report Mandy;

Thanks for checking out my trip report Michele, I'm just typing up the next installment from the Cruise.

Sorry for taking so long, but I have just mentioned to Kerry (my eldest) about getting in touch with your daughters and she is going to send you an email in a day or 2 and yes she does have myspace (infact I'm sure they both do), so they should hear from her soon. Becky is the one with the pink in her hair. A lot of people get them mixed up as they're both the same height

 

[nikkyluvsmickey]

That sounds great Mandy. My 15 year old is nicole she will be 16 on the cruise and my 13 year old is sarah she will be 14 on the cruise. we also have a son named austin he is 11 and he is less than thrilled about going to his designated club. he wants to hang out in the stack. oh well chat later.
