Okay, I guess this is going to be a game of hide-and-seek. See how long we can go without seeing pink! :scared:

I'm here. It is a cold rainy, windy day here in Chicago. Oh to be on the Magic right now. A reunion cruise sounds good. We are cruising December 4, 2010. Our friends are cruising with us again. (Providing we all are able to keep our jobs to pay for cruising.)
 
:cool1: I can't believe this time next week, we'll be on the road to Disneyland. :cool1:

7 days until the Taylors hit the road to where it all started! :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: :wizard:

You will love how easy it is to park hop at Disneyland. We were there in November and it was so easy to see everything.

I am SOOO jealous!!! Tina and I have talked about going to Disneyland so that we can actually know that Walt was there. :sad1: My whole thing is we would have to fly out there and I don't know what else we would do to make a vacation of it. I don't know if I would need to spend a whole week just at Disneyland, and I don't know what else there is to see there. You'll HAVE to show us pictures when you get back!! :thumbsup2 As far as a reunion cruise, Tina and I are DETERMINED to get on the inaugural cruise of the new ship! Any takers??

I spent a week at Disneyland. You can make a vacation of it.

We too plan to be on one of the new ships for the first cruise somehow. :thumbsup2
 
OK, I'm here too!

We'd love to do an inaugural cruise, but can't make any decisions on that just yet. If circumstances allow, we'll be there!

In the meantime, I'm busy planning my 4-night cruise this May and starting to plan that December cruise. We'll be making the final decision on that one sometime between now and mid-May. It depends on a bunch of things, but right now it looks like we'll be doing it!

Heck! Tina and I are planning vacations for the next 4 years!! :lmao: I know, we're hopeless! We are doing an Alaskan cruise in May with my parents, my brother, his wife, and daughter, and my grandfather. Then in December we're doing the western DCL. Next year we're looking into a week at Disneyland, and paying off some bills. Then, in 2011 the inaugural cruise with Disney's new ship(s) (speaking of, does anyone know the names?) and then in 2012 we're looking at doing 10 days in Europe through Virgin vacations! Whew!!!

So does anyone have any recommendations for hotel choices at Disneyland? Tina is looking into it as we speak (or type) and is looking off-property. She said that it's cheaper that way and there are so many close hotels, that there's not a huge advantage to staying on-property, unlike at WDW. :confused3
 
We stayed at The Candy Cane Inn in November. (The room was a little small and not much storage but we manged.) They have free shuttle to Disneyland. Free breakfast at the pool. It was the first time us Chicago people ate breakfast outdoors in November!:thumbsup2 They also had some indoor seating. Everyone there was very nice and they offer a AAA discount. We stayed at the Disneyland Hotel once and know it is very expensive for the time we spent in the room, which was only to shower and sleep. Hope this helps. Ten year ago we stayed at the Castle Inn, it was okay at that time. Not sure about now.

Y'all sound like us! :rotfl:

:wizard: We're staying at the Disneyland Hotel next week. I'll let you know how it is. Wendy stayed there recently and seemed to like it. I have been on the Disneyland threads a lot lately. They seem to favor the Howard Johnson's on South Harbor Blvd. I have also seen the Candy Cane Inn mentioned with positive reviews. We may drive by HoJo's. Once we know the lay of the land, we may stay off-property next time.

Wendy,

:worship: You are the "Cruise Guru". Do you have any experience with NCL? We're thinking of cruising with them next fall. We'd appreciate any comments/reviews. :goodvibes

Is it me or is something missing from the other thread? Is it safe to come out from our hiding place? ;)

:confused: Jennifer

PS - Thank you Moderator. :rolleyes1

What do you mean? I haven't seen ANY activity since last Friday morning when Wendy posted about MNSSHP. Did a mod jump in there and say something to her? :confused3

I'd love to be able to plan that far ahead, but we just can't because of work schedules. I'm the only one who's guaranteed a regular schedule with regular vacation time approved when I want it. And I get an awful lot of it (not that I'm complaining, of course;)). But, because I get so much of it, I don't mind traveling without Jim sometimes, because I always have time to travel with him, too. In fact, if he can't make the December cruise, my friend Leslie is more than happy to go along instead.

We were originally planning to make the December trip a family vacation, but DS informed us over the weekend that he and DDIL are going to Las Vegas in November for their 10th anniversary, and they won't be joining us in December. They were married in Vegas, but DDIL wasn't quite old enough to enjoy all of the entertainment out there, so they want another chance to enjoy it all. So, that means that we'll have more money for our own trip. I may even consider bringing the older DGD along. I wouldn't attempt to bring the babies without their parents! So, as long as I get back home in time for Christmas, I think the December cruise will be a "go".

Whoo hoo!! The more the merrier! I know Tina will be excited to get on here and see what all's going on after Easter. This whole thing of giving up the DIS for lent has been TOUGH. But, I guess it doesn't help when your husband is sitting 3ft. away from you with the laptop looking at it. :rolleyes1
 
It's been a tough week for us already. My best friend's husband is dying and our son lost his corporate position with the "on every corner drugstore" chain. It's a horrible time to job hunt. So please keep my friend and our son in your thoughts and prayers.

Oh, Judy... I am SO sorry for both of them! I can't even assume that I know what you all are going through, but I will certainly say a prayer for everyone. Who knows; hopefully your son might be able to find an even better job and this will be a blessing. :grouphug:
 
Thanks, I told my son that maybe they did him a favor and he will find something much better.
One good thing happened this weekend, we saw two robins on the way to church Sunday, so that means Spring is on its way to Chicago. This winter was one of the worst I remember. Very, very cold and a lot of snow. We are ready for warmer temps and some sunshine.
