get her there safely! And don't eat all the ice cream!

 

[webray]

I didn't know you were going Cheryl!

I also didn't know that Tony & Adrienne were going- MAN I REALLY FEEL LEFT OUT!

Hi Celeste,

Nope, we aren't cruising. Just drove up to Orlando to meet with everyone and offered Bob and Lee and ride to the port. We love eating at Grills..so we stopped there afterwards.

Hard to drop the kids at the port and leave...I think if I would have had the passports..bob may have changed his mind right there. No clothes..just passports..lol.

 

[webray]

Don't worry Celeste - I'm joining you in the landlubber brigade. Adrienne was able to swing the time off, but I can't get away from work. So, I sent her off to play with everyone, and share it with vicariously...

Safe journey to all!

We are landlubbers too, unfortuantely this time around.

Was so nice to meet some of the group today you guys are going to have a blast! Webray I agree I thought about sailing many a times but not having a passport got in the way....lol

Can't wait to hear all about it...bring on the live reports!

 

[MrsG]

Bon Voyage!!! Have a great time!!

 

[anewmac]

Have fun! cant wait to hear more!

 

[Floridagram]

Just beautiful!

Thanks for posting these shots, I had company and could not get online at the right time to see this! It's hard to believe that ship just goes on without us on board!

Does anyone know what route it will take, will it go north along the US coastline and then cut across the Atlantic?

I guess we'll know within the next day or two which route the Magic will go

Enjoy and can't wait to see how you keep busy for 6 days at sea!!! Fun fun fun! Bring on the drink of the day each and every day!!! Cheers!

 

[jlawall]

Okay, I don't feel so bad now.

Adrienne is doing- what I will be doing in a few weeks. Did she adopt a roommate for the trip?


Noah realized today that I was going on the cruise without him- OMG, I feel SO horrible. I feel like the worst mom ever! I've been talking about going by myself for months now- but he thought it was he and I without Dad. I've been on the verge of tears since he realized what is going on- he is so heart broken.

I probably would have done the same. I debated doing my two week rehab on the ship....but decided I needed to spend some time with my family as I was in Florida last week.

Hi

Spot it on that your hand mean I LOVE YOU

Scottishwee35

We both know a bit of sign language and that was her ILY to me!

Hey Tony!

I saw my sister last week- she had her 3rd child and I went to visit. She asked me if I knew how you were doing- and I told her I hadn't seen you posting lately. Glad to "see" you.

icunurse_celeste - That's so sad about your son realizing he's not going with you on vacation. Don't worry about it, though...you'll both be just fine. I'm sure that you will enjoy your vacation without him. We always try to take a vacation at least every other year without the kids and I always feel guilty, but then it's so nice to have adult time with no kids! (Dont' get me wrong, I love my kids more than anything in the world, it's just nice to have that break every once and a while from the parental responsibilities) And just think, that will give you an excuse to book another cruise to take him on to surprise him with later!!


I can't wait to read this whole trip report...I'm so jealous...I miss DCL so much and I was just there in January!!!

 

[Tink rules]

Ok.....

So how many of us have checked out DCL website to see what's available for the return...

EVEN...

If we know there is NO way we can do it????

I am SO jealous of those on board!!!

I can't wait to hear what they get to do, etc. on this trip!!!

You know... it feels like we're sending our first born off to Kindergarden for the first time!!! We wish we could go with them and we wonder what great things they will experience!!!
