... ok I know you all are still laughing so hard you can't even type....
so Stephanie disregard the pm I sent you with questions about how many cabins for the Swap... I think I get it now!! It was my ah ha moment for the day!!!

So are you coming over to the pool at the Radisson on Friday night for some pizza and chat time?

What time are you guys getting to the hotel that day? Are you driving or flying?

 

[DisneyPoly]

I'm sooo jealous! Larry wants to see the Shuttle up close and personal but I don't feel comfortable renting a car and driving down there not being familiar with the area. Getting up early to be down there is no problem it's the getting there from the Swan, that is my problem.

There are no more rooms avail at the Radisson to watch it from the beach either.

I even called KSC and they have passes that you can buy to watch the shuttle closer than anyone else. WOW that could be our 1st excursion

We purchased these passes on a recent trip and were able to watch the shuttle launch from inside the Kennedy Space Center (not at the launch site) but at the visitor's park ... it took us 4 HOURS just to get back on the highway ... I don't recommend this option for anyone who is going on this cruise as you will be stressing to the max trying to get to the ship!!!

I'm so glad it's Friday tomorrow!! I am going to look at 3 houses tonight- I hope I like at least 1- we want to move so baaddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I just say OMG!!! I am not even going to attempt to catch up……It seems like everyone is well and in good spirits. I just wanted to chime in and say Hi Nothing really interesting to add. I am getting so nervous now. It feels like the time is getting here so quickly now and I am not going to be prepared.

Stephanie, I have done my part and called DCL to tell them to keep stay/dine

4 hours...WOW! Wonder how this is going to affect us trying to get to the port? Do they close the road down?

I hope not- I'll be walking my luggage to the port ASAP!!

Sitting in 4 hours worth of traffic wouldn't be my ideal way to start vacation!

There were many detours and you weren't allowed to travel passed a certain checkpoint if you didn't have a special ticket...

Hi, everyone! GUESS WHAT?!! I found something for EACH PERSON on the cruise. It's very cute (My kids got some once, and I love it too and use it so it should be good for all ages!). Gotta love EBAY!!! So we will be giving a small something to each of you. I am a happy camper!!!

 

[BethA]

so is $20 what wwe are spending? Do people prefer sports tshirt type things-maybe it's not your team. Or the idea of local soaps-we have that type of thing--which do you prefer-I'd hate to but something and then have the person not want it?

 

[BethA]

please tell me we won't be held up from getting to the port--I had the van picking us up around 10--should I change it-or will everything be done by then

Beth,
We could bring 'Six Pack' shirts! I don't think the Baltimore fans would appreciate it,thou

On another note...I just re-tried on the bathing suit I bought..UGH! I need to get serious about losing my extra lbs!

[disneydreamer82]

Woohoo!!!!!I just called the Radission to confirm our shuttle even though I have already done this once, they probably think I am crazy lol I need to hear them say "Yes we have you in the system", helps calm my nerves, and get me excited all over again!!! I think I am just making sure this isn't alll a dreamAnd I AM going on the Magic in 37 days yeah!!!!!!!
