Good Evening, I have been lurking on forum threads seeing if I missed anything Does anyone know if Ducky Williams will be on board with us??? I have sailed with him two out of two times. I am hoping for three out of three.

He was very good we checked in next to him at LA on the non USA resident line, so he isint orginally from USA, its like a working- holiday for him so its down to his plans.

A lot of the artwork for the picture of the panama cruise with DL and WDW used on menues and t shirts on this cruise was drawn by him.

I and my kids would love to see him again but I bet it will not be annonced in advance.

Many, many, many posts ago I believe I read somethng from UK Andrew about doing a dolphin excursion on Puerto Vallarta? I don't believe it was in a lagoon but he said his family really enjoyed. Maybe by 08/08 there will be dolphins at CC???

I quoted mine at Cici In Acapulco, but there is one at Puerto Vallarta as well.

Hey Crash - The Beast is my all time favorite coaster. Such great brain sweat went into that ride. Where'd you get the picture from the top of the first hill? (and the back is best!)

I just googled the image. I have yet to visit and ride any of their coasters. I enjoy them ... even though I've not ridden many in the past decade.

Fancy runnin' inta you at this hour an minute of the morning! I have a brief bit of insomnia so I wuz wanderin' through the postings I missed earlier today...

 

[captaincrash]

I still love the imagery of that spectacle in my brain

 

[captaincrash]

It sounds like a lot of us are planning DL before the cruise. We're definitely planning on flying out Friday and spending Saturday at DL. It would be loads of fun to have a pre-cruise DIS meet. Maybe we could all ride Pirates together at the park?

I can see it now... and please remember to count US in for the gathering too!

Oy... is Rugby a "high impact" sport? uhoh....

From the "little" bit I've seen of it on TV, it sure looks that way!!!

Some of you may remember the rant I went on about Shutters a few THOUSAND posts back - hahaha. Well, now I am even more mad because we just got back from the Western cruise Feb 3 and I have not had a chance yet to get everything put away and such. Finally got to our pics that we purchased on board and our picture with Jack Sparrow - the only one I really wanted and made sure we got - well the date should be Jan31 BUT it reads Jan 9 I am writing a letter to DCL. DH filled out the comment card and mentioned the trouble we had with Shutters but now I am mad and DCL will be dealing with me now. On our next cruise unless Shutters has drastically changed their procedures I plan to have DH take our camera - we will take our own pics! Anyone else ever had the dates mixed on their pics?

Good Morning Everyone!

I saw that we were nine down so I am adding my two cents to keep us on top!

I read a few pages back regarding DL hotels. I am perplexed as to where to stay. At WDW I neve have an issue. I use the Magical Express to get to the hotel and Disney Transportation to get to the parks and Downtown Disney. We plan on going out a few days earlier like the 13th so I am assuming I will be renting a car. Does Disney offer transportation to DL hotels. Is the walk not to far to the parks. Also, isa Disney providing transportation to the port or do we have to find our own way.

The Disneyland Hotel sounds nice but so do the other too.
Can anyone give me some info on what to do.

Thanks!

Last repo in 2005 I booked an Disneyland add on with the cruise, it came out a few months after the release of the cruise, a pre or post DL stay in one of the three Disney hotels, and tickets for three days included. It was a good price.

Then there was DCL transfers, you could order.

• Airport><Port
• Airport><DL
• DL>< Port.
• Sellect days.

I did the DL>port one and it was on a Disneyland coach and they handled all luggage from your room to the ship.

I stayed at the Grand Californian hotel it is in a good location and had aDCL enquiry desk every morning.

Thanks Andrew for the info! I knew I could count on another matey for information.

Have a good day!!

Update!
Please refer to post 18394 for rugby rules, culture and playing positions.

Going to pass this on to DH, see if he's interested. He used to play unorganized Rugby in college (just a bunch of the guys and drinks). I have a friend from college who used to live in HB, Bch 131st St, her family still lives there. It is right where that plane crashed after 9/11, the house behind her and next door burned to the ground, they were very lucky.

GC is awesome, we stayed there in 2005 when we did the Mexican Riviera cruise, we will probably stay there again. Convenient to everything and we had a room overlooking California Adventure - practically walk out your door and everything is right there. Great hotel, reminds of WL in WDW.

We were also able to find an excellent limo service when we were there, and we still have the info. I will get the info from DH and post if anyone is interested.
