9/26/2010 Breezin' to the Bahamas!

[JenGC]

I had the Scopolamine stuff only mine was in rub on form to the wrist...not in patches behind the ear. Seriously, I took EVERYTHING under the sun I could think of! I took Pepto, Scopolamine, Meclizine, Phenergan! LOL All the meclizine did was make me sleep. I was actually on my way to the First Aid place cause I couldn't even move I was so miserable! I found the Meclizine tablets outside the door so I took some....all they did was make me sleep our ENTIRE 2nd at Sea day! UGH UGH UGH! That night, I discovered the sea bands in the gift shop. I put them on and viola! 10 minutes later, I was fine! Isn't that crazy?! Wish I would have found those suckers closer to the beginning of the cruise!! Now I know what I need! I'm putting those on the day before we sail this time!

You're KIDDING me!! I heard they didnt work! hmmmm Maybe I should get some in case the patch doesnt work. Where do you find them? I dont want to miss a MINUTE of fun on that ship!

I got it on the ship inside the gift shop but I hear they sell them in local pharmacies/Walmart/CVS/Walgreens, etc. It's about $12 per pair! Mine are black...I called them my Richard Simmons sweatbands!

Wow you know how to sell an item! You should go into advertising!

See?

((This is a TERRIBLE picture! I was in bed sick all day! lol))

Oh my goodness!! But hey! If it works, it works. I heard that after 2 days you get your "sea legs" and you don't have to worry about sea sickness anymore.

Oh yeah. One more thing

[laurio]

Hi Jen

Yep..Gabe is my darling grandson...would love to take my puppy with us, but she is so NOT a service dog

For those who suffer from sea sickness...last year I took Bonine the morning of the cruise, another dose right when we boarded....and was fine for the whole cruise. But I plan on bringing the bracelets just in case..can never be too careful!

If you are a DVC member who booked with points there is only 15 days until you can start booking online stuff such as Paolo & Flounders Reef nursery....

Have a happy & safe weekend everyone!

Did I miss anyone?

Are we planning on meeting the first day? I would like to because I am sure there will be many people getting upgrades and purchasing upgrades at the port (I am planning on it!) so I would LOVE to get an updated list then. But I wasnt sure on what the plans were.

One day less to wait than yesterday!!

 

[kmab00]

Sounds great! Last time we went, our group met in the terminal by the TV's! If you get there early enough, you pretty much check in, then wait for your number to be called. It was fun we had a good group of people!

That would be a great idea! I am not sure when we are going to show up. We are planning on staying in Port Canaveral the night before so we can be there anytime. But I dont know when the hotel will shuttle us over there. I have heard 11:00 but who knows! Maybe we can wear dis shirts and meet in the port AND have another gathering point for those that are boarding later. Too much?

 

[kamgen]

sorry..my message posted twice!

 

[kamgen]

Hey everyone!
We are so excited to be joining you guys.
Just a little more about us.
I am Kamy (kamgen on the DIS) and am going to be celebrating my 38th bday on the cruise! My DH is Steve and he is 33yrs old. We have two awesome boys, Ryan will be 5 and Liam will be 3 (almost 4). They are so excited about going on the big ship! LOL! My mom lives with us and will be sailing with us too! We moved from Michigan to Florida in April and love being near the mouse! We are also DVC members!
This will be my 10th DCL cruise, yay I will be a platinum castaway club member after this one! All 5 of us sailed in 2007 for the first time as a family so the boys dont remember any of it. They are really excited about Pirate night! Arrgghhh!
We are on deck 5, cant remember our staterooms right now, they are written down somewhere!
We plan on getting to port by 11am and being ready to get our vacation started! Would love to meet up at the port. We have done that in the past and it works out great. If not, then we could meet before the lifeboat drill onboard. We did that once before too. Met by the Mickey Pool!
Whatever works!
Okay, enough rambling! Cant wait to meet everyone!
