9/26/2010 Breezin' to the Bahamas!

[magic2go]

Hey! I'm just trying to be patient with 60 days left to go! AHHH!

Although I've check 4 times today, DCL still hasn't assigned us a stateroom number Not for lack of trying on my part!!

BUT, a Palo reservation did open up! So now we've got dinner at 8:30p on our Nassau day!

AND, I can't wait for the mail man to get here (tomorrow maybe??) so I can get my fabulous FE from Jen!! I've very excited to see it in person. Hopefully I can hold off and wait for the whole family before opening it!! We'll see how that goes!!

So those of you who will be in the Florida area on Saturday, where are you staying? We haven't made a reservation yet and can't decide between the Port Orange area or the port area.

We are staying at a friend's house! :0) We did stay at the Hyatt Orlando Airport last time and it was very nice and very easy for transportation to the port!

I found our stateroom # finally! #7619

We are starting our trip at the Hard Rock for Friday and Saturday, on boat Sunday thru Thursday....then Animal Kindgdom villas until Sunday.

I made the decision to rent a car, for the entire time. This way, I didn't need to carry car seats, store them etc.

After month...and I mean months....of shopping, I just got a hot wire rate of $223.00, entire time for a FULL SIZE!!!! Now, the best part is that I got Alamo. I have always been able to snag a minivan since they mix the rows.

I am so ready to go!!!

I tried to divide it into decks in half, group one being deck 8-6 and group two in decks 2-5. I have a bunch that are still in GTY rooms. Let me nail down who is definitely in or definitely out of the FE and then I will just assign someone to a group because people will be moving after this anyway with upgrades and such.

Can I get a "yes" or "no" for the families that I am not sure on please? It would make this a little easier.

Thanks!
Jen

I am good with what ever is decided however; I have a question. I already bought for the entire list. I am assuming it will be OK for me to drop items into all FE's....correct? I must deliver to all the kids!!!

Question for you all....have you heard of Tastykake's?? I posted on face book, asking my friends what they think of in reference to PA. THis is the number one post. So, I am thinking....really....do the rest of you live a sheltered life and never had a Krimpet????

Let me know.....this may be an add on gift since I already did my FE gifts.

I think tastykakes are a PA thing we were in maine over the weekend and noone ever had one
we are from Bethlehem Pa and thought that was really funny

OK for the dinning list so far, the only person that I have down that wants to sit together is Paragd911 and us. I have been having problems keeping up with the lists. Is anyone else wanting to sit together? We are in second dining but anyone on first dining can do it too. I just need reservation number when I call DCL to link them.

Thanks!! I sooooooo cant wait.

tikimimi-I am glad you guys are having fun! I just wish I was with you

We are on first dining...anyone else with kids looking to buddy up? Mine are 13, 8 and 6. I will give fair warning, my 2 little ones are a handful ......if you chose us, do not feel guilty moving after the first meal

I've heard of Tastykakes but never Krimpets. Are they similar?

Well, at least nobody can say they weren't warned. I love your honesty!!!

Hey! Is your 13yr old a boy? or girl? We also have a 13 yr old (girl) and our son is 10! And fair warning about our kids as well! Too bad we're on second dining or I'd take you up on it!

I saw them - a lot like Hostess cakes - Twinkies, I think. Little Debbie is another brand down here. https://shop.tastykake.com/b2c/b2c/...rea=2&ctype=areaDetails&carea=0000000007)/.do

I'm so excited, I just can't hide... I have been FE shopping and got found some really cool stuff. I just can not wait.

I am still undecided on my hotel accommodations. I think we will arrive on Sat. Stay near the port, and I think I wanna do one disney park when we get back. My concern is what we will do once we arrive in Florida on Sat to pass the time, and then what hotel and park to do once we return....


Urgh, I should have used a travel agent. I booked our trip myself, but now in need of someone with some expertise on the pre-and post. If any of you have any suggestions, please feel free to share.
