9/7/06 10 night Wonder Southern Caribbean "Cruising in WONDERland!"

[smola09's mom]

Sandy, I am so happy for you that your SIL returned home safe and sound.

I am off to find gifts for fish extenders after football practice tonight. Hopefully, I will have good luck.

I am getting so excited about this trip. I can not believe how close we are. I have so much to do as I am sure everyone else does too.

My DS14 is going through his clothes right now to see what fits and does not fit. I am hoping his suit and other dress clothes all fit.

Sandy, I am so happy for you that your SIL returned home safe and sound.

Ditto, Sandy. Both your SIL and DD have made great sacrifices so that we all can remain safe. We owe the military a BIG debt of gratitude.

Welcome aboard to our newcomers .Send me a PM if you would like a door magnet (see website for instructions).

Shelby's pics are soo cute, Steve! Made me pull out the 1st B-Day pics for my youngest. He too had a fondness for cake in the hair .

I'm a bit worried that I'm duplicating others with my fish extender gifts. I know we all want them to be a surprise, but I can't help thinking my ideas are not that original.

We're almost down to a month... Might even get me cabin assignment next week !

My DS14 is going through his clothes right now to see what fits and does not fit. I am hoping his suit and other dress clothes all fit.

That's what we're doing at this house. Dh and I went this afternoon to buy him a Tux. This weekend he is supposed to go through all of his shorts to see what works and what doesn't.... And I have to do the same with 8ds & 26ds.

I've bought enough cute custom Disney clothes off Ebay to keep 5dd looking cute all through the Cruise! I do need to find her a pretty *fancy* dress for the Formal nights.

I know what you mean.... Pirana and I bought something the other night - when we bought the fabric for the Fish Extenders. But, I need to find a few other things....

Good evening everyone,

I just booked this cruise...last evening...

It will be me, Dolores
my daughter Ally age 4
my friend Lisa
her daughter mcKinley age 8

Our hubbies aren't coming on this one!!

I thought I would try to read through the posts...but there are 129 pages!!

Can anyone catch me up somewhat on the fun...I am looking forward to meeting new Disney lovers...and cruising peoples!

I did notice a sail away party...what can I bring?? LOL...I also read something about door signs...where do I get them? How much $ are they?

Not much time for planning here!

Dolores

 

[sandysplayhouse]

I just want to say Thank You to everyone for the Welcome Home and Well Wishes for my SIL & DD. And yes, we are all very proud of him. He is such a wonderful young man. We are so grateful and thankful to God for his safe return home. I can’t tell you how stressful this tour has been for my DD. I went thru 13 months of this with my DH during Viet Nam (over 30 something years ago)… but this seemed 10 times worse because my heart would break for her each time we heard of something frightful happening to his unit and I would see the fear and worry in her face. I thank God he is home safely… Unfortunately, we have to go thru this again next year when he returns for a second tour.



For now, they are both just ecstatic to be together again. We are all SO Proud of him.

 

[Tinkerme1]

Hello all you Disney Wonder cruisers.

My girlfriend just booked this cruise, and asked if I would come along for all the Disney fun. How could I say, "no"?

I love the Disney Wonder ship. We've cruised three times on the Wonder and had a great time.

Our names are:

Celia San Diego, CA 57 (don't have particulars since we are a

guarantee right now)

Chris Chicago, IL ? ?

Can't wait to meet all of you onboard. It won't be long now.

 

[MerryMeeting]

Does anyone know about the wireless capability of the Wonder?

Are the prices outrageous?

Need to bring my laptop...

Thanks for any information.

We're glad to have you here! The Sail Away party is just us all meeting on the deck to have fun.

We are going to do other things -- Ladies Lunch, Wine tasting party, Fish extenders, etc... Some are getting together for excursions. I have a link in my siggy that has information about us and this cruise.

You will have SO MUCH FUN onthis cruise. We took our first Disney Cruise in Oct '05 and now this will be our 3rd!

 

[smola09's mom]

Welcome to the newbies. It looks like this cruise is really filling up quickly. We are all going to have such an awesome time.

Got some great deals on Disney Direct today. We got tropical wear for the entire family. It was a deep discount and I am sure we will get a great picture in these outfits.

We are off to do more cruise/school shopping today. Hope we find even more great deals.

Celia, I'll add you to the roster since you gave us all your info.


It looks like we are getting quite a group!

Dh is going to try (once again) to convince one of my DB's to come with us - we have room for 4 other people, total. I'm nto sure our 23dd would want him to come since we would add him to her room!

 

[Stepht5]

Please PM me if you need to change information or if you need to add or subtract information!!!

DO I need to add or subtract anyone??? Do you want your stateroom Cat or # added? At one time we had talked about doing a stateroom tour of the different Catagories.

I have tried to keep the list updated. I know there are LOTS of lookers on this thread ---- Please talk now. We want to get to know you!

I'm going to try to keep this post within 5 pgs of the end -- did that make sense? I know there is a link to it on the first post but, I don't think everyone is reading that post.

First Sea Day, noon, at Tritons.

Anyone else want to join us?

 

[MerryMeeting]

Thank you guys!!

I was interested in the Beach day thing for Barbados. As Ally is 4 she would be free...is anyone doing this? Did you already book online? I was going to book it online.

 

[Rate Queen]

Welcome to all the Newbies! The more the merrier!
Carol

 

[karylrocks]

Looks like we will be joining you too! Just switched from the 10-day Holiday cruise to this one. Here is our info:

Me - Carol (Karylrocks)
DH - Mike (GoofyDoc)
DS - Bryan(14) - (BlazerFan)

We live in Oregon. We do not have a room assignment yet. We have late dinner seating. I would love to join the Lunch Ladies! Over the next few days I will try to get up to speed with everything.

 

[sandysplayhouse]

JUST 4 more Saturday's to go before our cruise!

to all the newbies... the more the merrier. Can't wait to meet you all at the sail away party.

I've been so jealous of everyone's great bargains, but I haven't had time to shop yet! I still need formal wear for myself! The rest of my family is all set, DH and DS have their tux's and suits...but if I don't get out to the mall, I'll be sitting in the room in my pj's having room service!
Which doesn't sound like a bad idea either!

Tomorrow we are going to Disneyland with DD & DSIL to ride Pirates and buy whatever pirate trinkets we can find!

 

[ricka47]

On the Magic, dinner was available in Topsiders. While we've never had dinner in anything but the main dining room(s) my parents, who are sailing with us, sometimes use the buffet options.

But, I've read that the BBB on the Wonder is not open for dinner? Perhaps that will change will the longer cruises?

 

[GoofyGuy777]

Good Morning!

Welcome all new people! Karylrocks Family, MerryMeeting Family, Tinkerme1 Family, Amlee Family, ricka 47 Family, leira1989 Family, and a welcome to our thread to Frogjelly & Pirana (Stepht5's Kids). Sorry if I forgot anyone

Check out page one of our thread for up to date details or you can visit Wan's website at http://www.miramont.com/disneywonder/index.html

For those of you that have missed my friend "Diznylnd" and I have made some video to get everyone excited for the cruise.

Thanks for all the great comments about Shelby...She can't wait to meet everyone. She had awesome B-day at Disneyland. She got to meet Mickey and Minnie that made her day.

Sandy - I can't believe that only four more Saturday till we all get to meet each other. My gosh how times flies.

Stepht5- What time is the party/wine tasting in the Cat 1 room....(still harassing you about that) . I hope you can convince you DB to come . (why would need to convince anyone to come on a Disney Cruise .... ) on by the way...great job on keeping that roster up. That must just be a full time job!

Time to go shopping. My DW and Diznylnd(Kirsty) have been shopping away. I guess going on a cruise gives you ladies an excuse to "shop".... I guess I need to buy some clothes too. I guess a pair of jeans and a Hawaiian shirt wouldn't cut it on the cruise. Happy shopping and have great weekend everyone!!

Hey Steve,

So do you still want to go to the ladies lunch at Tritons????

You know that you love to go shopping! Your DW and I need a chauffer.


Have a great weekend to everyone else.

If Steve does not post on Monday it's becasue we have exhausted him with all of our shopping. He has to deal with 4 girls today (me, DW, Shelby and Juliette). He's gonna need this cruise. LOL
