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

[Stepht5]

I'm getting a little confused though. Is there someplace on the "website" where lists are being made of when/where/who will be showing up for what? If I only had to print out one page, that would be lovely! My head is swimming with dates and times. LOL!

The website in my sig line has info on the different gatherings. It doesn't include the lists of names -- I am keeping up with all the names! LOL!

Right now the *gatherings* include --
Sail Away party Deck 10
Ladies Lunch Triton's noon on first Sea Day
Wine Tasting party 3pm on second at Sea Day in StephT5's stateroom

I beleive that you & Chris are signed up for all of them!

Kirsty - thanks for sharing your presentation, it was awesome and got me so excited. Your daughter is beautiful and very photogenic.

Thanks so much, she is very good about letting me take pictures of her. She saw a pin with a camera on it and said "hey thats you mom". I guess I always have my camera!

What is a fish extender?

 

[Tinkerme1]

Okay, I'm becoming a sewing maniac now. I've got Pirate costumes and fish extenders on my list of things to do. LOL!

Is everyone dressing up for Pirate's Night? Do you make or buy your costumes?

 

[bearette]

I am going shopping today to find some new shorts for the trip. Not that I need more clothes, but I don't want to do laundry if I don't have to on vacation. Plus it is always nice to have something new to wear on vacation. I normally don't pack until it gets closer to the trip, but I am so excited and bored that I might start packing today. I am a substitute teacher and my district doesn't go back until Septemeber so I am at home. I am getting my credential, but I don't start back for that until after the cruise. I am not used to all this free time so I am spending way to much time on line researching this trip.

I know my whole family (Stepht5) is dressing up to the nines!
My DB8 said "You can never have too many pirate costumes!"
So us girls have Pirate/Wench costumes my mom bought on E-Bay, and the boys have pirate shirts! We are one big pirate family!

 

[Amlee]

That's great -- will you be abe to bring homemade wine on board? My grnadma used to make dandilion wine! And blackberry wine!

I don't think I'll have a problem with it at all. LOL I've had both. Let's see he has some strawberry, grape, scupanon(sp) and peach. I'm not sure which type I'll bring, but I will.

 

[winnyis]

OK we are all set for the wine tasting - DH just got back from the local vineyard with a blueberry wine he said was really really good. Now all we have to do is refrain from drinking it for the next 4 weeks - LOL.

I cant believe that tomorrow is 4 weeks til we sail.

 

[Amlee]

I've got all of my clothes ready to go. All I need is for the date to get here!!

The Second at Sea day, Sept 9th at 3pm.
If you don't drink please don't feel like you can't join our party!!! We would love for everyone to come by and visit! I will make sure there are some snacks set up. That is the main reason I would like to get an idea of who all is coming.

Thanks for saying that, and Thanks for hosting this event...
Please include SandysPlayhouse and EnchantedPlayroom to the list of people coming by to do the meet and greet.

It will be so much fun putting faces to all the names.

I posted pics Monday of the ones I made. They are to hang from your *fish* (which is outside your cabin & has a clip) to make it easier for other disers to leave notes, small gifts, etc.... Something that needs to be said again --- if we don't know your room number we can't leave gifts! I want the room in my luggage for new purchases so, I NEED to give away all the gifts we've bought.

On the website that has been made, how about doing a roster of the names that is printable. You can pre-fill out the cabins you already know, for those that don't know thier cabins yet. Just leave it blank. We can then print out the form and bring it to the party. We can then fill in the cabin numbers there.

If you don't have the time and would like. I don't mind doing the form in access and then sending it to who ever is in charge of that website.

LOL it sounds like you might also need one for the wine tasting and the ladies lunchon. All of which I don't mind doing, if you will feed me the information.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Sheez, a lot of catching up today and it has only been 24 hours since I last posted. Is everyone getting excited or what????

 

[mdvasquez]

Okay, I have been officially back to work since Monday, and I cant keep up with the posts.

I am still trying to figure out what wine to bring. I know there are local winerys (dont know if I spelled that right) in St.Augustine, but I dont know if we can purchase that where we live. If I dont find anything local, I have a nice bottle of zinfendel from Italy that I can bring. Good enough since I am Italian!

I havent even thought about packing yet, we still have to get our suitcases out of the attic.

Good evening everyone,

As far as I know Lisa and I would like to join in on the wine and stateroom tour/meet and greet.

I feel out of place being so new here, lol...

We will each bring a bottle of wine...I have a hardside suitcase...so it sould be okay...lol. I don't drink wine...but...that is okay!

My oldest turned 17 today... so we spent the day shopping...we live near some decent outlets and hit a bunch. Jockey was having some silly clearance...10 packs or 3 undies in each (had to buy 10) for only $20...at that price...I can throw them away and have extra room, lol!!!

Still haven't picked up pirate costume stuff...tomorrow and Friday should be pretty quiet here...so I may look into starting that stuff then.

I emailed Occidental about the Pineapple Beach excursion....hoping to do that.

Wan alias queenofthecastle did the wonderful web site. Carol alias ratequeen has a great spread sheet she can e-mail with all the room numbers in order. This will be helpful to deliver goodies. Hope this helps.

Wow, time is really flying. It is so nice to see that this thread has become so active. Everyone seems so excited about the trip.

I vote for the 2nd sea day as well for the wine tasting. I can not wait to share with everyone some of the great wines we have here.

My husband just informed me that we are going to have 2 sets of golf clubs with us. He and my son are golfing while we are in WDW. Hopefully his grandparents who live in Florida will keep the clubs while we cruise. So much for lighter packing.

Has anyone else started to write their letters for school to let them know your kids will be out of town. I must sit down and do this very soon.

Hey...that's only 1:17 CDT!

Crystal,
Do you sleep? Your last post time is 2:17 am!


I should talk, though. I often have difficulties getting to sleep and staying asleep, too.
