ALASKA - August 30th, 2011 - Mickeys Mooseketeers & the last Alaskan Cruisade!

[geffric]

I'm Wondering if anyone will transfer from the Magic's 2011 Med cruises as it seems they're messing around with late August itineraries...

HM. maybe.. but.. i think that the Med is warm and we are going cold, or at least colder..

SO DH feels that the cruise is too far away to think about it

BUT last night he suggested that since I will be at WDW next week, that I can pick up some things for FISH Extender gifts for the cruise.. good idea!!! How many shall I get??

It's really hard to know at the moment. I have kept an up to date list on the first post, which is everyone who has joined this thread so far and the one's marked FE have said they want to join in the fish extender. Hope that helps a little.

I guess I have accepted the college situation..

yesterday when I got home from work, I clean DS#1 ( Geoff's) room... put things aways, cleaned the top of his desk and dresser, ( I did notice a lot of contacts.. maybe he will have to wear his glasses) did laundry especally his blanket and vaccumed.. it looks so nice now..

so I guess he is gone at least until May..

DS#2 got his ACT results.. it was a practice one to let him know when he needs to study...although I sent the results to IA, IN, ILL and OHIO State - the real one will be in April.. already got a nice letter from IN re
garding receiving the scores..

I am home today. putting off shoveling the driveway again.. guess I'll clean and do some laundry. Tonight will be busy with BSA and tomorrow I work at both jobs..

We are thinking about transferring this trip to the Dream. We could do a 5 day double dip with a stay at WDW before and/or after for our anniversary in early August. Still haven't decided. I still want to do Alaska, but the airfare to Vancouver is outrageous. Maybe watching the Olympics will convince me it is worth it.

Helloooooo cruisers!

My name is Jennifer and I'm from Maine, if you couldn't tell by my ID. My parents, Everett & Jeanette) & I (35) will be joining you on the last Alaskan Cruise and are as excited as you can be 580+ days out. We'll be in stateroom 6550 and as we're sharing a room this time (it's cheaper and I have to keep an eye on my mother) we'll be fighting over who gets to hang their fish extender outside the door.

In 2004 we did a 4-night cruise with other family members and in 2008 my parents and I were on the 15-night EB Panama Canal Cruise with Terri & Susan, though the 15-night turned into a 10-night for us as my mom got sick and we had to jump ship in Aruba. I also did a 7-night western with my nephew in 2005.

We're already planning to fly in early and spend some time in Vancouver. After the cruise, we'll be flying to Disneyland for a couple days too as we didn't get to see or do much before the 15-night cruise.

Not sure how much I'll post for a while as I'm crazy busy with work and planning another vacation, but had to post as I FINALLY remembered my DIS password and haven't been able to get on until recently. Hope you all don't mind, but I'll be taking our ship for a spin 3 weeks from tomorrow. I'm taking my niece (16) and nephew (13) for 4-night cruise during Feb school vacation followed by 2 nights at BCV. <sigh> It's not long enough but any Disney Cruise is better than no Disney cruise!

Cheers!

Jennifer

That's a shame but lovely if your kids wanna join you...

The Dream looks fab, I can understand how it would be tempting to switch.

I'm having some doubts TBH - I have just spent a week in the Alps and had the most miserable time! My DH is desperate to do this cruise but I'm concerned I won't enjoy it... Oh well, plenty of time to make a proper decision..

Hi everyone!! I dont know when the last time I was on here was....we have had so much going on with Thanksgiving, birthdays, anniversary, Christmas and New Years.....we snuck in a very quick weekend trip to Walt Disney World on December 5. It was cold and rainy!!! I had forgotten all about it being Walt's birthday that day. Then 2 weeks ago my mother in law died of double peunomonia. So needless to say, I have not slowed down long enough to get on the DIS.

I am gonna go back and read, but looks like we have new members and may have lost or will be losing some of you.

I need to check the Facebook page to see if we have new members there.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Talk to you all soon
