Any Magic Halloween Cruisers 2003 out there?

["Ginger"]

the Disney Magic was a big floating germ factory.
Crusing when we are we all should not forget to pack the Cold and Flu Meds also Imodium AD. Lots of antibacterial hand wipes and instant hand sanitizer.
Don't forget to wash your hand often aboard the ship. Nothing worse then being sick on vacation.

Carolyn1023 I keep forgetting to tell you that I think your name tags is a great idea.

Thank goodness, it sounds like I won't be the only one with chicken drumstick legs when they emerge in a pair of shorts!

I was wondering about the party favours too and where she was planning to put them, but I also decided that it might prove to be too much information.

I found us on page 3. YIKES!

Chicken drumsticks hmmmmmmm . . .

Just better make sure that those drumsticks don't look like they landed in the fryer after the first few days of cruising.

No problem like that here, we are just now leaving shorts weather in Ohio.

My problem tends to be with that "overstuffed turkey" look above the drumsticks, but it does make a nice shelf to rest a cold drink or the suntan lotion on.

I'll have to pass all these great ideas on to my wife - although I am wondering how many bags I will have to pack to get it all on board.

There don't happen to be any more Brown's fans out there are there? (ladies, ask your husbands). I wonder if there is anyone else I can drown my sorrows with after this weekend, or who shares my misery.

Jhalkias - not a Browns fan here (also not a guy but, very into football so I hope it's okay if I answer you). Just forget this week happened and keep dwelling on the fact that they beat San Francisco. Next week can be a ray of hope too because Pittsburgh hasn't been playing to their potential.

Does anyone know what the new ESPN area will be like or where? I'll need to get updates on Sunday while on the ship (at the very least). Not sure if Jhalkias will let me hang with him or the guys since "my" team (Patriots) is playing the Browns (I cheer for New England and Dallas).

 

[Jhalkias]

OK Carlolyn,

Sorry I sounded sexist. My wife is a big football fan too, just not as big as me. Of course, how can you be anything but growing up in Canton, OH? I'm wondering about that ESPN area too - is the skybox gone??? We have Brown's season tickets, and let me tell you, since we have come back to the NFL, it has been nothing but UGLY for the most part. The only real exciting game was last year's game against the Falcons where we had a chance and did make it to the playoffs with a win.

I just took a halftime break from MNF.

Patriots and Cowboys huh . . .

Don't like the Patriots because of Bill Belichek. Liked the Cowboys when they took Bernie Kosar to the Superbowl after the aforementioned Belechek cut him from the Browns. Dallas is OK - one of our local HS boys Jamar Martin is on the team - was injured last year as a rookie.

I assume he still made Parcel's roster.

One of the reasons we booked this cruise was the away game for the Brown's on the 26th, and bye week the next week.

Not a Brown's fan but still need to drown my sorrows. We are Jets fans. Need I say anymore?

 

[paulmc80]

Someone mention drowning the sorrows of an NFL fan? Oh boy! Let me tell you I've been there! WAy, way, way down there! I'm a 27 year Buccaneers fan and hasn't been a team much more sorrowful then they were at times. But I survived! Waiting for the roller coaster to start back down. LOL

So, all you fans going through tough times with your teams hang in there!

I think on the cruise I'll probably be just checking in for the games scores on that Sunday. Oh yeah ... surrreeeeee .. LOL

I was reading this thread...but it's so lonnnnnnnnnnnng...
I guess it's a good thing.

We are sailing with our children and my sister-in-law and brother-in-law with their two children. I was reading through the post and thought the halloween TOT to be a wonderful idea.
Are we all to late to be added to the list? I know it's kind of last minute, but we also would be handing out.
Let us know and I'll give you our stateroom numbers.
Thank you and see you all on the cruise!!!

 

[dzneprincess]

Well "Ginger" is officially in charge of the TOT list, and we all agreed to set the cut off date at Sept 21 to allow time to purchase our goodies, but I do believe that 2 children pulled out. I am not quite certain however. ANywho, welcome aboard! Ginger will chime in and let you know for sure.

 

[martel-luv-wdw]

With everything going on with DMOMS cancer and having to upgrade to a handicap room. want the next 25 days to go by fast.

Doucia a brand new member has asked

Are we all to late to be added to the list? I know it's kind of last minute, but we also would be handing out.

This question is for everyone participating.

I for one have not made up any goodies bags. We make ours once aboard the ship. But I know some of you have.

 

[martel-luv-wdw]

What should I do,

Got docs. flight info, not great.

We have one hour to change in Atlanta. We get on a plane with 58 rows. We are row 52. Arrives at 12:56. Last DCL bus leaves at 1:45 for the port. WILL WE MAKE IT/luggage?????????

We have traveling DH, DW, DS(7) DGM (handicap with a walker)

We booked everything though DCL. Thought that would be best.

Help/tell me every will be O.K.
Can't wait Linda

 

["Ginger"]

Linda you'll make it with time to spare. BUT, just incase something happens to you all in route there is a 1-800 number in your docs. You call that number ASAP. DCL will be waiting for you to get off the plane. They will take you through the airport get your luggage or will be holding your luggage if it arrives before you. Make sure you put the DCL luggage tags on all your bags. Then they'll put you on a bus to the port. Just remember Linda the ship doesn't sail till 5:00pm.
BTW get DGM a wheel chair at the airports. Call DCL and see if they can arrange that for you.

We missed our plane once so I know all this info. first hand.

On one of our cruises they actually held the ship up for some late comers, not us.

Don't worry you'll be fine.

 

[Jhalkias]

We don't have our treats yet either.

My 2 cents is to let the other two children onto the list. I know there have to be cutoffs, and Ginger has done a lot of work keeping it up, but I just hate to say no to any little ones that show up!

 

[laurenk]

Ginger- In regard to your question, I say"The more the merrier", but I do understand if people are all set with their treats.

I started to "pack" today....VERY overwhelming for this first time cruiser. My room looks like a bomb hit it. It will take until our sail date to get this under control

carole- LOVED Mars 2112!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had the BEST time in NYC. WTC was very unsettling. Saw my friends name up on the hero's list Did you get my pm before we left?

Question for all of you past Halloween cruisers. Do you pack tank tops, or is it too cool? What about Orlando afterwards? We will be at RPR for 4 days after the cruise. Last year we had ALL kinds of temps. @ the same time at WDW.

Also, for my friend Donna... Who does everyone use for shuttle services? She needs to get from airport to Radisson, then from ship to WDW, then form WDW to airport, with her DH going from ship to airport.

Thanks!
Lauren

 

[paulmc80]

We have goodies to be handed out, and then some, and can always add on more real easy!

We have always used Tiffany Towncar ourselves when not using just a Mears shuttle or DCL bus for transportation. So far never had a problem.
