Any Magic Halloween Cruisers 2003 out there?

[dzneprincess]

Hi all,
sorry havent been posting much. we all have the crud over here All the kids have had it, and I guess I was bound to get it

Ginger, yes I am staying at the Rad and will be more than happy to help you make strawberries! Right now I cant think about how good they may be, for fear of getting sick

I am very happy though I just took advantage of the new package from Disney for Visa card holders, kids play free. I am getting 5 days and 4 nights at POPcentury, and UPH for 2 adults and 2 children for less than $900! That is a Great deal!

I cant believe how close we are to sailing! I still have soo much to do, and it looks like I will be out of commission for at least another day. Ginger you say you have extra treat bags? I have extra treats to put in them, but I hate to buy a whole bag of 40 for just 2 extra. If you have them I could use them

Dena, make sure and let us know when you find out if it is a boy or a girl!


Carolyn I forget to also tell you thanks for making the name tags! Thats a great idea!

Oh my Gosh we have had the crud too My 2 year old has slept about 4-5 hours over the last 2 nights and none during the day. I planned on getting to bed early tonight to get a jump on his fever bumping up again or congestion medication wearing off but then my MIL calls just now and told me she can not find her birth certificate. Mind you she is a wonderful and sweet, sweet lady but I have been "reminding" her since January. I left her a vm the other day reminding her to pack it and she called me tonight and said she can't find it. I posted on the DIS plus did a Google search and it looks like she can drive to Raleigh and get one in person or worse case order a $$$ from one of the quick turn around places She did not seem to believe me when I told her DCL would not let her on without one and a certified copy..........so much for the early jump on my sickie toddler now I get to worry about this.........................hope everyone is well, can't wait but now I am a little worried

I was tring to post the other night while they were working on the boards. I kept hitting the submit button, nothing was happening. As a result I got multi post.

Amanda you poor girl. I am so sorry to hear that everyone is ill, but better now than in 2 weeks. Don't think about those strawberries till then. I don't want you to feel any worse. Get Better Soon.
I got that letter from Visa, sounds like a great deal. When are you going?
We are going to be at WDW in January for Ashley's 7 birthday. Jan. 18-24 staying at Old Key West. I didn't use Visa's deal, use our DVC points to pay for a 2 bedroom condo. I've racked up enough of the Disney Visa reward point to pay for a 5 day pass for Ashley. Some of Bill's siblings will be joining us, it should be fun.

Dena, I was think a little pink surrong(sp?) would be a nice present for your new baby. Can't wait to hear either.

Hi all, Getting more and more excited! Can't wait to finally meet all of you! (Jan, wish you were coming too!)

We've been a bit under the weather here too. Had to take Katie to the doctor last week. She has been really congested, and has such a bad cough. She's getting better, but still has coughing fits.

Sure wish we could join you all at the Rad. Sounds like fun . I love choc. covered strawberries!!

Guess I need to scoot off to bed, it's getting pretty late.

I just typed a whole post and lost it before I could push the "post " button! ARGGGGGG!!!

Just wanted to say hi - Carolyn, I sent you a PM -

Rae, any news on an upgrade for you?

Karen, just get that chocolate here any way you can!!! Although, I am sure my DH will snag it from my daughter - Especially if it is Cadbury -

All those sickies out there - better now than while on the cruise - Hope you all are feeling better soon!! Drink some orange juice and just take it easy!!!

Till next time,

Karen

 

[KEH]

Hmmm, Karen, sounds like he might need his own bar!! (Chocolate not alcoholic)

Ladies High Tea still planned for the Thursday. Any more takers? I will post what I think is the list early next week so let me know as soon as possible. Don't know how much time I'll have on here next week as we fly to WDW on the 17th and nothing is packed yet!!!

Hope all of you are feeling better. Emma is a bit under the weather as well. I prescribe some sunshine and a cruise.

Karen

Spent 90 minutes on the phone with DVC - was it too much to think that the person on the other end understood what I was saying about wanting the same type room (Plexiglass rail - not solid) due to child safety issues?

Finally, he comes back with another room - again with a solid balcony and I have to explain it all over again about plexiglass. He seems a bit put out and says, "I am doing my best to accomodate you." And I said, "I didn't ask to be moved from the room I specifically booked a year ago - I'd prefer 5622."

Time passes.....finally he returns and acts like I should fall down on my knees to him because he tells me that I am now "upgraded". Before he got another word out, I say, "That doesn't matter to me - I'd rather 5622 than 8030 anyday." And I mean it. I really do like 5622 better!

So he tells me that I can have 7620 - the room that Paul and Kaye are still in!!! Now how can they fit all of us in that room?!
And why are they offering it to me when people are still in it?

He leaves and returns with a selection of two rooms (7594 and 7598) and says, "You are upgraded now and if you make any more changes after this one you will be paying $75.00".

I select 7598 and he repeats the warning so I repeat my statement, "I didn't ask for this change and only want what I had - plexiglass." He repeats his warning again to me and I say, "It wasn't my idea to change, it was DCL's." Okay, am I talking to a recording or a person since he AGAIN repeats this warning......

Okay, now I'm in 7598 and get an e-mail from Paul that he and Kaye have been moved also to 7594. So things do work out with faith and persistance and lots of time on HOLD!

Okay, we are in for T and T -

ALSO, the source of my "potty mouth" and "stress" has been eliminated from my life with one bold signature - Jynx has departed! She never did "take" to me and I just got fed up with her teeth, ears, eyes and attitude....

So now it's only the palomino gelding "Cheyenne" and Michael and I are both happier!!! Yes, I'll get a new picture up sooner or later!

Happier trails!
Rae

Would it be possible for someone from this cruise to bring back updated Western navigators? Much appreciated

 

[laurenk]

Rae- Glad everything finally worked out with your room. Just remember "If you change it after today, you will be charged $75.00"

I am in 6108, is that plexiglass? I hope so, or I will have 2 kids overboard.

The only one sick here so far has been me. Really bad head cold and cough. Have been pumping family with Zicam, Echenesea(Spelling?), and Vitamins. My kitchen counter looks like my bedroom. Hope everyone gets healthy before our cruise!!

According to what I see, YEP it is plexiglass!!!

 

[rocadonismom]

Karen H. I responded to your PM with the needed info. Thanks!

Rae - So glad to hear you got what you wanted. Well, sort of. It's crazy that they gave you such a hard time about it.

Sorry to hear that so many are sick, but it is good that you are all getting over it now. Sending out best wishes for healthy families.

Dena - if you can't go with the pink sarong how about a little sailor's hat? Can't wait to hear!

UUUgh, I can't believe how much there still is to do. I really have to get my act together.

QUESTION - Dad wants to know if anyone is a pin collector.

Okay the time has come to say goodbye. Must go get ready for work!

 

[rae519]

Life is too short to be a complaining whiner - so now that it's OVER, it's over!!!

Just getting excited about leaving on 10/19 - heading first to Atlanta then to Universal at Orlando - see you all at the Port bright and early on Sat AM -

ALSO, has anyone finished packing?

Karen, are we parasailing at CC?
I'm in if you are. Don't laugh at my "waterproof Depends", okay?

Rae

 

[Verandah Man]

Yes, go parasailing, you will enjoy it!!!
