April 11, 2010 4 Night Cruise

[jestersgypsy]

Just to let everyone know, I just checked the weather forcast for Nassau. There is only a 30% chance of scattered showers!! When you live in one of the wetest cities in the USA, Mobile, AL., 30% is nothing!!!!! We are looking forward to meeting everyone on Sunday. I can't believe it is also here. All I have to do now is pack!!!!!

I just checked the movies playing. No real surprises. They did not indicate which ones, if any, were in 3D.

G-Force
Old Dogs
Princess and the Frog
When in Rome
Alice in Wonderland
Last Song

Hi! Is anyone else worried about sea lice? Do I need to drive across Denver to go buy "Safe Sea??" Just wondering what you veterans do?

Thanks-
Tonya

In 7 cruises, we've never had to contend w/ the sea lice. I'm not worried. (I probably just jinxed myself)

It seemed like I had so much time to get things done on Monday. Here it is Thurs. already. I've been packing as I've been washing, so I have one suitcase ready. I find if I start to early, I keep adding to it.

Can't wait!!!

Tonya...as far as the door magnets, they are fun to see, but I haven't a creative bone in my body and they end up being more frustration to me. I did LOOK at the magnetic paper at Wal-mart once!! I don't feel left out. We usually get a magnet or two for being DVC members and return cruisers. The only ones you will see on the rooms are the ones from the disboards. I usually only see 5 to 10 decorated doors. So if you can't do them, you will definitely be in the majority. I wish I had more creativity.

Tara- Thanks for the advice about the sea lice. We'll think positive thoughts and say a prayer!! As for the magnets, don't know if we'll have any or not. I am running out of time and still have a weeks worth of stuff to do. We leave tomorrow for a couple of days at the parks before the cruise. Glad to know I won't feel left out.

Are you going to the "meet 'n greet"? If so I will see you there.

Tonya,

Don't worry ... You'll have some magnets.

Rose, is the list on page 4 (or maybe it is on 5 ) complete? I wanted to get an idea of who all to look out for at our Cruise Meet.

Still wish I did the FE but I'll do it next time. Would love to hear what everyone got once the cruise is over.

Tomorrow I pack!!!!!

The updated Meet and Greet list is on Page 10, Post #144.

Thanks, Rose! I am using my iPod touch so navigating is tricky. Thanks for keeping up w/ all the info. and arranging the meet.

 

[Okiegal]

Thanks Rose-

Don't make me look bad with your craftiness!!

We should be at the meet 'n greet!

Ok, I need someone to shed some positive light on this. I just checked weather.com for an update and they say 30% chance of thunderstorms and/or rain every single day of the cruise, even embarkation day!
I am trying to think positive, but this bites!

On another note, we are definitely planning on the meet & greet too!

 

[kandeebunny]

30% in Florida is nothing! We are in Spring which is the start of our rainy season, what they are likely suggesting is showers may blow through the state and out to sea. If the weather the past 2 weeks is any indication, even out at sea we shouldn't see rain for more than an hour before it blows over.

No worries mon it's vacation!

(Honestly I saw this too, and am more worried about the change to a north east wind churning up the water, but hey it's vacation!!!)

 

[Tarabra]

We'll be at the Cruise meets too! I hope. Last time our bus didn't get there until pretty late from the resorts. Unless I can't get my kids out of the pool, we'll be there. Or at least I will try to make it. We haven't posted pics yet of each other. Let me try to find the latest of our family.

 

[kandeebunny]

We probably won't make it to the meet (shopping talk, girl has to have priorities and pearls are it this trip LOL!)

BUT I attached a photo of me, come say hi! (Real name is Kristi)

 

[jestersgypsy]

Hey Everyone,
We will definitely be at the meet and greet! My biggest problem right now is packing my FE gifts!!! I had to change suitcases once already. Don't you know I have my priorities screwed up when it's gifts first, and then clothes.

Can't wait for this trip!!!!!

See you all tomorrow! Pray for sunny skies!

Happy Sailing, Everyone!

Welcome home everyone! Lots of Disney Cruise Withdrawls around here! We had a great time on our first cruise and it won't be our last!! It was fun to meet a few of you at the Meet - great to have friendly faces on board. Made Hannah (who is a little anxious with new things) a lot more comfortable. Thanks to everyone who participated in the FE. Hannah espcially had so much fun with all of it - Noah just liked getting the stuff . I hope everyone had as much fun as we did!!

Jill

 

[Tarabra]

Nice meeting you Jill. I'm sorry I didn't get to the cruise meet the first day. Our flight arrived around 11 and by the time we rented the car, etc. we didn't get to the ship until 2:30!!!! Rush, rush, rush!

We just got home late last night after spending 4 days in the parks. Whew!!! I'll take the cruise anyday. Although even the cruise was busy, busy. The 4 day just doesn't give you enough time. We rebooked a 7 day for next year. Can't wait for that!

More later....
