Ok, I did my postcards and I filled out our docs. I am ready.

Our post cards are done too, I printed up the info for our family and last night Andrew (4 y/o) helped me tape it to the backs of our postcards. I made up 15. That's enough, right Phrebert?

I made up 15 postcards, too. I printed our info on stickers. First time I have made labels with my Mickey print shop.

Ok post cards are done. Lets go! I can't wait any longer. That DCL special on the Travel channel got me so excited, I even found hidden mickeys in my dinner last night!

 

[plutojudy]

Hidden Mickey fever. I even search the stained glass windows at church looking for Hidden Mickeys.

We've got them!!!!Yeah!!!! Picked up our docs at AAA today. No upgrade but we had waitlisted for one of the less obstructed secret porthole cabins and had cleared for that way back in May 03, maybe thats why they didn't upgrade us-no matter we're going! I'm happy to be on deck 5 -right close to the Oceaneers Club.

We got a voucher for 3 free soda mugs by booking w/AAA. Now I need to get all my separately booked stuff together. Air sch.,car rental, htl and cruise. It was in the high 60's today but will turn cold & rainy for the rest of the week. It may never be Spring here. Florida weather,I can't wait for it.

I am useless at work--I can only think of this cruise.

I posted this but does anyone know from experience--do they have veggie burgers at Topsiders or Plutos?
I'm so excited-its like I've never cruised before.

Edina,
We are staying on Deck 5 near you in an inside cabin. Should be a great location according to those here who have stayed there in the past!

 

[Tandyc]

Hey! We can have a deck 5 party! We are in 5005 way forward inside. Glad to be on the club floor, but a little concerned about the forward part

See you soon at the Dis-Meet

[DenverVal]

Deck 5 must be the DISdeck! We'll be staying in 5500!

 

[dustinplowman]

WE GOT OUR DOCS!

 

[Tandyc]

Congrats Dustinplowman! It's official now, your cruisin' soon. Glad to have you along!

Hi All,

Got my postcards today! We are trying to tie up the loose ends. Can you all believe how close this is getting? We ordered some baskets today from The Perfect Gift down at Port Canaveral. They are so helpful. FYI - The Perfect Gift has 15% off coupons for Ron Jons stores. They are sending us the coupon in our Key West packet. I think I'll buy some Sea Safe lotion at Ron Jon's before we board!!

Congrats on getting your docs Dustinplowman! Doesn't it feel great??

 

[Edinafabs]

Yeah! Deck 5, the DISDeck--I love it. As they predicted, its cold and rainy today. I keep dreaming of Florida weather. But I haven't seen any hidden Mickeys in my carrot sticks yet.

 

[Phrebert]

A DCL rep called us and said we were upgraded to cabin 8016. We cant wait

 

[Phrebert]

Her name was April Sloof.

 

[Tandyc]

Silly Phrebert!

 

[CB4U]

I'm ready to cruise now!! We have had torrential rains here in the NE. I have been pumping water out of the basement all day and we're still not done. More rain headed in this evening.....ah just to sit out on the verandah with a nice cold glass of wine.

 

[wendilyn]

Hey CB4U!
This rain is crazy! You can float a canoe in our front yard! Can't wait for the 24th! So glad April is here!
Hey has anyone gone horseback riding in GC? Do you know what time they let non- dis excursion people onto the tenders?
Thanks,
Wendilyn

 

[DenverVal]

Do you think you could arrange to have it rain directly into our reservoirs? We could really use that rain out here!

Phrebert, good one! I had to look that one up!

 

[Ontario Kim]

They finally came!!! Do you think they got stuck at the border? We didn't get an upgrade but we are happy with our room. We are on the 8th deck in the middle (right beside a catagory 3) We almost made it to the catagory 3 I guess. We are still actually hoping we will be moved next door but will have to wait and see.

In our documents we received a Bahamas Immigration form to fill out. Did anyone else on our cruise get one or did they send it to us in error (thinking we are on Eastern?) Is this something new for Castaway Key?

DenverVal - I think it was you I saw posted on another thread about the Hyatt Day Room. We booked ours back in February and got the 60.00 rate plus 11.5% tax. Since then we have had to cancel since our flights got changed to the morning so we no longer need the room. They must have uped their day room price. I still think it is a great way to spend the day.
