.....Tell that boss , he/she is not getting a Christmas card from your cruise family this year.
We will plant a flower at the start of US 1 in the Keys in the name of the Cruiselady and her family.
Was looking forward to seeing where you guys lived by DW & me here in N W Indiana.

Anyone want to see the Magic, live , she is in port right now.....http://portcanaveralwebcam.com/

 

[Husurdady]

BOY! you people really talk alot on our boards. ....Just think....on Christmas Day it will only be four more months...........who said there isn't a SANTA.
Today is DW's birthday, she turned 36 today, and last week it was mine, I turned 46 years old. See friends as you get older , you start to see thing in a differant way.

 

[tebi73]

I thought I was the only one around! I noticed that my ticker said 4+ months yesterday. I'm ready to go now!

Happy Birthday Don and Kathy!!

Getting ready to pay off cruise and book my excursions on the 27th
Really getting excited and nervous!!! Trying to narrow down everything we want to do on the ship and our excursions.
Thinking we will keep the kids on the ship at Key West and take the trolley and go see Margaritaville! I have to book dh's massage and the Palo brunch for sea day and I think we are doing Atlantis Aquaventure in Nassau. Hope to pick up a cabana on Castaway Cay day. Anyone know what they are planning on doing on the ship or for excursions?

And if I don't get back on here between now and the holidays,,,MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! (or whatever holiday you celebrate I hope its a good one!)

 

[tebi73]

I'm hoping that DH, DS & I can sit down sometime over the holidays & decide on our excursions, etc. We are giving DS his choice of 1 excursion for his Christmas gift, so he's pretty excited about getting to decide.

So is anyone going to "dress-up" for Pirate night?

 

[princesskenziesmom]

We are planning on dressing up for Pirate Night. We love to dress up for Halloween so this will be fun plus the boys have their Capt. Sparrow outfits they got at the Pirate League last year at WDW. Do you guys have early or late seating? Definitely planning on hanging out at the Pirate Party if they don't get too tired from their day at Atlantis.

Good! We're planning on dressing up too. I didn't want to be the only "pirate weirdos"! Malachi is definitely looking forward to Pirate Night & the pirate party!

We have late seating for dinner. What about ya'll?

Does anyone know what our cruise theme nights are? Looks like there is a Pirate night, but I'm not sure about any other themes.

 

[princesskenziesmom]

Welcome Desert Beauty!!

I believe that Tebi73 (Allison) is in charge of the FE's for the cruise. She should be able to help you out. By the way, Allison, how many people have signed up for FE? We are still on the fence about joining.

We are new to cruising too but am pretty sure there is only the Pirate Night and a semi-formal night???? I read on here that per the Passporter, dress up night on 5 night cruises are the 3rd night which would be our sea day. We plan on dressing up for formal night and pirate night. We want to get the full experience.

 

[princesskenziesmom]

Hit the post button before I was done,,,

ANYWAYS....

I am so excited!! We just paid off the cruise yesterday and i booked everything today !!!! Got everything we wanted so I am super excited, now I just have to lose some weight to look good!

We have late seating for dinner. What about ya'll?

We have main seating, we always eat early at home but still contemplating changing it to late seating.

Welcome aboard Desert Beauty!

I am in charge of co-ordinating the Fish Extender exchange. You can post your info here on this thread & I'll pick it up from here or, if you don't want all your info "out there" for everyone to see, you can PM me. I believe you do have to have 10 posts to be able to send PMs.

I agree with princesskenziesmom that I've read about the Pirate Night & Semi-Formal night as well.

So far we have 9 people confirmed. 5 kids & 4 adults. Others have expressed interest, but have only heard back for sure from these 3 families. Looks like more when I am able to hear back from Desert Beauty!

Allison does great work...don't-U-think.

That sounds like a great place to me! This is my 1st cruise, so I don't know all that much about the ship. So - lets plan on that!

MEET & GREET ON BOARDING DAY - 3PM @ THE PROMENADE LOUNGE ON DECK 3 - PORT SIDE - MID SHIP!

Good for you Brittany, in paying so soon.
Say I have a question......Did they give you a boarding time to report at the Port? We have not cruised since they started that asigned boarding time stuff...........If so, what boarding time did you guys get?
You said; " we got everything we wanted"............does that mean you already pre- bought drinks @ MARGARITAVILLE

When I did the on-line check in I didn't have to pick a boarding time since we are staying Concierge. (and no--I am not bragging ) It looks like from the posts though that people are still arriving whenever they want and are boarding. Especially with the Magic being a smaller ship it doesn't sound like Disney is very concerned with boarding times.

When I booked everything I didn't see the pre-bought drinks at Margaritaville,, but I am sure we will be spending some of our budget there! We are planning on leaving the kids on the ship and going there. I went to the one in Jamaica and it was a blast! Hope to see you and Kathy there!!

Hi there everyone I posted a while back about my 2 daughters and their families joining you all, Will try in the next few days to get then sighned up here on the disboards. Daughter Jennifer and grandson Logun who is 7 on cruise will be joining in the fe Will speak to my other daughter Jolene about joining. Logun has cruised last Jan with dh and myself on the magic and he loved the fe exchange so its a done deal as far as him and Jennifer as he wouldnt want to miss out on it this cruise. Im jealous wish I was going in April as my cruise in August on the fantasy seems so far away, I will be staying home with my Grandson Jordan whom is in high school and is not wanting to take time off of school for the cruise , he is going with dh and myself along with granddaughter in August. Well have fun planning and expect to hear from my family soon
