April 26 - May 3, 2008 Caribbean Crazy Cruisers

[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone. Happy Friday!

Wow - how great to see these getting to know you questions being answered. Patty I'm not sure why the last one isn't coming over. I've always found the easiest way to do those is to quote them (the blank one) and then delete the quote code before and after it. Hope that helps.

Web page update!

I've made some updates to the web page.

First in the gallery we've got two new families.

Myers Famly5 - come meet Patty, her DH Mark, and kids Austin, Julie and Alec!

stevenmtl - come meet Steven, his DW Beth and kids Jaycie and Ryan

I've also started a listing below the gallery of all the days and what people are doing. Right now I only have the plans for Mark and I but don't hesitate to send me your plans and I'll add them.

Anxiety must really be setting in. I had my first cruise nightmare last nite. I dreamed that I was naked at the Sail Away Party and they put me on the Jumbotron. HAHA. Just kidding. If that happened in real life, people would be jumping off the sides. Abandon ship! Abandon ship!

But I really did have a cruise nightmare:
For some reason, I was taking a nap on the ship. I woke up at 3:30pm and the ship was beginning to toss and turn from the waves. {dreams don't know about time schedules}. I freaked out because I forgot to put on my motion sickness patch, which is in the Dopp Kit. Oh noooo, I couldn't remember if I had packed the Dopp Kit. Dang it, my toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. are also in the Dopp Kit. Then I realized that I hadn't drank enough water because I had been sleeping so long. And then I realized that I was late for the Roll Call Meet and Greet. {maybe that's when I woke up. LOL}.Honestly, the roll call meet and greet entered into my dream.

Last nite, I had another dream about an ex-girlfriend in high school. I have no idea why she popped into my head. I didn't dare tell Steph. But then, there was nothing juicy about this dream - just that she showed up at the house and it was very awkward.

Anxiety!? Excitement!? I'm definitely feeling it. But its all good!!!!

error_postcount_too_low_post_links

Patty - I believe I got that error a while back, but I don't know why. However, I got rid of the error by posting small bits at a time. That is, I cut and pasted a few lines and if that worked, I cut and pasted a few more - until the error occurred - and then I rewrote the lines. If I remember correctly, I think it had to do with some misspelled word.

Aren't cruise nightmares funny. I haven't had any for this trip yet, but I have had them.

Patty - I sent you a pm. Let me know if you have any questions.

Aren't cruise nightmares funny. I haven't had any for this trip yet, but I have had them.

I had a nightmare the other night which was sorta cruise related b/c it involved people we're cruising with.

I kid you not, I had a dream where I had to clean Mark and Mary's house. And the whole time Mary was standing over me telling me I missed a spot and yapping out orders about what I had to clean next.

It was weird.

Also weird b/c I've been to Mark and Mary's house and this house didn't look ANYTHING like their house.

Ha!

Whoo-hoo.....U TOP!

Yeah - Karen got me a new house and is going to clean it for me. That isn't a nightmare it is a dream come true!

 

[WDWLVR]

BTW - forgot to mention that Patty came up with a name for the group so I've added it to the website:

Caribbean Crazy Cruzers!

 

[dreamcometrue]

omg i have been having cruise nightmares since we booked I think. lol. I mostly dream of missing the ship, or realizing after we board that we didn't pack a thing. Well, and then there's the "omg we forgot our passports" dream.

Raining here again. I'm glad it's Friday. It was a short week due to the holiday on Monday. They were complaining at work yesterday that in April there wasn't a single holiday and I was thinking to myself "for me there will be!"

 

[dreamcometrue]

oh I like the name. Should I add it to the title of the thread?

 

[dreamcometrue]

btw, our cruise plans so far are:

St. Maarten day:
St. Maarten Island & Butterfly Farm Tour 8am - 12:30am

St. Thomas day:
Tortola Dolphin Encounter 6:30am - 3pm

btw, I don't understand the St. Thomas excursion since the Magic isn't supposed to dock in St. Thomas until 8:00am?!

Also, I know it's been asked on the main board plenty of times, but what day is pirate night? is it St. Thomas day or St. Maarten day?

Anyway, we will have to figure out a palo brunch when we board. Looking forward to the DIS meet.

See? It's all about perspective!
Actually, it'd be wonderful to clean your house. Because I could leave it clean and not see it get messed up right away. When I clean here, it's so discouraging to see it get all messed up so quickly.

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome. I have come across some of the nicest people on this board. I have a question… I would like to surprise my DS with a limo ride to the port from Animal Kingdom How far in advance do I need to book that and who should I use?
Thank you again! Samantha

We've only used a limo once - it was Southern Elegance. I thought they did a nice job and saved the day for us. We had left a litho in the back seat and they were able to get it to us the next day.
