April 7, 2007 Western on the Magic?

[PBader]

i am attending a mini-meet for our August 08 repo Friday night at OKW. I think there are 31 of us attending. I can't wait it is going to be so much fun.
Then I get to meet all of you on Saturday

 

[PBader]

Just taking a break from washing and packing to daydream about what I'll being doing NEXT Saturday night after we set sail. Checked our Walmart for green bracelets today. No luck with the bracelets, but stocked up on sunscreen. Also bought ginger. Never tried it, but I've been reading that it does work if the boat starts a rockin and nausea sets in. The girls haven't cruised before so I don't know how they will be. Probably fine.

Finally received my docs and straightened out my flight dilema - and really looking forward to some warm tropical air. It's still 40 degrees here.

Girls are looking forward to meeting the friends they found on the forum. I added their picture to my signature for fun.

See you all soon. It's almost time.

Debbie glad you got your flights fixed. I know that has to be a relief. I have only had problems on ship 2 times. Rough weather in January and hurricane on last EB repo cruise. We should have smooth sailing. Your DD look adorable!
I haven't found any more bracelets. I am going to try to make a trip to another WM. his week if I can find time. I am trying to get the housework done! I love to come home to a clean house.



Ellyn day or evening would be fine. Don't stress about it! We do need to figure out what night is going to be pirate night. On Feb cruise they had it on Tuesday. I am going to search the navigators

I just came across an old thread on "post your pirate pics." I'm sure you have your pirate costume all ready to go for this week's cruise! That was a great photo you posted!!!

To play fair . . . he's a link to photos of me from our vow renewal on the ship on 3/1/07. http://www.lneal.com/vowrenewal/

Courtney will be out of school for a week for the 2/2/08 cruise -- its Mardi Gras here and everything shuts down that week. That is the only reason we cruise that week most years. Since she'll be a senior next year, its our last time to worry about a school schedule when planning vacation.

We will be sailing on the Magic also on the 7th.
Susan (48), DH John (53) and DS William (8)

This will be our second Disney Cruise, first was Christmas 2005. Rebooked while onboard. We will be visiting the Pirate Museum while in Key West (already bought tickets online)

Started packing tonight, will finish tomorrow hopefully. We are driving from Maryland to FL. Will stay a nght or two at WDW then Friday at Raddison. I had ressies at Country Inn and read somewhere someone had shuttle trouble so I switched.

How long do you have to wait if you get to the terminal at about 11 am? Is that too early or too late??

Thanks everyone, we are looking forward to a great cruise and meeting some fellow dis board members

Lisa - those are beautiful photos...How very cool to renew your vows on board!!! Guess that will never happen for since DH refuses to sail - he's such a wuss!!!!

I do have my pirate 'costume' set....went to Ralph Lauren last weekend and found the perfect outfit

Susan, welcome!! My DS is 7, maybe they would like to meet. Last time I got to the terminal around 11. It wasn't bad at all. It gave me time to check in, pick-up the beeper for the kid's club (I had already registered them on-line). I think that they started boarding by number around 12:00. We were the 5th group to board - so there were plenty of people who got there before us but I feel we got on the boat in plenty of time. Ellyn

DD is kind of bummed, she has been afraid of heights, and has mostly gotten over it, and she really wanted to go parasailing, so we booked it for her on Castaway Cay, now I guess according to a post on the main cruise line forum, no parasailing on Castaway Cay.

 

[bstsuda]

Is anyoned booked on the Dune Buggy/Snorkeling exc in Cozumel? and how about Pirate Encounters in GC?

I posted this for Debbie awhile back. These are in Key West and might fit into your plans.

This is one of them

Hi Mona,
I was looking forward to being your neighbor, but Just got a call from DU. We got upgraded on our cruise this Saturday! We had connecting SPH rooms (cat 10) now we have connecting 7's with the nav. verandahs. What a way to start the day
We are now in 6640 & 6642! Don't forget to send the kiddos by for easter eggs on Sunday.

 

[SC Minnie]

Wow! We were hoping for an upgrade but nothing yet.
