Attention all 10/12/03 4night Wonder Cruisers! Sign in here!

[BeanoC]

Connie, we leave at 4AM also. On school days, we can't get the kids out of bed at 7AM. Going to Disney? They're up at 3!! Go figure.

Wayne, if you need some help with that camcorder, I can show ya how to use it... let me know!

I am at work right now, and next Saturday at this time, I'll probably be sitting by the pool at the Radisson. Hmmm... work, or pool?... tough call.


Let's cruise!!!

Back on here again!!...I admit it..I'm addicted!! I might not always post but I'm always reading!!

I've been looking for this review to share about Nassau..but I'll be damned if I can find it!! ARRGGG I wanted you veterns to read it. I did have enough sense to print it, so I can show it to you on the ship for your review!! (That's if, after meeting us you want anything to do with us!!...hahaha )

I did manage to get the Halloween decorations up this morning...so I'm heading in the right direction. I should be getting ready for this party (NO alcohol, though ) so we might not be there too long...hahahaha..really..it is a nice family time..the hosts call it their "Fall Classic" -- horse rides, hay rides, volleyball, euchur-- did I spell that right --tournaments, bonfire (HUGE bonfire) and my favorite...FOOD!!!

I can't believe we leave this thursday!! I'm excited and depressed at the same time!! I think half the fun has been the anticipation and the OBSESSIVE planning that I've been doing. Now to see if my plans actually work...if they don't...Ohhh I don't want to go there.

I better get going!! Hubby will be yelling soon!!

I'll check in later.

Okay, after figuring what I am going to pack, I had to break the news to hubby that his clothes will not fit into the suitcase. Being the understanding husband he is, he said that he doesn't mind wearing the same stinky clothes over and over again. My question is, for Palo, should I have him wash out his underwear or not?

Swany, sounds like a super fun day today. Why didn't you invite me Fall Classic? I would have behaved.

 

[Wiggle]

Two of our favorite rides will be in rehab while we're in WDW: Big Thunder Mtn RR & Tower of Terror. I'm OK with BTMRR because it's like a 3 month rehab or something, but ToT is closed only 10/13 - 10/19. That sounds a little suspicious to me....

 

[MO64RN]

I think BTMRR is closed due to that death in CA. I can't answer re: TOT.

Do you like Rocking Rollercoaster? it is one of our fav's.

 

[BeanoC]

Mo - I had to scratch you from my list of friends whom I intended to buy a sailaway drink... ask our daughters why.

Just kidding Ro!! I am glad you guys got to talk today.

Rose - Washing out the underwear would be a classy gesture, but it's not mandatory.

I could bring an extra Speedo for him, if you like. Is lime green ok??




'Beano'

 

[Wiggle]

Actually, BTMRR in WDW was already under rehab when the DL accident happened (it closed in August and won't reopen until Nov.)

Yes, we luh-uh-ove RnR! My kids are coaster freaks. We wanted to do ToT to try the penny thing, where you let go of a penny at the beginning of your drop, and when you bounce back up, the penny is there waiting for you, as if suspended in midair.

Really looking forward to Mission:Space and Mickey's Philharmonic.

Lynne

 

[MO64RN]

Sorry Beano,
I hope you have a good calling plan? The next call is on me. Hey I don't recall a lime green speedo form last year. I may have felt or been if I saw it. j/k I am glad the girls got to

Lynn, we are also coaster freeks with the exception of DH. Have you guys ever done IOA? We love the Hulk coaster. They have some other cool rides there.

One more day of shopping today to see what else I can buy for this cruise.

 

[Wiggle]

We went non-Disney this past January for President's Day week and spent time at SW, IOA and USF. We really got a kick out of the Hulk. Unfortunately, DS2 (who loves coasters more than DS1) wasn't tall enough to ride the really good ones...by 1"! Poor little guy. But he's been eating and exercising and getting good sleep, so he hopes he's tall enough to ride the big coasters. He's so silly!

My parents went with us and bought the kids these hats:

I'll be finishing up my costume today, but right now it's a beautiful fall day, so I'm going to pull up some summer annuals and put in the pansies I bought Friday.

Lynne

PS - Methinks the boys are onto us about the surprise trip.....

 

[MO64RN]

The hats are cute. I have seen them. Do your kids actually wear them though? Good for Halloween. I imagine it would be hard to keep a cruise a secret.

I don't know about anyone else but all I think about day and night is going on this cruise. I hope the anticipation isn't going to be built up so much that I am dissapointed.

It seems like we have such a great group here. Will everybody be wearing their lime green t-shirts at embarktion?

 

[swanyfour]

How about a rendezvous on Sunday??

Any suggestions??

 

[MO64RN]

Swanyfour,
I believe we are meeting at the sailaway party Deck 10. Correct me if I am wrong anybody.

 

[Wiggle]

Please repost the rendez-vous details! I'm too lazy to poke through this whole thread.

Lynne

 

[BeanoC]

Lynne - Maureen is correct - Deck 10, at the sailaway party, just after the lifeboat drill.

And yes Mo, we will all be wearing our lime green tshirts at the port and at sailaway.

[takemeaway]

UMMMM, excuse me Beano, you forgot one small detail about the sail-away...you are buying drinks!!!! Actually Beano, I was thinking of having you buy me drinks. Then I was going to ask how much your paid for your room and start to tell you that you paid too much. Then I was going to walk away never to be seen again....sound familiar?

Beano, thanks for the offer of the lime green speedo, but I would rather hubby go without!

In Europe speedos are very stylish. Wayne, will you be sporting a speedo on Castaway CAy? Maybe Beano could get some video of that for me!

Am I gonna see women on Castaway Cay in thongs that shouldn't really be in thongs? Beano, maybe you can get some video of that for me as well.

Honestly, I don't care what people wear to the beach. If you feel good in it, wear it! I am waiting for the swimsuits that the women in the 1920's wore to come back in style.

 

[takemeaway]

I tried to change something on my profile and wanted to see if it worked. Please ignore this post. This is only a test. If this had been an actually post, you would have been instructed where to go. This concludes this test.

 

[kamgen]

Good morning! I cannot believe it!!! We leave THIS FRIDAY!!!!!

I am so excited! Got some stuff done this weekend and am counting down!

What is up with having to work...this stinks! Well, how else do you pay for these trips? LOL!!!

I am so ready to cruise!

 

[BeanoC]

Ready here too, Kamy ... almost!!

I have plenty of packing to do yet, and a long list of other things, such as pick up suit from cleaners, stop newspaper and mail, etc. But other than that, we be good to go!!

4 more days...




'Beano'

 

[Wiggle]

Beano, where in the world did you all find lime green t-shirts? I couldn't find ribbon, but I did find fabric.

I finished all of our costumes this weekend. Ran a couple of errands today. Still a good chunk of things left to do. I think DH might be more excited about this trip than me!!

Lynne

 

[BeanoC]

Lynne, we have never really had a problem finding them here, for whatever reason. But this year, we have Kamy to thank, as she got all of our shirts for us! Lime green ones for each cruise, and bright orange for MNSSHP!!

Go Kamy! Go Kamy!

I have tons of ribbon, and we are going to "re-string" our suitcase tonight! Lime green everywhere! LOL


Plenty of stuff left to do here too, but that keeps it exciting!
