Aug. 21, 2004 Eastern Magic check in list

[Colestat]

We are going to WDW the week before the cruise. Our annual passes expire on August 21st, so we have to get another week out of them.

We can't wait.

We are spending the week following the cruise at WDW. Staying at BWV.

We are hoping to spend a week, just ten minutes from WDW(Westgate Vacation Villas), before the cruise. It all depends on how much time I have to take off from work for my knee surgery in May.

Boy, it looks like our ship is getting pretty full!

Every now and then I log onto the DCL website and check to see the price go up (makes me feel good about what we paid) and what categories are now on a guarantee status. Today, I got a message that no cabins were available for that cruise date. I had plugged in 2 adults and 2 children, but tried without kids, too just in case it was just a matter of the kids programs being filled to capacity. Got the same message at Travelocity and Orbitz. I called DCL just for curiosity's sake and they told me the only way they could accommodate a family of four was a Cat. 3 Family Suite for almost $11,000!

As you can see, I had too much time on my hands today... Just thought you might be interested in this little tidbit.

You sure have that right Denise, you should try walking around in all this mess with a bad knee. It isn't any fun at all. I finally found out that I will be having my knee surgery on May 4th. Will the come out on Thursday? We'll have to wait and see!!!

 

[denise5374]

I have tickets to go to the new Phillies stadium tonight and what could eb more fun than sitting at a baseball game in the pouring rain!!

Andy, I bet you are relieved that the date has been set...now if only the weather would cooperate your knees would prbably feel better. I know the last couple of days mine have bee unusually stiff as well.

The silver lining of the rain cloud is.....April showers bring May flowers!!! and the grass has certainly been green lately and all the spirng flowers are blooming. It is so nice to see a patch of bright yellow daffodils on a dreary day like today (and yesterday amd the day before that....)

Come on

 

[DuncanLL]

Sitting here looking out my office window as the downpour just started... again! It's wreaking havoc with the kids baseball/softball schedules.

Denise - There doesn't appear to be as much "cover" at the new ballpark as there was at the Vet. I caught part of the home opener on TV and it looked pretty soggy.

They say we might see sun by Friday - we'll see!

Well, we are enjoying another 70's day today. We so rarely get rain here in So Cal (which is sometimes not a good thing). But it figures that we're going to the Angels game Saturday and showers are expected!

 

[goingbacksoon]

It's nice over here in the LAX area. Sitting through my classes snoring this morning with nice weather, such a shame.

I haven't been to a baseball game in so long, Sarah. I keep saying I'm going to go out and see the Angels (when they play the A's of course; they A's are my team). I never get a chance to go, I used to practically live at the oakland coliseum in high school during the season.

Hopefully your surgery goes well Andy. I'll make sure to think of you on May 4th.

The countdown continues...

It's a shame the Phillies have this beautiful new Stadium ($453 million) and they still STINK! 1-5 record...maybe a rain out would do them good!!! I am very excited to see the new stadium, though. After going to so many games at the Vet, this place will be like a Castle....

Still Raining here in PA......

Andy, sending my good thoughts and prayers for your surgery on 5/4. Hope you are in great shape for our Dis meet in June.

We went on the 7 day Eastern in 8/02, the 7 day western in 8/03, amd are booked this year for 8/21/04. Only one problem.... when I called last week to add the baby that I just found we will be adotping (she'll be 6 months old on the cruise) I was told the cruise is BOOKED and I can not add her. Apparently we have a 3 capacity room and there are no 4 capacity rooms available at ANY level. I am praying, begging, obsessing, etc. that there will be a cancelation. If not, if I have to cancel the cruise, my daughter and neice are going to have a lot of resentment towards this sweet little baby!!!!!!!

Oh my, I would keep checking back, especially as we get closer to the 60 day out mark.

Congratulations on the adoption, we adopted our daughter(that's her photo in my avatar), when she was seven months old. It seems like yesterday that we brought her home, how the time flies, she will be 14 in September.

Congratulations on the adoption. How wonderful for you. It would be a shame if you have to cancel the cruise but hopefully a cancellation will come through for you.

It is still rainy and chilly here in New York but they said we might finally get some sun this afternoon.

Us too, us too, I just looked out the living room window and actually saw some breaks of blue sky through the clouds!!! Can the SUN be far behind???


Happy Income Tax Day everyone!!!

 

[denise5374]

The SUN is shinning in PA!!!!

Congratulations on the Adoption and I really hope that you and your family will be able to join us!!
