We will also be staying in the Universal area on the 14th as we are visiting family and will be moving to the port area pre night. So keep me informed, although we will probably be visiting family on the 14th

We are flying down on the 13th and staying at CIS walking distance from Universal. Sunday or Monday is probably the best days for us to get together for a meet.

Cool. Yes, we like to get the late August discount. No concierge in 2012 for us, it is really starting to get insane. My TA suggested trying adjoining Cat 4 instead so we booked them while on the Halloween cruise. The Cat 4s (7 day western) are $5k less than the this Dream 5 day cruise.

Yeah, I need my head examined. The Royal on this cruise, booking day one back in Nov of 2009, is $2,200 a night.

I picked that one as there was a 1/3 price reduction in suite prices for that week compared to previous summer weeks. I'm gambling that my kids will start school after sept 1 and that I will be able to get that week off (I find out June 1st for sure). I hope I can keep that booking.

Yeah, same here. We booked it with the hope that school won't start until after Labor Day. We really enjoy ending our summer vacation on a high note so hopefully all will work out for both of us.

I love the concept of 2 stops at Castaway Cay - DCL marketing genius.

To post a pic on the DIS Boards you have to upload your photo to a photo sharing website or another website you can access. Once you do that you can click on the image icon while writing your post and then copy and paste the URL address of that photo.

For instance, I have my own website, jeffreylangdon.com. If I put a photo called Mickey.jpg in the main (root) directory of my website I can add it to a DIS board posting by pasting in the URL www.jeffreylangdon.com/mickey.jpg and it would show up in my post. (By the way, I don't have a Mickey picture uploaded so this link won't work).

For Flickr or other sites, assuming you don't have your own website, you can do the same. Take note of where the photo was uploaded and copy and paste that URL into the image icon textbox.

Basically you can't add a photo from your computer, it has to be uploaded to a public website first before you can add it to a post.

I prefer trucks to sports cars, but still pretty!

 

[sdchickie]

Wow, nice car!

Just got my park tickets at a great discount, if any of you still need tickets and have kids you should check into the youth education programs. http://www.disneyyouth.com/individual-enrollment/catalog/?location[]=WDW&filter=startDate
You can register for these without being part of a group and still get the group rate on tickets. Saved me almost $300 for 3 of us. We did one of the programs in Oct. and the class was pretty cool. This time we are doing the ocean discoveries one.

We're staying at the Board Walk Villas, so yes it would be great to meet up too. ESPN??
Anyone else staying at the Epcot resorts precruise would be welcome to join us the evening before. That includes The Swan & Dolphin, Yacht Club, Beach Club & Villas, Board Walk & Villas or anyone else in the vicinity or Hollywood Studios or Epcot. They are all within walking distance or a quick ferry ride.

Saturday 13th in the afternoon ... we are flexible ,
eg we could come and meet you BEFORE the Spirit of Aloha show , just a drink or a stroll : we love that resort !!!

14/8 we have no activities planned ; we could all meet ( before or after your dinner at Tony's ) and then watch the fireworks together ?

… but ANY other time – location would be great for us !!!
( Ask DW and specially the kids !! )

Janeanne : have you plans for those two days ?

SOMEONE ELSE would like to meet at WDW pre-cruise ??

laura

Hi Guys sorry it seems I've missed soooo much

RE WDW MEET
13 th is great for us -we have it down as a chill day - all we have that day is a 5.20 ADR for Ohana @ the poly An afternoon meet there would be fab.

We are staying at Boardwalk before the cruise and want to try jelly rolls but we have a lot of evening ADrs and not sure if we would be able to make it.

Infact we have been DVC owners at Boardwalk since 1999 and we've never made it to Jellyrolls - think the jet lag hits us hard the first week!.

Anyone have an experience with DCL trip insurance? Or links to the pros and cons? (I have to figure this out by tomorrow when our paid-in-full charges go through.)

I always buy it from www.accessamerica.com/aaa and kids are always free and that is the same insurance company Disney uses.
I even had to use them twice for payment and had no problem.
