August 18, 2010...Can't wait for the MAGICal Mediterranean!!!

Happy Friday to all. Not a very nice one here, but it could be snow.

Kim-How did you find out the dining schedule. That is very cool.

Mindy- Palo sounds fun if there is room for two more.

Can't believe PIF date is less than a month away. Finally started looking at excursions. Only manged to figure out Ajaccio, because it was listed first on the DCL webiste. We are going to do the beach break. After two long port intensive days in Rome and Florence the only thing I think we will be able to handle is lying on the beach.

don't know that we actually decided...but did get some suggestions...we have over a month to figure out....you can focus on it when you get back from Disney......I still have to get my act together and figure out what we are doing>?

How did my fellow NE'ers fair during that HORRIBLE storm this weekend! My neighborhood looks like a war zone, roofs missing tons of shingles... HUGE trees down... power lines down... SCHOOL CLOSED!!!! Luckily we haven't lost power at all, but other parts of my town I'm hearing might be out all week!!!!! There is a Target in my town that almost lost it's front doors during the storm!!!! Luckily we escaped pretty unscathed, no damage to our home or property.

We escaped pretty much unharmed. We didn't lose power, a few local roads flooded out and some trees were down, but not much damage in my immediate neighborhood. I guess we're somewhat lucky, since the development has only been there about 14 years, there aren't any older trees to come down. Sorry to hear about your mess. Hopefully the clean up doesn't take too long. Glad to hear you didn't personally suffer any losses.

Glad y'all are ok.

 

[Cliffside]

Hi all
Glad everyone in nj is ok. My town looks a mess. I have never seen so many trees down in my life. There is one in our front yard that looks like it is going to come down. It is owned by the town and my DH has been asking for it to be taken care of and they keep putting him off. Hopefully we will be ok.

Can't believe the magic is heading to Europe in less than a month. Looking forward to hearing trip reports from med cruisers before we go.

Wow ....That is some site. I would never know how to create that.

Hi all

So far, I've seen 2 pre-trip reports for med cruises, and have subscribed to both! I cannot wait to hear all the details!

Me either!!!! and with our WDW vacation next week, I can start giving my full attention to this vacation REALLY soon!!!!!

Have fun for me! DD and I are going to CA for spring break, but no Disneyland this time (much to her chagrin...). The weather will be better than here and we'll se family and friends, so it'll be a good time! DH staying home.

 

[mindelmouse]

We're not going anywhere for spring break. I needed to save my vacation time for the cruise. Since my kids are still off another week when we get home, I needed 3 weeks. Since my vacation year is Oct 1 through Sept 30 and I went to WDW in November, I had no more time to take. That's okay...my kids have to make up snow days that week, so they're only off 4 days.

On another note, I'm committed now...we paid off the balance of our cruise....in a month I can book excursions. It doesn't seem real because I haven't gotten the credit card statement yet...but I know today was the day...

JEALOUS!!!!!!

I don't work and Darren gets 5 weeks per year. With these past 2 days off this week, I'm hoping they'll add them on to the end of the year and not take days away from spring break. We won't be here and I'll fight to get them excused if they take away spring break.

Hey I'm jealous that you're going WDW soon...I would love to go...Have a wonderful time...hopefully I can actually find time to sit down with DH and figure out excursions...thank goodness you and Kim are organized and I have 2 ports taken care of.

Did your credit card go into shock?
