August 27th 2009 cruise on the wonder

[DMMarla07860]

Okay.......can't stand it anymore. Is anyone as excited as we are?

I'm so excited. I'm having dreams about the ship and people I know who work on it, so that's how I know I am excited.

I was just wondering if any of the cruisers from the February 8, 09 cruise? We took advantage of the $99.00 cruise voucher! Great deal!

We also took advantage of the $99 deal. We were on the Valentines day Magic Eastern. Couldn't pass up on a good thing and another excuse to spend some time with Disney!!!

We are in DVC and I don't know anything about meet and greets, is that something they normally do?

We have actually booked on points, so Disney should know we are DVC so maybe they will mention something when we board.

We are also DVC. They usually have a meet and greet within the first day to show what specials on points they are offering. Fortunately/ Unfortunately my wife and I have added on points every cruise due to the incentives. In February they gave us a free 3 day cruise in addition to a discount on points. This cruise isn't our free one. Last cruise they gave out $99/pp vouchers for a 3 day cruise. So we still have another cruise to book besides the one we also have book for this up coming February. You can tell Disney really likes to take care of it's DVC members and keep them excited!

I only worry till I get down to Orlando, after that I don't worry about anything.

I'm watching the weather and I'm not worried at all! I'm at Disneyland in California, so if flights get cancelled and I can't make it, I'm still at the happiest place on earth. We'll... I'd be happy until the extra bill comes for the hotel costs anyway lol.

But seriously, bad storms like that will usually never directly hit Orlando DIRECTLY because Orlando is inland. Given this, getting to Orlando shouldn't be any trouble, especially given Hurricane Bill's projected path. If a storm does pull into Orlando area, airlines will usually allow you to change the day of your flight without penalty so you can always choose to fly in the day before the storm if it works out that way. I highly doubt we'll have any problems though, I wouldn't be too worried.

Less than a week to go! The kids are still clueless that we are going on a trip.
