Bobby, you're doing a great job with your report! I love the narration and the pictures I can't wait to read each new page as you're able to add them.

Bobby...The pictures are covering the words of the trip report in some spots.

Also, why don't you go to the trip report board and post a link of your report there. I'm sure alot of people would LOVE to read it, it is very very good so far, I feel like I was there, and then I see my pic and realize oh yeah I was there.

Gotta Love Us! Are we the only DISers who continue our thread weeks after our cruise? I am glad to hear that some of you had problems with your kids and the clubs also. I thought it was just mine who didn't like them. I love them but 247 with them and an extended vacation, starting wearing me down.

And then you realize how small the ship really is LOL

On the first night my DD8 had a meltdown that she wanted to go home. Yep, I tried to explain to an overwhelmed tired 8 yr old there was no going home, so she (we) endured the rest of the cruise together and with the arcade. It set the tone, and then when the capt. said more time aboard OH WELL, need I say more, the ship got smaller and smaller and smaller...you get the idea. Last time she didn't like the clubs either BUT she didn't hang with me, THANK GOD for that arcade.

Hello Everyone..

Added pictures to our gallery today...

Cruise Galllery

[SeaSpray]

Wow, great pictures, everyone! I just took a look at the gallery. I have no idea how to get pictures up there, but then again, I have most of mine on my site. Should I add them to the gallery as well??

I have to say, I am definitely looking forward to our Royal Caribbean cruise in June, but I am going to miss that "Disney touch" that you see everywhere on the Disney ships. I know that the Voyager will not have the same charm or evoke the same feelings in me that the Magic did. You guys are the only ones I can say this to but I know the rest of my family that we're cruising with next year would NOT understand what I mean. lol (And I don't want to say much to my DH John because I don't want him to think that I'm complaining or ungrateful about the RCI cruise). But I cannot wait to get back on the Magic, hopefully in '06

Bobby: Great job on the pictures and thank you for the website. It was really nice of you to make that for us.
I just uploaded more pictures today.

Doreen: I am here. I have been lurking because we have been moving at work and it has kept me plenty busy and tired.
If you go to technical support they outline how to put pictures on usercp. If you have problems email me and I will try to help. (lredles8610@comcast.net)

If anyone is interested I got an email from All Seas Travel today that said Disney would be opening their 2006 sailings within the next few weeks.

What week are we planning on sailing together? I am going to call Disney and book Bob and I for 2005 and then switch once the 2006 rates come out. Is anyone planning on going to Disney before the trip?

Has anyone had success getting the 25% off with the $200 stateroom credit?

We have decided to go on Carnival next June with our friends as a graduation present to our kids. Anyone have any suggestions on ships or itineraries?

 

[MoranClan]

Hello Lynn..

We may book a 5 night out of NYC that goes to Canada...

I need a year off before that drive to Port Canaveral again..

As long as we can only drive within 4 or 5 hours, we will go out of any port ..

Bobby:

I looked at that cruise too but we really like the hot weather so I can't talk them into Canada. The Carnival rates for the Caribbean next summer look to be comparible to what I paid for the Disney Cruise this year. Here I thought Carnival would be cheap.

Hi Everyone
For those of you who met my family and I on the cruise, I just wanted to share that my DH Stan has been diagnosed with colon cancer. He was a very sick man on the cruise and never let on because he wanted me to have a wonderful vacation. I now know why he was so pale and tired for the whole cruise. I would appreciate it if you would keep him in your prayers.
Thank you,
Darlene

 

[lynr]

Darlene:

Our prayers are with Stan, you and your family. Remember that we are all here for you if you need to talk.

Lyn

Darlene - I'm so sorry to hear about Stan. He was a delight to talk to at the Radisson & on the cruise. I will keep all of you in my prayers and please let us know how he is doing and if you would like to talk at any time please email me: theobriens@verizon.net.
Does he have to have surgery?



-Mary Rose

Darlene: I am so sorry to hear about Stan's condition. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Lyn and Mary Rose, thank you so much. Yes, he must have surgery. He is in the hospital getting blood transfusions because he has lost so much blood. The Dr said he doesn't know how he was walking around. He only had 1/3 of the blood in his body that a normal male is supposed to have. He was so pale you couldn't see his lips. He had a blood test on Thurs and Fri afternoon his Dr called me and told me to find him immediately and take him to the ER. He was at work. Talk about being scared out of your wits! Thank God my son Dave is visiting and took care of getting Sandy from school and my mom hadn't left for her week in Ocean City. Between the 2 of them they have kept Sandy so that I could be at the hospital. I came home tonight because the transfusions seem to be working and I wanted to give Sandy some reassurance. I'll be back there tomorrow morning. I've been able to talk with all the doctors and they seem to have a plan. All I keep thinking is "we only have each other". I'm so tired. Thanks for listening!

 

[Mjasp]

OMG Darlene...I am so so sad to hear the news about Stan. I am so upset I don't know what to say, except our thoughts and prayers are with you and we are here if you need to talk.

Our best to you and Sandra to be strong until Stan is home again.

With warmest wishes

Joanna and family

 

[MoranClan]

We will be here if you need anyone to talk to..

Bobby and Cindy

 

[winnyis]

Stan and Darlene... our thoughts and prayers are with you both.

If we can do anything to help... just ask.

Ginny

 

[Reenieny18]

I am not sure if I got a chance to speak to him,, I probably did and didnt know it. God will watch over you all. This group of people is strong in numbers, and we can do anything together! When you feel you need to talk(type) we are hear to listen,,, never hesitate. I wish I were closer to you that I could help with child care.... if you need anything,, we are right here,
I am glad the transfusions have helped. When is surgery and what type. If it helps any,,, I too had that. It was one yr after my first wedding,, I was so sick and went for surgery to get a cholostomey.. I thought my life was done.. As you can see,, I am still kicking.. I know its not the same as your husband,, but I just wanted you to know I feel your anquish and ANGER most of all.

REENIENY@HOTMAIL.com if you need me

All my prayers
Doreen
