DisneyElf...I sent you a PM.....


I need to get cracking on packing as we are going on an 8 night cruise next week out of NYC....MJ

Can I come too?

 

[DisneyElf]

Yup -- you can come too.

Spent a delightful 15 mins. talking to the TA that Roberto set us up with Angie (a male). He is sending me a form for each group to complete and send to him. Payments will be due by mid-July. The only thing he is requesting is the real names of the group this way he can make sure that everything is handled properly.

More details will be forthcoming

What cruise line and what ports out of NY??

Carnival Legend 8 nights out of NYC going to San Juan, St. Thomas and Tortola....we have been to both San Juan and St. Thomas a few times, but really looking forward to Tortola as we have never been there.

Our kids are excited as they have only cruised on DCL ...being 21, 20 and 17 they are ready for a new experience...

DCL will always be my favorite but I am looking forward to just being away on the sea!!!

I feel so lucky that we have friends staying at our house while we are gone watching our yellow lab, keeping her company.

Sounds like a great cruise, be sure to tell us all about it when you get home.

I need to get cracking on packing as we are going on an 8 night cruise next week out of NYC....and having house guests prior to that....could be an interesting week!!!

MJ - Have a terrific time, this is the family reunion cruise right? And you'll have your kids with you so you won't have to feel guilty on the Panama Canal cruise!

Have you and your friends decided on any excursions yet?

Thanks MJ.....if only I could come. I could live at sea and be very happy!

 

[DisneyElf]

MJ -- you will have a great trip -- one of the women from my office just come back from the exact same trip with Carnival -- she said it was very nice (she cruises everywhere -- doing a Med Cruise this Nov.)... only problem was smoking in the casinos.

Have fun

They have new pressed penny's for the 50th. 51 of them. One for each year from 1955-2005. I have found a list from Disney of all the penny presses in the park. The ones in yellow are the 50th anniversary ones. You can either print it out, or get a sheet from guest services. It's a pdf file

Val, when are you leaving? Wednesday? Have a great time and give Donna and Howard a hug for me!

Donna, can I share a picture of Howard so Val can recognize him?

Tracy

 

[DenverVal]

Yes, I leave WEDNESDAY!!! I have been running around getting everything ready, and taking care of stuff that has to be done before I can leave. I would love a photo too! We are hitting the ground running, getting to Ontario Airport before noon, getting a car, one stop at Diamond Bar to get lunch at my favorite Del Taco, and then off to the Candy Cane Inn to check in and park, then off to California Adventure. We are SO excited! Can't wait to see Donna and Howard and Barbara!

 

[winotracy]

Can't wait to see Donna and Howard and Barbara!

Got current pictures of all three. If they don't give me permission to post them, I'll e-mail them to you when I get home.

Tracy

Fine with me. As I told you before about the pic of Howard, if he didn't want it posted, he wouldn't have posed.

Donna

 

[DisneyElf]

I can just see poor Howard when all the rest of us show up in August


Any idea when Space Mountain will be re-opening ?

 

[rsschneck]

Have a GREAT time you guys!
