Yep,

I think Bobby won

I enjoyed the write up, I can see we think alike, ohhh this is gonna be a fun cruise.

Sue, we havent decided if we are staying a few days in WDW yet before the cruise, If I get the time off we will, otherwise we will fly in the night before, then stay at either the radison or Ron Jon.

Andy - Hope Angelina is feeling better

Our tentative plans are for Jon & I to fly down Aug 12 and spend a few days at WDW. Dave will fly down that Fri, rent a car from Avis, come pickup Jon & myself. (Unless he joins us earlier at WDW). We'll then drive over to the Radisson at port, and turn in the rental car. Have the Radisson shuttle us to port early Sat morn.
We did Avis & the Radisson back in 03 and it worked out well.

Update on Nick, He was supposed to go home tom., but he has been getting sick all day. He is also very pale and says his head is really hurting him. They are trying to get him in for emergency catscan. My friend overheard the nerologist that it might be another blood clot! Please continue good thoughts for him. The family is starting to break down. I am waiting to hear the results. I will probably go to the hospital tom. to show support. I feel so helpless! They didn't even tell thier inlaws because the Grandma has been so upset. I hope this hole ordeal is over soon and the family can recover. I am reminded how lucky I am!

Bobby - That was great of you to post your day by day. I love to watch storms in the distance. Did you get pictures of those? Do you think there is any chance for a repeat .

Mary - Hope all went well with your dad today and he is % soon.

Doreen - Feel free to vent anytime, that is what we are here for. Are you on a nebulizer? Feel better soon forget the car and just get some rest.

Andy - Is Angelina feeling any better? I hope she is well for the paddle boat excursion. The weather has been crazy down there. I hope it moves on rapidly.

Terry - Glad your computer is well again! Thanks for the update as well, weeks!!

Ed - I think 8/15 is close enough for a double celebration.

Sue - Same goes for Vicki! Will you guys be on a plane that day? You had the best day, I actually felt like I was there sharing it with you.

Urgh, morning all. Very long day yesterday! Dad is doing as well as expected. Surgery went well, once they got in there it turned out better than we thought. Cuff not torn and did not end up having it pinned. nor did he have a plate put in. Do they go hand and hand?? Still on my learning curve of life They (stitched) it together and should heal well and he should be "healed" in 3-6 months! He thinks it will only be 3, Step Mom has not told him differnetly yet.... However he did get sick to his stomach so we never got to see him until he got his room last night at 6:30!! He went in at 11:40'ish. DGM and I basically gave him a kiss on the forehead and started my 3 1/2 hour journey home.

Promised the boys I would let them go icefishing today with a family friend since it is the last day of the season they can go. So, we are headed out the door!!

From the bottom of my heart to all those who sent good wishes! I hopped on in one of the waiting rooms and showed SM. She was amazed how kind/thoughtful you all are. So thanks from her as well.

Mary

Good morning

I gotta admit I havent read back through this post so Im really not sure what's going on with family members - seems theres alot who are sick. Hope everyone gets well soon.

May take Jonathan to Mystic Aquarium today. We're members and havent been for a while.
Need to also find time today to put together an Easter basket. He'll be 13 in 7wks and still loves to wake up Easter morning w/those plastic eggs all over the house! lol
Dave is talking about cooking spaghetti for our Easter dinner! Oh well, he's the cook

Good Morning From Stormy Florida,

We are having another day like yesterday weather wise. We're going to call at 9am to see if the paddle boat cruise excursion is still a go. The temp is going up to 85 today with more severe thunderstorms predicted. I hope the weather is better tomorrow afternoon, as that is when we will be flying home.

Angelina had a better night last night, and no signs of a fever since yesterday morning. We stayed close to the area and did manage to go to the movies again last evening and saw "Miss Congeniality 2" which was a riot.

Mary--Prayers and Pixie Dust for your dad's quick recovery, I hope he does well with PT!!!

Time to go get some breakfast and get ready for our last full day here, take care everyone and here's wishing you all a happy and safe weekend!!!

Hi All,

We had a real nice time today on the Beresford Lady during our three hour paddle boat ride. It rained a good part of the ride, but by then we were back inside enjoying a very delicious buffet lunch. I was very impressed with the Beresford Lady, this paddle boat was built by hand and took about 18 years to build. The owners have only been doing the paddle boat tour rides for just a little over four years. I did get a couple of nice photos of us on the paddle boat.

We were going to take a ride to Port Canaveral after we got off the paddle boat ride and watch the Magic sail away this evening, but it was still raining too hard, so we just came back to my mom's and she made us dinner tonight.

Thanks for the pixie dust, Angelina is feeling much better today. Tomorrow it is back to reality and Monday it is back to work.

Well, I'm going to close for now.

Andy

Hi,

I posted this on another thread, but thought I'd add it to thread too. I just booked our 2nd Disney Cruise today, for 8/19/06!! Two visits to Castaway Cay will be heaven!

We have a Category 6 and have been assigned to room 6110 (anyone ever have this room? We stayed in 6052 last time and liked the location a lot!!) At the time of sailing we will be: me (42) DH (44) DD (11) DD (8) (seems weird to write that my "baby" will be 8, and that I'll be 42, nonetheless!!!!)

Happy Easter Everyone !

Andy: Have a safe trip back home.

Michele25: Welcome aboard ! I am also your neighbor to the right of you. Are you going to fly out of Buffalo or Rochester? Tina

 

[Verandah Man]

Good Morning All, and to those of us who celebrate, Happy Easter!!!

Welcome Aboard Michele and Family to the Cruisin' Castaways Family!!!

This will most likely be my last post from Florida for this trip but at least it looks like it is going to be a much nicer day weather wise here. We will be leaving here around 11am for the airport, hopefully, we will get in at least Group B again for the flight home.

I really am not looking forward to leaving these warmer temps for the chilly temps up home, but you got to do, what you got to do, don't you?

It's time to start getting everyone on the move here, so I will check in later.

Have a BLESSED day,

Andy
