Hi All...Just stopping in to say hi and to welcome all the newcomers to this thread

Hope everyone is doing well, we leave for Orlando on Saturday

Was thinking of cancelling our 8/19 cruise and booking Easter 2006 on the Norwegian Dawn out of NY. It was a 10 night to the Eastern Caribbean for a few hundred dollars more (and a balcony stateroom) than this cruise. BUT now I am having second thoughts after what happened. Wonder if it is the fault of the captain for taking the ship into the storm instead of getting back a day late (and losing money) by keeping the ship in calm waters. What do you all think?

Andy...Where did you get your timer from?

Hope everyone is well, we are finally getting back to normalcy.

Talk to you all soon

Joanna

Hope everyone is having this fabulous weather that we are having here in NJ.

Have been reading this board for a while and finally decided to take the plunge and register. We (DH, DD -8yrs when cruising, and myself) will be joining you on the 08-19-2006 Cruise. We were not on the 2004 cruise but we did get "stuck" in Disney World for a few extra days at the time you were "stuck on the ship" So I feel that we may have a little in common.
This is our first cruise so I have gained a wealth of info from you guys.
We originally booked for the Aug 5th cruise but changed it because of price difference (wich I learned of on these boards over the last few weeks).
Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Hi Anita...WELCOME to the DIS boards and this thread. Only a handful of us were stuck on the 8/28 Magic the rest are all fellow DISers (including you now) who will hopefully be stuck at sea on this cruise with us. LOL

Now how do I get the "Bulletin Board" to disappear from my signature.

American Idol is on now, I loved BO but he said something stupid last week.

GREETINGS FROM THE JERSEY SHORE!!! The weather is awesome and I'm having a great time

Just wanted to stop in and say HI to all of you! Not sure if I'll have computer access on Friday or not for the Weekly Countdown. Maybe Friday night I will. I'll be back home Sunday night.


Bye for now, everybody

 

[Verandah Man]

Thanks for the birthday wishes!!!

I got to work this morning, and my work car was all decorated with Happy 50th Birthday Wishes from my co-workers. I got a good laugh out of that, I just wish I had my camera so I could have gotten a few photos. It took me over ten minutes to get all the decorations off, the car windows were plastered with signs.

I just arrived home a few minutes ago for lunch, and Hazel had the front of the house and the living room all decorated with "Over the Hill" signs and balloons. Will take some photos of them later, Hazel is taking me out to lunch for my birthday so I have to get a move on it.

Ed--no we decided to stick with the Fort Wilderness plans. The only cabin that was available for the four of us was a cat. 4 for over $6000.00, a little too much for a four day cruise.

Thanks again everyone!!!

Andy
