Calling All 8/19/06 Special Western Cruisers! AKA "The Cruisin' Castaways" Part 2

[Walsh clan]

So I'm checking out the room menu for the Poly as we will be arriving into Orlando at about 6.40pm, and by the time we travel over to the hotel, I know I won't want to queue for food.

So I check out that great website tikiman2001 to look at the menu and there it is! And I look at the children's selection and I see goldfish GOLDFISH??! There is one of those swimming around in its tank in my kitchen but I presume it means something else?? Love finding these words.. (to date fanny pack has been my favourite!).


Please help??!


Enjoy the shopping Bev!!

Moira, you sound like such fun! Goldfish are typically crackers or cookies made by Pepperidge Farms. They even have goldfish peanut butter crackers I believe. I wonder if that is what is on the menu for the kids?

Thank you for that my friend!!

It says that there is Chicken strips served with barbeque sauce and goldfish! Cool image but not one I'd like to eat! Crackers however, sound perfect and your picture makes them more appetising!

Moira,

Congratulations on 8500. Onward to 10,000.

I just hung up from DCL. My docs are on the way and will be at the Travel Agency on Friday. Guess you know where I'll be Friday afternoon. lol

They also said that we have a big crowd. They will try to seat as many of us together at one table with the other table(s) nearby.

Hopefully this weekend we will all be doing our doc dance.

Thanks Mia for that info, i guess i will be popping the bonine after all! And as for pets, we have a 6 1/2 lb yorkie named "Bundles" who will be staying with my niece for the 12 days we are gone. I know I am going to miss him! But my niece looks just like me (only alot younger!) so he is pretty happy!
Good news here today, my dd (17) passed her written test and now has her drivers permit, more grey hairs for me! But she is very happy, looking forward to buying herself a White Mazda 6 (I cant believe she already has the car she wants picked out!) I hope she starts making alot of $$$ to pay for it!

Hi Johna! Hi Paula! Welcome to our Cruisin' Castaways Cruise! That was a fun way of letting me know! Better get reading we've posted more than 8500 posts over the past two years. Come to think of it, all that reading might take up the three remaining weeks (so you better grab a smoothie) LOL!

Thanks everyone for the kind welcome for my sisters and their families. They're nice people, not as nice as me of course, but nice

Thank you all for the warm welcome to the cruise! This was such a last minute decision that my head is spinning with all the planning that must be done. Mare, I will call you so we can talk in more detail....all the fun stuff! I have late dinner because that was all that was open. This should be a blast! Hey, Hey, Hey, who says I am not as nice as you? LOL

When do you all think we'll reach 9,000 posts?

 

[SeaSpray]

Welcome Johna and Paula!

Do you know which cabins you'll be in? Many of us are on Deck 6. But I know sometimes when you book late, they don't tell you which cabin until the documents arrive.

From what I've just read, some documents are starting to arrive already!!

 

[makelab]

only need to average about 20 per day up until sailing. no problem!

 

[Ski-and-Sea]

Has anyone ever rented bikes at CC? Do you reserve a specific time or just show up? My kids want to ride bikes on the first CC day.

Where on CC do you rent the bikes?

Did anyone else stay up till the wee hours last night watching the DCL program on the Travel Chanel? I stayed up till two watching it and today I'm dragging like nobody's business! It's not like I haven't seen it a dozen times already.

It's just taking too long to get here!
