Beth,
We've finally fixed our PC problems at home. My DD-11 Autumn wants to know if she can email your children.

 

[callahanjulie10]

We were wondering if you were still with us on May 25! Glad to see that everything is up and going- Did you book with DU?

Bbethparsons is my SIL- if Autumn would like, she could e-mail my DD (10) Lindsey also. Counting down- 46 more days!

Ooops!!
Sorry about that....I didn't realize that you were both in PCB.

Have you decided on any excursions yet?

Bill

 

[callahanjulie10]

My BIL knows Key West really well- so he is in charge of that port.

In Cozumel- we booked through Shoretrips.com the horseback riding to the ruins excursion. They are picking us up at the port.

We haven't decided on GC yet- we are thinking of renting a jeep and just going it on our own. My DD does not like salt water!!! so she didn't want to do the stingray excursion. I think my SILs family might try a beach but nothing set in stone.

I think that we are just going to go with the flow and try to relax-

I think we need to keep this thread going to help count down to our magical cruise.

IrishCowboy, where are you staying night before cruise. There are several of us staying at the Radisson and have talked about setting up something Friday night to meet those that are staying there.

See you all soon!!!

Pam

 

[BWVPam]

Lets see if this works. This should provide a countdown to our cruise.

 

[Bbethparsons]

Sure Cory is 10 almost 11. E-mail westbayboy@aol.com. Emily is 7, 8 by the cruise. Her e-mail is westbaygal@aol.com. They would love to hear from her again. Thanks! Beth

Pam,
We're flying down late Thursday evening and spending Thursday and Friday at the Amerisuites near the airport. We're planning on spending Friday at the Magic Kingdom.

We've stayed at the Radisson on our 2 previous cruises and enjoyed it. Sorry that we'll miss out on meeting everyone there, but we will definately try to make any DIS meets scheduled on board. (Maybe Saturday and Sunday??)

Bill

 

[IrishCowboy]

Beth,
Great!!! I'll have her do something tomorrow.

Bill

 

[BWVPam]

Bill,

We look forward to meeting you and your family on-board. Sorry you won't be at Radisson night before. I have two kids Dale (11 almost 12) and Ashley 7. Looks like there will be lots of kids from the DIS boards (mostly girls).

Almost there.

Pam

This will be our third Disney cruise. Wish I had known about dis.boards earlier. I am thankfull to all who have posted helpful info. I've learned lots.
We, too, are VERY excited about this cruise and the new itinerary. Can't wait to read feed-back from May 11 cruisers!
It seems that most post-ers have younger children. Ours are twenty-somethings, but all five of us are kids at heart.
We are flying to Orlando May 21, staying in a time-share until Saturday am. Thanks to your suggestions we are renting a car and driving to the port to get an early start. Your packing ideas have been helpful also. I am definitely an over-packer. I'll be wearing a green ribbon on embarkation day and I hope to meet many of you on-board.
I'd love to hear from other "kids at heart" before we sail!
To those taking their first cruise, check out the Navigators ahead of time. It will really help you prepare, get oriented, and enjoy the cruise from day 1.

Just checking in to say hello....We too will be at the Radisson the nite before. Let me know what time and where we are all going to meet???Maybe pool side Friday evening???

Again, I have plenty of lime green ribbon if anyone needs some before we head to the terminal....

Colleen

 

[IrishCowboy]

Welcome!

Glad to have you with us! I know exactly how you feel about these boards. They have saved me thousands of dollars and provided many tips to prepare us and make the cruise more enjoyable.

 

[BWVPam]

Colleen,

Hey, that would be great if you brought along some ribbon. I keep thinking I will get by the fabric store to see if I can find some, but it hasn't happened yet. Do you have any kids traveling and if so, what are their ages? Poolside sounds fun, post any good ideas anyone has.

Take care and see everyone soon!

Pam

 

[Ckerridan]

I will be with my daughter, age 5 1/2 years.....
We went to the cruise a year ago, and everyone from these boards seemed to meet at the pool at the Radisson (Irish Cowboy will second that), and then we also met up in line to board the ship....
I will have roll of lime green ribbon (I still have it saved from last year)....

Let me know what is on the agenda...

I just noticed that you live in Chandler. I graduated high school in Casa Grande and my folks now live in Queen Valley. I am over in Arizona a lot. Spent a lot of time in Chandler while I was in high school. It sure has changed since then.

Pam

 

[Ckerridan]

Pam,

I have only lived in Chandler about seven years...It has even changed since I have been here.
We now have a mall, with a Nordstrom....It is called Chandler Fashion Center...

Are you sure you didn't mean Queen Creek,not Queen Valley????

Queen Creek is the only area now in the East VAlley where you can actually have some land. My husband and I are thinking about buying some land in Queen Creek, and relocating. It would only be about twenty minutes from where we are now....

Are you at the Radisson the nite before, because I would love to meet you and talk some more.
