Dec 27/08 NYE Western Cruise - Really New Thread

[Marla Hellwig]

not planning on going into a park Friday - figure the MK will be a zoo by noon - hopefully Downtown Disney won't be that bad - nothing else can just veg on our balcony or Kara can swim some

I have clothes spread out all over my bed - and sorted by day / evening - now weeding out some of the stuff I don't think we will need

Kara picked out my hair color - not my normal 'shade' so should be interesting to say the least

Hi gang,

Crazy busy day. I'm wondering how Artie's doing.

I'm going to bed early tonight and get up early tomorrow to do my last minute running around. It feels like we're leaving tomorrow night, since we have to be at JFK at 4:30 AM, so I don't even know if we'll get any sleep tomorrow night.

Anyway, I'll check back in tomorrow. I have a glass of merlot and a cozy bed waiting for me.

 

[grimgrinnin]

Bye guys!

Bon Voyage!

Hope everybody gets to where they're going on time!

If anyone has some extra magnetic sticker stuff I'd love you to bring a little extra, I never found my stash, I had 4 rolls all MIA...

Travel Safe and see ya soon

Got the pedi done last night.. and I am THRILLED w/the color I picked. Very holidayish.

I hope Artie and family got there safely.. Maybe he will check in and let us know.

We are so ready to go.. Brian needs a vacation for sure, as do I.

Glad to hear that everyone is busy and getting ready.

I too am bummed that Tigg and Kaz arent coming.

Tigg we got the iron ons.. Brian likes them. We are going to iron one onto a small tote bag, and use that as our FE. How cool is that?!?!?!?

 

[CADZNYCHC]

Hi ya Kelly....that is SUCH a great idea...i was looking at those small tote bags & wondering if i could make it into a FE....can i BORROW your idea too?????? finished our tees....my 1st time working with transfer iron ons...so came out okay...couple of little spots....but for the sail away they wll be FINE....
leaving soon for hair appt & pedicure ...hopefully they have the crystals for my mickey icons

 

[disneykelly73]

Silly.. Of course you can!!!

I ran out of time to make one.. and really.. its just the two of us.. so.. no need for a slew of pockets.

Oh.. the one I got measurered 11"w x 8"h x 2" deep.. I believe. We put the iron on up to it.. and it fits nicely!!

 

[disneykelly73]

I just have to say.. I am sooo excited for this trip. I can not wait!!!

When are you flying out? We fly out Friday am!

[ohioworkingmom]

[disneykelly73]

Oh.. so you wont get there til 730 pm? We are supposed to get in around 1pmish.. I am hoping there are no delays. I want to go see the Osbourne Family lights at MGM and then head over to MK to see Main Street all lit up.. and the castle too of course.

Where are you guys all staying?

 

[disneykelly73]

Perfect.. Looks like a bunch of us are flying in Friday. I can not wait!! I really cant.

Its all I keep thinking about today at work.

 

[bellelinus]

We're due to arrive around 1 on Friday if there are no delays . . . and staying at the Hyatt Grand Cypress on Friday night . . . we will have a rental car . . . might go to Epcot the late afternoon/evening of Friday . . .

Merry Christmas everyone, and see you on the ship!

 

[ohioworkingmom]

we get to orlando around 6:30 on Friday, staying at the MCO Hyatt

 

[disneykelly73]

That is where we are staying as well.

I just tried to get a car on Priceline.. I offered $45 for an economy car, and was turned down. I want to go to WDW for the day once we get in.

How much do you think a cab is to and from WDW? I want to see if their price is BETTER than the car rental companies.. They all seem to want $100 or more for 10 hrs.

Merry Christmas And Happy New Years To Everyone
