DECEMBER 6, 2009 Winter WONDERland sailing!!!

[ThePhantomsGirl]

Thanks to Shari taking the time to do some photos while we were at the park on Tuesday, I now have a photo on the website.

Actually, they do make it easier. One, to tie a face to posts, and second, for recognizing people. While we were in the park (Epcot) we knew some cruises from our 2010 cruise would be there. We didn't know what the parents looked like, but they had put a photo of their twin girls.

Towards the end we finally saw them thanks to recognizing the girls from the photo. (made a little easier by the fact that they were twins)

Go ahead - be brave! Me, who HATES photos of herself just did one.

Smiles,
Holly

Hey everyone, be sure to check out this article in USA Today about Disney Cruise Line unveiling 3-D theaters on the Wonder (next Friday) and the Magic (Dec. 6 - my B'Day!).

I can't wait to hear some of the reports from this new feature. Might make me want to take time out of other cruise activities to actually see a movie.

I think Shari and I discussed seeing one when we were on the 2007 cruise, but we kept getting busy with other stuff.

Smiles,
Holly

I think that's the first time I didn't watch at least one movie on a Disney cruise, but yeah, there are usually better things to do that take priority. We'll have to check this out though.

Have we lost our leader (disneegrl4eva)? Only one post on this thread since returning from DL? It's going to take a lot of group effort to keep this thread active and visible so the newbies can find it!

In just a few weeks, after this year's MouseFest cruise, I expect many to pop on here saying they booked onboard for this sailing next year. Let's not get lost among hundreds of cruise threads!

How is everyone doing?

no Im still here but right now this cruise is the last thing on my mind and coming on here just reminds me of how critical things are for me where this is concerned...my dd got in a car accident last weekend (not this past one) and my car is totaled...now I have to dip into my trip savings to get another car...I dont want to finance because frankly I cant handle the pymts they want to charge on top of having to get full coverage...Im hoping that it is not going to cause a problem for me with this trip and all and that I will be able to recover the amount I have to take out by the time the trip comes but I just dont want to think about it right now...Im sorry but keeping this thread from being lost is not a priority for me...I hope I dont come across as being inconsiderate or rude Im just really not feeling this right now...I have the posts set to show up on my email and I look at them everytime they come up but I just dont have the drive to be on here much...I hope you understand...you and Holly do a good job of being on here so just know that when Im up to it I will be back and if something happens that I cannot go after all I will let you know but Im not giving up hope..Ive waited a long time for this and Im going to do my best to get there....

I understand. My post was not directed only at you, which is why I said "group effort." But I was inquiring about you personally because you are missed and were the thread starter.

I am so sorry about your situation. I can only imagine the stress you must be under. I hope your DD is alright and that everything will work out for you. I also hope that in the not-too-distant future you'll be popping in to tell us that all is well. Meanwhile, I and perhaps some others will do the best we can to keep this thread from disappearing. Take care.

I am sorry to hear what you are going through. But things happen, at least your daughter is fine and that is the most important thing. We have canceled twice before because of family emergency's and that is not a fun thing to do, but things always work themselves out. So keep positive

I promise to post.I get so busy at times with the boys and their schedules, they have tennis, basketball, swimming, karate, piano,baseball and oh yeah once a week they have grief counseling . Plus my job, at

the end of the day I collapse. .

 

[ThePhantomsGirl]

Ah, Life does get busy!

We should also get a lot of traffic after this year's MouseFest cruise and we want to make sure people can find it.

AND soon we'll be in the "less than a year" benchmark - amazing how times flies.

Smiles,
Holly

Have a great weekend everyone

 

[msgoofy]

Have a great weekend yourself.

The cold weather is finally here in Indiana. I think we were spoiled by the 70 degree weather we had for a while.

No snow yet, but we have had some flurries. That must mean Christmas is just around the corner!

 

[taswira]

We've had a few cold nights (in the 40s) and cool days (50s and 60s) - at least for Florida - LOL. It's been a welcome change for me as I prefer four seasons. But the sun is shining and the temp seem to be rising today.

It has never felt like Thanksgiving or Christmas to me here if it ends up being 80+ and bright sun!

 

[ThePhantomsGirl]

Yes, it's been cold here!

I've been busy as I work retail (in a store that includes groceries) so I've been super busy. Had a bad sinus/cold to boot - so haven't been on here much.

I DID sneak in two times to see Twilight - the midnight showing on Thursday/Friday, and again last evening. A much needed break from reality!

Wow, some people in my neighborhood ALREADY have full Christmas decorations/lights up...

Smiles,
Holly

 

[msgoofy]

Just wanted to wish all my fellow cruiser a Happy Thanksgiving!

 

[clarasunnyside]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone I wish you good health, peace and lots of love

 

[taswira]

Happy Thanksgiving to all and may the only one really stuffed be the turkey!

Enjoy the day.

 

[taswira]

Just want to let everyone know that I will probably be off-line until Wednesday morning because I am headed down to Contemporary Resort through Tuesday. If we get any new cruisers for our list, please let them know I will add them when I return. Thanks!
