Disney Wonder In Charleston, Sc !

Teri...I knew you or Mary would get pictures.......lol

I never watch the Charleston news...but guess I'll have to tonight....might just get to see some LIVE pictures....

We went to college in Myrtle Beach, my folks live there and our best friends. We've visited Charleston many times and it is one of my favorite cities. I think it would be an abosulet hoot to dock there, and who knows, with the way things are going there in the Caribbean, we just might on our 9/25 sailing.

Why is the ship in charleston???
I wish Disney would keep us more informed... are they gonna continue this route for next Sunday's cruise????

aerycichton, given the fact that one hurricane just finished, and another is currentl battering ports of call on all sides of the Caribbean, Disney (and other lines) are forced to make last minute changes to itineraries. In many cases they won't know until closer to a proposed docking date if the port is able to accept ships or is there is anything left to dock for. I can only imagine after Ivan stops pounding Grand Cayman it will take some time before all of the excursions and activities are up and running. Even the current sailing of the Magic still isn't sure if they'll get to CC yet.

Any cruise is subject to last minute alterations, it is the nature of the beast. There have been a number of times the ships have not been able to stop at Grand Cayman due to rough seas that cause safetly issues with tendering or because of high winds they couldn't dock at CC. So until they hire a few psychics or get really good crystal balls, it is unlikely that they would inform you of a port change a week ahead of time, other than knowing an island has been closed.

There have been a lot of comments about what Disney should be doing through these circumstances and in a great many instances the expectation is highly unrealistic. Everyone cruising for the next 6 weeks or so needs to be open and flexible, cause it doesn't look like the season is going to lighten up any time soon.
 
We just got home from downtown and Mt. Pleasant to see her off and even on a rainy day like today, she is beautiful!! My two year old started crying when she was out of sight saying "I''m going to miss the cruise ship." Good thing we're sailing the Magic on September 25!!
I took some pictures--will post them when my DH gets home!!
 
Awhhhh.....she was gone by the time I got off work. *Sigh*

Just 26 more days! We're cruisin' on Oct. 9!!! :)
 
DARN! I KNEW I should have checked the boards at lunch time!I work at MUSC downtown and could have run over to Rutledge Tower for a great view of the port! I drove home to James Island (heading West) and did not look in my rearview mirror!!!

BUT...It's OK since I will be seeing the Magic in JUST 18 DAYS!!!!
 
Gosh, there sure are a lot of Charleston folks on the boards! I must agree, it is a really beautiful city. This is the 2nd time we have lived here (Hugo ran us out last time we lived here) and I love almost everything about living here.
Two of our DIS friends who will be sailing with us in 18 days will be visiting us tomorrow for 4 days. They are from Germany and have never been to S.C. before. I am looking forward to showing off all the things there are to see here!:teeth:
 
I just posted pictures of the Wonder. Mary we could have met downtown and had Dinner together.

I actually sat and watched the Charleston news I think at 5...and nothing was shown....I was VERY disappointed....they probably showed her and I missed her......

Going to look at your pics now..........
