"Double Dip Delight" 09.27.2008 - Chapter 4!

If the pool is green or my mattress is sagging, I *will* be disappointed, and this is my first cruise ever.

I too would not like the sagging mattress and would definitely say something or look to me moved. I'm sure they will have the pool under control especially by the time we sail.

That is Me, Jason, Hadley, Dave, Marika & Rio all as characters from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the party. (Also we just happened to bump into Kimberly in Buzz Lightear's exit, too!!)

Awesome pic!! Gald you had fun.

Arin,

I think we are doing one of the submarine tours........probably Nautilus. The only bad thing is it is 9:15AM but oh well.

Crissi

We were thinking of doing that, but it's so expensive.

Boarding Passes ~ go on lline to your airlines web site...log in and follow the directions. You can do this 24 hrs. prior to your flight.

I do ours tonight at 6pm......

Thanks, I just did it

If anyone is looking for something to do in Grand Cayman I just booked Stringray City thru www.Mobydicktours.com. They just called me and said the weather looks perfect.

We booked the one at Castaway Cay. I wondering if we should change it? Anybody ever done either one of these?

Hi everyone,
Just giving a quick update. We left NC at 5:27am and got here at 4:59PM. Long day in the car. DS was absolutely wonderful for such a long trip. He only got cranky once and none of us argued LOL Best family traveling in history.

we had a wonderful breakfast at McD and that kept us full for most of the day. We stopped off for a filling lunch at Chick-fil-a and tonight we will be dining with relatives in their home where we are staying until Sat.

Glad the trip went well. Oh and I just tried out Chick fil a today.. yum!! I went for their breakfast sandwiches or burrito and they had closed.. 2 min. earlier. They were only surving lunch. I tried the chicken strips.. pretty good.

Where are the pics posted? I want to see this scary pool

Yeah, I'm really not that concerned. With as much money as people (my mom ) paid for this trip, I have a feeling that they will do whatever is necessary to make our trip wonderful. Disney isn't Disney for no reason.

The submarine tour isn't that much more than the pirate encounter was..........it wasn't cheaper for the adults if you booked direct, only the kids but we would be making that up in cab fare.

Hmmm.....well, I have to agree with one of the posters. The green pool is gross, and I would have been sorely disappointed if I had gotten there early only to find I couldn't swim! But as far as the staterooms go, I don't care about a few dings on the furniture or some white specks on the verandah, honestly. The new TV's look pretty nice though!

I'm sure everything will be ironed out by Saturday.
Sometimes it's not so good to be the VERY first after drydock, eh?

Well... add us to the list of hurt /sick people. I got a call at lunch time that Braden (6 years) was hurt at school. The lady in the office said I needed to take him to urgent care. A little boy pushed him off the slide and he fell and hit his head. He ended up getting 2 staples in the back of his head..

Soooo, Denise.. or any other RN's.. anybody feel like taking staples out in a week??

Nasty little boy.....what a way to start the school year.

Just printed out our boarding passes for tomorrow......I can't believe it's here already. I couldn't sleep last night...was still awake at 2am. Hopefully, I'll sleep tonight after being busy today. Cleaned the house, done laundry, made some sweets and meals for hubby, paid the bills, checked my lists three times and talked to my sisters, aunts and son for last good byes. I would just like to take a shower and head for the airport right now......

Does anyone else feel strange how everyday someone else leaves and we are left behind???? Something like a trickle effect.....

I am NOT watching the weather channel until I get back home. Can't stand worrying about storms.

OH, one last question. Do we need to sign the back of our MNSSHP cards?

Rambling I know.........

 

[crissichef]

We are really worried about flying on Friday night...........do you think we are OK????????????? I really hope so!!!

Good night to all who are still here.........

LOL!!!! Yes! It does. Seems like it is getting quieter and quieter as the days go by.


I'm not worrying. I know we're going to have a blast regardless of what the weather does.

I always do, but it may not be necessary.

We fly out tommorw around 6:30pm... We are a little worried.. but that is why we always leave at least a day earlier then the cruise.. As long as we make it to MNSSHP Friday night!!!

Ohhh Noesssssssssssss!!! How rude of that little brat.. Doesn't he realize we have a Cruise to be on? Ughhh

I'm sorry your son was hurt, and Thankful it wasn't alot worse..

 

[MagicMe]

Yes it really is strange how there are fewer and fewer people stuck here at home while everyone else is either already enjoying their vacation or soon on their way!

Well, one more day of work for me!! I am hosting my women's group tomorrow night (I know, what was I thinking back in June when I volunteered????). I'm doing some last minute wash tonight and most everything is packed except for some last minute stuff.

Now just keeping my fingers crossed that the weather will cooperate and not delay our take-off. I have a party to go to!!!!!!

What is the website? The one I was looking at was $79 for adults. That would be nice if it was cheaper.

Thank you!

OH NO about your son, poor baby, Matthew had staples last summer, i didnt take them out but I am sure I could if need be
We booked the nautilus right thru the disney site, I think it was less than $50 per adult, we are doing the 9:15-10;45, a little earlier than we wanted but then we can do some shopping and get back on the ship for lunch, check it out on disneycruise.com

He might not need them out until after the cruise. Not sure. I am a little scared think about taking them out

Oh and I tried to just sign up for nautilus but it said we can't book anything anymore.. darn!! Thanks anyways.

Well I am off to Orlando tomorrow. We are leaving here at 4am then a 4 hour drive then a plane ride from Ca. to Orlando.. yuck.. LONG day. Anyways, see you all there. I will be ready for the drink of the day with this shoulder pain.. aughhh!!

Homemade spaghetti and salad yumm. After a swim in their private pool tonight we will play some type of board games and then off to a relaxing evening in our guest quarters.


Seriously thanks for all the prayers and good wishes. We ran into no trouble traveling. I'll be praying for safety for all and try to check in and catch up a little on the boards.

I'm so glad you guys made it ok with the little guy doing so well. We have today and then tomorrow we are in the hotel for the night (as if I'll sleep right?) and then off to the airport.

If the pool is green or my mattress is sagging, I *will* be disappointed, and this is my first cruise ever.

hmmm surely since this is disney they will be able to turn some of this over either during the trip or this weekend betweeen sailings? Hopefully?

I think I read somewhere that they close out all advance ressies 2 or 3 days before sailing! That means we are really close. You should be able to sign up onboard.

The website was www.nautilus.ky

I checked the hurricane center this morning............both storms are no RED!!!! Oh no!! Are they saying anything about the storms affecting air travel? Where can we find out?
