"Double Dip Delight" 09.27.2008 - Take 3!

It's actually two different aspects of Disney Transportation (although DCL buses are often used as ME's on non-transport days). The ship to Pop is a DCL bus. The Pop to the airport is ME. I don't think you really need special tags for either. The ME tags normally given are more for the arrival portion (it tells them that (1) they are WDW bags and (2) which resort area). You would not need ME tags for the departure portion of the trip. So, after looking at this, I'm thinking you would not be issued tags at all.

Thanks! So, no transfer passes or anything either? I've never done any of the Disney transportation, can you tell?


I'm contemplating driving back to my house today (I'm dog/house sitting for my parents this week) to see if the documents have arrived, but it would be a definite bummer if I made a special trip for Nothing!

So silly me went to click on the thread and I accidently unsubscribed to it! What was I thinking?

Thanks for opinions for shoes. I'll probably just go with what I have...I mean I love shoes, don't get me wrong, but I don't want too many...it will take up precious space for my DCL merchandise that I'll be buying! LOL!!!!

Stacy sorry about your friend, I agree with Kimberly, focus on Us, we are NEEDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Workout: I hope to get to the gym, its been a bad summer with the kids home and when They go back Sept 3, the gym is my first stop after I drop them off! IF we cant make it to the gym maybe we can have a walking group? I think one deck has a "track", I belive 3t imes around is 1 mile, we can pick a time and if anyone is interested be there, if you cant make it NO WORRIEs! Anyone up for this? We can pick a time? I am thinking a morning walk? A ship is so peaceful during this time!

Miami Vice: YUUUUMMMMM, my favorite drink

Congrats to the upgraders, still no documents here in Pa but no upgrade either!

I am in the process of washing all our new cruise clothes, i mnoth from today we will be on our way to the airport

Have a Great Tuesday!

P.S. My 2000th post WOOOOHOOOO

Yes, yes, yes, let's do a walking group. I love to walk and where better than a beautiful ocean view? Let's all pick a time, place, etc. and I am in.

Make sure you do the 'bend and snap' when you go to pick it up!

 

[crissichef]

It must be a girl thing, althought my dh wont wear a shirt unless its been washed, he doesnt care about his pants, but shirts are a must! He works in a clothing warehouse (Marshall's)





Rmember is always 5 o'clock somewhere... a wise wondeful man once said and besides what about mamosa... the more the merrier and the drunker the better

I have washed most of them, I think a few will need ironing. ]

God Bless my dear Pop-Pop. We will have to raise a toast to him to start the cruise! Manhattan's anyone (We call the Caruso's after my late Great Pop-Pop)!

Sorry to all who are having bad times with family illnesses and stress! We all need this vacation and it cannot come fast enough!!!

You know I am in for the walking.........cannot gain the weight back......if we want to eat, then we will have to walk it off !

Not sure how far down I can bend but I can definitely work on that snap!

 

[ntheory]

As promised, here is our FE and pillowcases from the sewing godess herself TIffany

Absolutely awesome!! Love them.

*spew* Alright, Elle.

Crissi

Hmmmmmmm .... What's that???

 

[Magic3forme]

the walking group sounds like fun! that sounds like something for our memo boards.

Bend and snap.



Shell: you need more disposable clothes so you can pack more shoes. and buy more stuff.


Denise: awesome f/e and pillowcases.

 

[flower91882]

*spew* Alright, Elle.

It is the end of my name!

 

[zweihund]

I was actually planning some morning runs. Is that so wrong??

Maybe we can do a running group too......though it may just be the two of us I'll be doing a few because something posessed me to sign up for a half marathon in December. HOLIDAY RUNNING? I am officially insane.

Side Note: got our cabin number.... Looks like we wont be giving tours of the Walt Suite Got cabin 1071... Can we be any lower in the ship LOL. I was hoping for an upgrade and got it.. cat 10 from a 12 LMAO. TOLD yall I dream big remember! So looks like im down on the 1st floor all alone.. ??? BOOOHOO OH WELL RIGHT guess yall can come by and visit when ya tender off an on LMAO Make sure you stop by and leave a note... show me some love LOL

At least it's a room with a view! And it will be quiet

I plan to run every other morning. A trade off to not worring to much about what I eat and drink on board. I can't imagine a more relaxing run than around the deck of a luxury cruise liner. Something I am actually really looking forward to.

Ok, that's three! I'm a slow runner though, so you guys might do laps around me

I really need to start looking at what I'm going to be packing to take with me. Ladies, how many pairs of shoes are you taking, especially for dinner? Are sandal type shoes OK for dinners? That is what I was planning on wearing for most dinners with the exception of formal night. So, I was planning on taking the sandals, sneakers (which I'll wear), a pair of dressy shoes and my water shoes. I can't believe I'm freaking out about shoes! LOL!!!

I'm a shoe minimalist on trips. I'm taking:

• black strappies, for formal and semi-formal nights
• my strappy brown sandals for general dining room wear
• croc flip flops for the pool and beach
• croc sandals for excursions
• running shoes

They all pack nice and small, except the running shoes (which I need to remember to pack in a plastic bag, so my luggage does not smell like my running shoes!)

So, I went home for lunch today, I looked up and saw the UPS man driving toward my house, and then.............................he just kept right on driving! Still no cruise Docs for me

Awwww, that stinks! I don't have mine yet either.

I wanna walk, but how do I do that without spilling my cosmo? I'll be easy to spot, the one still hung over from last night with a fresh drink in my hand smoking! That's my kind of exercise. LOL

Two words: SIPPY CUP.

Make sure you do the 'bend and snap' when you go to pick it up!

Maybe a walking And a running group. James will be joining the running group as well. So that's, what, 4?

 

[anc22]

I'm in for walking/running, but I'm not too sure about doing it at 8:00 a.m.
I will have to see how things go

 

[Andromeda9mm]

Is there anyone out there besides myself who hasn't received documents from a WDW resort you are staying at before the cruise??

We haven't received them yet, but we're in Utah ... so ... ??

I hear ya on that.. lol

E is in for running with you crazy people.. I may join ya.. at least a few times LOL ... walking for sure.. I say the earlier the better 730-745.

 

[pit303]

I'm in for the walking group not so much the running group.

No documents in Pa yet

Maureen

 

[cyndifan]

I *might* be up for walking some. It depends on how early & which day as we have a couple of excursions on the early side.

 

[Fizzgig]

Fatcat, didn't you say something about National and a need for a shuttle? Shirley (from The Perfect Gift) is saying National doesn't have a shuttle and taxi fare is $20 from the port to National.

You might want to price out the other rental companies. I know that cab fare is about half my rental car price from Thrifty.

 

[scoutsmom99]

Goodness I'm having troubles keeping up here. The weather finally cooled off here and now today I got a horrendous cold Better now than I guess on Vacation! Also for anyone who is renting a car my car rentals went down quite a bit today.

Well, I'm still hoping to book on board and then transfer!

Me too!!

Denise - Your shirts and magnets look great!

(now this is all dependant on when I get a room.. Guessing they dont want to upset a lot of people by posting that rm #8030 is taken by muah LOL )

thanks for the updates Drea

Side Note: got our cabin number.... Looks like we wont be giving tours of the Walt Suite Got cabin 1071... Can we be any lower in the ship LOL. I was hoping for an upgrade and got it.. cat 10 from a 12 LMAO.

Maybe they are just waiting to surprise you at the port!

Who works out on a cruise? My idea of heavy lifting is carrying the shopping bags back on the boat or putting my martini glass up to my lips!!!!

Mine too!!!

oh, yea, and Today... I received a call from DCL.. we will NOT be getting the private room for Dinner because we only have 9 adults instead of 11 since 2 had to cancel sooooooo now we have NO reservation for the double birthday celebration at Palo..

Ughhhhhhhh.... I just want to go back to bed...

That stinks Stacy

Second - I'm anxiously waiting for my docs too!!!! I know there's not alot in there but it just makes it seem that much closer!!!!!!!!

Me too! Yesterday the UPS truck teased me drove up the street and then back down without stopping at the house. He came again today, and stopped!!! But, he was only bringing the personalized picture M&M's I ordered for my brother's wedding

Is there anyone out there besides myself who hasn't received documents from a WDW resort you are staying at before the cruise??

Are you on a package deal? If you are on a package deal you should. If you just booked a room only you won't be getting anything from them.

I really need to start looking at what I'm going to be packing to take with me. Ladies, how many pairs of shoes are you taking, especially for dinner? Are sandal type shoes OK for dinners? !

Probably a lot. LOL I think I have plans for like 10 pairs of sandals/flip-flops, water shoes, tennis shoes. I am a shoeaholic though just see my tag.

Ok Ladies...those of you who have 'curves'....I just came from Avenue. they are having an incredible sale. I got skorts for $5-$10. They had some cute sundresses for $19. shorts for $10....It appears that they are attempting to move their summer stock to make way for winter items.

Wouldn't you know I drove all the way out there on Sunday to return some shapewear, but didn't really find any summer clearance stuff If it wasn't so far away I would be tempted to go there again.

As promised, here is our FE and pillowcases from the sewing godess herself TIffany

They look great Denise. Tiffany your work is amazing. I finally decided on fabric and a scheme for mine on Sunday. I need to crank it out now!

I know they do not have a shuttle. But I have a free rental day coming.
