[lindakmonty]

Welcome aboard, pinkie and lindakmonty!!!!

Thank you I am getting so excited! I absolutely love the Magic and now I can't wait to see the Wonder. I think w/all the holidays and everything going on, it'll be Feb. before we know it I can't wait!!

Tomorrow (Monday, November 6th) is the opening day of onboard reservations for returning cruisers on the 2-4-2007 Wonder! I'm hoping for a nice Palo reservation on the day at sea...It was wonderful on our last cruise to have a parents-only dinner to unwind with on our last evening on the Wonder. We had a magnificent sunset, a great waitress (Julie from the UK), and absolutely delicious food.

We tend to like to Wonder more than the Magic. Although only one year younger than the Magic, it seems newer..... and I like the decor better as well.

I've been getting that, too! Can't book the online ressies!!!!

If you get error messages, keep trying!

I started at 3am and had to re-log in and re-retrieve my cruise information dozens of times. It took 40 minutes of persistence through the various error messages to make our 4 onboard / shore reservations...last year it took about 3 minutes.

Wow those are great times for Brunch! I'm a bit upset because we haven't made our final payment yet because DS18's college tuition for the Spring semester is also due this month, so we won't be paying the final payment until the end of November (the 21s), so I can't book anything yet!!

But I hope everyone else gets the reservations they want!!

 

[yellownovawife]

Hooray! I got all registered and I got all booked in at the spa.

I really could not believe that they asked if I want to let my 12 year old be allowed to sign herself out of the kid's club. I really, really could not believe that they apparantly offer this option for ages 8-12. Who would want their 8 year old wandering unsupervised around a cruise ship out on the ocean??? Even for the 12 year old we said no. She will not have any need to be off on her own -we want to be with her or know where she is and who she is with.

I know. me either. I didn't know your final payment must have been made. I just don't keep that much cash around or ready to access easily. For good reason...Disney would have every penny of it so I'll have to wait til next week to make that payment and HOPE for some ressies. Good luck!! I hope there is something left for us!

Ain't it the truth...Mickey will get your money!! I'd be scared to total up how much we've spent on Disney-related things.

A friend of mine refers to Disney as "the Mou$e Trap."

The way I describe it is......


Disney has a great way of seperating you from your money.


Once you get your head wrapped around the idea that its OK to spend $45 on a $4 T-shirt.... everything else is downhill.

Thats the rear reason for charging on a KTTW card... hard for you to keep track of... until you get the bill!

Hello Everyone!! I had a question...... I just disovered that since we used our DVC points for the cruise we never actually paid for our transfers from the Wilderness Lodge to the port and then from the port back to the Wilderness Lodge after the cruise. It is $60.00 per person so for our family that means $240.00. Does anyone reccomend a car service? I would like to get to the port early. Last Feb. we took DVC transfers and never got on the ship until 3:30pm. Any info. would be greatly appreciated. I think for the price of DVC transfers we would get a car service for almost the same price and get to the ship earlier!!!
