February 7, 2009 Western early check in!

[Michellepooh]

Hi everyone! Just checking in on all of my VVs! It looks like a lot of us are doing the bounceback offer. We were thinking of going in November, but thought it might be too close to our 1/31/10 Eastern, so we've decided to book for the 10/22 3 night. Of course this means I'll have to go to MNSSHP while we're there! I think we'll probably only do a night or two at WDW because we will be there for a week in conjunction with the January cruise. I'm so excited!!!

Hey everyone! How goes it? It's been 2 whole months as of today since we stepped on the Magic. Wow, time has flown!

We are officially on the December 17 three night for the bounceback. I'm thrilled because that's Camden's birthday and he will be so surprised. We've decided we'll tell them about the WDW trip (4 nights prior to the cruise) sometime this fall but we're not telling them that we're going on the cruise until we pull up the port. They'll think we're leaving the World to go home. But we won't!

I miss checking in here every morning. I hope life has been treating everyone well!

Hi everyone-

Glad to see that so many of you are able to do the bounce back. We too are able to swing it, we booked for the November 19th cruise (the week before Thanksgiving). Paxton will be attending a new school next year and they operate on a year round schedule, but that means she'll be off of school for two weeks in November, so that works out perfect for us.

As long as we're making the trek from Minnesota and paying for airfare, we decided to make a week of it and spend a few days at the parks. We typically travel in Feb/March so this will be a little different for us but I have heard others say that November is a great time for the parks. Still warm but hardly any people. The park tickets are the hardest part for us to swing. I love, love, love Disney but it is so very expensive!

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying spring.

I'm totally horrified!! I forgot my password to get on here and had to reset it!! It actually took me a little work just to get to this thread...sad sad..So Im just dropping in to say hello to everyone who still visits here. I hope you are all on Facebook now! I'm so glad we made it to Mexico before the "swine flu" pandemic, how crazy is that. I think the ships are going to Nassau instead of Mexico for a while. I haven't booked my bounceback yet.. Hoping for December but I'm sure it will be last minute so I'll let you all know when it happens. So I met a new friend from NY on the Disney Facebook page. He's doing the western cruise in July and I'm reliving my cruise through him, (even though he's a Yankees fan). He asks me all sorts of cruise questions and it's so much fun remembering but I do miss it and all of you. I promise I'll be back soon, I just have to remember how to get here.

Hello Matey's! Hope everyone is well! I am finally booking my bounce back. Had to make sure I could swing it. We're looking@ Nov. 22nd. Then we'll spend Thanksgiving in Florida. Maybe crash @ Michelle V's house! LOL.

That cruise actually sails Sun. to Wed. So the kids only miss three days of school!
Miss checking this thread everyday!

We were talking about the cruise last night and I got all nostalgic. You can almost see the dust blowing through this site....I miss you all. We are returning for the bounceback on October 22nd, we will probably go down the weekend before but no plans or reservations yet. I think that we will stay off site or in the DDD area unless I can find a very sweet deal. I see that you are going Michelle; is anyone else? Have you joined the new meet?

Take care all.

But I did get what I had originally wanted, which was to see the ship decorated for Christmas
So we will be sailing December 10th followed by 3 days @ Bay Lake.. woo hoo!
