Iron Grace Roberts
winotracy... story?

Before one of our previous cruises, we used one of those "find your pirate name" websites. You plug in information and get a name. That's mine

OMG!!! It's the DREAD PIRATE ROBERTS!!!

Congrats Tracey! Won't take too long to get hooked on it.

Fiona

Thanks, Fiona!! I think you are right...tonight we are listening to something called the email show!

I listen to them at work while I eat my lunch or after 5pm when most people have left. It's takes my mind away from the fact that I'm actually still here. Where, or where is my lottery win???

DH usually listens at work via his ipod. I think his ipod is the only one in the world that has never had a song downloaded to it! It is strictly for disney podcasts only!

I finally committed to the Podcast Cruise. Just made my deposit. At this point, since it's just me and not my DH or a friend going, the single occupancy rate was brutal so I went with a Category 11. Hopefully, I can upgrade to an ocean view.

Tracy, you can list my name on the front page.

Looking forward to meeting everyone; well, at least some of you. (just kidding)

Can you tell us how many rooms are booked without telling us WHO is booked?

 

[winotracy]

Sorry, I can't. That is something I must leave up to Pete or the other podcast crew to share. I can tell you that there are quite a few not listed.

Do you realize it's only 24 days until we will be in the 300's????

Is that all?

Hey, it's easier if you break it up into little bite-sized pieces!

[CarolynNC]

Checking in to see what's going on. I don't want to miss too much pre-trip planning. I see we have more cruisers.

deposit down and now all we have to do is wait ....i just cant wait for more info about the fun stuff...

Welcome to the DIS and welcome to the cruise.

Welcome and I'll keep my fingers crossed for your upgrade. I figured I needed a balcony. I'm a tad bit claustrophobic so I need space. Someone a few pages back posted they had a friend looking to split a cabin. That might be an option if you're looking to save funds. I've shared convention hotel space with someone I corresponded with on a message board. It took a leap of faith but worked out in the end.

I love my privacy too much. Actually, horrible as this sounds, I am really looking forward to taking a break from being a great wife, a wonderful mother, an outstanding sister, a responsible manager . . . I get to veg out if I want.

Thanks everyone for the welcome.

Thanks everyone for the welcome.

I totally understand. I just wanted to point it out in case you were worried about the solo rate. I'm paying the solo rate too and feel the same way about my time alone. It will be nice to answer to nobody and from the sound of this group I may need a place to hide.

I've just been over on the budget board seeing what's going on in the world of finance. Maybe I should rethink my options! (Caveat - I swear I'm not charging against my future....just quickly depleting my travel savings account. ) I plan on winning the $230,000,000 lottery drawing tonight so I should have plenty of discretionary spending money.

OK - I'm taking that personally. You're PAYING for your first drink. The rest will depend on how long the supply lasts with "this group." (JK)

rlduvall- The room ain't gonna matter (sorry if anyone is offended by the lack of grammaticalistic integrity) as much as the Killer Parties that Capt Werner & Co. will throw... I value my privacy highly, too, but I'm convinced that EVERYONE on this cruise will have fun, no matter what form that may take...

There may be room left in the cistern...then again...
