First Ever DISUnplugged Podcast Cruise Use Multiquote, It Saves Nine

[DVCsince02]

yikes! Did you have storms? We've just had a gray drizzle-y day here.

No, just seems to happen a lot lately. Luckily it was only an hour this time.



QUESTION

When are the fireworks on our cruise? Pirate night?

 

[firsttimemom]

let me amend that- it's every GIRL sleepover we've ever had. We've never had problems w/ the boy. He's got 2 friends over tonight. They were going to watch the kids choice awards but I think they're having nerf gun wars instead. They'll play the wii until 12 or so and that will be that.

yes- and they're SPECTACULAR!

Have fun Alicia!

We're off to go see Monsters vs Aliens in a few with eight, 8 & 9 year old girls. Should be interesting.

Good luck to you!
Here's hoping you come home with your sanity intact!

I'm looking forward to the fireworks. When we took our 7-day Eastern cruise (years ago) they didn't do this. Then we did a 3 night - and they never did them on the 3 nighters. So this will be something we get to experience for the first time. I can't imagine how neat that will be.

Practically the whole time you cruise, at night in the distance, you can see other cruise ships lit up far away on the horizon. That's beautiful too. I can't imagine fireworks over the water.

That's crazy! It is so much easier not to change! Say you start in Miami go to
St. Thomas 1 hour ahead, then go to Bahamas I think your going back an hour, then I'm coming from two hours behind to start with!

This may be one thing I wouldn't like if I was to take a 7 day cruise.
My last cruise was 8 nights and 5 different islands.

On my 7 night Western Caribbean Disney cruise there was one time change. They reminded us to turn our clocks/watches back one hour before going to bed. And then on the way back we turned them ahead one hour before bed. This way the ship's time was the same as the islands time. I don't remember it being confusing in any way. It was my first cruise ever and I didn't have any problems. As far as I know there will not be any time changes on our cruise as we are only going to the Bahamas.

I always say I don't feel for the ones who inflict on themselves.
However I feel for you George!
Sambuca has gotten me good a couple of times in the past.
I just can't get past that to drink it anymore.
Hopefully you are feeling better now!

Kim you did a wonderful job this morning of standing in for Todd.
Keep it up!

Thank you, Katherine

woo hoo!!! DH and I were just talking about where we're going to have dinner. We have ressies for Kona but he suggested Jiko (he loooved it when we were there in Oct; I thought it was just ok). I fired back w/ narcoosees based on John and Kevin's experiences. 6 weeks can't come fast enough!

My FIL is a multi millionaire, but we love him to death. His kids are a bunch of *****s and my MIL is his second wife so we are his only real family that still talk to him. Long story..but he is great and loves my kids alot.

Perhaps that is what makes my FIL a D-Bag. He does not acknowledge my 2 year old daughter.... at all. He and his wife forgot her birthday last month. Completely forgot. He remembers my son but I think that is only because we named him after FIL. It's a sad story.

Cruise Anxiety Confession Time

I am very much looking forward to the cruise but as it is getting closer I am having major anxiety about how much I will feel the ship rock, especially at night. Our cabin is in the middle of the ship on deck 7, and I am realistic to the fact that the boat does move and we will feel some sort of rockiness but I have to admit the last cruise I went on (Norweign Dawn out of NYC) I was miserable at night completely anxiety stricken because I would freak out with every movement and swore I would never cruise again..... I have never gotten seasickness (knock wood) so that is not the issue...anyway I did get a prescription of ambien and xanax from my doctor and I will take it as a last resort..but overall how bad is it going to be, my mother keeps telling me the water is much less rocky when you do not leave out of the port from NYC....confession over!

I am having anxiety about the same thing. I have baaaad motion sickness (I get sick playing video games). So does my 2 year old. I worry about the drive down there and the ship. *sigh*

I'm still alive! Things are finally settling down. Phew! Getting in a few posts when I can.

Evening all. I learned something tonight. I'm quite the cheap date. Wait, I already knew that. James and I went to a Thai restaurant, where I had a yummy supper of Mongolian Chicken, but only ate the rice, onion, and sauce. Then he took me to the martini bar. I had the cocotini (yummy!!!!) and then I had the Mississippi Mud (yummy). One of them has me feeling quite, um, easy going tonight. I couldn't walk a straight line right now if my Disney cruise depended on it.

 

[Madi100]

Do you suppose that the new Hannah Montana movie will be playing on the ship in May? I know some of you might not think it would be any big deal, but my DD's would love it. (and I bet Kevin would too)

DH and I, along with Jen and her DH, have ADR's for Narcoosees the night of the Poly meet!

Can I just say that I have the BEST DH ever????





He willingly watched Twilight with me!!

I'll see your 'cheap date' reputation and raise it. I had 2 homemade diet cranberry and vodkas. Heavy on the vodka bcs we were trying to finish a bottle. Feeling a bit easy going myself.

So what was wrong with the chicken in the mongolian chicken?

DH watched with me last weekend. I think he likes better than me. I liked the book better.
