From WDW To DL With Love - January 06, 2011

[Tracyvp]

Jeff, JenKatt's DH will be creating a web page for this cruise.

See, that's what happens when you don't take(have) time to read the whole thread before posting! Thanks to Jeff for agreeing to be our Webmaster!

That's okay. PM me your info when you get time and I'll list you on post #1. Thanks!

Hi, I have booked this cruise in a CAT 6...just me and my son. I will be leaving my DH and 2 DD's home... Daniel will be 21 when we cruise....

He will be headed for his last semester as an Accounting major at VA Tech...looks like he will miss the first 3 days of school....so we will need to think about taking a kid out of college....something I swore I would never do!!

We were on the 2007 WB Disney Panama and loved loved loved it!!

Hi, again, Lisa! Yeah, we're in the same boat. Erik will be a freshman in college at the time and believe it or not, I'm now finding myself looking at the college options and evaluating them according to their academic calendars! So far the local Community College and MY (not necessarily Erik's) top choice University are both off throughout the entire cruise! One of Erik's current faves is not, so he'll have to think long an hard about it all . (And this is before we've even finished applying anywhere! Geez, I think we're SICK!)

But assuming Daniel and Erik are both able to go, maybe Daniel can help ease Erik's transition into young adult activities. I'm afraid he's going to be a little lost without the teens in the club. He had SUCH a great time last time hanging out with all of them!

Thought I would check in here!

For our second Disney cruise we are doing the PC repo (again )

My dw (Beverly) and me (Wayne) will be on board!!

Even though this is our second PC crossing we are still as excited as we were last time!

Look forward to seeing all of you on board!

WONDERland

a play on that could be

WONDER->L.A.nd

how about

From the World to the Land (a play on Kingdom to Kingdom)
From coast to coast
From Sea to shining Sea
L.A.? Cha! (all said in your best turtle speak)
All it takes is faith, trust and the Panama Canal

or I was thinking it would be nice to do it as tribute somehow to Walt himself. (Can you tell I visited the Walt Disney Museum last weekend?). Haven't got anything that makes me go ooh, wow, but perhaps these ideas might inspire someone else with something better?

Going to stay with Walt.
I WONDER where it all started?

OK, that's it, nothing else pops into my head just yet.

I wish I had a brilliant idea for the theme/Title of the cruise, but I will add that I would love to see something that reflects the "permanence" or "History Making" aspect of this trip.

It's why we decided to do it over the Alaska cruises this time. In a way, we're making history with this cruise, kind of the way the 2005 WB repo made history. It's the first time ever on the West Coast for the Wonder, and it's the first time DCL will have a ship permanently stationed on the West Coast. Those are both really special.

I loved the first thread (not to take away from the "love" of this thread because I like that, too!) that mentioned "not taking her back" for those reasons.

Just thinking with my fingers....

 

[MommaluvsDis]

I had originally thought of "Finders, Keepers" but decided that doesn't really mention anything such as the PC or WDW or DL. I called pahrumpgirl and we brainstormed for quite a while.

We wanted something that mentioned that the ship was leaving one place to berth in the other. And that we were happy about it too and that's where the "With Love" came from..

We look forward to hearing of everyone's ideas. This is simply the cruise thread's title...

Des, we are up the coast from LA, about 3 hours (just south of San Luis Obispo)...in what general SoCal location are you from? I'm excited about this cruise!

We live about 15 minutes north of of Disneyland. We live in Whittier.

"From the World to the Land - the WONDER of it all"

I'll keep thinking ;-)

I cannot believe how many repeat PC cruisers there are. My wife and I really consider this a once a lifetime experience, but who knows what the future will bring. Your eagerness to go again makes me feel better about the amount we are spending on this. Hopefully it will be a great cruise.

We never intended to take the PC again.. it was our "trip of a lifetime" but we just couldn't pass this up. Our honeymoon was on Wonder right after she first sailed. We celebrated 10 years this year so we are sentimental about bringing her here to California.

We have such wonderful memories of our PC cruise that when I started as a TA a year ago, I named my company ofter our "toal" it reminds me of the wonderful friends I made on that cruise and the memories I shared with my family.

You will have a wonderful time and wonderful memories. I look forward to meeting you and your wife!

Ok, I started grazing Walt quotes.... nothing from Walt about Wonder.

But there is:
The WONDERful World of Disney
Walt's WONDERful World

And these tidbits:
Walt came to Hollywood in 1923 = 88 years ago from 2011
He was born in 1901 -- so 2011 is is 110th birthday.

We're giving it: A WONDERful Homecoming

 

[A Litle Pixie Dust]

Wow! The pics have me so excited!

I finish my degree 12/18/2011 and the PC cruise is a gift to me from me!

And as a surprise I'm taking my mom but she has no idea. It is to thank her for watching my son and everything else while I work and go to school!

I'm so excited! I always wanted to do this, and have been waiting like so many others to see the PC cruise come back!

What a wonderful gift for your mom! And early congrats to you!

I like the Wonderful homecoming...

I kept the theme on mine that was the title of the thread and so I will spill my "graphic" I am so not an artist but Im trying. It's very rough right now so I need help cleaning it up but working on it.

I have both castles with thier respective princess in front of them. I have Cinderella with a pillow (current graphic I could find) with the Wonder in miniature on the pillow presenting it to Sleeping Beauty. It is intended to look as tho she is presenting it as a gift. Hence the WDW to DL with love that I kept.


That's what I currently have. A WONDERful homecoming would work in mine... it's from one home to another (castle)

Can I borrow that?

I LOVE that idea!

Since JenKatt's husband is making a website for this cruise, I will abandon the google doc list I had set up for us. It will apparently be redundant.

Since it appears so many of you already know one another, would some returning cruiser like to take over the guidance of the FE exchange? I will step aside gracefully

Anyone?

I'm pretty sure that was PJ who set up that website for us with all the information on pre-cruise meets, pix, helpful planning info, etc. It was wonderful. Anyone up for that this time???

YEAH! Can't wait to see you again. But Lisa.....it was 2008...




Wasn't me who did that. (Techno novice here)




As I would like to see them also....along with all their HUMAN family!

.

You guys are right. Sorry about that. Having a senior moment. She did it on a Mac. If JenKatt's DH can do it that would be great.
