Geeks on a boat! Disney Wonder Sept 3-7, adventures in alcohol....

[lbrening]

Was the Martini Tasting the same as the Martini Flight as far as 5 Martini's??
We will be going on the Magic again for Christmas and wanted to order that,are they the same size as reg. Martini's???? My inquiring mind would like to know! Glad to here you had a great time...

There were four martini's : a gin martini, apple martini, cosmo, and a choclatini. Then they added olive juice to the gin to make a "dirty martini" which made the fifth martini. They were not regular size either. I think the martini flight would be better.

Erica,
Got my ginger chews for the :ahem: planned adult beverage consumption planned on this cruise...........thanks to your tip. Now I gotta get a hangover to try them out before the cruise to make sure they work.

Woo hoo my countdown is getting closer......

I would have though they would have been the same on both boats but apparently not! Huh.....well, the tasting sounded fun anyhow. We never made it there. And $300 on booze? I'm so proud of you!

Sorry there was no free stuff at the spa, maybe they were doing a promotion or something when we went?

I'm glad you enjoyed the report and that you had a great time. I've been going through withdrawl for about oh.....7 weeks or something

Erica,
Seriously - I think you may be my long lost friend....

Did you know that the 10-29 cruise is a "Pin Cruise"? Yep, that is right, a whole cruise centered around pintraders and pin collectors - and I am going to be on it. That would be the ultimate Geeks on a Cruise report for you!

Thanks for your wonderful report!

Well I found this a little late but still, I'm glad I found it!

Your TR was fantabulous and between you and Oybolshoi raving about the moccachinos, even though I dislike coffee, I might have to try one! Same with the Rasul. Has any TR couple gone in and NOT had S-E-X?? Not that you do that, its Disney, I'm just sayin'.

I wouldn't saddle her with a Bombeck comparison.

She is a much better writer than that hack.


That is just rude.

 

[Frankiesmom]

Oh Erica-where to begin? That was the most amazing TR I have read! I wish you and your DH nothing but the best and I truly believe the two of you will be awesome parents when the time comes! I sent you a pm 1/2 way thru-I read it all today! Wonderful for a child to have such life loving parents as the two of you! God bless! Angel

Knowing FatherForce, I'm almost certain that was sarcasm of jest. Remember my first post! No stirring allowed here.

Keggy and Jennifer48, thanks so much! And Frankiesmom, I got your PM. Thank you for the very kind words.

All I can say is im ready to get aboard and fly away on the martini express. It's 12 days and counting and we are all very excited to finally go on the Disney Cruise.

Thank you for a WONDERful diversion from laundry and house cleaning and, oh yes, packing for my trip. (I leave at the butt crack of dawn Thursday for a week at WDW F&W.)

I wonder what DCL would do if they ever hada cruise with no kids - ok just kids of legal age. I truly think an adults only trip would be a blast on that ship.

Keep writing - you have a talent for it.

 

[sfeisen]

No stirring intended.............. ....really

Just sensitive to Ms. Bombeck

Your TR is absolutely fantastic.

Between you and Sleepydog, you have been giving me evil thoughts of taking a cruise withOUT our four darling children.....seriously.

I'm looking forward to reading more of your adventures whether on a Disney adventure, or your adventures in pregnancy. or adventures in parenting.

Good luck to you.

You are going to have the best time ever! It truly was the best vacation me and DH have ever taken.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm me thinks I will be able to test the validity of whether the ginger chews work in the morning.

thanks jd for a great night (I am from Tennessee after all)!!!!!!!

After an unspecified amount of time had passed, Lionel glanced over at me and asked if I was ready to head back to the boat. “Not on your life, mister” I replied and closed my eyes again. And then, there was a giant clap of thunder from out of nowhere. I looked back at my husband. “Yeah, now is good.”

All of the adults were scattering to the shore like cockroaches when the light in the kitchen gets turned on. Floats were being strewn left and right. Flip flops were being left behind. “Just go, man! Forget about the flip-flop, go!”

zweihund!

I am just now reading your trip report and I love it! I still have some more reading to go, I hope. But I must tell you that I almost fell out of my chair reading this piece. I can just imagine all of you running out of the water and leaving everything behind!

Thanks so much!!!!
