halloween cruise/ Magic: October 28th-nov..4th 2006

[kchartsf]

Five suitcases packed for family of three (one just shoes). I've had them packed for two days in anticipation of FINALLY leaving early Sat morning! Our flight leaves at 6am. We will be up at 3:30am to get to the airport!!! My mother in law said, "don't worry-you won't be able to sleep anyway!!!"

Can't wait to see/meet everyone on Sat afternoon. My box of Halloween treat bags was received at the warehouse on Monday afternoon, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be waiting for me in our room Saturday afternoon!

I'm hoping that the rain will be OVER for the sail away party, but I too will be happy to be on vacation with my family, margarita in hand

Just got an email from our TA and we have been upgraded from a cat 8 to a cat 4!!! I am thrilled! Was planing on trying to upgrade at the pier but looks like someone has sprinkled a little "magic" on us this time. Off to finish packing our flight takes off tomorrow at 10:30. Going to enjoy Mickeys not so Scary Halloween much beater now now worrying about getting to the pier early to try for an upgrade. Hope you all have safe travels.....see you on the ship. Erin.

The way my pile looks we will have 4 suitcases for a family of 2.

Why are shoes not more versitle.

I have 6 suitcases packed for the family of 4. Is it a problem that my 10 year daughter ( ) packed one suitcase(it is a small one) with just shoes?

We have never cruised without 8 bags for 4 people. Kelly (DD11) took 12 pairs of shoes last cruise so I would not worry about it.

My husband just asked to find out some very critical information, so I will try and call Disney...Will he be able to watch OSU football on the boat...because last year he couldn't.

Too bad you don't live next to our other sister like I do. I walked down the street and grabbed a suitcase last night.

Congrats on the upgrade, that's great!

Heather, cool idea for the pumpkin! We didn't get around to getting pumpkins this year...it was good to not worry about it. We just finished packing, four suitcases for the four of us. Would have been three, but I just couldn't figure out how to fit it all in and still have room for souvineers on the way home!

Jhttp://www.disboards.com/misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=1&forumid=0#ust talked to Disney. Since the game is on ABC (3:30) we will have it in our stateroom (and hopefully a sport's bar somewhere).


Is it right to skip the sail away party?

 

[scubarn]

Last cruise we way overpacked!!!!
I told myself I would not bring as many clothes this time around.
So far 3 suitcases for the 4 of us. I dont want to overload the car, we are driving to the port on Saturday morning.

Leaving for airport now!!!!

 

[princessh]

Well the van is all packed and ready to go. 6 large peices and three carry ons. I also overpack. I have a big fear about leaving something at home. Oh well! We are off to the airport at 5:30 in the morn. I will probably be up all night. I still have to clean the whole house. I hate coming home to a messy house. I think I might do a load of laundry or too. See some of you at the Radisson, the rest at the port!

 

[Maryoh8]

Still not packed...almost there!!!

Have a safe flight to those leaving tomorrow.....


Get some sleep!

Hi to those of you still remaining. Sea World was fun. We spent an hour petting and playing with the dolphins. We had a blast. James got some wonderful underwater shots. We will post to our photobucket acct. later. Right now, I am exhausted and I'm going to head off to our incredibly comfy bed at the Residence Inn/Marriott at Sea World.

Travel safe! Less than 48 hours!!!

No fair everyone. We are traveling for two weeks with six people but had 14 checked in when we flew down last week. Some were big. Some were small.

We only had 4 small carry ons.

My inlaws arrived today. Four adults - 12 bags. Kim and I felt better!

EPCOT was great today. Tomorrow is R&R and stop by Sea World to say bye to the whale.
