[wdwgoose]

Lisa I agree we will be seen for miles in those shirts I tried to talk DH into solid colored shirts - He thought these looked more festive.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!

In case you haven't seen the new thread, WebMasterMichelle just posted the western excursions. Boy, is there a lot to choose from. Good thing we have 80-something days to decide! Snorkelers/divers out there (Scott H?) -- can you give us some recommendations on which underwater stuff is best in each location?
Thanks,
OffWeGo

Hi everyone!!

GREAT Job on the shirts!!!! They look fantastic. Now will we be able to get different styles sizes or will they all be T-shirts? one size? Didnt someone mention something about being able to order through Cafe press or am I mistaken.

mjasp, Viviana and Jake would love to be able to email back and forth with your dd's before we leave. If thats okay with you of course. They would like to get to know some of the DIS kids. Let me know.

Well were all pretty sick here. Hope the flu bug hasnt gotten any of you. Have to be ready by Sat. DHs parents BIG 50th wedding anniversary!!

I'll talk to you all soon.

Guess What - I AM PAID FOR...



Now time to start saving for all those fun extras - spa, excursions....

 

[Scott H]

Just got back home and printed out the western shore excursions. Will look them over and see what I can recall from having previously been to the three ports of call.

Pretty neat to see the excursions, now for more planning.

Hi
We have come to the conclusion that it is not worth going on the "Magic" with weather here approaching the 70s. Thought for sure we would have to go just to warm up (not!) . We (I) am being committed tommorrow! Send cards and Boones Farm! 75 days for excursion packages?, Tax refund in hand, time to book another cruise? (Yes!) Ok, where are all you folks?

WDWGoose: Has a firm price been set for the Tshirts? How will we get them paid for? Any suggestions? Need to have Joanne model them for me (ha!) maybe vice versa.

Anyone chatting tonight?

Helloooooooooooooooooo

 

[Scott H]

WOW thanks for the reminder about chat.

Just a note for you all who have been to Mallory Square. Sunset on 5/12 will be at 1902 hours.

I plan on being there with a tin cup for my chalice,

 

[TnRobin]

Speaking of sunset at Key West. Did anyone notice the sunset cruise at Key West excursion? We are thinking about this one.

 

[Joe & Joanne]

Hi

TnRobin...you are in big trouble mising the chat last night, I could not finish my Chinese Food. I stayed up late every night studying for the questions...all for nought ScottH does not need to study and probably would have won bragging rights again. Host Beannie did a good job, but I am wondering about the "hickeys"?

Stingray city was great when we were there. Joanne did a snorkel above the water, while I did the dive. What a frenzy! The water is about 8-10 feet deep so snorkelers can get good glimpse of "the action".

The sunset excursion is nice but we wont be doing it again. Think we will just sit on the dock and watch the "characters"


PS: TnRobin.. you are not really in trouble are you?

 

[Scott H]

I think we can make it back to the ship after the festivities at Mallory Sq. for the late seating. That is my plan for now.

 

[TnRobin]

Actually, I now own my co-chat host a a few "Cold ones" It seems the people in charge of Matt's Cub Scout Awards Ceremony do not know how to tell time. It was suppose to start at 6:00 (plenty of time to make chat). In reality, it did not start until after 7:00.

I will try to make it up to you next week.

 

[Joe & Joanne]

Hi

Has anyone seen the Goose? Geese?

Have not heard from DCL folks about Palos Brunch, is this still on? Discrusinmommie I think was working on this one?

Wine Tasting any definitive plans as of yet?

Sail away meet location decided?

Maybe going mad here lost my counter and have to look at a calendar...

 

[Scott H]

Count down is at 73 days for us. That is leaving the Thursday before.

Definitely ready to go. It is snowing again today.

 

[Scott H]

What Shore Excursions are folks thinking about?

Big thanks to Michelle for posting those.

 

[wdwgoose]

[wdwgoose]

Hi - Joe & Joanne and everyone else too!!

I know our visits have slacked off a bit. We have been dealing with some medical issues and have also been helping at the stable where we board our horse, while the trainer was at a show. Garry has spent his free time playing with a couple of babies at the stable. (A very lively colt and fillie.)

We are trying to decide which excursions we will do there are soooo many that look interesting. I'm not sure we will try anything on our own unless there is someone out there that we could tag along with. Other than KeyWest we haven't been to any of these places, so not sure what to do.

Will try to stay in touch a little more

Vicki

 

[Scott H]

Goose or is it gooses? Good to hear from you. We hope all is well.

Lynn and I will most likely be doing the SCUBA excursions at both CGY and COZ. We have dove and visited both before and this trip is a substitute for our spring dive trip. Almost time to book those excursions.

Both of us will take a shirt. Just give us the details etc.

Joe, we decided on the Olympus C700 and will be getting a Digital Album before the cruise.

 

[Joe & Joanne]

HI

For the Geese? Hope everything works out for you guys. I would love to be playing with the horses, however I know nothing about them except the fact they have four legs (they do don't they?). You did get my PM about the shirts and setup fees and other numbers? The pop-up notifications are not working so check the PMs.

Scott good job on the cam, did you find out if it will work without the laptop? Just got my regulators and computers back, Joanne says she will not dive (too cold?) Dont know about that, maybe we can change her mind over the upcoming days. Maybe I will take her wetsuit (ugh!) cute little pink thing

Here are our tenative plans:
Chillin on Key West, probably get off ship and just walk around. Get ready for Formal night if scheduled

Cayman: Rental planned and we will take the kiddos to hell, turtle farm and do a circle island trip to include the QEII gardens?

Cozumel: The consensus here is to go to Tulum on our own (need some investigating on this), snorkeling at Xel-Ha, or Xcaret (sp), and Chaakanaab? Dont want to do an excursion off the boat, so it looks like Ferry to mainland, vehicle rental, Tulum, Xel-HA, back to ferry, cab to other places. Early bite at Carlos & Charlies, then back to ship for a night time watch of the lights on Cozumel. CC relax and decide when we will go on next trip, see reservationist once back on board and give DCL some more money

inkbounc How many days? Lost my counter in the harddrive reformat

 

[Scott H]

Joe, No probs with the digital album. We will drag our wet suits with us water should be about in the low 80's. A wetsuit always makes the day at CC better.

If you take the ferry over to Plya del Carmen, you can usually get a taxi to make the trip for you. There are also booths there that ofer trips to Talum and Chitzen Itza. A little Spanis and haggeling help.

When you buy the ferry ticket to Plya get a round trip ticket as it will save you time on the return.

I have seen horses here in WY and they do have 4 legs.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum. Please bear with me. My family of 3 will be on the innaugural cruise and are sooooo excited. This is our first cruise ever and decided to go with Disney because well, IT's DISNEY!!!! I'll be here with many questions before May rolls around I'm sure. Thanks so much for all the great info so far.
Oh yeah, sailing will be me, husband and nine year old son. I would love to hear from other families with boys in our age group.
Thanks again!!!
