Jan 22, 2005 Eastern Cruise MAGIC Anyone?

[Mike320]

That's what we were thinking! We are going to have an AWESOME time no matter what! After this, we'll know which works better for us for NEXT TIME!

Can't wait...can't wait...can't wait!

PS- Did I tell you that I can't wait?!

I've struggled with whether my Deck One room will be ok or is late seating right or will my kids like the Oceaneers Club/Lab!

Am I kidding myself! I need to relax, enjoy whatever I'm doing and let the fun happen!

All you 1/22 cruisers - I'll be the fat italian guy, short lanyard around my neck, cocktail in hand, with my wife and three kids - find me!

I SOOOO CAN'T WAIT!!!

Well!!
I officailly started my vacation!!! I'm officially off from work and do not report back til Feb 2nd!!! Thursday morning we have a 6:30am flight from Providence to Orlando. Going to spend a few days and maybe hit a Disney Park and definately doing Universal Studios (haven't been to their new park yet.)..
Then....Saturday.......on board the Magic!!! Somebody pinch me and let me know I'm not dreaming!!!

I still can't believe it's already here...!!!

P.S. Sorry for all the !!! (I'm just too damn excited!!!!)

 

[firsttimemom]

Wow! I can't believe how close we are!!! DH starts his vacation tomorrow as they're closing his office in DC due to the inauguration. Neither of us has packed a thing, but our kids are all set and ready to go. Heck, our dogs are even all packed for the kennel. We may end up as the couple wearing the same thing every day while our kids are fabulously dressed.

Lots of little things still to do- run to Staples for another CF card for the camera, stop the mail, get my toes done, etc.

Is anyone bringing anything special for Pirate night? I never got my act together during the after-halloween sales. If you haven't been to this pirate site, it's a hoot:

[Mike320]

Well, I started this love affair in February, 2003 and finally it's here.

We set our alarm clock tonight for 4 a.m. for a 5 a.m. pick up..Boston to Orlando non-stop and then to Epcot, followed by MK, then Studio, then ship on Saturday.

It's be great with all of you! Learned a lot, laughed a lot...heard some bizzare stuff!

See you all on board on Saturday 1/22! It's going to be a great party!

[anthonyshine]

It will be blast Mike!!!
You are not too far from me. You're in Swansea, I'm in Providence. I used to work (years ago) over at the Toys R Us in the Swansea Mall.
Have fun in the parks, see you on the ship!

Wishing each of you a safe trip. Can't wait to put faces with names. We still don't have a DISmeet scheduled, do we? For those of you who are leaving before that gets set up, if you don't get internet access on the ship so you can check back here, you can call when we get there. Several people have posted their room numbers. I'll be 8086. - Mareda

Thanks Anthony! I lived in RI my whole life till a few years ago. AND in my youth, I was personal assistant to Buddy Cianci...hmmm, maybe I shouldn't advertise that!

See you there!

 

[enduke]

Just wanted to wish all of you who are lucky enough to be leavig already a safe trip.
Can't wait to meet all of you but unless I missed something I never caught when.
I had a talk with the AAA reg. manager today. it was interesting.
he said we should have gotten an upgrade(because of their mistakes) but he was sure the cruise was all booked. Poor man little did he know I just hung up with DCL and they are not booked full and I was sure to tell him so
now lets see what he does. he is supposed to call me in the AM

Any way still have LOTS of packing and things to do
starting to get nervous about getting it all done. Iam usually packed for WDW a month ahead LOL

well we will see you all on Sat
be safe everyone

Yeah Mike...I wouldn't advertise the Buddy thing.. LOL.
Though I did vote the guy and thought he did wonders for Providence.
I still don't think we heard the last from him!!

 

[hubby_of_newtodisney]

First off, my wife posted "hip hip hooray"...I'm not THAT corny of a guy.
Second to Liz...
If we wore what we have packed so far, we would only be welcome at Orient Beach. Would a birthday suit work better for formal night, or semi-formal, or Palos???

 

[mickey minder]

Ok, time for the final plans.
Tea - Monday 3:00 Palo's
Poker - ???
Dismeet - how about Sunday at 10:30 in the Promanade lounge?

I think that DISmeet would work for us. We are planning to do Palo Brunch, but I was pushing for Monday, rather than Sunday.

Would the meet be better on Monday, or do you mean to have the tea on Monday. I thought someone had already made the reservations for the tea

 

[enduke]

WE are pretty open
so what ever should work for us.
I just want to make a spa appt. so I don't want to make it the same time.
OH I cant wait to get out of here!
we are supposed to get clobbered with snow Sunday...Glad I'll be gone
well I better get back to packing

 

[HMoon]

What PiperG ment was her and I will be doing a Palo brunch and I wanted Sunday and she wants Monday. We will probably do the brunch on Monday (happy wife, happy life). The Dis meet is fine for Sunday @ 10:30.

Pixie dust our way please. The weatherman is calling for 8 - 16 inches of snow to hit here Friday afternoon through Saturday. We are to fly out Sat at 640 AM. Hopefully the weatherman is wrong. Around here he's wrong more often than right. I guess it's good we booked Disney's Air program and took the insurance. But I really want to be on the ship!!!

Hope to see you all there.

 

[mickey minder]

Trolleygirl:
See ya Saturday.

 

[maurej]

Hi all! I was so excited to find this thread. We're leaving on Saturday at 7:05 a.m. from NY. They say a storm is heading this way Saturday evening/Sunday morning. Thank goodness it wasn't one day prior. I can't believe the trip is finally here !! There are three of us travelling - DH, our 5 year old son and me. This will be our fourth Disney cruise and I can't wait. We were waitlisted for early dinner seating and it came through Hopefully my son will stay in the clubs a little more this time. He can be a little shy at first.

See you all on board!!
