Hey all! I am glad to see you are all still here We were having pretty nice weather here (around mid 80's) until some high 60's the past two days.

Cheryl-You need to delete the http:// that is in front of the first

We actually had a high of 90 on Wednesday, before a cold front moved in. Of course I am not going to complain, it should be in the mid 70's all weekend.

The boys are going on a scout camping trip, and tomorrow is my daughters bridal shower. I still say I am not old enough to have a child getting married. LOL

We even offered to bring them on our cruise, but it looks like DD's hubby to be won't be back in time to go. (he is Air Force too)

Beth, enjoy the shower...you don't seem old enough to have a child getting married....
The computer makes everyone seem soooooo much younger!!!

Tried the new sig., let's see if it works.

Che,
I just looked at my signature, if you take off the http:// it should work.

Our kids range in age from 23, down to 9....specifically 23, 22(DD) 17 and 9 almost 10. There are 7 years between each boy( there are 3 of them...lol)
But only the youngest 2 are cruising with us.

I took it off and it is not working....I just guess I can't do it.

I will just look at yours.

Has anyone started making their pre & post cruise plans yet?

We are planning on flying in on Friday (we never know what our weather here will bring in the winter), renting a car from Budget & staying a at a hotel near the port. When we get off the boat we plan to get a new rental car from Budget, drive down to SeaWorld for the day, stay near there and fly home on Sunday (depending on flights we may even go back to Seaworld in the morning if they are still having the 2nd day free special and we feel like it).

We haven't decided where to stay yet. When do you guys start making those reservations - will the prices go up or down as we get closer? Should we start making reservations now? Where do you stay?

We will more than likely fly out on Sat. morning on Southwest. If during the week, the weather looks bad for the weekend, we will reconsider changing it. I want to keep time out of school to a minimum. Also, there are alot of us going so it would help if we were all on the same flight out.

I would love to book some on-board things, but we have to wait for that.

As for shore excursions, Other than St. Martin, we think we are beaching it!!!!

Hi!

Can I join your thread? We are booked on the Magic for 19th Jan 08 after switching from the wonder on the 13th Jan 08

This is our first cruise and we are so excited!

There will be - me (Samantha) DH Steve, and DD's Beth (11) and Kate (9)

We are travelling from our home in the Falkland Islands on Jan 5th and doing the Disney parks etc before our cruise.

We are also ex - Royal Air force, DH left 6 months ago but still works for the military as a civilian, so we moved from the UK all the way down to the South Atlantic, its COLD down here in the Antarctic circle - hope we get some great weather during our trip!

Nice to meet you all - I hope my DD's will get to make a few friends by e-mail before we sail!

We're planning to arrive on Friday and stay at the Embassy Suites by the airport, get breakfast there in the morning and headout for the ship. We normally use a FL Tours towncar for the ride over to the ship, making a store stop on the way, getting there at 10:00-10:30.

Welcome Gixer! I have a DD11 who will be 12 when we sail! I know she will be excited to know that there is another girl her age on the boards. We will have to set up for them to "meet". We live in SC and I cannot even imagine the cold where you are!

Great!

my DD was worried there would be no kids her age on board She will be a couple of months short of 12 when we sail, how exciting that your DD has her birthday on the ship! Do you have anything special planned to celebrate?

 

[chepic]

Welcome aboard Gixer....we have some girls in that same age group that will be thrilled to have others to hang with!!

Can you believe that it is April and we are that much closer!!!

I booked this cruise in December....so forgive me as I count it down.

Have a great day everyone.
