Hi gang..

We'll be joining you! We just got off of the Magic this morning after 14 wonderful days from Fl to CA. It was a great cruise! Will be my DW, Tracy, DD Taylor who will be 6 and a half and me Jim.

We were fortunate enough to have one of the Cat 3 rooms for the Panama cruise and it was wonderful. I booked for next year while on board last week and asked for the same room anytime in June or July of next year. But all of the cat3's were gone. Then Danielle said that for the July 8th sailing she had the Walt suite available. I said done. DW almost jumped overboard. She thinks I have lost my mind. So all of you have an invitation to join us for a few little get togethers in that great cabin.

Next year will be our 4th Magic cruise and although we just got home about 6 hours ago..we are already looking forward to next year. I'm looking forward to talking to all of you over the next year and seeing you on board!

Jim

We just got off an RCCL cruise and had an inside cabin so I think we will be okay with what we have but good for you!

Woohoo! I've always wanted to see the inside of that room, especially since I'm sure it will always be out of our price range!

I kept up with the repo-thread and it looks like everyone had a WONDERful MAGICal time on board! Do you have any photos posted anywhere? I'd love to see them.

Welcome to the thread, and look forward to meeting you (and everyone) next year!

No pictures posted yet. Just started unpacking this morning but I will get some pictures up somewhere as soon as I can.

We were lucky enough to meet Chuck and Janis in the Walt suite during the cruise and spent some time with them in the cabin. The last two years I always wanted to see that room! Rest assured that because we were lucky enough to get it, we are more than willing to share it for some fun times. I'm told that many times that door is closed the entire cruise! Won't happen on the July 8th cruise....

You are very gracious! I would love just to see it! Thanks!

Also want to send this out --- only 400 more days until we leave!!!

 

[MBFergie]

Can I whine...

Ah man..400 days (kick foot, throw something) that is too long... life's not fair! Why can't I go sooner...stupid CA cruise. Gosh...

Okay, I feel better. Not really, but I checked my ID and the birthdate is well beyond that stage so reality check...400 days, I can do this, its about 57 weeks, so figure with weekends and vacations and days I just can't drag myself to work that's 250 days of work at 6 hours a day, ahh never mind.

Have a great Monday, I think 56 more Mondays till we celebrate a Monday at sea!! Maybe we should plan a Dis Brunch on the Monday!

I would love to go on a wonder trip..we just don't like pulling kids from school. Especially since DD starts high school this year. I just wanted to whine anyway.

So then go for a 3 day cruise without them.

 

[ljql_5969]

MBFergie, take heart. We are now under the 400 day mark!

 

[MBFergie]

I hate the new counters...13 months...blah!

I want the old ones that gave it to you down to the last seconds!!

Well we have booked our trip to Boston for July 4th week and a trip to WDW in September so ya'll shouldn't have to hear me whine anymore for awhile.

 

[MBFergie]

HAPPY DAY AFTER FATHER'S DAY!!
Well, we are now down to only 53 more Mondays to go! Hope all is well with everybody. Here in Sth Florida the weather is dreary..rain, rain and more rain. Better then the hurricanes we saw last year!

Stuart where did you get your timer?

 

[ljql_5969]

Hey, are you all getting ready to start making ressies at hotels for the day before the cruise? I called a couple of hotels about 4 months ago to inquire and they said I could make ressies at a year out. I also need to reserve our cars at Budget! Yeah, that is a good sign we are getting closer, right!

Already done. Staying at the WDW Swan Jul 7th - 1 night. The rest of our gang will be at the BWI.

MBFergie,

I got our Indiana 15-year old sailor set up with a login ID but he is a little shy. He may or may not post. His login id is INJOHNDEERE. I hope he does as I think it would be good for him to meet some people before the trip rather than be overwhelmed once he is there!

How old is your DD? You may have said already.

 

[ljql_5969]

Hey July 8th cruisers!!! I just got done sending my family members their monthly DCL update and thought I would post here too.

We are down to 372 days until we leave! I cannot believe it has been 5 months since I booked already! Only 12 more months to go!!!

I cannot wait!



Talk at you all soon!

I called a couple places in Cocoa Beach and they have told me the earliest they can make reservations are a year out. So I am anxiously counting down the days!

I am ready to get my hotel, flight, and rental car ressies done for my family so I can then sit back and relax.
