JUNE 19, 2005 "wonder" who's with me?

[weluv M&M]

NO DOCS HERE...but I am still doing a little dance just due to the fact that we are 30 days out!!!! We did sail last June and we were very pleased with the weather and the calm seas. Iron? what is that? I don't iron at home much less on my vacation!!!If it needs to be ironed I don't take it on the cruise. That is my thought on that

As far as the REPO cruise...you would not find me sleeping on the floor for ANY pin!!!!! "to each his own" I guess the saying goes.


Don't erveryone spend all their time packing...send a message on this thread...I would love to know what everyone is doing on the cruise or ports and waht you are looking forward to the MOST

 

[Jcrlynn]

Ok M & M no iron or steamer just for you I'll leave it home I also have a DD who will be 6 in Sept. maybe they can meet up on deck 10 and hang out together we did not use the kids club much last time but the kids are going to spend some time there, we have booked a couples mass on Nassua day we are not geting off the ship, nothing to see really. and I think we did not get a chance to enjoy the ship as much last year that is the one think that we doing differently. I also booked a DETOX for day at sea and a Pedacure. A birhtday think for me. My kids can't wait for the Pariate Party I ordered glow sticks and Tatoos and pariate stuff from OT. I have 100 glow stick we would love to share with you guys!! I remember leaveing the show about 10 min early to get a table near the Goofy Pool for the show last year It works out GREAT We had the table ALL night and then they put out MORE FOOD I am going to eat VERY LIGHT at dinner that night I had to buy another suitcase maybe DH won't notice My girls and I have a shoe problem We love them!!! all kinds!! I tell DH I am PAcking for 6 here. I also thought that since they finally changed that drink thing which I thought was silly EXTRA charge for COKE now it is at the drink Station with nonsweeten Iced tea I will bring a drink holder from BB so I don't have to keep going back for those little cups and it will stay cold. We had great waiters last year we don't drink so they sent a case of Pelagrino water to our cabin on the first night it lasted to hole cruise. OK I have said enough back on the treadmill Talk to everyone soon!! Lynn

 

[weluv M&M]

Good morning everyone and Thanks for the reply JCRLYNN. I think that my daughter would love to make a new friend. Especially since her big brother is 'moving up' to the kid's lab. We will look for you guys on deck 10 soon after the safety drill.

We are doing some things that we did not do last cruise also....we have booked a couples message on Castaway Cay. We did the couples message last time on board...very relaxing. We also are staying on board the Nassau day and looking forward to enjoying the ship more. We did the Dolphins last year and it was great. But I don't think there is much else that I care to see in Nassau.

This will be our first Pirate Night and I am so excited!!!!I woild love to know where you found the tatoos...and would love to share glow sticks...Thank You. It is a great idea to secure a table...I think we will try this also.

Like everyone else on these boards, I am almost obsessive about planning this trip...there is that question still out there about out dining rotation.??? I tried to make a ding request ( I would like ATPP) but was told that the night that they do the Pirate Night is subject to change. What was you experience?

Gotta go shopping...Iam sure that there is something else out there that I still NEED for the cruise

 

[prifoka]

We are not doing the doc dance yet. But, I think that the only thing we are not doing. We are so excited. A trip with all girls will be fun. My DD(17) and her friend (just turning 18 by a few days before we leave) Hope we can all meet on Deck 10.

 

[Jcrlynn]

Hi everyone! M & M We ordered pariate stuff from OT Oriential Trade Co. Still not here yet just the glow sticks arrived! We are wearing red tee shirts on sail away. I tried to get the others into this but my friend told me that red was not really her color I was hoping that we could all get a pix when we boarded. But she has since told me that the boardwalk told her they would be in the terminal by 1:00 NG I will be in the terminal by 10:30 tried to talk her into getting her own transport to the ship but she thinks disney knows more than the DIS enough said about her I love her but she drives me . So just 10 of us will be driving in early. I have not asked about dinning I don't want to change my time we are ALL dinning @6 things just fall into place when you dine at 6 maybe it is just me but with 3 kids under 12 that is the way things go. I hope they don't ask us to change I know they are trying to stagger the time (somthing new) are they going to stagger the show too!! for me leave well enough alone. I have not done Palo dinner I like everyone to meet for dinner silly me I did book brunch, on day at sea. The kids enjoyed eating lunch with the kids club last time the one time they went to the club. I don;t mind missing a chicken nugget feast Yes we are obsessive about every trip to Disney I thought for years It was just me glad to know I am not the only crazy person the Dis boards have brought my OC DIS order to light No doc today either anyone dancing??? Off to target I read on the Dis that they had travel washing mash soap YES M & M I am going to throw in a load of laundry we are going back to orlando for a couple of days don't have to be home until Sunday. Talk to you all later!! Lynn

 

[weluv M&M]

No Docs yet...so I guess I will just get my daily Disney "fix" here on the boards I still am wondering about the staggered dining times. I guess it won't make a huge difference either way...I just like to know everything I can as soon as possible. Since we will be dining early it will be 5:45, 6:00 or 6:15 from what I understand???? We also are doing a Land/Sea so we don't know our dining rotation until we get to our stateroom We get our KTTW cards at the Polynesian check in but the dining rotation onfo is not on that card. OH the waiting is killing me

We are going to Animal Kingdom the morning of embarkation day...so we won't board until about 1:30. I know you can't believe this JCRLYNN Our plan is to get to meet everyone on deck 10 port side around 4:30.

 

[Jcrlynn]

I know you are catching the Magic go through the canal! what a sight!! Prifoka I gave my DS the mess she should hear from him over the weekend. I used a TA this year she gave me a good rate because there were 20 in 7 cabins. She said no doc until 2 wks before last year I got them 1 month before. I gave up control of this! SCARY M & M you strike me as a MOM who is TOTALY in the know I would be freaking out if I was in the park before sail away. I would be afraid that they would forget to pick me up or leave my luggage at the Poly. But I would want to take every minute I could having fun. I will be thinkng of you around 12 noon .I know what ever it takes you will be on deck 10 @4:30 will the rest of us even if you need to hIjack a tram. The best part of this is your res for everythink on board is done not like the old days So just grab your navagaitor and go to lunch. we will probly go to topsiders we love to eat out side or where we can find a seat. I made res for the Wispering Canyon in the WL has anyone ever been they took away our fav THE GARDEN GRILL in epcot my family loved it there. we are not big earters but the quality was good. so trying a new place. We get in on Wed MK has EMHours has anyone done this? we will rest up and go in later. Ok try to hold yourselves together until DOC arrive talk to you all soon

We are driving down and arrive at WDW on June 11. Plan to get to the ship around 10:30Am on June 19. Have made reservations for Palo Brunch also. My 2 sons are excited and our friends that are cruising are also excited. My sons are 8 & 5, and our friends have 2 daughters also 8 & 5. We are getting off at Nassau for a few hours to take our friends to Atlantis. We are taking taxis and then planning on coming back to ship by noon and spend rest of day on board. We have early dining. No docs yet.

 

[weluv M&M]

jtjcwise...I hope that you will join us on deck 10 port side during the sail away party!! It looks as if we have similar age kids. You gotta know they would love to allready have a friend to look for in the kid's club What are your plans for the Pirate night? Do you all plan to dress up or have any type of pirate gear?

jcrlynn....you bet your "sweet navigator" that me and my family will be on board on time!!! I guess that is the one good thing about using Disney transportation...they won't let the boat leave until our buss is there...or so they tell me Gotta go to DD dance recital as with any family everthing is coming to an end at this time of year. I will be glad when all these activities are done for the summer and all I have to do is pack and read the DIS boards

Have a good weekend everyone

 

[Jcrlynn]

HI everyone Jtjcwise what time is your res for brunch we are in there for 10:30 I hope we can skip breakfast then be really hungry when we get there. those kids are such high maintaince they must eat every meal I guess We can sit and watch we have 2 large tables I can have a cup of tea talk while they eat AGAIN I also have a DD 5 they girls will be happy to have a face they kind of know in the club. We have enough glow stick for everyone I think there are 100 in that box I tried to hide everything or it would be all over the house the tattoos are back order we went to every party store no luck maybe they will still make it.I heard they give out bandanas at dinner that night.

[jtjcwise]

Will try to make it to Deck 10 for the sailaway party. We are going to bring small bottles of bubbles for the kids for the sail away party. Have not decided about pirate night dress. Have been out of town so much with work and have not had time to think about it. Went to soccer today and then came home to pack leaving in the morning at 7Am for another trip. Will be back in a few days and then will have time to plan details.

Our Palo reservation is for 11:00Am. My wife and I are celebrating our 18th anniversary while on board and we booked Palo for something special. Had to practically beg her to give it a try.

[jtjcwise]

Hi everyone. My family is finaaly getting as excited about the cruise as I am. We received our docs on Tuesday. They were inside our door and my wife had not found them. I had just flown back in from Indiana and there they were. The 2 other groups going with us also received their documents.

When I registered the children for the kid's clubs over the internet, it had a medical form that it said to fill out. It appears that a doctor is supposed to fill it out. None of the children have any medical conditions. Do we need to have this filled out?

 

[Jcrlynn]

DOCs how WONDERful!!! Med form what med form ? I also reg 3 kids on line and never got a med form request I don;t even remember one from last year and my ped needs 1 week and charges 5.00 per form for school or anything else I never saw this no one in our group said a thing. I bet if you call DCL they will tell you they don't know a thing. let us know what you do and how you make out. I am going to call the TA again and bug her until she hands over the DOCs talk later guys!!
lynn

 

[weluv M&M]

OK you "DOC DOGS" you are making me GREEN with envy. I want/need docs. After all that DOES make it official, right? How did your docs come, US mail, UPS or what? Did you guys use a TA or DCL? From what i understand they go to the TA first then to you

As far as the med form....I am at a loss please let us know what you find out, PLEASE.

I did go to Target today and visited the "isle of samples" this is a cruiser's dream come true. All these small things that you can use while you are there and then trash and not have to bring home I love that! i saw the mini Tide bottles and thought of you JCRLYNN If I need to find you on the cruise I will know where to look....in the laundry room

Keep me "posted" Oh I crack myself up
