I had no idea there was a 5K run. Sure - I'm in. Do I need to register or sign up?

 

[Leia's Mom]

No idea on the 5k. I've not done it before. I have just read that it is on the Navigator for the morning at Castaway Cay. I might do it if it is available. It sounds like fun.

Hi, folks! I was on the 4/25 inaugural cruise to Tortola and I just posted my DETAILED trip report with photos! I thought you might be interested:

Hope it helps with your planning or at least gets you excited about your upcoming trip!!

P.S. I'm not subscribed to this thread so if you have any comments or questions, please post in the trip report thread! Thanks!!

Hi Caitlin! Did you get my last e-mail? Do you have a Nintendo DS? If you do, what games do you have? Are you bringing it on the cruise? Do you have a Wii? I'm hoping to get one for Christmas. What is Oklahoma like? What are your favorite TV shows? What are your favorite colors? I like to swim too. Write back soon! Love, Kim

LOL. I hear you! That's the only reason I run, too. I think of my food in miles: a 240 calorie dessert is 2 miles! I look at a piece of cake (or whatever) and ask myself if it's worth an entire 2 miles of effort, lol. I usually run about 5 miles a day, so one can do the math! I love to eat - LOL!
And, on the cruise from what I've read so far, I'll be doing MANY loops on their 1/3 mile track!

Take care,
Kristin

That's funny you do the same thing as me!! I try not to eat to many sweets since I don't want to run that much. But I think we're going to do the 5K as a family on Castaway Cay. My kids love to run as well. I think you just show up at the appointment time at the pier. There's no sign up from what I understand.

I just checked our DCL and the tram ride to Paradise Point is still listed under our excursion. I would like to try to design a logo for our group but I think we need to come up with some kind of name. Anyone have any ideas?

 

[Daytonamom2]

Oh Please do a logo. That would be wonderful!!

The first thing that came to my mind is the phrase:

The "Magic" of Tortola

Just a thought...and thanks for taking this on. Great idea!

My 15 1/2 year old son who runs x-cross country and track is also interested in the 5K on Castaway Cay.

I'll be his cheerleader

 

[FairyGrandmother]

hey Mickey:

I think that a cruise logo would be great, and the Magic of Tortula sounds good to me. By the way I think that you need to put a cruise clock on my signature. Don't you?

We got our cruise documents last week ! The trip seems so close but yet it is going to take forever to get here! I have so much to do before the cruise: I have to fill out our online forms, reserve with Happy Limo, finish up plans for our DW trip that we are taking before the cruise. Besides the trip planning I have a dentist appt, a doctor's appt, my birthday on the 10th. The girls have a dentist appt, Megan has her 13th birthday and party on the 11th. They also have their spring recital dance (can't wait for that to be over!). Plus we have hair cut appts, mani and pedi's. We are making a day out of that. Dont' be surprised if you see a pink streak in my hair, I am doing it for my birthday. It will probably be faded by the cruise.

I am not doing a 5K, I hate running, but I will workout on the boat. I will probably do some running too around the 4th deck. The only reason I am working out on vacation is so that I can enjoy desserts every night !

Hi Kim
I got your email but I as such slow typer that I have not had the time to answe. I have Nintendo DS and I have a lot of games right now I can't remeber just what games I have. I will bring it with me and we can play together. We have a Wii.

Oklahoma is hot right now, but it will get cool and wet again soon. This is tornado season and we get a lot of storms. I am looking foward to swimming this summer. I am also taking a sewing class between now a the cruise. I am learning to play the drums and I now have my own drum set, it is black (the only color they had). So far I have not leaarned any songs.

Wizards of Waverly Place, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Suite Life on Deck, Suite Of Zack and Cody, and Hanna Montana are my favorite TV shows.

My favorate colors are green and black.

Grandma typed this for me or I would not have gotten it done for quite a while. See you in two weeks Caitlin

We are booked for the tram! What have I missed in regards to this?! Like I said, long time since I've been on!

3 weeks to go!!!

Today is the "Disney Cruise Prep Day" for us. DS and I need to:

1) make the FE (have all the supplies)
2) finish the gift making and purchases
3) go get new pirate outfits (he has only grown 6 inches since we bought his last one)
4) sundry purchases (i.e. travel size detergent)

Be prepared...the boys from Cincinnati have created "The 12 Days of Cruisemas" for the countdown...we'll start the reveal in about a week!

Can't wait for "The 12 Days of Cruisemas!"
I have all my FE gifts, but still do not know what I'm going to do for the FE extender. Just don't laugh when you see it, and remember that this girl is totally sewing impaired.

Does anybody have facebook, and would like to connect that way before the cruise? We can start to put faces with names that way. Just a thought.

I think the Facebook idea is great! In fact, I went on to Facebook and created a group for us: search for...

The Magic of Tortola Gang



It's an open group, so please feel free to join!!!

Your not alone on making a FE....I have yet to make one. I'm not sure how but there will be something there for FE gifts to go into.
