June 22 Magic (Western)

[Laurajean1014]

Add us to your June 22nd cruisers...........

Our second time on Magic and awaiting a great time on the western islands. Our 6 year old son is going to love swimming with Dolphins and snorkling. We are also thinking about the submarine (Atlantis) in Grand Caymen (while Mommy shops).

Does any one know if Cozumel or Grand Cayman is better for shopping?

We're staying at Vero Beach for a few nights prior to boarding on Magic! We did it last year and it was fabulous!

If anyone wants to email me, I'm at: jferris102@aol.com

Anyone that is going on the June 22 cruise with us, please email me your email address. I have most of you, Don't have Hokiecruiser5's email address. Please send it to me so we can communicate on the DIS meet. I have JoanneL, Laurajean1014, Howard and Cam and Corl14 and BethA's and TENNDVC's emails. Let's try to keep in touch better by email. Talk to you all soon.

My DW (Cam) and I have been to Grand Cayman and Cozumel. I think Cozumel, by far, has better shopping and more choices. You should plan on shopping there. There is also some shops near where the ship will tender into shore in Grand Cayman, but not as many selections as in Cozumel.

Glad to see more of us on this post!

I just made a res for the Radisson. I can't wait. See every one there.

 

[TENNDVC]

We need to decide on a time to meet at Radisson Friday night.
Do you think by pool would be good? Looking forward to meeting other DIS folk.

 

[KeenHo]

We (Cam & I) will be there! We'll have to decide on a good time, we'll be running around Florida a bit starting at 8:35 am, but should be heading towards the Radisson towards early evening. This is going to be great!

O.K., I am really getting excited now that people are talking on this June 22nd thread......Our whole crew will be getting into FL around 11:30 a.m. and hopefully to the Radisson by 1:00 p.m. Once we get checked in, we will be hanging by the pool all day with our collapsable coolers! (Full of course) Maybe we will pick up something to eat at the restaurant next door or maybe just hang out there and order from the outside bar. The teens like doing that and just soaking up that sunshine Keep in touch, it is nice to see more people emailing each other, we will all know each other before you know it!!!

 

[BethA]

We'll be getting to the Radisson early afternoon also--I can't wait! Last year we arrived late and didn't get to enjoy the pool. Beth

 

[JOANNEL]

We will be ariving mid afternoon also. I't about a 7 1/2 hour drive.
Can't wait.

Someone from the June 22nd cruise, make sure you post when you get your Excursion Info. in the mail. We are due to get that mailed to us this week. Any more June 22 cruisers out ther???

 

[KeenHo]

We are paying off the balance on our cruise next week. I can't wait to get the documents, etc. it will make it all the more real for us!!

We just paid for our 6/22 cruise. I am getting very excited. We are leaving (driving) from Cincy on Friday about noon. We plan getting into Fl that night. Then a stop at the Disney Outlet in St. Augustine, then onto Port Canaveral.

We are: myself, DH, DD(7), mother inlaw, father inlaw, brother inlaw(21) and his girlfriend.

We are thinking about either the dolphin swim or stingray swim.

 

[rcdisneyfam]

KimDisFan, send me your email. Clic on my email on the boards and send me your email address. Glad you are joining us. We have all teenagers going and 6 adults and one 11 yr. old. We will all have to do a Dis meet.

 

[TENNDVC]

We will be at Radisson early afternoon but plan on going to an Italian restaurant we found near Ron Jon's for dinner I think.
Depends on what the teenagers want to do. They may want to stay by the pool too. Looking forward to meeting everyone. Has anyone stayed in one of the new suites? They look really nice on the web site.

 

[rcdisneyfam]

We stayed in a regular room last year, we are staying in a suite this year. I know Caroline and Mike stayed in the suites last year and they said they were real nice, they talked us into a suite this year. We will have a great time at the Radisson.

 

[KeenHo]

We stayed in one of them last May. It was like new, Florida colors (peach, etc.) just like on the web site. One room has kitchenette, round glass-topped table, fold out couch, tv unit and chairs. The bedroom has queen or king bed, entertainment unit, corner jacuzzi (step up and in type), bathroom and separate glass enclosed tile shower. All were in great condition last year.

I have photos here that I can scan and e-mail if anyone wants a sneak peak at the suites. Let me know! Send me an e-mail request, I'd be glad to.

It is true here even more than other places: out of sight out of mind.

KimdisFan, the St. Augustine Outlets are the best. We went down there in February from the suggestion of Caroline & Mike after we stayed in GA with them. The outlets were so good after we shopped on the way to Disney, we couldn't just drive by on the way back, had to stop again. Great Character Outlet and Fossil Watch, Nike, Reebok, lots of other great stores. Happy shopping, get lots of Disney clothes for the cruise. Anyway, we are at 70 days to go I think or around there. We are meeting with the other 2 families going with on 4/20 for our Caribbean Party Night, this will be our 3rd party celebrating before the cruise and we are going to decide that night on the excursions so we can call that week to make the excursions reservations. Keep this thread going.......Adios Mis Amigos!! Getting in the Mexican lingo (thanks to my daughter's Spanish) More to come......

 

[TENNDVC]

Documents for shore excursions arrived today. Now to get everyone to agree on what we want to do. Has anyone else received their packet? 70 days and counting
