[disneyholic family]

well that's it!!...

i just made our final payment....60 days from today we'll be on the Disney Wonder as she sets sail on the fourth of july.....

wow......where did the time go??...
i booked this more than half a year ago.....and now it's almost here...

i think i'm getting excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(but first i have to get into that little metal tube and fly way up high in the air for hours and hours and hours....then change planes and fly some more......yikes)...

 

[Wish Upon A Star]

Have a WONDERFUL trip!! You'll have to let me know how it is . . .I've always wanted to try the cruise . . .

We are also leaving for our trip to WDW on July 4th . . .59 days and counting!!

Don't worry about your flight . . .make that the furthest thing from your mind! I'm the biggest baby about flying, but I do it . . .

Have an AWESOME time!

i see that you'll be at the grand floridian...
that's where we'll be before we set sail...
have a fun time!!!!

Wooohoooo!!!!!!! Isnt it a great feeling? I cant believe how fast its gone either. We booked it 2/13/01!
All I did was read your title and I said all excitedly "They must be on our cruise!!!". Then I checked the name of who posted it and realized yep, you are!
Did you prebook any excursions? We called this morning and booked parasailing on Castaway Cay. I cannot wait to do that.
How long are you going to WDW for beforehand? We are spending one day/night at the Poly.
I never realized how much more exciting this is when someone else is as excited about it too. Im sure we will "talk" much over the next 59 days!

July 4th cruise now that sounds like fun! You will have a great time on the Disney cruise. I hated flying too now I will never driver again cause I like getting there faster so much better.

May I ask were you are flying from? I fly from Albany NY so I'm in Florida in 3 hours. I just went to visit my daughter in Okinawa and a two day visit to Tokyo Disney Sea while I was so close I couldn't pass up the chance. The flight was 14 hours to main land a one hour bus shuttle to another airport and another 2 1/2 hour flight to the Island. It was a long day.

Have fun
Judy

CamColt...
yup....it IS exciting....
making that final payment was so......final..... ...
not that we're still not worried about being seasick etc....
that's why i opted for the 3 day...just in case.....

as for shore excursions.....i only booked us for the snorkel/bike/float thing on castaway cay.....

i still have to make arrangements for atlantis in nassau...
my son want's to use their waterpark so i'll have to rent a dayroom i think.....now that i've taken the plunge and made the final payment, i can call atlantis and check it out....
other than atlantis i don't have much interest in seeing nassau....

i STILL can't believe i made that payment...
i called yesterday to make it...that is, on sunday....and they were there answering the phone.........very fast and easy.....

were you thinking of signing up for any of the spa stuff?...
i thought i wouldn't, but now i'm thinking that maybe i will.....

AUTUMNSAM...
i'm sorry, i never say where we live....but it is on the other side of the atlantic.....not in japan.....though i've been there many times....(without a doubt THE most expensive place on the face of the earth....bar none....but nevertheless one of the most beautiful and interesting places to visit....)....
so how was tokyo disney sea????......i've only been to tokyo disneyland, the last time i was in japan, disney sea wasn't even an idea in the fertile minds of the imagineers.....

Im with you on Nassau. It seemed kind of dumpy to me the first time we went. The second time we stayed on the boat. I would like to stay on board again this time, but it looks like we will need to get off to find a pay phone to call the kids at home. We will probably just do that and then get back on, unless I can find a easier way to call that doesnt cost as much as the cruise itself.

DH & I did the Surial Bath in the spa the last time. It was really fun. Its not really top priority for me to do it again since weve done it and there is so much more to do(in 3 short days!!!), but if it works out, then we might. Im more concerned with getting ressies for Palos than the Spa this time though.

 

[disneyholic family]

how old are your kids?....

we're not planning on palos, so that's one fewer couple you have to compete with...
i'm also not interested in the surial bath....
i was thinking of one of the massages...maybe reflexology.....
or perhaps a full body massage.....i'm not sure....
i've never done either one of those.....so maybe....

but mainly i'm looking forward to all those group type activities.....family contests and games.....i love doing stuff like that....though not kareoke.....uh uh....nope....i leave that to the rest of the family...

so if this isn't your first cruise, that must mean you like it....
i really hope we do too....mainly i'm afraid of being seasick...

i'm such a genious....i didn't realize you're a woman.....funny....
but that DH thing gave it away....since it's fourth of july maybe my DH will lighten up on work, but i doubt it.....he's a 24/7/365 kind of workaholic.....it will be interesting to see whether the cruise succeeds in breaking that pattern...
but mainly we're doing this cruise after intense campaigning on the part of the kids....last summer they saw so many ads for DCL when we were in WDW they just wouldn't stop talking about it...so as you see, advertising works.....
