LAST CALL for the 10/18/03 Eastern Magic Cruise!

[Serena6010]

I found it on mousesavers.com. I just found an even better one....Costco AWD A108300

To Port Canaveral $26.09($33.11 w/ tax) intermediate car
From Port Canaveral $39.59 (44.55 w/tax)intermediate car

 

[Perchinske]

Serena, thanks! That is the same price I got by calling in straight to Avis. I found another website roomsaver.com Right now they only have summer specials for the Radisson, so I plan to keep checking the site every now and then. Rena

P.S. Do you plan to use Flounders? I found out it is $6 an hour. I thought I would book one evening and go to Palo's. It all depends on how comfortable I feel about leaving her. I have read the service is very good.

 

[Serena6010]

Rena-

Yes, I plan to use Flounders. I am a SAHM so I normally don't leave either of my kids w/ just anyone........but I think that they will be in good hands at Flounders and Oceaneers club.I'm going to try and put the baby in several evenings(if she likes it)....possible a couple hours one afternoon for Palo Brunch. My son will be 3 1/2......hopefully he will want to spend a lot of time in the club too. I'm so looking forward to myself and my hubby finally having a little break.

[Perchinske]

I too am a SAHM and leary of leaving her with just anyone. I figured I could book some time and if she doesn't like it they can just page me. Have you received any detailed information about the cruise. All I have is the AAA book I got when I booked that has general info.

 

[Serena6010]

The paging thing seems really great....and we will be so close that I don't think I will feel as nervous leaving them in Flounders or the club. Lol I least I hope not :O)

I booked w/ Costco...but I have the AAA brochure too. Do you have the Passporter book? I got mine in the mail last month..it is really good....lots of useful info for our Disney cruise. Here is a link to where I got it from. This is the lowest I could find this book for ($10.67 w/free shipping) . I'm not sure if this site is still offering the free shipping though. You can also get it at your local Barnes and Noble if you can't wait

[Perchinske]

Serena, I will check into that book. I had not heard of it. I am finalizing my airline tickets tomorrow. That will be a relief!

 

[Serena6010]

I hope this isn't the stupid thing to do but.....I waiting a little longer to see if the price on airfare go down so I can get a better deal. What airlines are you flying? I have frequent flier miles w/ America West so I'm trying to stick w/ them.

 

[Perchinske]

I have miles w/ Continental and the ticket price is $226. We will get $75(each) off of 2 of the 3 tickets. I figured I probably won't do much better than that. That is flying Cleveland to Orlando...

 

[BeanoC]

Hi everyone...

I hope everyone had a safe and fun Memorial Day weekend!

We are now LESS then 5 months from cruise time! I got my airline tickets last week, and that always makes it seem closer and more 'real'! I got tired of waiting for fares to come down, so I bit the bullet and just bought 'em.

Now if Disney would just send me my cruise docs, we could go!!
I guess I won't start looking for them quite yet.

Did the same thing myself this w'end, Beano...great minds think alike, huh

Also, decided to take advantage of the Fairytale package

We kept going back to the idea of WDW before the cruise, the one of those commercials comes on...next thing ya know...we're booked int AKL concierge for that week!

Very excited, now...

Loretta

 

[BeanoC]

Loretta.... that sounds great! AKL is one of the many places on my list where I'd like to stay eventually! We will be having dinner at Boma this year, but that's about the extent of our visit to AKL.

We have scheduled a dinner at AKL, breakfast at the Poly, lunch at CBR, and a day's worth of meals at Epcot! All this between 2 cruises... sounds like my souvenir from this vacation will be an additional 20 pounds. Just what I need!





'Beano'

 

[nicurnc]

Gosh! Are you guys gonna do the commando thing at the parks in between cruises!?

Good thing you have the 7 day to decompress...cuz it sure won't be to diet LOL

Sounds like you don't need advice from the "do Atkins onboard" thread, or the "what's your favorite low-fat meal onboard" thread, although I think that one's a little tongue-in-cheek

I'm personally in the "have a ball and diet after vacation camp"


Loretta

 

[BeanoC]

I am with you, Loretta!!

"Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you may diet".


And yes, we are doing a semi-commando attack on WDW in between cruises. When we get off of the Wonder on thursday, we are driving to OKW to check in. Then we have lunch at CBR, dinner at Boma, and the MNSSHP at MK thursday night. Friday is Epcot, and all the wonderful food and drink it has to offer! Saturday morning, it's breakfast at Kona Cafe, then off to Port Canaveral once again, to board the Magic! At least that's the plan so far...

Did I miss anything, Kamy?




'Beano'

 

[nicurnc]

Maybe we'll see you guys at MNSSHP or someplace

Mission Space hopefully will be up and running by then!

Loretta

 

[BeanoC]

According to what I've read, Mission Space is supposed to open on October 9th... we'll be there on the 17th, so let's hope there are no setbacks!



'Beano'

 

[BeanoC]

Beano pulls another month off the calendar and... it's June!!

Just a little over 4 months now, boys and girls!!

I am even more "homesick" for the Disney experience, since my friends pulled a MEAN joke on me this Sunday!

tarzanman called me on his cell phone from the monorail in WDW, just as you could here the recorded announcement saying "Welcome to Disney's Polynesian Resort"... It sure was nice to talk to him, but man, did it make me wish I was there!

I must remember to slap him in the head for that when I see him in 3 weeks.





'Beano'

 

[tarzanman]

I just called you because I didn't talk to you all week and you know that I love you.

 

[BeanoC]

Don't listen to him, everyone...

He only loves me for my body, he doesn't appreciate my mind.





'Beano'

 

[nicurnc]

Doncha hate it when that happens?

Loretta

 

[BeanoC]

Loretta - you can't blame him though...

It took me years to perfect this body, and the people at Coors and McDonalds are proud of what they've created!!
