LIVE FROM THE 11/19 Turkeyday Magic....

[Tri-circle-D]

Here is some real trip report type stuff for ya, with pictures for us southerners.

On the day ay Castaway Cay that the Wonder did a drive by, I was returning from a snorkel boat excursion and took some good fairly close pics of her. There were lots of people we could see on the decks waving at us and taking pics. On another thread, a lady posted her pics of the Magic, and I could see our little snorkel boat in her pics. Cool, huh?
Here is her pic, showing the Magic, and see our little boat tooling towards her?


Cool huh?

Those are some cool photos, especially the one of your little snorkel boat out there by itself.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, it's beyond freezing here today!! How's the weather in your part of Texas, Willie?

Poor Andrew. Only 70-something in Florida!

Hey Pris!

We got 40's and wind. Too darn cold for me! I wish I lived down South. Farther South. Like Mexico.

You guys on the fence about booking do know that the longer you wait, the more it costs? Book and you can always cancel. You may be able to call Disney and still get the onboard credit you would have gotten for booking onboard. Tell them the lines were always too long at the booking desk, and you did not want to miss any Magic.

I WISH it was in the 40's here. (Well, actually I wish it was 70-80, and we were wearing shorts!)

Can't believe I forgot about booking early to save $$! Good idea too, about the lines being long. We DID book March 2007 for spring break (even though we still don't have the school calendar for next year) but it wouldn't hurt to book December just in case.

Dubbya- I think a 17 year old girl is running the show on your new cruise thread. Maybe if you told her you like horseys? Or, if you do some random capitalizations in your posts? Maybe your DD's can come up with something?

I might have to join you guys, or that cruise is going to be a disaster!

TCD! TCD! TCD!

What can we do to help you get the courage to approach the Mrs with this?

Molli-

If you can't handle that photo of your mom's bottom, then you do not want to know who was in the hot tub that night.

When I first found you guys on the Disboards, I always wondered about your mom's Dis name- AlreadyExcitedGrandma. What was she excited about, and why so soon? Well, after cruising with Bev and Dan, now I know. Who was that in the hot tub? Hello? Wasn't it Dan's birthday? I think Bev might have been giving him an early present?

ok ANDREW! you got me there -- darn it! maybe by process of elimation we can figure it out -- i will tell you all it was NOT me -

AlreadyexcitedGrammy was already excited about our upcoming 12/03 trip to the Poly when she registered on the DIS back in march '03. My girls call her "Grammy" (not granny, not grandma, that's grammy)

and EW! ICK! i'm not sure but i think they only did that twice -- Andy and Molli -- that's it - done - no more

here's a couple -- Twice Charmed

Dubbya- The key to the whole thing is going to be the timing.

What do you think about Christmas morning, right after I give her the monkey statue?

Maybe I could print out some of the photos of the legs contest, and the Ron Bon Jovi's and leave them lying around?

That ought to get her longing for another cruise real soon!

OK, if you say it wasn't you, then it wasn't you. I'm not telling!

Being owners of a hot tub we didn't spend time there onboard. BUT we did find Secret Deck 7 and well, i think the picture speaks for itself

Here's what you do. Call DCL and book the thing. Then, slip the reservation into Mrs TCD's stocking on Christmas morning. How in the name of Christmas spirit could she be mad about a wonderful gift, that just so happens to get you away from her family next Christmas. You will be the talk of the table this year. Envied by your brothers in law, that THEY did not think about such a wonderful gift for their little ladies. If you catch any flack about not being with the family next year, you have the ace in the hole. You simply invite your deadbeat brothers in law to join us on the cruise. How can they turn that down without looking cheap? Now,I know since you are a big city lawyer, you are filthy rich from scamming respectable Repbulican business owners of their life savings, so in the worse case scenario you can just pay for the whole "f"amn "d"amily to go.

See? Easy Peasy!

Bev, that is a Cheshire Cat grin if I ever saw one!

And it was Dan's birthday, so birthday suit time may have been late at night on deck 7!

sherri -- we'll go to pub night next Apr -- it was a hoot

Now understandably I've been speaking mostly with the males, but Molli when in the world did you pack? Or did I miss some magic and packing woulda happened had I ventured out on the last night??? I was packing ALL NIGHT the last night and never left the room.... it was quite distressing! Especially since my whole family was tired and just lying around WATCHING ME --- (read: in my way).

I do have a question for those who have had two rooms... we booked two for our next cruise and am wondering if I will get to get extra KTTW cards for each room so that DH and I both have keys to both rooms?

i learned and became mean and hard and nasty -- made my family pack with me a little thursday and then friday before dinner. actually mid-week i filled one suitcase with dirty laundry

Way to go Abel! You are on post #2! I see you sneaking in to the top 25 on this thread in no time!

BTW, I meant to congratualte you on your victory at MIckey Mania! Way to go. That Kion (the host or maybe he was a hostess?) was a bit much for me. Did you happen to catch his act at pub night?

Uh, oh! I didn't know you were reading this thread, Bev!

I think that picture does speak for itself.

Happy Birthday Dan!

I noticed you are not denying that it is you in Doogie's photo!

Pure Genius! It all seems so easy!

Plus, having my BIL's on the cruise would give me endless material for people to crack on! My DW's brother is married to a nice Southern Baptist lady. He used to be a lot of fun, but now it is no drinking, smokin' or cussin' for him! I would love to see that family on a cruise with our bunch! I'm thinkin' the little missus would die of shock! Hey, he might be interested after all!
