Hello everyone!

Right now I am sitting in the Promenade lounge watching the rocky waves roll by. I just figured out how to log on, and I have approx. 99 minutes left!!!

I will write a trip report of how things are going so far, but will post it later.

Just wanted to say "hi" to everyone and that we have GREAT DIS members on board. We had our meet and greet yesterday and took a fabulous group photo, and tomorrow we will be having a DIS only trick or treat!

I need to get ready for Formal night and grab the kids from the club...

Talk to you all soon!!!!

Jennifer
 
Thanks for taking the time to post. Looking forward to your report. :sunny:
 
Subbing to come along for the ride.......
Have a great trip. :wizard:
Happy almost Halloween. :hmghost:

How cool is this? First I check in to the transportation board and Ty Pennington is on it and now Kellie Pickler on a Magic thread! Woo hoo!
 
There was a post from a recent Wonder cruise about the changes to the Castaway Club Reception that was not favorable.

Can you PLEASE let us know what the reception is currently like on the Magic? We sail in February and I can't imagine warm sodas and mickey crispies!!! Please tell me it isn't so on the Magic!

Enjoy your vacation!!

Everybody here is having a great time! I just wanted to post a quick picture of the new KTTW cards! There are special gold ones for concierge and this is the pic of the castaway club member card

Nothing else new to report other than a rumor of a new brand of fish extender from "Solo" ;) pirate:
 
I wish I could say otherwise BUT the reception we attended 2 weeks ago had crispies and soda, coffee and o.j.

We probably will not continue to attend the meets as it seems less organized and certainly doesn't have the same "treats". My husband LOVES the coconut shrimp.

There was a point that they were going to draw for prizes and Rachel said she would have 2 CMs help pick assts (children) from the audience. There was a precious little one that got up and raised her hand, the one counselor looked straight at her and then looked away. That poor little one stood there the whole time they picked out the other helpers. ALL from tables that were surrounding hers! Maybe there is some age requirement. I would like to give the benefit of the doubt. This child was probably around 4-5. I later noticed that the 2 CMs that picked the children seemed to work with the bigger kids, probably 8+.

At any rate, maybe I was so in tuned to this because the reception was quite disappointing.
 
I hope all of you on the Magic right now are having a FABULOUS time. I was there last year and the year before that I was in WDW after getting off the Magic. It's sure going to be strange (and boring) being at home this Halloween.
 
Can't wait to hear more! We leave in less than 30 days for a post-Thanksgiving extravaganza! :cool1:
 
Will be on the Magic immediately following you. Would you please post which night is the Pirate's Party. Thanks and enjoy the rest of your cruise!!!!

I think you're on the Western, is that correct?

If so, Pirate Night is Cozumel night - Day 5 - Wednesday. We did the Western last February (but went to Costa Maya due to storm damage) and it was on Wednesday. I also looked at a navigator from a western trip in June and it was the same night as Cozumel - Wednesday.

Hello everyone!

Didn’t get a chance to post yesterday, but today was Halloween on the Magic!!! We had a great DIS trick or treat and it was wonderful to see all the great door signs, costumes and wonderful goodies. The kids got SO much candy!!!! Other kids were wondering what we were doing and how we got so much candy. Thanks everyone. I will try to attach some photos.

Well, the new bath products are here. They are ok, nothing special in my book.
We have a fantastic wait staff (Malwyn and Sameer, both from India. Fritz is the head server; he comes by twice every evening. I would highly recommend them. They brought us the chocolate soufflés from Palo!!!! Now, no point in spending $10 when we got the soufflés served at AP.

I heard there is still international day for lunch at Topsiders, but haven’t gone yet….

Everyone told me that Tea with Wendy wasn’t worth it, but had to try it. Yep, it stunk….

We brought 12 bottles of water, so far, we only drank 1 bottle. I don’t think I will go to all the trouble bringing water. The water on the ship is just fine… Maybe just a bottle to use while in port.

My dd (5) got to be on stage with Snow White at the Golden Mickeys!!!!

I’m very proud of myself, I was brave enough to take someone’s belongings and move them from a lounge chair!!! I was sitting on a lounge chair… the one next to me had a pair of shorts on it and it sat empty for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Well, my mom wanted a chair, so I took the shorts off the chair and moved them to another chair. No one came for another 20 minutes. When they did come, they said nothing… I think they knew that would happen. I was expecting them to say something so I had a whole speech ready, even showing the stamped “no saving lounge chairs for extended periods of time” on the top of the lounge chair, but nothing… oh well, I have another opportunity tomorrow!

I tried the “All Hands on Deck”. Why do people get all excited about this???
It was ok, but wasn’t worth all the hype. The cookies weren’t very good this trip either, they always seemed burnt….

They did have live music at the sail away party...I think, but I spent the whole time taking pic's of DD's dancing.

I didn't go to the CC party, it was the same time as something else; I don't remember now....

Well, I think that’s it for now… will write more tomorrow.

Night all….

A Dis-only Trick or Treat - sounds like a blast!!!! Are there many kids on board this time?

Last time we were on he was home on vacation....he was working in Palo's.....could someone try and find out for me since he is very well known to the wait staff.....Thanks!
