LIVE from the Magic 11/8 sailing !!

[mac_tlc]

Greetings all,

Have a few minutes before dinner tonight so I thought I'd log in . I did not see any previous post from our cruise .. so here it is ....

Cruise from PC to Key West yesterday was great. A little wave-action, but not too bad. Today is humid, a little cloudy and about 85 degrees.

Any Q's , post them, .. I'll be checking all week, as I 'm sure others will be too.

According to one of the check-in CM's, there are 2454 on board this week .. pretty good number for a Fall cruise.

Palo ressies all set for Friday.. only day left for a large party (greater than six at one table), and we were in Rockin' Bar D by 12:30PM.

Movies today : Spy Kids 3D @4pm, Finding Nemo at 6:30 and 8:30, Cold Creek Manor at 10:30

More later...

What did they have last night as far as the show? I would imagine they will be showing Brother Bear this week....when we cruise the Haunted Mansion would have just been released so I would guess we will get it.....any word on the new show The Golden Mickeys?

Verandah Man,
Just wanted to say how nice it is of you to post the pics of the ship. I can just imagine how nice it is to be online, on the ship, and know you are on it.

Thank you

Mac, say hi to Barb for me. She and I were on last year's Norwalk-cancelled cruise. I am so happy that she is finally cruising!

Keep the ship warm for us... we are right after you!

Mac...thanx for posting! Hope we left the ship in good condition for all of you! Don't miss the British Pub Night late Friday... it is hysterical!

Which seating/rotation are you on? Servers?

Do you have a DISMeet scheduled?

Have a great cruise and I hope you have mild seas!

Tom...we had Brother Bear last week (great movie and soundtrack!)...but didn't have Golden Mickeys. I had the Sales Manager on board at my dinner table, and he confirmed the December premiere of GM on the Magic. The reviews they're getting are higher than Disney Dreams but they also are taking into consideration that it's new for the Castaway Club members.

Hi Mac - we're on the 11/15 cruise, so make sure you don't drain the ship of Bahama Mammas...leave one for me! Just wondering about whether or not we'll need sweaters or long sleeve shirts while out on the decks - I've heard we'll need to bring one for restaurants, but wondering how the weather is while you're sailing and at nights. Any other tips for those of us on the verge of making the trip down!!?? Thanks, Jo

Hi Verandah Man,

How wonderful it would be to see the pictures of the Ship we are on too.

I really wish that you could do it for us as it is also our first cruise next March.

Any chance?

Let me know about a week or two before your cruise and I will do my best. As I stated above, I am at the mercy of the cams, but I will do what I can.

Have a fun and safe trip Mac....

Beautiful pictures Andy.

Hi again everyone ....

A few more minutes before tis time to get ready for the formal night...

We have the PLAPLAP rotation (there are 11 of us). Tonight is Animator's Palate !!!! Our servers are Erasco (Chile) and Neely (India). Of our 11, four are kids under 10, so they are earning their gratituity this week!!

Diversions is very nice .. looks much bigger to me than OffBeat did. Of course, football rules on the weekends and tonight so there are a lot of people. Have only walked by Cafe Cove so far, they added a lot of windows and two different entrances than Common Grounds had. One entrance is directly from the adult pool area.

Today's movies : Freaky Friday @3 , Pirates of the Caribbean @ 5:30 and 8:15.
Brother Bear is the PrimEar at Sea on Wednesday night in the Walt Disney Theatre.

Show last night was Who Wants to Be A Mousketeer , tonight is Darren Romeo...

No need for sweaters so far !!! Very hot today .. the sun finally came out after a very cloudy start. Seas are not bad.. Staff Chief Gus said that last week they were much "choppier".

More tomorrow !!! After a swim with the 'rays ......

P.S. Andy, great job !!! Nice to see the actual cruise we are on ... Can you e-mail me that pix???

 

[CRSNDSNY]

Wow. Sounds wonderful mac_tlc. Thanks for the update!

 

[mitcam]

I can feel the breeze in my hair, with the sand between my toes and frosty Pina Colada in my hand!!!!

It's like I am there. Looks like you got a great dining rotation!

We sail on Dec. 6th also doing the stingray tour with the catamaran - anxious to hear how you and kids liked it. Our sons are 7 & 5 and I am a little concerned about the water depth! Let me know! Stay safe and may the Sun greet you every morning
