Magic In Paradise: 10/8-10/15 2011 All cruisers check in here

[Octoberbride03]

I just realized that today it is 100 days before we leave for the airport! Tomorrow we will be in the double digits. I can't believe it is that close. I still have so much to do but part of me wants to pack right now and take off. We will be staying at MCO so we will be at the bus at the earliest possible time to check in and leave for port.

It skipped right by me that Dh and i are 98 days away from leaving the house We'll spend 2 days driving to the port.

We are flying in on Friday so we have 99 days until we leave for Florida. Say hi to the Magic Saturday morning. We are staying at the Hyatt MCO so we will not get over to the port until 10:45am.

Happy day! My granddaughter's passport arrived in the mail today! Now I just have to wait until the 10th for online check-in!

 

[mariaelenak]

So I read that when you hit 75 posts you move up from "Earning My Ears" to "Mouseketeer". I'm SOOOOOOOOOO close!

 

[mariaelenak]

Oh yah! Pointless post, but I wanted to move up to Mouseketeer!
Yay me!!

We leave for Orlando in 91 days. We have 9 nights at WDW before the cruise. So I cancelled my Brunch on Monday and at the advice of a friend who works for DCL I just made a reservation for 2 and a reservation for one so we can go on Thursday, that is the day we wanted anyway.

Oohhh i wish I could have 9 days at the parks before the cruise. Haven't been since my honeymoon. 1 day before I die I will get back to Cindy's Castle.

Glad you got Palo fixed like you wanted. Dh and I are still debating whether we will go this time. Right now I'm thinking not, but we still have time before we can book anyhow. if we pay by then

Alright we're in as long as my request from went through a short while ago. My WOT didn't seem to like where the form was going but before I could do anything about it i was bounced back to his home page So I will wait until tomorrow sometime to see if the form actually went through before i try again.

Kept trying to have Rich look over the site but he never did, so i just went ahead and booked it for us. Definitely sounds like our idea of a good time

And if you need a code i got 1 in my email this afternoon. just type in FOURTH at checkout for an extra $4.00 off. This does go with the usual 15% off, but not any other coupons.

I am debating on whether to use it for the pre-order or just go ahead and get 2010 edition.

Code ends 11:59 Monday night

Thats great! I wonder how many people they can take on one tour? I saw that you travel in a shuttle van.

Cool. We do not get into MCO until 7:50pm so most likely you might see us wandering around the terminal at the shops or at least hitting up the ice cream at the food court. I will also be wearing my lanyard so we'll be on the look out for you.

They must have more than 1 van to accommodate a reasonable number of people. Gotta figure on 2 ships per day minimum docking, and i'm guessing that he gets at least some of the cruisers for each ship.

From our last trip I'm figuring that Dutch St. Martin can now handle at least 4 ships, as they were building a new pier the last trip. And i wouldn't be suprised if they could have fit more than 2 on the pier we were last docked if he ships were all about the size of the Magic. we were docked with the Liberty of the Seas, and that was at the time the largest cruise ship afloat. So there was no sharing her side, I think ours might have been shareable though.

You are correct in that they finished the dock and can fit many ships in St Maarten now. We have the opposite in St Maarten than St Thomas when we visit. The Magic is the only ship currently scheduled at St Maarten and there are four when we go to St Thomas.

Oh wow. That leaves more room for DISsers on Bernard's tour then. I wonder if the schedule will change.
