[Corndog819]

Don't stress....the inside bars are always open on the Magic!!!!!

Im not worried about while on the ship. I want it to be sunny in port! I can guarentee they arent going to run the white knuckle excursion with thunder in the skies.

Im tired of the 20th page... time to move on!

Today, I drove by our church and was looking to see whose cars were in the parking lot. I was thinking, "Those poor saps, doing the same thing they do every day, week in and week out. And I'm about to go on a cruise!" No, wait. Make that Yeah, that's that I'm talking about.

 

[hsmom]

It's SO close!!! Don't forget, we're going on a cruise this weekend!!!

 

[Fawn]

OMG!! 24 hours from now I will be on a plane and halfway to Florida!!! I am SO ready for this vacation!

I probably won't be online after tomorrow. So did we decide for sure the port side of Deck 10 during the Cruise Away Party??

If I miss meeting anyone, please feel free to stop by and say hi. We are in cabins 7600 and 7602...our doors will be the ones with all the magnets!!

Well, better late than never I say. Would you believe I just found this board this morning and want to get to know all of you (fat chance!). Anyway, I'll be cruising this Saturday with my DH, DD, DSIL, their 4 1/2 year old triplet girls (all blondies, so you can't miss them - two are identical, one, fraternal). We'll be on deck 6 and I've made lots of door signs indicating that the Triplets are sailing! Please stop by and say "hi" or at least nod in passing in the hallway. We're all so excited. My daughter, who lives in Texas left for FLorida this morning, and I'll be leaving on Friday from Southern California and staying at the Hyatt MCO that night, going on Disney transfer bus the next morning.
We're dining at the early seating, and my DH and I have booked Palo's on the 17th which is our 4th wedding anniversary. I'm planning on indulging in a hot stone massage (which I've never had) and hanging out at the pools and the bars!
Where did you say you were all meeting? I'd love to join the group and get in on the fun. Anyone ever tried a Pomegranate Martini? They're yummy! Don't want to be too wordy now, so if you're still around and not traveling yet, please write back and let me know that you've heard from me! Thanks and see you on the Magic on Saturday!

Well Patty's group should be easy to spot! If we don't make it to the port side deck 10 sail away meeting I'm sure we'll meet in passing at the kids programs. My daughter is 4 (will be turning 5 on the ship). Victoria is pretty easy to spot with her long very dark naturally curly hair and caramel colored skin (& I'm her pastey Mama that will be desperately trying to avoid getting fried and looking like a lobster). We are totally behind and I need to get packing but we so need this break to just enjoy eachother and slow down. I can't wait to be spoiled! Looking for a spa buddy to check the place out on embark day or if they offer ladies nights? Anyone interested? My hubby runs as far as possible from these sorts of activities

I wish you all safe travels and an amazing week at sea!

Hi Patty!! Never too late...Michael is so right!!

Can you believe it..this will be the 3RD time that we will have triplet girls on one of our cruises!! That is a pretty cool coincidence!!

Rivercote...you and your daughter sound suspiciously like me and my daughter...could be we have some things in common!

I am dying here!! We had our pedis today, went out to lunch and the movies and had a wonderful day. The girls have their friends over now for games and dinner...saying their goodbyes. Tomorrow morning at 8:30 we leave for the airport!!!!

If I don't get on again tonight...which I may, I won't lie....I will see everyone at the port side of deck 10 at 5pm Saturday evening!!!! I can't believe this cruise if FINALLY here!!

If it hasn't been said before...thank you disboards!! It is soooo much fun to have people to meet and chat with before your cruise...and hopefully afterwards, a place to chat with friends you miss!!

 

[hsmom]

Is it Friday yet?

Almost! It's getting close enough now, we COULD count down hours.

Patty, welcome aboard! My son will be in with your grand triplets. (I used to nanny triplet boys...two identical and one on the opposite spectrum of the universe! I loved them!)

Can't wait to meet you guys! I'm all packed except for a couple of items I'll buy on my shopping spree tomorrow. I plan to start my vacation NOW and just bask in the pre-cruise glow!

 

[hsmom]

Just adding a little FYI. This sailing will have sign language interpreters. (DH is Deaf. ) We've heard such amazing things about the Disney interpreters, I can't wait to meet them!

Any chance any of you guys know how to sign?

This could be totally wrong but Laura posted this in here trip report thread

My aunt's funeral was today, and my sister said she bribed her kids $5 each not to say anything to Daphne about the trip! I must say, they did a great job! It was hard for ME not to say, "See you guys Friday!" as we were leaving! (I DID say it to KWBIII, but my daughter doesn't remember sign language, so she didn't catch it. )

Correct me if I am wrong.

You're right...Laura is my sister, so she was talking to my husband.

Wow! It's Thursday. We can print boarding passes for our flight tomorrow. Guess I should pack, huh?

HSMom -- one of the members of our cruising group works at Gallaudet in Washington DC as a deaf interpreter trainer!! Her parents were both deaf and she grew up signing. Last year I helped her with final exams by coming in to do a 15 minute presentation that was interpreted by a student. Will you be on deck 10 during sailaway?

Yes! That's awesome to know. We'll certainly look for you guys. My dh is easy to spot. Tall, handsome deaf guy. We will be with our group of ten.
