Just in case this thread is still in anyone's subscription list -
We're booking the eastbound repo cruise 8/17/08

Wanna come????

 

[amesmom]

Sounds good! I'm sitting in cold Iowa (not as cold as Alaska) and wishing I had a Disney cruise to look forward to. Can you book the repo cruise yet?

Our kids would have to miss the beginning of school, so I think that's out for us. But DH really, really wants to do the repo cruise in May 2008. He loves the idea of going thru the Panama Canal. Kids would again have to miss school, but I might be willing to do it then.

 

[sk8ingmom]

We're going on the Aug repo because I figured the kids will miss less school. We get off the ship the day before Labor Day.

If we were still going to be in AK we'd go on the May repo. The kids get out of school mid-May here. But I have no idea where we will be living 6 months from now, let alone the school schedule, so I'm gonna pay my money & take my chances!

How've you been?

Wish we could join you, but I don't think my principal would go for that!

I lost one of my photo cards from our cruise. I am printing out the pics to make a scrapbook and I guess I lost it on the cruise. It had the entire first half of the cruise! That really stinks! I have no pics from the sailaway party or any of that stuff. Oh well, we are going back again this year, so I will have to just replace them for the next scrapbook!

Hope you are all doing well.

I'mWong - let me know if you want any cruise scenery photos - sailaway, pulling into ports, etc. I'd be happy to make copies of the photos I took that don't have my family in them!

That's awful. I have many pictures on file in fairly high resolution that aren't about us. If you want to pm me an email address, I'd be glad to send them along.

We can't go on a summer 2008 cruise either, since we've got DisneyLand planned for then.

I did it! We're booked for the May 10 repo cruise. Sk8ingmom: Did you book the August repo?

 

[I'mWong]

I'm sooooo jealous!!! I hope you all have a wonderful time!

YUP! See my sig! I got in early - we got a cat 9 for (cough, choke, sputter) reasonable price! When I looked an hour later, the price had jumped $2,700. I'm so excited I can't think straight. I leave for Hawaii in about a month & have't thought about that trip for a week!

Congrats Amesmom! I'm sure you'll have a blast.

 

[amesmom]

You'll have a blast, too. We booked a category 10, but got one of the secret porthole rooms. Actually, compared to the spring break prices we paid last year (we booked kinda late), this cruise wasn't bad at all---relatively speaking, anyway.

I was admiring your writing skills on the EB repo thread. You wrote the "Twilight Zone" parody intro, didn't you? Looks like you'll have a great group to sail with.

We're going to Hawaii in a month, too. Maui. I also haven't thought about it all week.

Have fun

Yup that was my parody. I just tweeked the ToT script. EB crew is a fun bunch.
When are you going to be in Hawaii? We'll be in Maui 3/11-14 & Oahu 3/14-18.

Well, not as close to you as we had hoped, but still close. We were really hoping for Norfolk, VA, HOWEVER DH go orders to Washington, DC. We'll be living in VA, just not the part we wanted. None of us are excited about the whole DC thing.

We'll be in Maui 3/8 - 3/14. We're staying at the Hyatt Regency. We'll keep an eye out for you. Have fun.
