Thanks!! We won't be getting much rest tonight, just too excited about the trip.... I will try to remember to look for the sugar-free desserts & post what my findings are...

Thanks for the info V-man. I went ahead and printed our boarding passes, we got B. But since "Adults with children under 5" can go in the pre-board line, I assume they'll let us preboard anyway.

I'm so excited, nervous you name it! I don't know how I'll sleep tonight! We'll see you tomorrow!

All the bags are waiting to be loaded into the car in the morning. 3:00 am will come really quickly, then on the road at 4:00, be at airport at 6:00, flight leaves at 8:00...

ORLANDO/PORT CANAVERAL HERE WE COME!!!

I happened to see your question, so I took a quick run up to the dessert buffet.

The line was prohibitively long (still wrapped around from Lumiere's to the Promenade Lounge 20 minutes after opening) but I asked the server at the door and she confirmed that there are several sugar free desserts and they have their own table/section.

Only "1 Day Left" all you May 13th Cruisers!!!


Ok, here's the scoop for now. I did write in my journal during the flight, but all that info is in my laptop which has not been plugged in yet. I'm using my mom's computer for the time being. Once I get my laptop hooked up, I will copy and paste my journal entry.

We left Philly nearly 90 minutes late, and arrived in Orlando near 9pm, by the time we got our rental car and left the airport is was 10pm, then we hit HEAVY rains for about 30 minutes on the drive here to my mom's.

Angelina is already in bed, and the rest of us are heading that way very soon.

Safe travels to all who still are on their way, or will be heading out soon. My niece Teri called and said they were just about to enter North Carolina around 11pm.

Good-Night All,

Andy

I just wanted to pop on here and say Good Morning to everyone. I'm sitting here in the bedroom watching the run rise, it looks like it is going to be a beautiful day here. Don't know when we are going to be headed to the port area, it is only about a 90 minute drive to get there from my mom's, depending if we run intoany detours because of the fires. There were some strong thunderstorms with heavy rain that went through this area last night.

I guess that's it for right now, I have a few more messages to check, then I have to go up to the corner store to get some 2% milk for Hazel.

Be seeing y'all soon!!!

 

[TSirgey]

Have a saft trip everyone!!!

We just woke up and we leave at 11am for the airport. We are just soooooo excited!!!

I can't believe it is finally the day! We had a hard time sleeping last night.

See you at the Radisson or on the boat!!!

 

[Verandah Man]

I've got to make this short. We lost power at my mom's place and I'm working off the battery in my laptop. I just made a post to My Blog on my website. We now have to run out and get some breakfast. Hazel had the eggs all scrambled and ready to cook when the power went out. LOL!!!

 

[bpd196]

We are leaving for the airport in 1 hour, everyone have a safe trip and we will see you on the Magic party:

 

[Can't W8]

bpd196 & everyone else leaving today, have a safe trip. I'll be thinking of you. I start at 5 tonight and I am so antsy, can you tell? See you on the Magic!

 

[SQUIGGLE]

If anyone is still out there; have a safe trip.
We'll be leaving for the motel around 2 today.

Well, looks like there are just a few of us still at home anxiously waiting for tomorrow to get here. Just finished packing and realized I could use some new clothes. Oh well, next time, or I can do some duty free shopping.l Still need to get to the bank and go visit my mom in the nursing home. I know that none of us are going to be able to sleep tonight. Will be checking back later.

 

[Verandah Man]

Hi All,

We are here checked in at the Radisson. The rest of my group is at the pool, well, the ones who got sleep during their 20 hour drive from New Jersey that is.

I'm in the room because I had to have another precription called in at a CVS here in Cocoa Beach. I was given a prescription for ear drops to help relieve the pain, and I was also given a stronger antibiotic prescription as well. I'm trying to rest up so I can make the meet at Grills at 5:30.

After picking up my meds, we did stop by and see Shirley and Norm for a few minutes, but they were so busy we told them we would stop back next Saturday morning after we get off the ship. Shirley was hoping to meet everyone at Grills later, but they won't be able to get away from the shop. It's been a very busy weekend, with Mother's Day coming up on Sunday.

Tomorrow is the BIG day, the day we sailaway!!!!!!!!!

Here is a pic of my niece's daughter Annalyse by the pool at the Radisson taken a few minutes ago. Daddy bought the girls a virgin tropical drink, but I think Annalyse enjoyed the whipped cream more, LOL!!!

 

[Can't W8]

Cute Picture Verandah-Man. Seeing everyone in bathing suits is killing me.

Yes, Ragdoll, it's just a few of us still around but I'm shutting down at 5 tonight no matter what. My son and his fam are already on there way to my house and I need to beat them home and I need to pick up a few groceries on the way home as well.

To everyone that is traveling tomorrow, "Have a safe trip and I'll see you on the ship." I truly can't w8!

Verandah man you out there? I called Grills and the expected wait around 5:30 or later is 2 hours... want me to call and make a ressie or is there a bar area that everyone is planning on meeting at?

Hi There D, yes I'm still here. We do have someone from our group that was going to call Grills at 4:30 and have our name put on the wait list, hopefully, that has already been done by now. We are busy here getting ready, then will be heading over to Grills shortly.

 

[2angelsinheaven]

We're heading over now. DFiance' is in jeans and grey shirt, I'm in jean capri's and red shirt that says "Besitos". Hope to see you all there, this will be our first try at Grill's. If you see us come over and say "hello".
