Good old dad will be there to pick her up (mon will be there too).

Have fun tonight, all.

HI everyone!!! Sorry I missed you guys at the meet and greet. My DS was very upset when I tried to leave him in the cabin. He was supposed to be resting!! But I ran into Grumpy Gramps on the last day!!! Thanks again for the cabin magnets..they are also on my frig.

We had the best time ever. My mom is now a cruise addict!!! My son had a blast. We also had the biggest fit thrown ever this week too. I am going to write a review today and tomorrow. It is hard....not enough time but I owe it to all of those who did a review for me to read!!!!

Sorry to everyone that we did not make it the meet. But we did not even get on the ship until after 2:00. I want to say more like 2:30. By the time we go there Parrot Cay was done doing lunch and our bags were already at our door. Our bus had to do another pick up after us. So we where just getting done with food at that point. Gramps I am so sorry I missed out on the stuff you made. If I saw I would too have it on my Refg. The boys loved the ship we are akready talking about booking another one in a year. I think this was by far the best trip. I even almost got my whole book done. We would read at night while the boys would sleep. I will too try to get a trip report done on Monday.

Hi Mickey4!!
I started my trip report today! I hope I can finish it. I want to go again too. How did your kids hold up with WDW and the cruise. My son was absolutely burnt out by the time we left. He actually threw a couple fits on the way home. He has never done that before. Next time we will drive. I think he would sleep better getting there and back. He missed out on naps for a few days. It was crazy.

 

[mom2jandl]

We were actually on the same bus as Mickey4. It was nice bumping into you. I am glad I just took a wild guess that it was you. I wish we could have made the meet also. The time just flew by. We barely made the kick off party. I hope everyone had a nice time. We certainly did. Really loved our Cruise portion!

yes mom2jandl it was fun seeing you at the hotel. And great that both our DH's said the same thing about the posting. They never get it. I really wanted to go to the meet. We to did not get to the Sail away party until after it started. And then we were doing something all the time. We love the trip. My DH was not to thrilled about doing a cruise until we did now even he is asking when can we go again. We are thinking in 09. But we will 1st check on the new boats. We really want to do that if we can. We should start a new thread under trip reports. That is where we belong now. Because it is over . I guess we all have to plan the next one.

 

[mickey4]

Mom2jandl...
Just wondering did you get the book and if so what did you think of it. It is great for moms to remember those days so when our kids get there we will say I know we did the samething. It brings alot back.

Now that we are back I need a new count down so I should tell you all we have one week from Wed. until Zacharys Grad. from preschool and even in June I get my harry potter book. So I guess I can start that count down.

I think my son liked the cruise better then the parks (we went last Jan). It seemed like there were more to do at his age and less standing in line. Sooo I want to go on a cruise again. Now I have to casually approach my husband.
I think he will want to go too. My son said to me today, I wish we were on the boat again mommy. Yeah, me too. We were shopping at walmart. Back to the real world.

Hi all! Sounds like everybody had a great vacation. DH and I enjoyed getting to know grumpy gramps and Deb. It's a shame that we didn't get to meet more of you. Back to reality...

Great photo. I love it. We too had a great time I just wish we could meet more of you guys on the ship. We had a blast. Gramps now that I see you I know I did see you on the boat on Priate Night. I had Jack and Capt. Hook with me.

 

[RhondaInMA]

Glad to hear that everyone had a wonderful vacation. We had a great time as well. I am not much of a storyteller so my trip report will have to be told through pictures. Here is a link to some of my pictures taken during the week. I will continue to add more as I go through them. I did end up shooting 2200 pictures total. Hope some of these shots bring back some great memories....

Thanks so much for telling me his name. I am not good at all with names. I did read it off of his tag but forgot it by the time I got home. I couldn't remember if it was Arthur or Arnold...

Hi,
If I'm not mistaken we did exchange a few arrrr's and my Donald duck voice wasn't to bad...

[mickey4]

It is great that we are all still posting even after. We are going to book another cruise. We think we might wait until late 08 early 09. We want to wait and see what happens with the new ships. We would really like to sail on one of those.
