May 13, 2007 EARLY Roll Call 5/13/2007 4-Night Wonder

To help calm your worries... someone stated on a posting that they have all the required docs ready at port in case something goes wrong and you dont recieve them or loose them etc. However, I do know how fun it is to get them in the mail!!

They tell me that but they did say the only thing I really need is the tags for our suite case's. All sounds good with the way they are shipping it. And they will give me the tracking number so that is a good thing.

I called DCL today but no luck on landing a FL resident rate for the room my MIL is staying in. She said they have the special rates for sailings up to May 6th at this point. I guess I will try back again as the trip gets closer!

 

[mickey4]

hey I just had to share that my count down ticker changed. From counting weeks to days. It looks wonderful to see days on that list instead weeks. I am so looking forward to seeing hours.

Scottie hopefully something comes up for you real soon. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

 

[scottie]

You are lucky to be down to the days only! I cant wait for that to arrive on our counter!

well i think it has finally stopped snowing here, and now the rain. i just have to remember we are down to 26 days.

 

[scottie]

First 29 days now someone with 26 days... ok I am getting jealous!!

Hi everyone!!!

It is warming up in Indiana !!! Yeah. I am feeling better and I can start packing for the trip!!!

Scottie, I have been trying to get a Military rate for our cruise. I check states and seniors too. I have come up with nothing. It seems we have a popular cruise date. But I am not giving up. Plus I bought a lotto ticket. It could happen.

 

[mickey4]

Yes I must say it is great to be less then 30 days. I have been thinking of packing lately. I pulled out stuff for the cleaners and stuff to get pressed. It is fun thinking about packing.

 

[scottie]

Here are my two thoughts on the various discounts that are missing for our cruise date:

Either it is too early for them to release the specials...but I doubt that one as they have specials listed for cruises just shy of our sailing.

My other thought on this is that we are the first sailing after the Magic leaves for the Mediterranean, so the Wonder will be the only ship in FL= HIGH DEMAND from our sailing on. Bummer for us I guess.

If you do win the lottery, please consider giving all your loyal DIS cruisers a ship board credit, please

 

[mickey4]

I am with you on that ship credit. That would be a nice gift.

Scottie I think you are right about the wonder being the only ship. That makes sense. That might mean too that our ship will be full I hope it does not feel over crowded.

 

[scottie]

If I recall correctly, one of our cruises was near capicty and it did not feel overcrowded. Of course there was a slight bit of having to manuver around others in the most popular areas of the ship but nothing we couldnt handle... even with a stroller!

 

[scottie]

Has anyone been reading the thread about the craziness recently during a show in the Rockin' bar D on the Magic? Sounded like a real mad house! I was wondering if they have a similar show/event on the Wonder too, but can’t seem to locate info.

 

[mickey4]

No Scottie I have ot heard about it. Do you have the link to it so we can read it.

 

[mickey4]

I am really oping we are not to overcrowed. I really want this part of our trip to be the best feet up enjoy what we want to type of trip. After 4 days at Disney with the boys I think I will need that. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Maybe we will get luck since most kids are still in school that it will not be to full. Maybe the later cruise's will have that problem more than us.

I have read that thread. I guess we always have the chance of running into rude people whether it be on a Disney cruise or in the local grocery store. As far as the crowds.... not my idea of a good time. I would walk away from that type of environment no matter how good the show was.

 

[scottie]

Here is the requested link to the posting about the Rockin D Bar. Enjoy!

I agree, if it got that crazy full I would pick up the kids right away and head out the door!

 

[mickey4]

Scottie that is sad sad story. I would be so upset. I thing I would have gone off. Ok maybe not with my kids there. But still people need to learn respect. and if the adults are that way how are their kids. I hope nothing like that happend to us on the ship. I would be real upset.

 

[scottie]

We will just hope stuff like that doesnt occur on our sailing, and I doubt it will!

 

[mickey4]

I would not think it would. I mean this is Disney after all and that is the only time I have heard of something like that.
