For those who have yet to depart and have been worrying about bad weather, worry no more. The clouds have parted and all is clear. Here's what it looks like right now. That's Catalina Island, which we'll pass on our way out of port.

HI ALL:goodvibes
I see that there are some newbies posting and also wanted to say:welcome:
even if you are a lawyer--lol:wave: See what happens when you don't post for days.. Well the flight to LAX was good but cramped as I am 6'1 and 250 lbs. did,'t know mu legs could fold that when when the seat in front went back:scared1: We boarded the supershuttle which was right out the baggage claim door and the e-ticket ride began:car: We picked the right time to eave the LA area and head to DLR--it was a real white nuckle ride never the less as we raced,dodged and I think even parlayed our way to the GCH--phew:crazy: I was wearing shorts when we arrived and almost froze with the 60 degree temp.. We finally got a room at 1:00 overlooking the pool and settled in as neither DW or myself slept the night before..We ended up with 4 checkin and 2 carry on bags:scared1: We ended up getting 3 day hopper passes:woohoo: Woke up at 7:00 or 0700 and was raring to go:hyper2: The skys didn't look to inviting and sure enough it started to rain:cloud9: We went into DL when it opened and started to walk around and my back started to go wacky so we got one of the electric carts.One thin is this is the way to as I went through most of the exits to the front of the lines and we saw all of DL and rode all the rides I could in the 1 day--even though I had to buy a warm jacket or freeze...:faint: We came back to GCH for our ressie at Napa Rose which was real nice..:lovestruc I am going to post part 2 next post..aaaarrrrggghhhh Jamrs:firefight
 
HI ALL:goodvibes
Post 2--To answer an earlier post as to cooler and beverages.. You cannot carry a cooler on board except for medical needs but, yocan u put a collapsible in your luggage for ice down..You carry beer or water or whatever on board just not in the cooler..We used a baggage carrier befor when we boarded with soda and water..O.K. where was I oh yes ..popcorn:: Today we got up about 0830 and found no rain just cloudy but the tv said it would clear.:scared1: We found that Disney Cruise had set up a hospitality desk up in the lobby area and we were able to pre-check in for the cruise:wizard: No line for us tomorrow as we already have our KTW card in hand..HE HE:banana: It was nice to be part of the swiller crew as we finished with thier looks of confusement:duck: We went to DCA and saw what we could and rode what I could.. We got on the farris wheel with this couple and young son from San Diego--We got to the part where the cubicle rolls toward to the inside of the wheel and the guy from SD went flying off the seat into the floor as the cubile was rocking so bad, his wife had to grab the child as he went flying also..:scared1: Needless to say I told the attendant to stop and let all off as he was sprawlwed in the floor of the ride unhurt:scared1: ..We are in the room now and are going back out to DL to see the Indie show..Talk to all of you tomorrow..1400 Mickey pool. I also made up tags for the current group but will have to give them out as fishies since I was told I would have to put them in my check in through security at the port.Mine are different from the DIS tags...Drink Hearty ye maties--YO HOpirate: Jamees:disrocks: :rockband: :jumping1: :dancer:
 

Hi JRP (is it James?). Thanks for the warm welcome. I apologize for my profession, but I assure you I'm one of the good guys. :hippie:
 
Here comes the sun.. do do do do, here comes the sun and I say... it's alright.

Come on sing along - I know you all know it! It has warmed up nicely and the rain finally went away. Had a great time at the Aquarium. Although I have to ask - Where did all these people come from? Sheesh, you'd think it was a 3 day holiday or something. :lmao:

Heard about the helicopter crash on Catalina Island that took from Long Beach! My heart goes out to their friends and families. :hug:

James, good to hear from you! I've been wondering how you were fairing in DL. I will admit to a bit of envy: 1. You're in DL and I LOVE DL... and 2. You have your KTTW card already and are ready to board!

:surfweb:
 
18 Hours!!!

This time tomorrow I should be sitting down to dinner on the Magic. Woo Hoo!!!

Great to hear from you James! So glad you're enjoying Disneyland....one of my favorite places.

I'm 3/4's packed and doing a few last minute things.....I'm trying to pace myself to get everything done at a reasonable time so I'm not up half the night.

Glad the ocean are looks nice, it's still nasty out here in Moorpark.

Oh WOW!! Is this a view from home!!!!

Love Catalina!!!

See you soon!!
 
So glad to hear from you James! Sounds like your having fun! I'd love to go the Napa Rose! Haven't been yet.

I'm confused...I read where you could bring cooler with 'something' in it, just NO ice. Guess, I'll just pack the wine in a carry on case??

Ok, if you see them dragging a woman with her holding on tight to a black bag.....cheer for me:laughing: :laughing:

Sun is shinning bright here:cool1:

I'm all packed and we are heading out to dinner:drinking1

Glad to hear the Attonery is a good guy:cool2:

Whats a KTW card? Does that mean James and Swanky will be by the pool first awaiting the rest of us:beach:

here comes the sun...do do do do.....:goodvibes

How'd you guess? :eek: Don't worry, I'm in-house corporate counsel, so I won't be serving you with any subpoenas on the ship. :laughing:

I don't suppose there'll be much time for posting today because everyone will be getting on the cruise, but good morning everyone and

safe travels!

See ya topside!
 
Hello All
In 2 hours we will be heading for the airport. :cool1:
In other news, there is a BIG possibility that we will not make the meet :sad: :sad: There seems to be a lack of time issue. ( I will leave it at that) Soooo, since I am down the hall from Ellen I will get the fish bait list from her.
Dh and I will both have the lime green mickey heads in our lanyards and you have seen pics of my family. I have curly "strawberry" blonde hair and light skin. PLEASE if you see us say HI. I have REALLY enjoyed talking with all of you! :dance3: If I don't see you right away there is always the "I have your cabin number and will stalk you" optiion.:cool2: Continued safe travels.
Mary:banana: :banana:
