Northern Sights & Mickey's MAGICal Delights - 1st Baltic cruise - June 12,2010

[granmaz]

We moved 2 months after - and we love it! We are enjoying FL way more than we ever did CA. We've been to WDW 9 days so far and we've only been here 2 months!

We were hoping to take advantage of FL res rates for a cruise in Feb but I'm thinking with our Western in Oct 09 and booking this one we'll have to make do with day trips to WDW.

Are you taking the cruise you booked on board or transferring it to this one?

I wish we could move to Florida. I'm glad you are enjoying it and getting to WDW so often.

Have you signed up for any of the Mousefest meets yet?

Not yet. We will probably do the Fantasmic dessert and viewing on the Saturday. We did that last year and it was quite good. Not the best view, but we get desserts!!!!!!!! John liked having the VIP backstage pass and going backstage.

We are actually staying up at Universal overnight on the 11th, so don't get back to the Beach Club till the Friday. WE have the Illuminations viewing on Friday night.

How about you?

Ok, I have been scouring the cruisecritic forums and checking out possible excursions. There are some really cool things to see on a Baltic Cruise!
Among my list of things to do so far:
1) Ice Bar in Copenhagan They give you a parka and gloves in a sub zero bar and serve you vodka in ice shotglasses. As Scott would say KEWL!
2) I danced for 17 years of my life. I would love to see a russian ballet in st petersburg
3) horse drawn carriage through the forest looking for trolls in Oslo

And lots lots lots more. There is just so much to do! How exciting is this trip going to be? WOW

Ok, my brain is tired from all the possibilities. Going to bed now. Night all!

That all sounds really cool. I need to start doing some research too.

This trip is definately going to be exciting. Is it 2010 yet?

Any word from IC Emily? We called and harrassed MS, still no points. But Kevin transferred money this morning for the deposit just incase we have to book with cash and change to points. I'm ready!

Nothing yet. I faxed them again just in case just to let them know we're still interested and what cruise and what room we want and begging them to call me.

Someone on the main board said they had been confirmed for a Cat. 2 for the cruise after us, but didn't say if IC had called them or not. So I'm starting to get a little antsy.

Well that stinks. Hopefully you will hear something real soon. Until then just daydream with me and read Baltic TRs That's what I have been doing all day.

I've pretty much been doing the same thing. I'm beginning to think that IC isn't going to call anyone at all and it was just a waste of time to fax them in the first place.

Well it worked the last 2 cruises, and the 2 next year.

He just kind of frowned and said it was a bit early to be thinking about that!!! Then he said he hadn't really thought about going there.
I said he would have his birthday in Finland - he just smiled knowingly!!!

I might just ask DU to 'book' and then see what happens. We can always cancel and change to the TA. I daren't tell him the cost just yet.
