Karen, loved the photos. Your boys are real cuties!

Scott, hope you are having/had a good flight home. I love cramming in more WDW time before heading to the airport.

Spent some time playing on Facebook this morning...still can't seem to navigate my way around there. I swear they keep changing the foremat on me...

I signed up for the facebook thing, but I haven't used it yet. Probably have to be a lot younger than me to figure it out!

I'm glad the weather this week was so beautiful, so everybody had a good time atWDW. Sorry I didn't get a chance to see anybody this trip, maybe next time!

Oh, yes, I've run up those numbers. My set up (cat 11EB, cat 7WB w/two people) would come to $120 per night for my share vs. $283 per night on the Baltic (3 in a Cat 10). Makes you realize what a value the TAs are and what a premium the Baltic is.



So true.

My friend who is a cruise travel agent, but who doesn't usually book Disney thinks we are crazy to go on the Baltic with Disney.....she keeps quoting me the same trip with other cruiselines........but we've been on so many wonderful trips with all our Dis friends that it would be hard to switch now.

Transfers Does anyone know if Disney transfers include transportation from Gatwick Airport? If we fly Virgin Atlantic, they land at Gatwick.

gosh, it looks like everyone is busy this Saturday afternoon, I've been talking to myself for a while. oh, well, see you all later on........

We have a Harry Potter tour here? I didn't know that.

I thought the Harry Potter tour was in the very north part of England, up in Yorkshire.....not in the south. Unless they have one in London someplace.....gotta find out!

I can't seem to stop playing on Facebook! I just started so I don't know what the other foremat was, but I know a lot of people complain about the changes. Facebook: enabling the nosy.

Decided to play.....used someone else's words...

Love the words! Looks great!!


Karen, Glad to see you had an excellent time! Those desserts looked yummy!!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they're picking up at both Gatwick and Heathrow.

Yea! What airline were you flying? My seats never looked like that? That isn't the new widebody plane, I didn't think they really flew in the US yet. Or is that 1st class on some airline?

I think it might be Virgin.

I just realized that if we depart Dover on June 12, we will be in Russia very near the summer solstice.....and in Stockholm AT midsummer's day! I think this is very exciting.....it will be light almost 20 hours a day the whole time we are cruising.......NEAT! Dancing on the deck at Midsummer! WOW!

VERY COOL! AND....makes those inside cabins even more valuable...

Yes, Virgin Upper class. Their top class, but not actually First class, more like business class. Very nice too!!!

This is John in his suite. A little blurred, sorry.

You can lie down and watch tv, and you get a thin mattress and duvet if you want a sleep.

Very cool David, thanks for doing this.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Well, I don't think there will be any getting up to watch the sunrise...at least not for me...

It might be more like STAYING up to watch the sunrise!

I was going to say the same thing.

That's my thinking as well... At least that is how I sold the inside cabin to my daughter!
