BTW, for those in our group who are on Facebook, I uploaded some pics from our WDW trip today.

Also I forgot, last Friday we got a present from the Dream Squad!!!! We walked into One Man's Dream in Hollywood Studios to pass the time before we could use our Toy Story Mania Fastpasses and the Dream Squad was there and we got Dream Fastpasses!!!! So we got another Fastpass for Toy Story.

M tell me how to get to the facebook group ... Please

That's funny! I never thought of it being a bad word. It's the name of a dog that is half cocker spaniel and half poodle.

That is the kind of dog I have, I guess I shouldn't say it here!

Debbie should be at WDW now(I think). Hope she has a great time. Wish I could be there!

Yes
She is, have been chatting with her most evenings about her adventures for the day..

I do know this, her first few days where spent at OKW, then she had to move to SSR (not her choice) DVC's choice - LOL
She does not enjoy SSR as much as OKW!

Brings a wireless router, with her, so she can surf from bed...

Comes home on the 14th.


Come to think of it she has not been on in a couple nights!!!

Yup Peter gave a good overview I move back to OKW tomorrow for a few days.

Did MVMCP last night so was out late. It was pretty packed. DVC and AP discount night. We waited for a while after the last parade to leave, and the line for the SSR bus was RREEAALLLYYYY LOOONNGGG. It took 6 buses in succession to bring down the line.

Beautiful day today and some rain coming tomorrow.

Only a few days left here

Do you have a facebook account yet? If you do just log in and over on the side click on groups and do a search for disney baltic cruise. It doesn't have to be exact to find it. Then just click where it says join group.

Wish I had brought a wireless router with us. Would have made my life a lot easier. I'll have to remember that next time.

The buses were awful when we were there last week. Sat. night we had dinner at the Yachtsman's Steakhouse and we took the bus to MK to get the bus back to WL. From the time we left YC to the time we got to WL was over an hour and a half. At MK they were rerouting all the buses coming in to all the Value Resorts and not sending any over to the other resorts. In hindsight we probably would have been better off going to Downtown Disney and changing buses there.

Ooh, Debbie, we were at the party last night too and it was a zoo. So packed and difficult to get around. We have been the last 2 years and I couldn't believe the difference in attendance. I don't think we will go again. Disney just squashed too many people in. I don't think the rides were too bad however, just actually getting to them was the problem.

We couldn't face waiting for the last parade,so we hung around for a whileafter the fireworks then ambled off. A full bus just went and another one was waiting, so we did well.

We're going to the last night of the party - Dec 19th. Hopefully since there are no discounts that night maybe the crowds will be lighter - but I doubt it

We are heading out to Mousefest in the morning. We'll be wearing orange Disney t's tomorrow at the 101 and kick-off reception in case anyone else will be there.

Good Morning Cruisers!

Nice day here today, hope to get out for a good walk! Spent 4 hours shopping yesterday but I think I am done most of the Christmas shopping now!

Sounds like all those at WDW are having a good time!

Have a great day everyone!

They're on my list to check out, but not the top 3 contenders....hopefully the others will be following suit soon.

They kept saying attendance was down, but you couldn't prove it by me. We were at the party on the 2nd and all we ended up doing was the parade, the fireworks and one of the shows. It was crowded and unbelievably cold for Florida. We were wearing three layers of clothes to try to stay warm.

It used to be that the crowds were less the week after Thanksgiving and got heavier the closer it got to Christmas. I think now that time of year is just getting too popular to visit b/c everyone wants to see the decorations that it doesn't matter when you visit it's going to be crowded. If if wasn't for the fact that we like that time of year for that very same reason I'd start going during the fall for MNSSHP and the F&WF instead, two great events, way less crowded.

Just want to say this, for those of you thinking of Doing other cruise lines...

We did the first med cruise, it was so busy that it really did not matter that we where on the Magic, that was the overall feeling we took from our med cruise.

After all was said and done, we said wow, where we on the Magic for 11 nights..


ended up being a place to sleep....
