Hello Double-Dippers!
hehe...I was calling my sister to say "Neener, neener...I get to leave work early!"
clynneYES come up Friday and stay at the CCI...no that wouldn't be stalking.
AAA discount is $109 for a regular room and $119 for a deluxe (slightly more sq. footage). We could all do dinner and plan what things we may want to hit together on Saturday before you have to leave. ohhhhhhhh, where to have dinner....Storyteller's.....Goofy's Kitchen.....
vanvmom, glad you are going back for a second day and will get to do Pirates....I can't wait to see it too!
alisbarc, here's the story as it stands so far:
Shelly (shelwoj) will be doing DIS buttons(pins), you need to PM or post what name(s) you want on them. We're doing DIS name and real name, and if the rest of your party wants a pin, you need to say what name you want on those. Some are choosing to have nothing but the name, some have asked for the cruise dates on them...just let Shelly know which you want.
We will be ordering silicon bracelets (you know, like the yellow Livestrong or the gillion others out for 'support' groups). They will be about $2 each, come in adult and child sizes, will be neon green with glow in the dark lettering that will say something like: Double-Dippers Magic Cruise 11/11/06 **or** Twice the Magic Double Dip 11/11/06....we'll be voting on the exact wording in a little bit (at about the 75 day mark). I'll be ordering these and will mail them out in advance if people want them to wear departure day.
DIS meet will be 3pm in the Promonade lounge...this location covers us if there are weather issues, plus comfy chairs, plus bartender (hehe). And I bet many of us will rally at a certain location (deck 10 starboard?) for the sail away.
We're planning on having a 'group lunch' on Thursday (second sea day) at Luminere's to celebrate all the birthdays/anniversaries/weddings/vow renewals/whater else that are going on in this group. Therefore, many of us will be attempting to book Palo brunch on Monday (first sea day).
As Wendy mentioned, a mess of us have booked the Mayan Ruins tour in Costa Maya with the "Native Choice" guys (David & Ivan). If you think your group may be interested I'd suggest checking this out
www.chacchobenruins.com as it's filling fast (if not already full).
There has been some talk of 'exchanges' (like the kids exchanging postcards from their home area), but nothing organized or finalized for that.
I think that's it....well.....there is a Guide to Magical Drinks in the works....for those that may like to see what exotic/tropical adult beverages are available.
