November 11, 2006 - MAGIC - Special Western "Double Dip" Cruise 11/11/06

[DIS NURSE]

Oh yes......I must be careful about the Nov 11 and Nov 12th cruises....one year apart! I am thrilled to be part of them both!

Is there anyone on this thread who would organize the names of everyone and where they are from and where they are staying on ship and their "real" names as the time gets closer? Someone is doing this on my other cruise meets thread and it is pretty neat to watch the list grow.
Thanks, DIS NURSE

They did the same thing on my last cruise and included pictures. Grayfal has it some what started. I would be happy to help get this done as well.

Have a great weekend,
Dee

After holding a family meeting, it was decided that we will forgo the Disney Magic cruise next year and go to Jamaica instead (all-inclusive). Although, I will miss all of you that I met last November, the family is so excited about staying at Beaches in Negril Jamaica!! With all of the Disney vacations that we have gone on it was decided that we need to go relax on a beach for a while!! Also, more of the family is interested in going with us...Woo-Hoo!!

Have a great time everyone, and if you don't mind, I would like to check on here once in a while to say HI!

Trish

Hello All!

We were just on the May 7th Magic, which was incredible, and couldn't resist rebooking for a double-scoop of Castaway next year. It's killing us to have to wait so long before our next cruise, but we're expecting a future DISer this November so we'll just have to patient. This will be our 4th Disney cruise - 2 Wonders and 2 Magics.

Also joining us, as always, is my SIL "Kaykels" (who no doubt will post soon) with her DH and 3 kids plus my FIL.

Guess it's time to adjust the countdown timer!

 

[faireygod mother]

Donna, Welcome to you and your family. Glad you had such a good time on this past cruise. I think Disney is worth the money. Glad to have you all on board.

I'm HERE! I'm going! Now how do we fast forward our lives 18 months? I just got off the May 7th Western too and I'm in post vacation mourning. It was the BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST vacation I ever had. Although our friends will tell you different.... they had a 2 year old throwing up for 5 days. SO other than watching the little guy spew like a fountain at least once a day, our vacation was perfect. The Dis-ers were great too. Lots of people had "gifts" like blinking skull lights for pirate night and bubbles for the sail away party. I can't wait to do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a DD11, DD8, DS4... just add a year by the time we sail. I'm on deck 7 aft.

 

[faireygod mother]

Welcome Kaykels. We are right below you. We love it back there. Glad you had such a great time. I sure miss it myself.

 

[DIS NURSE]

Yeah! We will have DD (9) and DS (almost 7) at the time of sailing! Welcome! Late seating is our choice.....only beacuse of the "rush" factor and we really want to do the Dolphin Encounter on Cozumel! I refuse to be rushed on our vacation. My whole life is one big rush!

CONGRATULATIONS RYAN!!!!!

When another friend's daughter graduated from college a few years ago, she said she thought all the grad gifts should go to her, since she paid for the college, LOL!!

Funny you should mention "getting things together", because I was just talking to DH about getting the website set up for the two new cruises. We'll be working on it this weekend.

 

[kaykels]

I can't wait to do it again. I'm looking forward to the movie screen for movies under the stars. I don't know about the stingrays on CC though. I heard it took years to tame them in GC. Hopefully they'll import some Grand Cayman stingrays!

 

[house_of_princesses]

Greetings to all our new sailmates!! Trish....have fun in Jamaica. I suppose sooner or later we all have to experience something other than Disney!!

Happy Graduation, Ryan!

Happy 'So done with the Boston College Bills', Pat and Tom!! What will our new graduate be doing now that he's all educated?

I have not been receiving my e-mail alerts. What's up with that??? That and my computer hasn't been working. I hi-jacked a tower from the office, I couldn't stand not being connected.

Kaykels, one of my dd's is 11, will be 12 in November. I would LOVE for her to hook up with someone. She's shy, won't go anywhere on her own. At least not until she feels comfortable. Then she gets kind of like her mother: She has an e-mail address and an IM screen name and she's not here right now to ask what it is. Perhaps they can chat? E-mail? Let me know your thoughts.

So, we're all set for our October WDW trip! Just looking for cheap airfare now. Or we drive.

Whew...it's good to be back here on the DIS!!

 

[house_of_princesses]

A favor, please?

Will someone please let me know what my IM screen name is? Now that I have this different tower, I can't log in. I'm wondering if I have the correct spelling of HOP. I know I couldn't fit the whole thing, so something is truncated.

Thanks for your help!!

 

[chichihoney]

[GrayFal]

Hello All......
Vicki.....Glad your Back, Got your email...Sarah is right about your AOL IM oops - one word!!! HouseOfPrinceses

Ryan is caddying for the summer....making big bucks and hopes to get a law firm job for the fall....will take LSATs in October......and Law School hopefully next fall. If he doesn't have a job by October, maybe will can confince him to come to Orlando for a few days.

I booked my flights for $150 RT on Spirit Airlines Sat-Sat....if i had done Sat-Fri it would have been $125....but since MNSSHP is Thursday...I will wait until Saturday to come home.

Go to your "user cp" on the top of this page and see what threads you are subscribed to.....and see if you can add this one,,,,or just make a quick response to this note and make sure under 'additional options' that you have checked off 'instant email notification'

Okay - enough of this,,,,,back to the Beach!
TTFN

 

[house_of_princesses]

Back to the Beach?!?! What Beach?!?!

Are you on the move again??? I swear, Pat, we're going to have to attach a homing device to you and locate you via my GPS system!!

Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend. I know my dad is loving all the war movies they air during this time. Anyone see the concert broadcast on PBS? All patriotic songs. Beautiful.

Ok. Off to read to Becca. Nighty night!
