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

I thought you meant Early Entry too! Too confusing. Lets make up some new "lingo" just to get others scratching THEIR heads for a change.
I'll start:
DMT (Dis-Meet Time)

Becky, here's a tip..... COME HUNGRY !!!!
*You don't have to rush off of the ship to get a great spot at Castaway Cay
* Bring an over the door shoe organizer for your supplies
* Bring a disposable camera because your digital may or may not work do to humidity
* If you are torn between to entrees, tell your server... he'll bring you both
* Don't miss Palo for dinner. And heck, go for brunch too.
* SKIP the surreal mud bath. Sounds like fun, playing in the mud with your boyfriend, but it's far from romantic! It was about 200 degrees in there and if you walk over to the sink to put cold water on your face the hot steam pours out from under it and burns your feet. I wanted to vomit. All for the low low price of 100.00
* Wait a few days to buy your pictures from Shutters. You can stack them up and keep them together. You may get nicer ones as the week goes on.

Just a few tips... I'm sure everyone else has some of their favorites as well.
Welcome to our little group!

Welcome not only to our thread, but to the DIS as well!! Keep hanging out here and you'll learn plenty. Maybe even more than you ever wanted to! If you have an AIM name and care to share here, post it. There's a lot of us here who chat regularly.

Really? you didn't like it? Me and DH tried it in Nov and we loved it! We had a mud fight and then cleaned up plus it was an HOUR without the kids!!!!
DH did comment that it was the most expensive shower ever.

Welcome, Becky (tggrdisney)!!! Our first cruise, too, but we're bringing the kidlets along...keep following us home... Guess we're stuck with them! Good thing they're so sweet...

Don't have any tips, but I've learned a lot just reading this board...happy planning!!

Happy early birthday, Rachel! Have a little cake for me (no steak, thank you!). Mine was last week...birthdays sure have lost their luster for me! Kids keep me excited...they think it's terrific, but maybe just a little strange that we keep celebrating my 27th birthday again...and again...and again...

Going to get a quote on WL...thanks for the encouragement!

Rachel,

Those are great ideas! Thanks.... I was considering the "mud bath" but I get very lightheaded if I in temperatures that hot for more than a few minutes...I can't even let the bathroom steam up!

Welcome Becky! I recommend reading trip reports You'll get a real feel for Disney cruising (and don't just read the ones on the Magic...read the Wonder reports too).

On April 9th (I think) the newest issue of the "PassPorter" for DCL will be published. Many of us are waiting with baited breath to get it. If you don't want to wait that long, see if your library has the current issue.....it can answer gillions of questions regarding cruising with Disney.

how do u like my look for the new year

Looks VERY nice......and for our other pals,,,here are a few CJ pages.....

There are the PLapLaP-ers at our private PALO Dinner courtesy of House_Of_Princesses

I have left the red page blank to put a picture of the DCL CJ members and their CJs on the 11/11 cruise.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Love the pages! But I don't know exactly what a CIRCLE journal is? Is passed around to different people to have them add pages?

Well, yes!
This is my work in my book...a front and back cover...a few intro pages and 4 pages for sign in tags....then my 2 page layout

I then mail it to the next person who does a Tag and a 2 Page layout according to my theme....which in this journal is "A Day On Land, A Day At Sea" I have 'hidden journaling' under the Golden Mickey and the Pat and DD Pix,,,LOL...each month it will be mailed around to the next person and in sept - I will have my book back....
The plan is too bring them to share on the cruise,,,,so everyone can see each others finished work...it is a fun way to get to know each other and also to learn new scrapping tecniques....chichi honey sarah got me interested after our 11/13/04 cruise.
