I love yoour wording idea. I think it is perfect. I would like 3 adult and 1 child Please.Happy planning everyone!!!

We haven't booked air, transfers or night-before yet, so just wondering...
if we get in late, we'll stay MCO hyatt and do Disney transfers or town car,
if we get in earlier, we'll go on into port and stay at Radisson or Ron Jon's. I'm just wondering about the town car--I noticed Jackie said they were using one. Could someone fill me in or which one to check on and if they are more/less expensive than Disney transfers? Any input on any plan would be much appreciated...DH leaves it ALL up to me...

Melanie, there are several highly recommended town car services used by DISers. First, Florida Tours (a sponsor of the DIS!), I've personally used SouthernElegance and this time am using Tiffiany Towncars. A town car WILL be slightly more expensive than the three of you using DCL, but will be necessary if you decide to stay at a port area hotel. I know our towncar is $105 (plus tip) from WDW to the port.

The most convenient thing would probably be to stay at the airport Hyatt and take DCL to the port that morning (and you practically never have to touch your luggage). However, if you do arrive fairly early in the day it might be more fun to take a towncar and stay at the port area. There are plenty of folks from our group doing one or the other and hopefully will have suggestions for you. But I recommend you decide SOON as the hotels do fill up!

Hey, Michelle, I noticed FL resident rates opened up for some October Magic sailings this past week. Hopefully there will be one for our cruise too! I know cats 4-11 all still have availablities, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for our Florida cruise-mates

Jackie,

Your wording is great. We would like 2 child, 3 medium, and 3 larges for a total of 8.

Thanks
David

[jerry112]

Hi Jackie,

Please put us down for 2 medium and 3 large wristbands. They look great and the wording is perfect! Thanks for all the hard work and good luck to all those trying for ressies tonight!!

Ibouncetoo and I just got back from lunch - and saw Wendy's movie from the Magic July 2005 - GREAT!!!! Loved the photos and wanted to know who all those lovely folks are... your boys are adorable! Little Man #1 is a copy of your DH, and that Little man #2 is going to be some lady killer ! (I feel sorry for you when the girls start calling all three of those cutie pies!)

Ok, must sign off now, Faith and Hope want to go to their Aunties house now and play with her cat! OH, anyone up for the Emmy's tonight?

 

[tggrdisney]

There is no way I can watch the emmy's....have to get up at 3:00 for ressies...way more important! I will read about in the am!

 

[ibouncetoo]

I feel compelled to watch the Emmys......feel like it's a requirement of my job (hardly, but I like to think I'm in show business). I'm watching less and less television as the years go by, but still have a few favorites to look at and cheer for (the hunks of LOST, for example ). Don't anybody tell my GM I haven't watched our news in YEARS!

Something tells me I'll be nodding off, as I've been yawning all afternoon...maybe I need a pre-Emmy nap...right now!

 

[Vanvmom]

Funny Peg, no one has ever called any of our DSs images of DH Oldest and youngest strongly ressemble each other, but middle and youngest have the same face shape. Oldest looks a lot like my dad did at his age, except with my DH's head shape. Actually, oldest DS has changed a LOT since the last cruise (turning into a teen, and looks much more mature). As for others in the photos, the family that shows up often in the photos is needalatte's family (we cruised together). Others are part of the special DIS family of fun friends we met before our cruise.

 

[faireygod mother]

I hope they are showing pirates 2 when we sail. I think we are the only people in the world who haven't seen it yet.

David..I am ashamed to say that I have not seen POC1 yet, let alone POC2. DH is hoping it will be showing as he has not seen it either.

Jackie..I am okay with the wording as well. I do not even rememver what we discussed before, but what you have not pretty much sums it up.

I am waiting for 3am so I can book PALO for some of the others traveling with my group. I want to get the DIS Navigator finished now. I was waiting for the :final payment" so we can see who all is traveling with us.

Question to all.... Do you want your cabin highlighted in green on the Navigator? This way folks would know what room houses a DISer.

 

[Vanvmom]

Dee, we are fine with having our room numbers highlighted (2146 & 2148). We had fun on our last cruise walking up and down the halls looking at everyone's door signs and leaving notes on whiteboards. Yes...it's true, we are easy to amuse!

 

[ibouncetoo]

Question to all.... Do you want your cabin highlighted in green on the Navigator? This way folks would know what room houses a DISer.

Oh, that would be cool.....HIGHLIGHT me baby! We're 7612.


Dee....how many bracelets and what size(s)?

 

[pandamom]

Ok, I booked the stingray excursion and two day tube rentals and now I'm going back to bed. Hope everyone was able to reserve what they wanted!

 

[ibouncetoo]

Pandamom, did you ever see ANYTHING open up for Palo? (Except the Sat night dinner that was already there.)

 

[michelle9343]

Jackie
I have been checking daily to see if Fla reaident rates open for our cruise. I am thinking it wont happen untill after Sept 1st. Thanks for thinking of us
Dee i would LOVE out cabin # highlighted in green 2500.
Malanie
I think Jackies info is right on. If you arrive late stay at the Hyatt and take Disney transportation to the port. If you come in early I would stay a t a port hotel. We have freinds arriving from NY and we will be staying with them at the Raddison. If you did not want to take a town car you could rent a car at the airport and return it in Cape Canaveral. I know that Budget it located close to the Raddison.

 

[shelwoj]

Well we got our Stingray and tube rentals but no Palo. Guess I'll be with the rest of you without ressies standing in line!

 

[michelle9343]

Pandamom and Shelly
when are you doing the sting ray encounter? I guess the line for Palo ressie once we board will be long with all of us in it.
