November 12, 2005....7 Night Eastern...Who Else?

[DIS NURSE]

AAAAAAaaaaaaa, yes! I just returned from Timon's thread and stared at the exercise room photos in pure glory as I now see the have MY spin bikes! I spend many hours a week on those great Le Mond spin bikes at my gym. They are the absolute best on the market....very spendy....about $1500 each.

Looks like the room is bigger, right? Looks like the tradmills still look out over the Bridge.

I confirmed my suspicions, starting this Saturday's sailing they are testing the staggered dining. Guess no one will know when they are eating until we board?

Is anyone in our group signed up to do the sting ray excursion at CC?
Hope the lil' guys come home! If not, that's what is great about booking excursions with DCL.....weather or whatever's the problem...you'll get a full refund.

So with the nets down, can't the sharks come in now?
If they came in and the nets go back up, how do they get the sharks back out?
I know...... we'll show them awoltoday's face and they'll all swim back out with their tails between their fins.

So, barkley, you had to go and throw salt on my open wounds, did ya? I am so mad at my dumb TA, I could scream! She is really not even my TA. My original TA for this booking is my friend who this lady has since fired and took over all the accounts! I think she is so mad at my friend that she is taking it out on me! She had the goll to tell me she has my cruise docs and then say, "sorry....I am leaving the country on a cruise and you'll have to contact me when i get home."

So I have been doing this while waiting impatiently! By the time I get them I may have lots of questions for you experienced form filler-outers. It leaves me a matter of days before we leave to get them all done and I work full time until the day we leave! AGH! Bad TA! Bad TA!

So glad she didn't get our business for our Double Dip DCL cruise next November. Some TA in Chicago is handling that one.

Princesshaleysmom....if you can't find enough alien green Mickey heads let me know asap, as I, too, pilfered our local Home Depot many months ago thinking I would use then somehow. Now that we have wristbands, I really have no use for them. I did, however, already glue them back to back to make them more sturdy. I probably have 10 of them. I could always mail them to you.

 

[PrincessHaleysMom]

DisNurse - the agent should have gotten you the tickets before she went out of town. How very unprofessional that she is holding them hostage! Any of my clients would have beaten down my door! When is she getting back? You can always call Disney and tell them she is gone and you need your tickets now! They can reprint them real easy.

 

[MomtoGav&Eric]

OK, now I have to ask what the green paint is being used for. I read in PassPorters about decorating your door, but are you all doing a common theme? I'd love ideas! Also...I heard the Magic was recently in dry dock (I'm sure you have all discussed this already...but I'm going to ask anyway!)...do we know what all the changes were that were made? Is that big screen on the deck in Timon's thread new?

 

[Houseforsale]

Sorry your TA is awful Disnurse. Our TA was leaving town on Friday, but called to tell me late in the afternoon she had our docs and was sending them out before she left. We got them first thing Monday morning. She has been great and even arranged for us to have free T-shirts from the DCL with our names on them. Too cool. Hope you get your docs soon one way or another.

she did'nt plan on cruising cozumel did she

i hate using t.a.'s that are not within arms reach. i read on the boards about how great it is to use dreams unlimited, but then people post how frustrated they are trying to deal with "well this department handles this, you have to call xxx for that part of your trip" give me a good old fashioned local travel agent whose office i can walk into. course we did'nt use a t.a. for this trip

glad you got your exercise photo fix

 

[PatzFan_Jay]

Hi, sorry about that....I still want them....can you send the address again to me? I will send the check out tomorrow...promise! Like everyone else, it's been crazy with work lately....I apologize....we want 5 though..you have it right...Thanks!

TA....sharks......

 

[nick262]

Um...does anyone notice that we have posted almost a 100 post in a 24 hour period? If we keep this up we will hit over 3000 posts before we leave. Are we still saving 2000 for C&D&F?

 

[PrincessHaleysMom]

I think it is all the excitement - we can't keep our mouths shut!
Whoever gets 2000 has to do an entire tribute in their post to C&D&F. It had to be good - no one liners!

 

[PrincessHaleysMom]

OK - there is still time to make the list of the "cool people".
I will wait till I am sure everyone has had a chance to respond this one last time! Tomorrow morning the list goes out!

are we saving 2000?

DisNurse don't forget to ask your TA on your next cruise to have the Docs sent right to you. If they say they cant send me a PM and I will help you some more.

Barkley as far as Dreams goes. Don't always belive what people type(hard to express self and things sound different then they read). Go to the source . There is only one phone number for Dreams so there is only one number that can be called. As far as different people helping someone well there is a Cruise Team that handles all cruise changes and for a Land trip the agent handles all problems and changes. Hope that sheds some light on Dreams

 

[PrincessHaleysMom]

Or you can support an independent cruise specialist who gives you personal service (like me). You can find people such as myself in your local area - I have clients in California and my very best client is in Colorado! Not all travel agents are evil (many are pretty bad though).

Princess...I take back my shark comment!!!

We're signed up for the stingray excursion. Do they let us bring spearguns? I guess not. But it would come in handy for the sharks, too. And, the occaisonal TA that leaves town with your cruise docs in their office! Remember, it all tastes like chicken!

Did your TA go to Cancun or Cozemel for vacation? That would be fitting.

OK, now I have to ask what the green paint is being used for. I read in PassPorters about decorating your door, but are you all doing a common theme? I'd love ideas! Also...I heard the Magic was recently in dry dock (I'm sure you have all discussed this already...but I'm going to ask anyway!)...do we know what all the changes were that were made? Is that big screen on the deck in Timon's thread new?

Drydock changes DO include the new "Dumbotron" at the goofy pool. They expanded the fitness center (eliminating the bridge catwalk and hence bridge tours). They got rid of scoops and installed a broken self-serve ice cream machine. They made some minor changes to Parrot Cay. They did general upgrades (carpet, etc.). What did I miss? Nothing, I guess, since I haven't been onboard before!

BTW, I'll keep collecting any updated info until we see C&D&F again. I hope it's soon! Still a lot of problems down there from the news I've read.

So, did we decide that the wine/chocolate tasting was going to take place daily from 3:00-5:00 on deck 7 aft?

 

[PrincessHaleysMom]

If you would like for me to arrange one of the private lounges be available for a "private party" for the wine/chocolate" tasting I can put in a request. Not sure they will have any times left for such thing, but I can ask. Most cruise lines do it for me with no problem!

 

[4formickey]

did I make it? Do you guys work? After 10 1/2 hours at work, I come home to find close to 100 post. Go White Sox.
