Isn't Friday the 14th? I think we will be giving it a miss. We fly in on the 13th but usually crash out by 7pm with all the travelling and time difference. Not sure about going on Friday, I need to be up bright and early. I intend to be first in line at PC!

Sue,

Have you booked your flights yet? Where are you staying pre-cruise?

My first choice is also #3, with # 1 being my second. I like the Disney Script but I think the #3 is a little bolder and will stand out better since they are lasered onto the bands. If we get a couple more OK's on #3 I will go ahead and order mine. It looks like most of us will be ordering on our own, but if there is anyone needing me to order to save on shipping, just send me a PM or email me directly at Bambisim@aol.com.

I already let Penney know she will receive several orders for the same band.

I checked Soutwest also, says they are only booking up to Agust 22nd, Trevor's 1st Birthday!! Will keep on checking.

Linda asked me to post a picture of her sons.
Very cute

 

[Disneyday]

What a lot of cutie pies!
Belated Happy 40th birthday Izma, hope you celebrated your 40th in style.

Another vote for #3 from me, I think the Mickey head stands out better.

We have booked our flights with Virgin Atlantic for £1700+ car. Quite a bargain believe it or not! You only get the car for 7 days though and the insurance is around £300 so we are planning on renting something through Budget. I have not booked accomodation pre- cruise yet, can't decide between the airport or Cocoa beach area. I need to be near a good store to stock up on sickness remedies, Downy wrinkle release ( is that stuff any good) etc, etc.
I have a long list of things that I know will be a lot cheaper in the US.

Does anyone else have a 'to get' list they have made from reading tips on the Dis boards? If you would like to share it with me in case I have missed something Iwould be really grateful.
Sue

Well my hubby says #3 or #2, I like them all, so I'm good to go with whatever you choose, please pass along specific ordering instructions and I will get them for our group, I think I'm going to order extras, just in case we loose them!

Saturday is 8 months away! I love all the family photos! It's going to be so grand to meet you all in person.

 

[bambilin]

OK looks like we can all work with #3. I will order mine and then repost the link for the auction and let you know if Penney wants anything special mentioned at time of order.

Thanks so much for the posting assists. Trevor was only 10 days old in that pic, I need to get a new one on the computer, all his hair did grow back!!!

OK folks, the first order has been placed. Here is the ebay info

Item number: 190201292623
Custom Silicone Bands


When you place your order via "buy it now" and you go to pay, in the "note" section just mention:

"Lime Green Disney Magic 2008" and you should be good to go.

I ordered 10 bands and it came to $14.40 including the shipping, not bad at all!!

OK now that I have actual time on the internet (hubby has the kids in the livingroom) I need to get cracking on stuff for Trevor's 1st Birthday Party. We are having a Luau on 8/23 if any of you will be in New York then.

 

[izma]

I have ordered our bracelets! Thanks for all your work Lin!

Aloha!

Someone mentioned putting names on the bracelets at one point... I just emailed Penny and she said she'd be glad to add them to the back side of the band (not inside - just opposite side of the band from our group message) for an additional $.65 each. I'm thinking about doing this since I think the kids will take the bands off while in the stateroom and then get them easily confused later as to which band belongs to which person.

FYI - these are offered in 2 sizes; adult size is 8" and the youth size is 7". I may go ahead and skip ordering one for my youngest. She will be 3 and I don't think there is anyway she's going to be able to keep this on.

Thanks for getting this set up for us, Lin!

I am glad we went with #3. I just ordered mine. We bought rubber disney bracelets last time we went to WDW and on the inside we wrote our cell phone numbers in case the kids got separated from us. We used a sharpie and it never rubbed off on our skin in the heat. Just an idea if you don't want to pay .65 to have names put in. We are going the sharpie route again.

 

[coastiewifern]

I noticed there are a few of us coming from TX. Please post if anyone sees a good deal to orlando. We have not yet made air travel arrangements. We are kinda new to TX so I don't know who runs the best prices there. We will be flying out of Houston.

 

[LauraLap]

OK, ordered our bracelets! They will probably be too big for the little kidelts.......but I'll try. Now if only I can find a spot to put these and not lose them for 8 months................

Speaking of which................LESS THAN 8 MONTHS NOW!!!!

Thanks for the pm Mommycarlo. We have just eaten a big Sunday roast but I could manage a piece of that pie!

Keep the photo's coming, I love looking at all the little ones( and big ones - you Mommys all look so glamorous!)

Howdy Christie,

Continental Airlines Home Hub is Houston and they fly out of Bush International, they regularly put Orlando on sale and normally post any special fares late tuesday evenings. Southwest Airlines flies out of Houston Hobby but currently does not have it's fare posted that far out. If you are diligent, you can get Orlando to Houston for 89.00 one way on SWA, you can sign up on SWA website to receive their emails announcing their specials. Houston will be our connecting hub and we have flown both CA & SWA and have found both to be convenient. For both airlines it is a straight shot to Orlando! We should begin to see Nov. fares for SWA in early July. Good luck!
