Doogie,
That GC excursion sounds great! I will be there in spirit. Did you get to Indy for the Brickyard 400?

We are on the final countdown.
Not for Disney but for our newest Disney fan.

Baby is due Sept 12th!

Lampy, the lake looks great! Is there a slalom course tucked away on the lake?

Bill

Welcome Heart!! I have a DS 12 and DD 10.

Don't worry about not being able to keep up; I can't either. These folks are just a bunch-o-big-hearted-country-boy-DisneyCruise-fanatics who like to have a great time on VAAAAAAAAAACATION. The only one who can truely go all night is Lamps... he's a legend. I didn't see him as much as I thought I would on the last cruise... he was like Casper the friendly ghost; he'd just appear all jolly and happy.

Ken, glad you can join us w/ NativeWay!!! The rest of your clan doesn't know what they'll be missing!

Hey Bill,

Good luck near the 12th. No I didn't go to the Brickyard 400, I have too many teeth to goto a NASCAR race. I love openwheel . I'll think of you if I see the giant grouper on CC. I hope it doesn't stalk me. I'm not putting chips in my swimsuit this year. I'm taking Cheeze Whiz. Willie, stop laughing.

WElcome "Heart" to our cruise board. If you would like to get a copy to who's cruisin with you on an excel spread sheet, send me a PM with your email address and I'll forward you a copy. Of course we would love to add you to our list.

Doug, if you could pm or email all of us that are going with your home address, we can send you our $50 so you will have that much to help cover the costs.

Thanks for putting this excursion together.

I'll second that!!! Do we just send $50 for our group or can we pay in full?? I'd prefer to get it "out of the way" if that works better, just let me know!

Thanks a bunch!

Ken - also if you are making any revisions to the spreadsheet we are now on Late Dinner Seating -- and actually I think others listed as early are also now late!

Sherri

 

[KennyK]

Sherri,

I'm always updating the list as I get new info or added cruise members. I'll change your dinner seating to late. Thanks

Ah, come on Doogs, just think how much fun it would have been if the grouper had decided he wanted some of those chips in your pocket. he he
I hear that the Capt Mickey statue is back in the cove somewhere at CC. We will have to do another group snorkle to find him.

Our kids started back to school last week.(Aug 10th) I have heard that next year our Texas schools will not be able to start til after Labor Day. But we will lose days at the Thanksgiving holiday week, etc. That is just more of a case for me to book the 10 day Christmas cruise for 2006. Since Thanksgiving will probably be out for 2006. Also, sports wise, Christmas time is better than Thanksgiving for DD's. Sooooo....... We may be rebooking while onboard, after all.

[LAMPSKIES]

Doogie....speedo.......chips....and a BIG fish........awwwww come on Willie I just woke up and got to work..... Actually I was getting Alii her school snacks (they started today) and there was the "cheese wiz" that we are supposed to use to attract the fish......My "girlfriend" should be available next Tuesday so we can start to hammer the rest of the onboard stuff down........

 

[Tri-circle-D]

If it isn't too late, I would like to get my family on the list for the Nativeway excursion on G.C. We are a party of five, two adults and my DD's who are 14, 10 and 10. Thanks!

 

[LAMPSKIES]

O.K. all DD Jessica....15 going on 21 asked who all was her age. Looks like her friend isn't going. Alli is now 13 so they can both go to the teen club but who wants to hang with their "little sister"

 

[WMILLER86]

Lampy,

Tell her that my DD Hayley is bringing a friend named Haylee. They are both 15. She can hang with them if she wants. Tell her to check in on the teen board going for our cruise at

If my fingers are correct that makes 35 .

NativeWay had our reservation, I just confirmed with them 10 minutes ago. We're looking at 9am - 3pm. We're all ashore @ 7:30; we may be able to make 8:30? I think we were ashore by 8 last year? More details to follow. We'll meet somewhere before heading to the auditorium to catch the tenders.

Gang, I'll pm you with my address.

 

[DOOGIERUNNER]

Here's what was in the confirmation email from NativeWay. Looks like it's $55 not $50. I see $50 on the web site. I'll ask about this.

"Pleasant Greetings from Grand Cayman. and thanks for contacting us
again!

I have reserved a boat to accommodate your party of 25-50 on our
November 22, private charter, "Rays, Reef, and Rum Point" excursion. The price is $55 USD per person.

The tour departs the pier between 8:30 AM - 9 AM Eastern Time. It
completes at around 3 PM Eastern Time. We ask that you check in no later
than 8:15 AM Eastern Time. When you come ashore, look for the person
carrying the sign that says Native Way Watersports. You may also ask for us
at the information booth at the cruise ship terminal.

We provide free use of all snorkeling gear and vests, food for the Rays,
and complimentary punch and bottled water. At Rum Point, you will be
provided with a nice grilled lunch. After the tour, you will have two
options for drop off: back to the pier, or, at 7-mile beach (where you can
taxi back to the pier at any time for $4 per person).

We ask that you provide at least 72 hours advance notice to cancel. If
your ship is unable to dock in Grand Cayman, we will automatically cancel
your reservation, at no cost to you.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I look forward to seeing
you in Grand Cayman on November 22!

Sharon Ebanks"

I read on the Cruise Critic board that the lunch is pretty good. Worth the xtra 5 bucks to me.

[Scorpio1112]

Sounds Great to me!!!

Just let us know if it is easier for you to take the full amount or just the deposit! The $5.00 extra is fine here!

[KennyK]

Doug,

Ok with me also, looks like a keeper.

Great job,

Thanks,

Hi All, sounds like fun, too much fun is happening here!
Glad to see there is another buckeye is on board
Lamps, did you book Christmas '06 western?
Julia wants to do eastern only next time...wants to see what the other side of the world looks like.

If we are on NativeWay by 9:30am...does that mean the party starts at 9:31am? Or does it not stop from the beginning(sailaway party)

Yesterday, at Federated's golf outing, the Hole in one prize was 30K down on a 65K Corvette Convertable. Well i purchased 2 Mulligan tickets...
Well, i am still driving my Cobra and everybody else is driving there car too...
They had 288 golfers on a 3 course golf course. That's alot of people

See ya later...Got to go to CA again mon-wed.
