Jon,
If I have my geography correct, Angier, NC is near Clayton. We have several very good friends that live in Angier! Small world. Jenny

Jenny - you do have your Geography correct. I actually work only about 10 minutes from Angier. Yes, it is a very small world.

Welcome Aboard Randi!! Where are you from? . . . and before I post anything, is Kennedy your daughter?

 

[RandiBeth]

Thanks for adding us to the Roll Call! I forgot to include: Kennedy is my DD and we are from Pennsylvania! Thank you!

 

[RandiBeth]

What's does anyone think about doing a day or two at the parks before cruising? Thanks for your opinions!

We have done that in the past but won't be able to this time. We prefer to go before the cruise - we run through the parks doing as much as we can and then get on the ship to relax!!

Hey there,
Where in PA are you from. My son is going to 12 and my daughter will be 10 on the cruise. Maybe they could hang with some of the other kiddos that they are chatting with through this board.

I had more to this message . . . I'm not sure what happened. . .

Do the "kids" already have their own thread? If so, I could link that to the first post. If not, I could create one for them . . . let me know . . .

Hi there,
I am from Blandon which is on the north side of Reading. We are about an hour away from you. Which airport are you using and when are you leaving? We are leaving out of Philly and leaving on Thanksgiving day. Let me know about chatting with you about our kids getting together. That would be great!

Has anyone done a snorkeling excursion in Grand Cayman? I think that is what we would like to do in that port. We do not want to do the stringrays because my daughter (and my husband) will freak out. I need to find one that would be good with kids (almost 8 and 10). My son loves to snorkel and does very well - my daughter does not like the taste of salt water and will not put her head in the ocean water but she enjoys just swimming along with us and looking at the fish from above the water.

Anyone have any good suggestions based on past experiences?

Ruley3 - I think we were on the same cruise last year(Magic Nov. 12). I remember your name from the FE list.

Jenny

We did go at that time last year! How are you getting there flying or driving Jenny?

We did some snorkeling when we went to the sea turtle farm. Very simple and easy for the kids and we loved the turtles so much!!!!!!

Hi there! We usually fly out of BWI, but I haven't made a final decision about that or the departure date yet...I am thinking about Wednesday or Thursday and spending some time at WDW. Getting the kids together would be great! Let me know what might work for you. Thanks!

I have been having some health issues lately and haven't been able to get on here as often as I woud like to.

If you are in the FE and have "GTY" stateroom, please PM me when you get your stateroom # just so I don't miss it if it is buried in one of the posts.

I could really use a cruise right about now . . .
