November 3, 2007 - Western on the Magic

[SamIAm21]

I'm lost....who is Margaret?

Margaret Kerry, the original model for Tinker Bell, was supposed to be on the 11/3/07 sailing of the Disney Magic. It was a big draw for all those big Tink fans out there, like me. I would have love to have met her, but she's canceled her sailing.

For those of you that have cruised before....I am trying to figure out when to plan certain excursions, Palo meals, etc. Do you think that the formal nights and Pirate night will be on the same nights they have been on in the past. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Last year they were the same night as the year before and it seemed as if they kept everything the same in trip reports I've read. Formal is always Monday (sea day) and Thursay (the other sea day) Captains Gala, Semi Formal. They do Palo bunch on Sunday (limited seating times due to arrival in Key West), Monday and Thursday. I remember reading that Pirate Night needs to be on Cozumel night (Wednesday) due to restrictions but I know they have switched the night before but it's rare.

Thanks Sweetspot, appreciate the help. Now I can plan my Palo dinner and such.

I'm sad about Tinker Bell.

I'm sad about Tinker Bell.

Me, too. Tink (not Margaret) and I were born in the same year! I have a brand new, tags still on, embroidered tee shirt and lime green permanent marker, already packed! I was going to see if Margaret could sign my sleeve. I'm a little sad, too.

 

[iwannabeminnie]

Aw, man. Now I'm disappointed for you as well as for myself! That would have been so awesome!

DVC from NJ...

got your PM but I keep getting an error stating my postcount is too low and couldn't PM you back.

If you could send me a PM with your email, I can have my DS(9) email DS. By the way we are in Turnersville (Washington Township) we're pretty close!!
Thanks,
Cindy

Cin929, did you get my latest PM?

I have a question for anyone that has applied for and received your passports!

How long did it take from the time you applied to the time you received them? We applied July 9th ( I Know it's late but to get everyone together at the same time) and now I am kicking myself in the butt for not paying the fee to expedite.

So anyone? Am I out of luck?

We are also going on 11/3 magic cruise--we applied for our passports on 6/6 and we were told it should not be a problem. I hope they were right.

 

[iwannabeminnie]

We applied on 5/22, just before you did. When they get here I'll be sure to let you know!

Our DD (14) has posted on the DCLKids Yahoo Group, but most of the kids posting there so far are younger... There must be some teens going on this cruise!

If you have a teen, point them to the Yahoo Group.

For those of you who are going to do this in Key West , are you going with Disney or doing this on your own?

I'm thinking on our own...

Welcome to our cruise meet thread!!!

Thanks!

We were thinking about the nature museum and butterfly conservatory too. We'll probably do it on our own as well. We are also doing Cozumel on our own, just grabbing a cab in Cozumel to Chankanaab. It costs about $10 for a taxi and $16-ish to get into the park.

 

[iwannabeminnie]

We are doing Key West on our own, the semi-sub at Grand Cayman, and the Jeep Tour at Cozumel. I think. It depends on what kind of information I get from the Travel Agent this week.
