Hello everyone! Just a quick weather report for all of you traveling down here to sunny florida. It's freezing!!!!! For the next few days it's supposed to be in the 40's in the morning. I'm hoping this unseasonably chilly weather is gone soon, we don't have any warm clothes yet! I was waiting til after vacation to dig out the long sleeves! Now, it's one more thing I have to do.......

OMG, send that cold weather away! We were just saying we can't wait to head south! . According to our weather man, who I don't always trust, we could wake up to a wet snow! I know you can also have cool weather in Florida, but the last two years we have spent our anniversary at WDW which is December 10 and we were swimming and it was very warm. I was hoping November would be just as warm or a litter more so! I know, be prepared...so much for packing light! ...there's my excuse...like I needed one!

I love those signs! They are just great! I think we are going to have a very well decorated cruise and I think Deck 6 has a lot of DisBoard members!

Went shopping with no plans to buy anything and dh just happen to pick out a dress for me so now I have a different dress for formal night, but I have to get it altered. Have an appointment for 10:30 Friday morning. I bet she has it done by Friday evening. Why is it when you are not looking for something that is when you find things? If I were still looking, I would never have found anything!

Everybody have fun packing

Snow it is to early for that. I feel bad for you!

Should not have talked to soon. We had snow for about 4 hours in this area. Big flakes. Bigger than I have every seen in my life. Didn't stick, but it could have a few more degrees lower. I don't think it got out of the 40's. Suppose to be 66 on Friday for Halloween.

I have a few Veteran's Day signs if anyone is interested and I will be glad to personalize them with names or cabin numbers:

Signs are great. I love the one that Says Home of the Free Because of the Brave! That is so true.

It was a balmy 43 degrees here in Tampa this morning. My kids were acting like they were freezing to death on the bus stop this morning!!! This is why we moved out of NJ in the first place!!! Good news though, it's supposed to be back to the 70's by Halloween. So everyone anticipating the warm Florida weather should have it!!!

Glad to hear warm weather returning to Florida! . It is suppose to warm up here too.

I am going to try to send you the sign I made for the last night. I hope it comes out okay.


I think it worked. Maybe I can try to scan another one.

Hello Everyone! This is my first post! I know I am a little slow on the whole thing. I should have been talking sooner. But better late than never!

We are traveling with the Morgan4 on this cruise. We are all excited!
DH is counting down the days with DD(11) and they keep me(DW) and DS(13) posted on how many days until we leave.

DS and DD are excited to be missing school for this trip!

We are looking forward to meeting everyone!

Welcome DrinaBanina you can meet us all around 3PM on the Promonade deck on Saturday 8 Nov. We are all going to meet there to match faces with names. You will have a great time. This is my third cruise and the second with Disney. It will be an experience you won't forget.

Thank you SO much! I'm looking forward to it! I will definitely try to get there at that time. Then again I may end up seriously lost on my way there. By the time I find my way, everyone will have left. Hahahaha!

to all the newbies. I have been away for a few day dealing with DHL as of 2 days ago I still had not gotten our travel docs. Called our travel agent and she said they were sent out on the 17th. I have been on the phone for 2 FULL days and finally I got them today. YEAH. Now I'm doing last minute stuff. Still don't have any door signs, but I'm not worried. I can't wait to leave. This cruise we are just going to enjoy everything the ship has to offer. On our last cruise we did so much off the boat and really only played bingo and went to shows. I feel that in a week I didn't see much of the beautiful ship. I hope this time is different. Can't wait to meet all of you and party.

Thank you Kate for all your hard work. You did such a wonderful job.

 

[jumbo29]

Yeah! Doing the happy dance along with everyone else!!
I am sooooo ready for this cruise! We Floridians have been suffering along with the rest of our northern friends freezing our little bippys off! (not sure what that means but it sounded good!) I had to blanket my horse last night! Poor guy, didn't even get his winter coat yet!

The good news: it's warming up by the weekend back to 80 degrees! Yeah!! Anyway...let the countdown begin!

Hi Everyone- We are leaving on Fri. to drive to Disney World. Kids are bouncing off the walls with excitement as am I. We look forward to meeting everyone. May not get a chance to post tomorrow night so I will be out of the loop until we board the ship. Everyone have a safe trip to the ship. Bye for now. Bo, Bob, James & Megan

 

[MegaMouseHouse]

Have a safe drive and I look forward to meeting you and everyone in just over a week!!!!!

On another note I have finished the darn fish extender and as soon as I finish the fight with the camera and downloading I will show it off here. Can't believe I actually did it without sewing a single stick. Got to love sticky hem stuff and self stick felt.

Mimi'sgirl, drive safely and have a great time. The weather should cooperate with you now! Still chilly in FL but nothing the northerners can't handle!!

Megamousehouse glad you finished your FE. Got mine in the mail yesterday. It is cute, although a bit small. That is fine. it is cute!

born2cruise. so glad you got your paperwork. What a stressor!

Wendy are you staying with Dee and the group the night before? what time do you plan to get into port?

I still haven't even started packing. I need to sit down and make a list. I know there was one posted on here for Morgan4 soio I will take a look back and see if I can find it. TTFN

Hey Dis party planners... first timer confusion here

Is the current plan is to have a November 8th Dis meet/greet at 3pm on the promenade deck (4th level) or promenade lounge (3rd level)?

If it's the promenade deck, where are we going to meet? Port or Starboard?

Promenade Lounge, according to the update on page 1.
