I emailed my AAA TA this morning. She responded that the docs would come to her and we would come in and go over everything. I don't know what she can tell me that I haven't learned from the DIS .

Anyway, our flight out of Philadelphia is 9:30 am on 11/9 and we are expected to arrive at MCO at 12:30. If everthing goes smoothly, I imagine we will be at the port by 1:30/2:00.

My doctor is so funny. He is a Disney World fanatic. He knew from last time I was in that I was doing something Disney soon. I reminded him that it was DCL. He said that we have your blood pressure under control but it is just at at enough elevation that you are advised to take a physician with you when traveling. I said at his cost. He said insurance would cover it.

So, when is everyone arriving at port? I told DH we should arrive early, and he said why? I said cuz that's what most "experts" say - more time on the boat! I'm not sure he thinks more time on the boat is really a good thing. We have drop BIL at the airport on the way. Unless we drop him 2 hours early, we'll probably get to port around 11:30.

I plan on getting to port between 12:00 and 1:00.

For those with kids and those on their first cruise I can understand wanting to arrive early and tyring to be some of the first onboard. It's fun to explore the ship for the first time, and for those with kids, most times the kids CANNOT WAIT to get into the pool, so getting aboard early is a big draw (don't forget to pack swim gear, sun block, etc, in your carry-on if you're looking to get straight to the pool).

For me, I normally board a little after the initial rush so I don't have quite so long to wait for the staterooms to open up.

Our docs came yesterday!! My AAA travel agent got them first, went over them and then sent them our way. I was never so happy to see the UPS man before.

We booked our cruise very late in September, I had to convince my husband that he needed a vacation. We will be going to Coronado Springs and then Animal Kingdom Lodge after the cruise. We are traveling with our two daughters, ages 7 and 6. They hope there are some girls their age to play with.
We are so excited it is almost here!

Welcome DORISDAN!

Did you notice they have some early MVMCP's at the MK the week after the cruise? They're alot of fun, if you haven't done one before

[belle26]

Docs came today!!!

WE're now ready to roll - 13 more days!!!

 

[JerseyBelle]

I showed up at AAA this morning because I just didn't get why everyone had their docs and we didn't. Sure enough, my agent was off for a few days and our docs were there along with our complimentary two piece luggage set that our dd has already claimed. Oh well, they are a perfect size for her

Mint Addiction,

A few posts back I suggested the idea of meeting at 3:00 pm in the Promenade Lounge on Thursday. A couple of folks seemed interested.

How does that work out for everybody that's interested?

Were in.

Again, We're in for the meet.

I picked up my LGMH at home depot yesterday! Now to figure out how to best display"them.

Wondering if I can get a door sign made in 4 days, too.

We leave Sat AM (early!!) and have to work all week (of course). Wish I was a little further along on the packing!

What is a LGHM ???? Just wondering....

I haven't seen that particular mnemonic before, but I'm guessing it stands for Lime Green Mickey Head. Home Depot has paint color samples in the shape of Mickey's head & ears. The DISboarders have "claimed" them as symbols of DISboard membership. Lots of folks create pins, tags or stateroom door magnets out of them to wear/use onboard and at Disney theme parks for identification as DISboarders. Just about anything in lime green has been used, such as ribbons, plastic wristbands, etc.
