Oct. 16-23, 2010 - Bring Back the Magic

[truck1]

Hi everybody!

Unfortunately, I have caught an awful cold
Now I am sitting here sniffling and feverish, and I will be off to bed in a moment even though it is only 7.30 p.m.

Just wanted to say hi to everybody again, once again sorry I am not posting as much as I used to (or as much as I want to!) but there has been so much annoying and stressful stuff going on, and now this cold isn't helping. I am confident that it will be done and I will feel great again by the time we board!

Incidentally, in one week from now we will be "hanging in the sky" (a great phrase I learned on this thread ) about halfway across the Atlantic Ocean!

Oh and one other thing, I have been following the discussion both here and on the main board concerning the Radisson shuttle ... Not sure yet, we might just take a cab to the port to avoid that stress. On the other hand, I had been looking forward to arriving on the shuttle together with some of the people we met the night before at Grills, so if we get lost at least they can show us where to go .

Oh and the last thing, just came to my mind: A few days ago I looked at the Grills online menu when someone (Ron?) kindly posted the link here - and with about half of the things on the menu, I either have not a very clear idea or even no clue at all what that is or what it tastes like! That should be fun

Okay, off to bed now with only one detour to give the cats their dinner (I miss them already!! That's the only major downside to three weeks on the Magic and at WDW: We can't bring the cats! ),

Annika

Feel better. Ditto on what Dan said. Drink plenty of fuids even if you dont feel thirsty. Feel free to ask about what you havent heard of on the menu.

Anika- feel better soon!!!!

I couldn't wait until Sunday. I got the suitcases out and packed after doing laundry!!! I am ready to go.

My mom wants me to go to Biloxi with the retirement home on Wednesday!!! She is so excited I couldn't say no. But if that bus breaks down Roger will have to come and get me!!!! She won;t go alone any more since it's hard for her to get around. Since I am not working I told her I would go the next time they went.

Good luck! Maybe you can win enough to cover your bar bill

As some of you know from previous posts, I am a Catholic priest and will be saying Mass on Sunday morning aboard the Magic. I don't have a time or place yet; I was told they would let me know closer to sail date. I will post it as soon as I know. However, they also said that they would include it in the Navigator. The time will probably be 8 or 9 o'clock Sunday morning. Any later it we would have a problem with a certain Palo private room brunch reservation. My cruise Mass policy (I have done this before) is sure to make everyone happy: no homily and no collection! All are welcome!

This is so wonderful for you to do this!! My mother-in-law was upset about missing church on Sunday, now she will be so thrilled!!!!

Thank you again!

Thanks, the bus is $5.00 and they give us 15.00 in quarters, So I will already be ahead!! I haven't been in a long time.

Sorry that you are feeling bad. The Dizzyprincess family caught a bug last week too, but everyone should be better by the time we leave next week. Get it overwith now so everyone can be healthy by the time we sail.

Hope you feel better soon

Fr. Frank???? Say it isn't so!!!

My BIL highly dislikes Pooh because he is everywhere. I'm so happy because you could find very little Pooh stuff anywhere when I was growing up. Sears had a smattering of things and that was about it.

Annika - Lots of rest and fluids! Feel better soon!

My son refused to have Pooh in Aidan's room but there is Pooh all over his room that we have converted in to a grandchildrens room. He was not happy but he does not live there anymore.

What a lovely offer Father Frank. Annika I hope you feel better soon. I probably won't get a chance to check in again because we fly to Orlando early sat morning. I am almost packed but still have some school work to finish off. I hope you all have a good week and safe travels to the Magic - look forward to seeing you onboard.

I'm guessing there is going to be PLENTY of Pooh in Aidan's room, once she gets here. Ryan will have to learn how to deal with Pooh pretty soon

How exciting! Have a safe trip and hopefully we will meet you either inside the terminal or at the 1st meet - 3 PM in the Promenade Lounge.

Leisha - you don't look anything like a banana. You look more like this

 

[disneystick]

We would be delighted to meet you both too. Where about in Scotland is Aunt Cathy from?
Wendy

My MIL had lunch today with Aunt Cathy and she is from East Wemyss/Buckhaven area. I've never heard of these places...but then I have not had the opportunity to visit Scotland..., hopefully one day.

 

[wendym]

Thank you everyone for the good wishes. East Wemyss would be about 2/3 hours from us - I have probably been there but can't remember. I can recommend Scotland to anyone but I always seem to vacation in the States!

lol, First born of the BIL who hates Pooh, loved Pooh. I like to thinkit's because he asociated Pooh with Aunt CArrie.

See! They're trying to strangle that poor child!

Bad, Kathy! Bad, bad, Kathy!

Joanne - Have fun and win lots!

Wendy - Safe travels!

Dizzyland Princess - Hope all the family is well soon!

OMG, there was a mix up with the oprdering of Passporters DCL 2010. SO, we got it electronically and have 2009 hard copy. Just realized I can put the electronic copy on my nook! Happy day!!!! I can bring the most up to date with me and I have one less book to pack!
