We pretty much spend the whole day on the beach at CC, except to go to the BBQ for lunch, and Bailey likes the "dancing with characters" they have in the middle of the day. We've never done the crap, I mean crab races before...I think I want to try to do the bikes this time too.

We did the bikes for the first time on the PC cruise and really enjoyed. Interesteing to get out to the observation tower to be able to see a lot more of the island.

I was looking forward to the margarita and martini tasting but it doesn't sound like it was too good...oh well I'll probably do it anyway-what the heck! I've never had a martini and it's probably about time I try one..

The Martini tasting was wonderful. I had never had a Martini before, but decided to give it a go. We got a Classic Martini and we were asked to save half so that we could turn it into a Dirty Martini, a Pomegranate Cosmopolitan, a Sour Apple Martini and a Chocolatini. This was very interactive and both fun and educational.

Michelle I am so excited that you were able to get back on the boat with us!!! That is wonderful news. I hope we dont lose anyone else as we are a great bunch of people!!!!

We rented the bikes last Sept and it was great. Even though you rent them by the hour, they said that we could keep them as long as we wanted. We rode around the island, then to the adult beach for lunch. After a great lunch, we took them back. We are doing the bikes again on our next cruise.

We too like riding to the observation tower....but I am a nervous nellie as the girls climb up....love our photo of the girls up there with the Magic in the back ground.

The pool at GC Margarittaville doesn't look that big....I think all us Dreamers who are going will take up the whole pool...

Ok now I am off to call a friend and then to bed....had dinner and drinks....funny thing is it was at my friends house like 10 houses away but it's SOOOOOOO cold here we still drove down

Just thought some of you might be interested in this. It's a review someone wrote about the Western Carribean. I didn't read all the way through it, so I don't know if it's a good review or a bad one, but I thought I would post the link anyway.

Good morning Everyone! I hope everyone had a good day yesterday. We had Nelia's bday---officially 5!!!! One step closer to the cruise. Now Sydney just needs to turn 9 and we are almost there. Since rebooking my girls have no clue we are going again. I am not real good at keeping the cruise from them but I am trying hard. They think instead we are just going to FL to visit friends....I needed some reason as to why the luggage was getting packed. My hope is they won't know till we are all loading and headed to the port that morning! They will so excited!

Robin--ok I posted if you are lurking...new rule ....U have to post!!!

Well off to workout.....talk to u all later!

 

[disneydiva16]

Hi Michelle...I am here!!! I always get on this early I just dont always post, but I will now. See it is sooo nice knowing you are watching over the thread I gotta go get my girls and son up and ready for school. I will be back on later. See everyone then.

 

[dismom73]

Well it has happened....the prices of our cruise went up. I think it's because they sold out of Cat. 12 GTY over the weekend. I think Michelle got the last one. Last week it would have saved us $940 to go from two cat. 7's to two cat. 9's. I just checked this morning and we would only save $625 to make the switch.

Here's another link. I don't know what the DIY network is, but figured someone her probably has it and might want to watch.

Thanks Andrea---got the DVR set!! Oh and sorry me taking prolly the last Cat 12 made ur possible saving disappear. But boy am I glad I jumped on it!

Ok so I am keeping it a secret from the kids that we rebooked...Umm but yesterday I said to Nelia "U can use ur bday money to dolphin swim.." LMAO luckily she didn't even catch that. but she said sure...LOL Oh boy not sure how many slip-ups I can have before they will catch it!

So anything new? Ok here I am talking to myself....that's ok. Haha and u all thought u had peace and quiet when I was gone.. ..haha but I am back....sorry for u all!

Hi There.. If you wouldn't mind could you add my DH and I (Scott & Amy) to this cruise. We are in room # 6130 and have the late dinner seating. Thanks so much. Look foward to meeting everyone on the cruise, we are so excited.

I also noticed that when I looked at the widget that was created for this cruise it says Oct 8th-10th... I didnt know if you knew that or not Im sorry... Thanks.

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

Welcome Amy and Scott! I have added you to our web page....Unsure where u say the date is wrong? On the logo it says Oct 3-10, it's just in script so it looks like an 8. If there is somewhere else please let me know. I have made the writing larger on the logo so it should look more like a 3. Remember to print ur own logo to wear on ur lanyard to identify urself. I will have a Disney Dreamers sign at the port too so we can all chit chat before boarding if ya like. Amy if you would like u can send me a photo to add to our page too. Thanks
Are you participating in our FE or SM?
Ok where is everyone?

Welcome Amy & Scott. My DH, Mark and DD, Amaya (9) are your neighbors, we're in 6632. My MIL and her brother are in 6628. And Saturday I convinced my sister and her best friend to book and they will be across the hall in 6631. This is our first Disney cruise and I am SO excited.

Michelle - I am going to check with my sister and her friend to see if they want to participate in the FE and then I'll let you know. I've read some things on this thread and others about how the FE works but will you or someone be telling us what night to put out our gifts or is that up to us? That was the only thing I was a little unsure of.

I simply cannot wait to go! Everytime I talk to Andria I ask her 10 or 20 questions, I'm probably driving her crazy. I don't know how you all can stand the wait!

Well I messed that last post up didn't I? When I saw 6130 I was thinking 6630, my bad. I guess I'm not Scott and Amy's neighbor after all, well at least not next door. But I'm looking forward to meeting you guys anyway.

Terri

 

[ForTheLoveOfDCL]

Terri----I think we have decided that everyone can put them out when they want too....just by friday afternoon. Like I have a different gift for adults then kids,,,for example I may put the adult gift out on Sunday, the kids on tues or somethng like that. unless something changes by then or the thread grows tons I think we can all handle our own.

HI Terri,
Don't worry I think that she enjoys Disney too much to go crazy talking about it. Between you and I she must talk about Disney all day long
