Hey everyone! Did you have a good weekend? Seems like I am so dang busy lately on the weekends. It was 72 here today!!! 3 weeks ago we had 30 inches of snow, now we have tornado warnings in the southern metro area. Gotta love Minnesota weather.

A good DIS friend of mine has now booked this cruise with us, so hopefully she'll post here soon. Come on Jenn!!! She booked with the same travel agent Kritter and I are booked with, to get on the great group deal she is getting for us. Feel free to PM me anyone if you want to her info to contact her to see what she can do for you as far as rates and on board credits. The group deal includes a gift and a cocktail reception or Palo brunch ( I vote for brunch!!!).

We only have a year and a half to wait now, I think my daughter is going to explode before then from anticipation and excitement!

We don't have Jet Blue or Allegiant up here. The closest thing to a budget airline that we get is Air Tran.

Hi everyone,

We had a great busy weekend. DH has been busy changing light fixtures etc... Around the house.. He is wipped out and ready to return to work..

Erika, Looks like my friend Heather is going to book with our TA too.. She just got a price and is going to talk to her DH.She gave her a great rate.

Like I mentioned before if anyone would like to talk to her she is great.. Erika just mentioned it above. Feel free to Pm us and we can forward you her information.. She gave a great onboard credit. The more that book for this cruise the lower our price will go as she puts it under the "group rate"
Can not post her information her as I don't think it is allowed on the boards..
As Erika said she told us we can get free gifts and a cocktail reception or a Palo brunch.. Either is a great perk...


Hope everyone is well.. I was able to book soem character dining this weekend for our WDW trip.. The kids are excited...

Hey Everyone!!

I am Erika's friend..and we have booked our cruise. It will be me, my dh , dd and ds. My daughter will be 10 and my son will be 7 when we cruise.

We are really excited about going. This will be our second cruise on DCL. We did a 4 day Wonder when my son turned 5. It was wonderful.

Yay, you're here!!!! We can't wait to be able to spend a whole week with you! It should be less exhausting than our 12 hour marathon last year at MK/Epcot!

Welcome Jennifer and family!!!!!!!!!!!

How early will you guys book a room for the night before the cruise, if you need one? I was reading another thread where some hotels were already booked up for Feb. 2008 cruisers?!?! I can plan a cruise well in advance, but I'm not sure I can plan a hotel room that far out, if it's not at WDW LOL.

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Welcome to Jennifer and Family!!

As for booking a room, I can't remember how far out we booked our room at Ron Jon's. It was just an efficiency, but it worked for just the one night. We have talked about how we are going to do the next cruise. I may have already said this here, not sure.....IF <---notice BIG IF....Allegiant Air is still flying out of Huntington, WV with a direct flight to Sanford and IF they still fly on Thurs and Sunday, then we'll fly out Thursday night, go to WDW, stay for 2 nights and go to the port on Saturday morning. Upon return of the cruise, we'll head to WDW again and spend Saturday night there, fly out Sunday. We'll take advantage of being at WDW and may go to 2 parks on that Friday and Saturday. The bummer is that Magical Express doesn't go to Sanford, so we will have to get a rental, then return it at port and pick one up again. Which actually we did in October because it was cheaper for our family, it's just not as convenient.

The weather here has been wonderful!! We've been outside nearly all evening enjoying the weather and visiting with the neighbor's again! I think we're all done hibernating!

I better get busy! I have Andrew (the baby I care for) down for a nap, so I need to take advantage of that time! Have a MAGICal day!!!

Hello everyone!! We've had such BEAUTIFUL weather, we have spent nearly every evening outside! I even cut grass on Tuesday night, since it was going to rain on Wednesday. We cut grass here from Easter to Thanksgiving, but sometimes Christmas! Growing up in Cleveland, OH, we usually cut from Memorial Day to Halloween. This season is too long! LOL BTW, I hate, hate, hate, hate to cut grass!! BUT Steve's schedule is so long, that I am resigned to having to do it! There will be some weeks I'll have to mow twice, and then I cuss the whole time I'm out there! LOL Bad, I know.....

Nothing exciting to report from us! Just waiting for May 31st to arrive! Have any of you ate at Sci-Fi?? We have never ate there, because of reviews, but since we have the dining plan, we thought we would give it a try on one of our MGM nights. I have read such mixed reviews on it. What say you??

Steve will be pulling in shortly! Have a MAGICal night and a WONDERful weekend!

 

[elgerber]

We ate at the Sci Fi last year for lunch. Honestly I can't even remember what I ate. I'll have to go look at Debs site. It was ok. Not bad, not great, but we loved the atmosphere so it was totally worth it. One thing I remember, it was freezing cold in there!!!!!!!!!!!! We were wearing tank tops and it was very very cold.

I remember now, I just had a burger, it was pretty good.

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Thanks Erika, from what I have read, that is all you should get there....Burgers and MilkShakes...the "meals" aren't that great.

Have to meet Colton's Bus! Have a good night!

 

[kritter]

I have never eaten at SCI-FI..

Sounds yummy!!!
