October 13th, 2007~"Cruise-A-Palooza"

[jen-n-greg]

I just called and found out what's playing on the ship for OUR cruise!!!

Wild Hogs
Meet The Robinsons
Bridge to Terebitha
Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End
Invincible
The Game Plan
Underdog
Ratattoulie

I know there's a few I haven't seen and am looking forward to seeing. Only six more days - or "this time next week!" Looking forward to seeing everyone. BTW - what color beads are we wearing? Green?

Cheers!
Brent

Cool! Thanks for finding that out I was going to do that -- but completely forgot. My kids have been wanting to see The Game Plan but I had a feeling it would be on the ship so I put it off. We haven't seen Underdog yet either, well DS has, so that's cool. As for beads, I bought green. I finally started to pack yesterday, and after my sons soccer game today, I'm going to go do some more shopping and packing -- we leave on Wednesday -- time is flying by now

Hey!
It's a Hanna Montana 9th Birthday Party today for DD. She is so excited. She was up, dressed,and with bed and room cleaned by 7:30!! We have a big 33ft blow up obstucle course (Pumping Up the Party!). We are also doing a Miley to Hanna dress up relay race complete with the Hanna wig. So after today I will be in full CRUISE MODE!!

Bev I'm wearing something very simular for Pirate night (black capris, scarf, white blouse, big gold hoops). Now for DH we went to Good Will and found a pair of dark gray pants. Then DD and I, while he was wearing them, cut them up to knee-ish level all raggy like. I did something simular to a black tshirt for him. He'll have an eye patch, scarf for his head, and and one for his waist.

Thanks for the tip on calling my credit card company to let them know of our travel plans. I've never done that before! Also making copies of passports etc.

Have a great weekend. In Baltimore it's going to 87!

Tracy ~ I'm so sorry to read about your FIL. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family.

margaritaqueen ~ I believe you can wear jeans. My DH has a pirate t-shirt and he plans on wearing it with jeans (no way would he wear pirate pants).

ONE MORE WEEK!

 

[APOOHFN]

Ok, just getting a little ahead of myself but is anyone planning on writing and posting a trip report on the disboard?

I can't write worth squat but would love to read someone's report(s) when we all return!

I know when researching, I love looking at people's pics of the food and staterooms so I do plan on posting pics.

Safe travels everyone!!

Alright. I'm working on these Bahama forms. Ugh. In section 2 it asks for the travel agency and the city of travel agency. Since we used AAA to book our DCL trip do we use them? Or do we just use DCL? And, if we just use DCL, what is the city? And, I guess we don't need to fill out the intended stay part? or do we just put 1 day and not check anything else? and, last but not least, do we check vacation on the trip purpose or leave that blank? I hate forms. Ugh. Any help would be great. Thanks. Kristi

I talked to Cynthia at the Disney Cruise Line, because like ya'll I had questions on these form too. This is what she told me, for the travel agency you can put "Disney Cruise Line" - city of travel agency use "Celebration" that is where their office is located. Anything that does not pertain to us just leave it blank, and it is ok to abbreviate. Yes check vacation for trip purpose. Any other questions you might have I'll try to help you if I can.

As far as weather down here in Florida, yep I live here , most days will be partly cloudy with a 30% chance of rain. We are out of our rainy season now. But in sunny Florida it can rain most anytime. We live just outside of the Tampa Bay area near the gulf side of the coast.
Why oh why don't my jumpy up & down thingy, jump up & down.

 

[MinnesotaMouseketeers]

How excited is everyone?

Less than a week to go. We started getting things together that we need for the trip. Travelers checks, passports, and a few travel sized items from Target.

Happy packing

Hey all! Hope your weekend is great! Thanks David for that helpful info. I'm done with the forms now! YEAAAAA! To those of you asking about beads, my DH, DD and I will be wearing more than one strand of beads each. I think we each have a green, gold, purple and an extra of one of those colors to wear. Our DD picked out which ones we should wear. Sooo, if you look for the gaudy (sp?) "decorated" family that'll probably be us. HEEE HEEE Only 7 more days! YES! I'm so excited. Got my hair done and my nails done and will finish up a few things early this week and start to pack and I'll be ready to go. Talk to ya soon! Kristi

 

[goofy12]

OK, Its Saturday night. This morning started with the Disney DVD in bed with coffee. The girls all got there nails and toes done today. Spent the rest of the day packing...4hours. Reviewing all the latest post and laughing about how unprepared we are. My wife and I are hoping this crazy idea is fun for everyone, anticipating meeting all our new internet friends. Hoping all of you enjoy this as much as the anticipation weve all created! Sweet dreams and happy memories everyone! See you soon!

 

[Magic3forme]

Double thanks for posting the movies!! I'm bringing some boxes of movie candy as surprises for DH & DS for our movies. Actually, going to buy some more today since there's a handful of movie's we'd now like to see

Just had to chime in and wish my lovely wife a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! (I get brownie points for doing this) She turned 43 at 8:01 this morning She let me know the time, cause I woke her up around 6:30 and she informed me it WAS NOT UNTIL 8:01. I don't know if it's the age or the fact she was up late helping her brother move.

OK, back to our regular schedule programming! How is everyone's weekend going, everyone football or baseball team win? Mine did, ROLL TIDE ROLL, they tried to lose it late, but they held on for the win.

This is the week! We leave Friday for a one night stay a Disney's All Star Music and then it's off to see the MOUSE! OK, I know we will see Mickey at the hotel, but we are excited about seeing the CAPT'N MICKEY MOUSE.

OK, I've got to go cut the grass The backyard is so high, we can not find our dogs It would not be bad if they were small dogs, but one is a German Shepard (named Disney), one is a black Lab/golden retriever mix (Beauty) and the other is Siberien Husky (Mia). so until next time....

Have a great day...

 

[APOOHFN]

Hi everyone ~

In the last part of section 1, it asks for Date of Arrival & "City where you boarded this plane/boat"...

What did y'all put??


and HAPPY BIRTHDAY to kborn's DW!!!

Tracy,

We are sorry to hear about your FIL, our thoughts and prayers are with you.

We have started packing. DD (3) is dressing her baby for the trip as I type. DS is so excited he can't contain himself and DH and I are frantically trying to finish the last details. Realized DS's black dress shoes are too small so I have to run out and get a new pair. Having a hard time convincing DH to get into the pirate night spirit, so he will probably end up in jeans. May wear and eye patch. The kids have had their outfits ready for weeks.

We leave Wed morning, a little concerned about the weather in Orlando. We are planning to go to Epcot on Thursday and the Space Center on Friday.

Oh and the beads are multi colored.

Have a good night,

.
Mila

 

[dobelover]

Safe travels to everyone. We leave tomorrow morning for WDW. See you on the Magic.

 

[kpflillirpf]

May all of you who are traveling early and doing the WDW thing before the cruise, have save travels and have a blast (no matter what the weather). We'll see you on board! And, a Happy Birthday to Kborn's DW! Kristi

 

[SNicksed]

Safe trip, Sue and to everyone else leaving. Only 4 more working days for me. Cannot wait! Weather looks great so far for the weekend.

 

[d'Isigny]

Tracy...so sorry to hear your news...our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time - our best.

Hey to all...(all says hey)

We got to our time share very late last night...and thought we'd have a slow day....NOT!!! We were at Animal Kingdom for rope drop...then closed MGM. We did not really race through either park...jus putzed and enjoyed some family time doing our favorites of both locations. We did not think the crowds were too bad. Lines were IMHO short. Most of the main rides were 20 to 40 minutes...some others were 10-15...not too bad. We did ride Rockin Rollar Coaster with a 55 minute wait - WELL WORTH IT!! Man...am I luckey or what...my girls are coaster junkies - YEAH!!!

Guess you could say...we are pretty tired and about to turn in...but I needed to check in and offer a weather report. For us...the temp was about the same...the humidity is what was new to us. Today, was in the upper 80's with a good mix of humidity. We did have a short storm - but it cleared fairly quickly after dropping a good amount of rain.

We missed the entire Diamondbacks win and celebration of winning the NLDS series. Looks like I'll be spending some time in the Sports clubs on the ship for Game 3 and beyond. I am sooooo excited on how well they've done this year...Anybody - Anytime!!!

That's it for now...light are going out...and we are not too far behind. Until tomorrow evening. K

Why oh why don't my jumpy up & down thingy, jump up & down.

Hey David...I think...but am not sure...your 'thingy' needs to have the final 'img' capitalized - if that's not it...try a post on the Technical Support board - they have been very helpful with me...and...very patient.

 

[SNicksed]

Hey, Kevin! Thanks for checking in. Sounds like a typical Florida afternoon. You opened one park and closed another? LOL I bet you are tired out.

Please keep that weather nice for us. We'll see you soon.

Steve
