October 2 & 6, 2011 B2B Dream Cruising

[dismom73]

We will be hitting gold status after the 4 day also. You have to "complete" 5 cruises before you get any of the benefits of being gold, so we wont be able to make reservations early.

Oh well, I will still be Silver after these two cruises and one more to go. My partner will be Gold after the first cruise is complete. I'll be Gold before the end of the year! That's my goal anyway. Might have to sneak in a 3 day on a business trip to Florida.

Only one more week until I can book our first set of reservations for our B2B and then 4days later for the next round. Only booking Palos brunch & dinners and maybe parasailing on CC. Now really starting to get excited about seeing the Dream for the first time! Going to go see POTC3 tomorrow! Next up is Disneyland in 2 weeks and Club33 for our anniversary. Looking forward to seeeing the new Star Tours and the new Little Mermaid attration at DCA too. Working this Monday (gotta save for the good stuff!)

 

[dismom73]

You'll have to let me know how you like the new Star Tours...I don't think I will be able to go on it until September. I was hoping to get down to DL with the girls over the summer, but I don't know if we are going to be able to make that happen.
I'm assuming you are going to see POTC 4? We saw it last weekend, it was good. Very different from the other ones, but we stil really liked it.
We have a little over a month to make reservations, but it will get here fast because we have to figure out how to pay off the cruise....

DOH! Yes it was POTC 4 not 3! (Senior Moment) Agree, it was different from the first 3 but still fun,(did you stay for the scene after the credits? What a hoot!). I have some Hollywood movie money free tickets to both X-Men First Class and Cars 2 from buying blu-ray dvds so it should be a busy summer!

 

[dismom73]

Yes we stayed for the last scene. The only reason we knew to stay was we walked in on that scene when we got there before the movie started. Otherwise we would have missed it because that was a LONG wait.

Paid in full!!!!!​

Congrats Big red. we should be soon.!

 

[dismom73]

YAY BigRed1! I can't wait until we can say that! Well, we finally made it to page 8, took us awhile. We are headed out to go camping for the weekend, then after we get back there are only two more days of school....that's when time will start to fly by. Summer break always goes way too fast! But this year I wont mind. We are having very strange weather here in California....it's raining, and chilly! We usually don't get any rain from around April to November. It rained last weekend and it's raining this weekend(should make for an interesting camping trip) and it's in the 60's. We are usually blasting our air by now cuz it's 90 degrees outside. Well, I guess I can put the saved PG&E money towards our cruise balance.

Just finished making our reservations for Palos Dinner and Brunch plus ParaSailing at Castaway Key. I couldn't believe that several of the Cabanas were already reserved at $499 a day.

Holy Cow!! That is quite a price to pay for a cabanas. They must be pretty good for the amount of cash. I'm snorkling most of the day, so would be a waste of money for me. This time I promised myself I would actually get out of the water before they closed food service.

I'm determined to make it to Serenity Bay this time. Three cruises to CC and haven't made it there yet!

Never?!?!?!? We will have to drag you back to the ship!! We go to Serenity Bay, drag our chairs out in the water, order a bucket of hopped beverages, and enjoy the cool water! Then after lunch, we do it again!!

Maybe we can put the kids in the club for the morning or at least one of the days we're there.

I like Big Red's way of thinking.

this cruise is sneaking up fast! Seems just like yesterday we had months to go and now we are almost 3 1/2 months away! Almost time to start booking palo and excursions!

On a side note...LOVE Big Reds way of thinking for CC. Just might be doing that myself.

We are not yet - 'as I so optimistically say' - a BTB cruiser, but are there any lists I need to know about/join? We are pretty sure we are at the Radisson pre-cruise....

The representative list from The Great State of Tennessee continues to grow!! Glad y'all could join us!! Al called me yesterday all in a shape about where to stay. We are @ CIS but maybe we can sneak in and visit you @ the pool! BTW, there are no lists of any sort that I am aware of yet. Maybe we should start something!
