October 20th 2007 Western Magic Part 4

[Timon]

So another workout under my belt! I've changed it up a bit so hopefully I will finally see some good results soon! And since we leave for Orlando EXACTLY 3 months from today, I have promised myself to do five workouts EVERY week, NO EXCUSES!

How's everyone else doing??? I think there's only 4 of us who weighed in last Friday...hopefully everyone is just too busy to get to the KK site.

We miss you Linda and Karen! Hopefully everything ok with you both!

And Chris, we miss you too!

 

[Timon]

Ok, no one here to keep me company...I might actually get to bed at a decent hour not that I will sleep but at least I'm horizontal


Goodnight/Good Morning to everyone!

There will still be room =) The first cruise we went on I didn't register until the day of the ship and my kids both got in just fine.

The tenders run all day from 7:30am till 4pm. If you are NOT with a DCL excursion, and need to tender before 11:15am, you will need to get your tender tickets at the Buena Vista Theatre I think when you are ready to go ashore. On the way back, you just line up at the dock and wait for the next tender as they go back and forth all day long.



If you are doing the Dolphins, you have no choice, you HAVE to get tickets for Chankanaab as it is INSIDE the park. I booked ours before they raised their prices and I got a special deal for entry passes, so it probably works out the same with the free park special. We will be spending a few hours in the park before the dolphin encounter but not much as the sun is very hot and strong there and I am not a "sun" girl. I really don't like Cozumel much, it's unbelievably hot (I hate the heat, so I am a bit of a wuss) and it's a little scary looking (bad heebie jeebies ) but because everyone wants to do the dolphins then that's where I go! I would rather stay on the ship personally



Yes, some excursions are very similar in pricing, some are just plain ridiculous. For your Pirate Encounter, the website does say that they have special schedules for cruise ship passengers, you just have to email them.

For us, the Stingray Tour with Capt Marvin is $35, $45 with DCL (there's 8 of us total, Kira is free) and I don't like the times they offer, I don't want to go too early or too late, so for us, Capt Marvins works better.

Like I said, it's a personal decision, you really need to figure out what works best for your family. I personally HATE being herded around with 100 other people for an excursion, so I stay away from the DCL excursions and of course I can't book with DCL if we want Kira with us.

I booked all of our stuff online.

Thank you Cass! I appreciate all the info!

Yes, our anniversary is in October, the 17th actually. It will be 9 years! We got married in Las Vegas (not by Elvis ) We will be in WDW for our actual anniversary, hoping to meet up with Brenda and Jason as the 17th is also Brenda's birthday!!!

I have had dail up from day one and rationalized why it was better cost wize. We had the free version until about 2 years ago. Yuck. Now it is even harder to deal with this because I know it is changing soon, so I keep yelling at the pages to load.

Well I was off on the day sorry. Where in Vegas? I told Scott several times during the few months before that we should go there but he kept insisting on a big wedding for me.

I am confussed I thought Brenda and Jason are not going on the cruise. How did I get this mixed up? And is her b-day the 17th also?

I am a first time cruiser on this line also. My TA told me yesterday that the magic date is Aug. 6th and 12:00 am central time. I am hoping she is right. I don't have much faith in her. I might actually call Dis to confirm that one.

UK friends,

I just heard on the radio that they are predicting a chance of frost next week in central England!! Could that be possible?--absolutely crazy!!

Yes, they did announce that there might a chance of a cold snap.

I am confussed I thought Brenda and Jason are not going on the cruise. How did I get this mixed up? And is her b-day the 17th also?

She had to cancel the cruise, but not the WDW trip.

Good morning everyone,
Been gone for a few days, had 7- 8 yr olds over Saturday to celebrate Mackenzie's b-day late, baseball game on Sunday and yesterday a day of fun at Noah's Ark. Too busy at work to catch up, maybe have time tonight. Hope everyone is doing well.

One the top part of the page on the left is a link that says user CP. If you click on that it will have all the threads you are active on. It is great way to find us.

Yeaaaah! That was most helpful. I will get this all figured out soon enough I am sure. I need to go back now and find the post that was talking about the excursions from the beginning... all I remember is key lime pie on a stick for some odd reason. hahahahhaha Then somewhere I read about a chocolate buffet... I think they created that just for me!!!!

When I joined this board back in early April - there was about 300 pages of posts - now we are closing in on 1000 pages. Dont even think about trying to read all of them - some days we add almost 8-10 pages. Just start reading going forward and ask questions - everyone on this group is very helpful and very nice. People will be happy to answer any cruise (on non-cruise) related questions.

Are you guys going to WDW before or after the cruise?

Jessalynn

No we aren't able to do Disney before or after this time. We are taking all the kids out of school, 2 are in college, so just that week is all we can manage.

I am schedualed to have cable internet installed on Wednesday. Everyone keep you fingers crossed that it actually happens.

Jeff
I got a good deal with it also. I am getting free installation, line from outside the house in, and computer installation. We are buying the modem, and we are doing teh $29.95 service.

Now I have 6 pages to catch up on. Check back in soon.

Good luck with your installation! Hope everything is faster for you!
