October 20th 2007 Western Magic Part 4

[JLDSMD]

Here's a question, how many of you plan on using the Secret Deck 7 sun deck?

If so, will it be a daily thing for you?

How long do you plan on staying there?

What time of day do you plan on using it?

Going to look at the menus on Castaway Club and think of what I want for dinner. I think I wrote down once what I was planning on getting. Some nights I will be trying new things, but on a couple, there are some things I just have to have, like the Duck in Lumieres, the Lobster on Captain's Gala night.

Anyone else who has been on before have any favorites that they have to have?

Anyone anal and won't try anything different?

Who's definitely going to do different choices this cruise?

O.K., most of us are less than 3 weeks away from online bookings (Chris is this Saturday).

What are your priority items to book (Palo, a certain excursion, etc)?

What Palo meals are you going for? Which day if brunch? Which night if dinner?

Who plans on re-booking another cruise at the first opportunity?

Who's waiting until near the end?

Who never wants to go on another Disney cruise?

Who's sick of me asking all these questions?

Does anyone have any favorite shows they HAVE to see on board?

Anyone planning on skipping any shows?

What theme nights will you be attending in the night clubs?

Anyone like going to Sessions (the jazz bar)?

Who's up for an Adult DIS Meet in one of the clubs (I know we already have the wine tasting/DIS meet)?

I thought of a couple more questions:

What is our favorite restaurant menu (AP, PC, or L when you are on the rotational menu)?

If this is your first time, which one are you looking forward to?

Which is your favorite Theme night (Master Chef, Pirate, Captain's Gala, or Till We Meet Again)?

Again, for first timers, which one are you looking forward to?

Seriously, I had some good discussion topics in my rant on Page 899 (spilling onto page 900). We've somewhat slowed down. Let's use these to get some discussion going here.

Plus, it is cruise related.

My priority is getting the pirate excursion. It sounds like it will be popular.

We are planning on going to Palos. Not sure what night.

Who plans on re-booking another cruise at the first opportunity?

Who's waiting until near the end?

We are going to rebook onboard. What is the advantage of waiting til the end of the cruise?
I think anyone who wouldn't want to do another Disney cruise is nuts!!!!!
I love the questions!!!!!

 

[goofyfreak]

Does anyone have any favorite shows they HAVE to see on board?

Anyone planning on skipping any shows?

We love Disney Dreams and Twiced Charmed and the Golden Mickeys.
We don't skip any shows.

 

[JLDSMD]

You & Nancy are the King & Queen of F.O.'s

Excuse me!!!!!

3 in a row. Does that not count for anything?

 

[goofyfreak]

What theme nights will you be attending in the night clubs?

Anyone like going to Sessions (the jazz bar)?

Who's up for an Adult DIS Meet in one of the clubs (I know we already have
the wine tasting/DIS meet)?

We like to watch the comedians adult shows. We also had fun at 70s night!!!!

I'm not a big fan of Sessions.
I will attend all DIS meets!!!!! If you guys won't run away from one of the VD girls.

No advantage at all of waiting until the end. If anything it is a disadvantage - longer wait/line to see the agent.

If you know you want to go again, book early. Have your dates in mind and if they are not out yet (which ours probably won't be), book a dummy date just to get the ressie. As soon as the dates come out, switch the first day.

We love animators palate!!!!!!!!!!!
Pirate night of course!!!!!!

We are planning on going to Palos. Not sure what night.

We're going for the Pirate Excursion too.

We are NOT doing Palo for dinner, but if we were, we'd do Tuesday night which is the Master Chef menu. It is also the day we are on Grand Cayman.

We will be doing brunch. If they are offering it, we will be going for 10:30 on Sunday. If we somehow get stuck with APL rotation, Suz says we'll just skip the character breakfast.

 

[Scouter]

Sure, now that I get a moment to play, no one wants to play with me.

Guess I'll just play by ("with" for you sick-o's) myself.

grand marnier souffle!

Anyone anal and won't try anything different?

That could be me, not very daring...
no seafood, no mushrooms...
but anything chocolate is ok!

Who's definitely going to do different choices this cruise?

Bob will.... he loves almost any food and is not afraid to try anything new....
I just won't kiss him after he eats yucky stuff

Well then I will knock you down to be first in line to rebook. We want to do a double dip in 2009. Harrison will be 4 then and a perfect age for his first cruise.

 

[JLDSMD]

We love Disney Dreams and Twiced Charmed and the Golden Mickeys.
We don't skip any shows.

We didn't get into Twiced Charmed (only Suz and I went to that one).

We haven't done the shows since our first cruise and it was just before DS was turning 5. Now that he will be over 7 1/2 y.o., I want to go again. He is really into music/musicals now - ever since he started playing the piano.

Still not sure if we'll hit TC.

 

[JLDSMD]

Good afternoon Rose.

Glad you could join us.

 

[MinnMick01]

i think thats code for my food is touching

Scott here, Whats wrong with not having your food touch? They all have their own little place on the plate, and they are happy that way.

 

[JLDSMD]

Hi Scott.

 

[oybolshoi]

Even though we're no longer cruising, Jay and I love Sessions - it's so quiet and relaxing back there before dinner. We would go and listen to the piano player and have a martini - the bartender always gave us little plates of yummies to nibble on, too.

We never stay if anyone is smoking, though. It's too small back there to be able to breathe comfortably if someone starts smoking.

 

[JLDSMD]

FO #4 in a row!!!

edited because Brenda screwed up my streak.

Now I guess I'll just have to streak around decks 4, 9 and 10 instead.

 

[goofyfreak]

We're going for the Pirate Excursion too.

We are NOT doing Palo for dinner, but if we were, we'd do Tuesday night which is the Master Chef menu. It is also the day we are on Grand Cayman.

How do you know when your character breakfast is? I think ours has always been of Thur. I think we have always had PAL rotation or PLA. I know it is Parrot Cay first.

I totally agree. Let's keep the food happy!!!!
