Well let us add another Wisconsin family. We are a family of 11 that will be going on the cruise. 8 have been on the cruise, and 3 have not. The new cruisers are my wife, 26, my daughter, 6, and myself 27. We are from the menomonee Falls area. All of the other members of my family are from Pewaukee and Milwaukee. Some of us are flying in on Wednesday and others on Saturday. Can not wait to meet everyone, and have a few beverages.

Hi Chris! I noticed we are your first post! There is lots of great information to be found by hanging out on these boards. Welcome to the group!

When I booked this cruise I didn't realize this was an all Wisconsin cruise. We should have booked together and get a group rate.

Our crew will be myself, DW, DS9, DS8, and DD3. This will be our second DCL cruise after just coming off the 10/26/06 3-day Wonder. We loved it and we are looking forward to the 7-day. See you all there.

Wow what a load of messages to read !!


to Chris and family !


Abby, Elouise had her ears pierced at 8 months old. I had mine done as a baby and it just seemed OK to do. Shes fine with earrings, and we are fortunate she has never had any infections or anything. She only ever wears small gold or diamond studs. ( Though for Christmas I did buy some small white gold and diamond Mickey shape stud earrings)

Heather we saw some teens at BBB being made up they were having sooooo much fun. It was nice for us to watch them. At the end of their make over I offered to take a group photo of them all, and they even got Elouise in the middle of the group, for the picture ! ? They wore their sashes with pride !

Judy, Elouise will be 5 by the cruise, so she will be in the same club as your son before our last cruise she was e mailing 2 girls ( Kylie and Nicole, who were 4 and 6.) It was fun for them, great for helping her type and spell! also they loved sharing photos of them doing activities at home. It made it so much more fun for them, and they were " best mates" seconds from actually meeting They all joined the club together.

Brenda, you cant feel out of place honey !!!! and if you do, we will "adopt" you and Jay, and teach you to speak with an English accent !!!

Awwww, Linda, thanks!!

Actually it's funny that you said that...someone reading my food review thread actually asked me if I was British.

As for Nancy and her family...like Jo I, am not at liberty to share the details but she and the family are hanging tough and I know that they really appreciate everyone's prayers and good thoughts.

Welcome all5ofus! And yes, this is turning into a Wisconsin(or should I say Midwest)/UK cruise. Come on Ohio!!!

I was going to post last week about how the UK was taking over the board, they had 4 at the time. Good thing I didn't because WI is now up to 5. We're winning the race. Ohio is in 3rd with 2.

Now if we look at the gender gap, well, lets just say guys, watch what you say, we are heavily out numbered. Without going through all 70+ pages, I think there are only about 5 men total here. The women are at least twice as many.

Does anyone have a running list going? I know Cass' is based on info that is sent to her, not on who has posted here. Just curious.

Almost at the end of page 1.

Just bumping us up.

Hi everyone & welcome fellow Wisconsinite Chris and Family. We will be a total of 7 for this cruise. The second DCL for the family, but my daughter's best friend is coming and she has never been anywhere.

The trip became real today because I booked my 2 bdr lock-off at the BCV for the 18th & 19th of October. We decided to stay at WDW and have a limo take us over on Saturday. I figured that I already paid more my DVC why pay for a hotel near the port when a Limo can get us there too. I hope to change to the Villas at Wilderness at the 7 month window to make MNSSHP easier to get to on the 18th. We will fly in the morning of the 18th and out the evening of the 28th. I hope to find a good rate on either Midwest or Airtran. Last June we got airtran for 64 each way, so of course we had to do a quick WDW trip.

We will be celebrating my mom's 70th Bday while cruising, this is what she wanted to do for her bday. My Brother's and sister think we are nuts for our Disney Love Affair. They just don't understand and I am sick of explaining, their loss they will miss a great cruise.

Have a good night,
Judy

Just wanted to stop in to welcome all the newcomers and to thank you all for the prayers and the special thoughts for my family. It feels so good to have so many friends, both old and new that are pulling for us. It is much appreciated.

Thank you also for the special PM's and even some laughs. I am convinced that this cruise will have the greatest bunch of DISers ever!!!

Take care everyone and have a Blessed Thanksgiving.

Nancy

Jeff, I believe that once we get the Yahoo Site up and running there is a section where we will all post our cruising info. I tried to keep up on our count but lost track.

Until then how about if we just start one here?? Just "quote" and add your name to this list everyone....

I'll start,

Jeff and Suz (JLDSMD) Hartland, Wisconsin
Chuck and Nancy (cntkg1) Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin

Continue on folks!!

Nancy, so lovely to hear from you. Glad our best wishes are helping you. A big to you and Chuck.


I agree I think this cruise is going to have a huge amount of DISers !! so we should be able to have lots of fun!

D'OH! Sometimes I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Brenda (and everyone else who will be adding on),

If you just "quote" the most recent post, and delete the "quote" opener and closer (in the "[ ]"), you could just add onto the list. That is probably the easiest way to do it.

Jeff

edited: Sorry Brenda, my post went up after your post. I'll leave this so others know how to do it.
