OCTOBER 23RD 2005 - 4-Day Wonder - 102305 - 10232005 - 20051023

[Henlady]

Congrats on the upgrade Kristen.

Nice door sign Admiral. I've been working on mine for a while. We'll see how it turns out.

I started ironing some of DH's shirts that he's taking along, don't want to have to spend the night before ironing for 2 hours . I'm gonna try the tip someone else posted on the boards about placing each shirt in a dry cleaners bag before putting it in the garment bag - supposedly it keeps the wrinkles to a minimum, so we'll give it a try.

11 days till we leave for our 30th Anniversary Tour - 4 nights on the Wonder and 3 nights at PO-R

Admiral Boom-Love the door sign! We may be long lost relatives- DM (who is traveling with us) maiden name is Kirk! I may not introduce you to her or you will get the whole "where is your family from?" and 100 other questions! Count us in also on the Dis tag game. But, we don't have a scanner or digital camera, if we end up with it at the end -so you better all not leave it on my door at the end if you'd like to see a picture of it posted

We'll do our best to be at the 3:00 meet on the secret deck.

Feel free to stop us if you see us! I'd be glad to meet any of you! We look like--Well, see picture below, but without Renaissance garb!

See you all in less than 2 weeks.

For the record, DW's DS, DBiL and DNeices are embarking on the Wonder this coming Sunday! (We intentionally took a different week, this being our first cruise and all.) The nice thing about that is that we're not only doing our best to patiently wait for our cruise ; but we're also getting a little side order of excitement for them as they get ready to leave!

I'm so excited we got our documents today!!! About time! Time will fly. I hope I get everything done before we leave. So much to do! Can't wait to meet everyone.

Nice door sign Admiral! Kinda jealous of those of you with the time and talent to be so creative. BTW, I was in your next of the woods this past weekend near Jackson and saw the end of that game on TV sitting next to another die hard M fan. Too bad.
See you all soon. Still no word on parents docs yet.

[Admiral Boom]

Yes. Stupid field goals. I can't remember the last time we lost to Minnesota - I think it was at least 10 years ago, if not more. I want to say maybe even the 80's. If you were by Jackson, you were about 20 minutes from me. I live on the west side of Ann Arbor very close to Dexter.

Also, my wife is the creative one. All of that stuff is done by her. I just tell her what I'm picturing and she makes it happen. I'm ignorant with such things.

 

[keef22]

I have document questions!!

We finally got ours; but since we're DVCers and using points (I know, I know, "don't do that! you're wasting money!") I'm interested to know what I should put on the sheets to give the folks in the Bahamas.

What do I put for travel agent? Since we're not really staying the night, do we have to mark what our accomodations are?

If someone could PM me and help me out with some of this stuff, I'd appreciate it! I just want to be able to move quickly through the line when we get to Port Canaveral. I've always been extremely careful to have as much ready to go as possible so that I'm not holding up a long line of people when I get to the front...

Less than 2 weeks!

 

[Admiral Boom]

Who'd you book through? DCL? Your agent, then, would be the "Magical Cruise Co., Ltd." out of Celebration Florida.

Number of nights? We're not staying over night. So, zero.

 

[Henlady]

Yippee on getting your docs Keef22. We got ours filled out over the weekend. Thanks Admiral - was wondering what to put in for the "nights stay" part. I also used DCL so I put Magical Cruise Co, only in the docs booklet it had Lake Buena Vista for the address so I used that. If it's wrong I'll just fill out another one at port, no biggie.

DF Sue and I are booked for the 11:00 Castaway Ray Stingray Excursion. Anyone joining us?

Still working on our door signs. My printer is having issues, so don't know how they'll turn out.

I have a lot of our stuff packed. It's 10 days till we leave and I can't believe I've packed stuff already. I'm usually packing the night before. I must be excited about this trip.

Admiral: Yes, believe it was '86 since the loss to MN. I stayed in Jackson at night and was in Concord during the days for a dog test I was chair of. aw: Have at least one club member from Dexter so slightly familiar with the area.

DH, DD and I are doing the Stingrays at 9A. Tried to change to 10A online but 9&10 are not available right now. May be able to change once onboard. Just afraid we may not have it together to make it on time by 9 and 11 too close to chow time for DH & DD.

My parents, B&M received their docs last Fri, just 'forgot' to inform me. They would like to do the dis tag too and are in room 2045. DM is fine w/that. Felt for first cruise and concerns about possible sea sickness being on a lower deck may help.

We are planning on arriving at the port around 11A, no later than 12N. Looking forward to meeting everyone. If I get everything packed into suitcases that is in my head this past week, we have it made.

Attention folks:

We are now:

SINGLE DIGIT DANCING!

What are everyone's travel plans?

We arrive into MCO on 10/22 (my birthday!) at 11:58am - Northwest Airlines. Then (as it stands right now) we're renting a Mustang soft-top from Hertz and doing a one-way rental to port canaveral so we have a car for the day to explore around. If the weather forecast keeps up, though, we may end up dumping the car and doing tiffany towncar both ways to and from port and just sitting at the hotel. At present 10/22 and 10/23 are 60% change of rain. of course.
