Thanks Sean. Was there anything on what you could access about the meet times/options for the tours in Grand Cayman? For example, what times are offered for the Grand Cayman Island Tour?

With High School Musical 3 opening in theaters on October 24th, is it a pretty safe bet that it will be playing on the Magic during our cruise?

Both of my daughters are really hoping that they can see it on the ship.

hello from my new I phone
Sorry missed chat again

I have a new iPhone TOOO!!!! YAY!

 

[suziemva]

Can I just say I am TOTALLY envious of you that have the iphone! I've heard (mostly) great things about it and how much it does! No wonder they're gone as soon as it comes out!

I looked into the Verizon Voyager but when we we're getting phones there was a 2 week waiting list for it! So I got the enV instead (love it, btw!) but it's no iphone!

Hey, Newfiemom!! Thanks for sending the rain! Boy, I asked and you sent! But did you have to send so much?!

Sean, thanks for the excursion info, too!

Later all! I have to shut down my computer because of the storms now.

No problem. Glad it helped.

Our fence variance was approved tonight. We can have a 4 foot fence for Max. The zoning rules for a corner lot limited us to 3 foot without the variance.

The National Health System Pharmacist meeting is this December in Orlando. I've been asked about Orlando hotels. Specifically near the convention center. Anybody got experience with lower cost, with decent quality hotels in the area around the Orlando convention center?

Hi all,

Timidly jumping in here, you guys have such a great thread going!

My family will be on this sailing and with the 75 day mark looming I am really wondering about our dining rotation.

We have Late Dinner and have requested 8pm. Don't know if that counts for anything, but what are the "latest" in the dining rotation?

I have read that 8pm is APPLAPL, am I even close?

Gonna be a great sailing with all the DISers!

If I get up enough nerve, maybe I will introduce myself
