We will be there then as well. We arrive late Friday Oct 29th, and return mid day Sat the 6th. We are staying at Caribbean beach.
We have our daily parks all planned out and have all of our ADRs already.

Hey Jeff and everyone!

Would love to join you guys over teachers convention week but we only have the Thursday & Friday off at this time. Would have to take the kids out of school for three days to make it worthwhile (harder for 10th & 7th grade). If we did I would consider maybe taking the them out the 8,9,10th so that we could meet with everyone going the full teachers week and then spend some time with Shell and family who are going to be their the following week.

If that dose'nt work we are thinking about going the last week in August as part of the free dining plan promotion, even though that time is hit and miss with storms or heat.

Haven't been on here in a while, but we're also going to Disney World the same week. We arrive October 30 and stay until November 7. We'll be staying at Wilderness Lodge for 8 nights...so excited!! I loved the cruise so much that I would have booked it again, but can you believe that the kids want to see Disney World. Alyson was 2 the last time we were there and now she'll be 7 so it'll be exciting for her. Colby will be 9 so I'm excited that they will be able to experience everything. As for another cruise, we'll try for the Dream sometime in 2011. Hope everyone is doing well!!

I REALLY like this idea.

Wish we could meet up on the 6th or 7th, Pam! We're excited, too. The last time Jaydin was in Disney (other than MNSSHPs) was when she was 14 months old. She really has no concept.


Sure would like to do a Cruise Reunion in 2012......

We have all of ours planned out, too, Jeff. We sent our ADRs to our IPO on the Friday before our 180 days and got an email that next MOnday saying that we had everything we wanted. LOVE IT.

Summer Greetings:

Hey everyone, great to hear of everyone's plans for Disney Trips. We are still undecided if we are going to be able work one in this year in late August or somehow set something up to do a NJ Teachers Convention trip, since our schools are only off Thursdy & Friday this year.

But since that we have made some great friendships from this Cruise we just finalized a New Jersey Halloween Haunts Goodwill Tour.

The day after the kids get out of school (delayed by 7 Snow Make-up days) we will be loading the family into the van and embarking on a trip to Atlanta to visit with ntheory (Shell, Mark, Jonah & Jaydin).

Along the way down, we have plans to stop and spend time with dreamsoftravel (Jen, Eric, and family) in Annapolis, MD.

We will then continue on the next day and visit with renysmom (Kelly & John & of Course Walter, who we haven't been able to get Kermit to stop asking if it is time to leave to visit his best cruise buddy in the world) in Richmond, VA.

We will then depart the next day and arrive to spend four days with Shell and family, enjoying down time.

We will post pictures if we get the chance along the way.

We would still like to set up a NJ Meet & Greet Reunion for late July or early August. We have had some interest since my post a couple of weeks ago and have had an offer by Princess81499 (Patty to Host it). So if I get the chance over the next week I will try to follow-up on this. If not I will definitely make time when we get back.


Take care and hope everyone has a good couple of weeks now that school is done or winding down.

 

[jnadelman]

Count us in for any NJ reunion. Have fun on the trip visiting everyone.

 

[princess81499]

Mike and I would love to host a NJ Reunion! Start sending me some thoughts on dates and who is interested.

Our future Disney plans:

WDW Animal Kingdom Villas 10/30-11/6/10
DCL Alaska 7/12/2011
Looking at DCL Dream Summer 2012 with a trip to universal/Sea World

Hey Everyone-

I haven't been on here lately. Glad to see everyone is still checking in. We are not doing Disney for the NJ Convention week. We are surprising the kids with a trip to Disney in early October! Already bought tickets for the Halloween Party, can't wait!! We are staying at Animal Kingdom Villas.

Also, is anyone going in January for Marathon Weekend? I will be running the half marathon again this year & signed the kids up for the kids races too!

Hope everyone is having a great summer so far!

Kristen

Hey 10/31 cruisers!!!! It's hard to believe that we're almost to the 1 year anniversary of our trip, isn't it?! Wow.

Remember that we're still chatting on Sunday nights at 8. If you need an invite, please send me your email. AND ... if you're going to join us on chat, PLEASE chat ... don't just lurk there in the shadows watching our conversation.




We had a GREAT time with Steve, Diane, Stephanie and Kristen while they were here in June. Now, we miss them terribly!!


We're leaving here on November 5 (stopping 1/2 way that night) to head down to the Poly until the 14th. 38 days ... but who's counting?!





Hope everyone is doing well. Check in when you get the chance. And join us for Chat on Sunday!!

Hey Fellow Halloween Haunts Cruisers:

Would love to keep in touch with you guys and see how everyone is doing now that we are close to a year gone by.

Would love to add you guys as friends of mine on facebook. Please send an invite to me (Steve Brennan).

Hope all is well an we would love to look at a reunion cruise for 2012!

 

[whayes]

Hey all!

I hope that everyone going to Disney soon will have an excellent time. I still have about 70 days until my trip. I am getting excited!!

Take care.

Hi All --

For those families that are going to Disney World for "NJ week," we are getting close Packing has been a bit difficult between working and all of Kyla's after school activities but it WILL get done in the end. We leave on Friday and stay one night at the Animal Kingdom Lodge, club level. Then, it is off to the Beach Club villas for 7 nights!!!!!!! We are STILL wait listed for BLT but it doesn't look like it will happen , that's ok. MNSSHP is November 1 and a wishes cruise out of the Contemporary is on November 2. Hope everyone has a magical time, whatever you will be doing next week!!!!

 

[ntheory]

Hope all the NJers have a great time in WDW next week. We'll be taking over when you leave, so leave some Magic for us! We leave here in 10 days. Can't wait!!!

We're doing the Poly this time. Haven't done it before, so it will be a great new experience. We will bring in the Christmas season in the right way with the MVMCP on the 8th (first one of the year!!). The concierge there has been awesome to work with.


We'll miss our cruisers .... particularly this weekend on the anniversary of our cruise. I'll be thinking about all of you, though.


For any of you still at home on Sunday, we're planning to chat, I think. It will start a little late with all of the kids' festivities going on (around 8:30 or 9 Sunday night). Hope some of you will join us!!

Our chats are fun and are a great way to relive some memories!!

We have enjoyed the opportunity to build on special friendships made on this cruise; and the opportunity to chat at least once a week, on the Kids chat Friday night at 8:00 and the Adult Chat Sunday evenings at 8:00. Would love to have more of you join us as we go through this Anniversary week!

One year ago, I was driving to Orlando .......

 

[ntheory]

Ok .... so how did all of the WDW trips go?? Ours was great!!

 

[princess81499]

Our trip was great too! We loved the Animal Kingdom Villas - tons of room in the 2 bedroom! I wasn't prepared for the cold weather those last two days though.

We enjoyed Tusker House for breakfast, Teppan Edo for dinner, and Tutto Italia for dinner as well.

Now on to the planning stages for our Alaska cruise in July and a Universal/SeaWorld/5 night Dream cruise for Aug 2012.

Have a MAGICAL time, all of you who rebooked. We will be going to Disney World this November but will most likely be heading back to Disneyland next August due to competitive dance and gymnastics schedules. Enjoy yourselves!
