"Once Upon a Dream" 4 Night Dream Cruise 10/16/2011

[loveysbydesign]

I have to say that I found very interesting that all the inside cabins are sold out....and that I just priced out 2 adults and 1 child in a room and the verandah
6B is cheaper ($1,820.16 )than the oceanview 8A ($1,835.16) !
Here's hoping some of us get upgraded to verandahs!

Yes we are going to be down there from Oct. 9 until the first cruise on the 20th but then were getting back on for the 3 day cruise. Were going to try to do 2 days at WDW and 1 day at Sea World.

We plan to arrive on the evening of the 9th(we're driviving) and may do the parks Tues-Fri/Sat(3-4 days mixed amongst those dates)...not sure yet depends on finances. We may do a YES program to get discounted tix.

We've never been to US and were thinking of going there but there's no way we can afford to stay onsite and I'm not gonna go to US w/o fotl access. We'll do US another year when our youngest is a little older...maybe in Nov. 2012 or May 2013.

We're also thinking of taking the kids to Gatorland one day just for fun since we've never been there.

Thanks Kristen!
I keep having this really weird ship dream. It's some like the Wonder and some like the "Love Boat" lol.

You do realize I will be singing that song all day now, right?? "The Love Boat..."

We are! Two nights before, three after, and then three nights at US/IOA. Can't wait!

Very interesting... everyone wants to see Nemo and his friends I think!.. I could be persuaded to change Nemo for a verandah though

Yes, not sure which parks we're doing yet - we have 17 days altogether - 7 of which are the cruises, so we have 10 days for shopping, chillin in the villa and the parks

[Twinprincesses]

Do they have to make any days up? Our wonderful state reduced clamity days from 5 to 3 and everyone around is at that or over. Oh wanted to tell you we can hear that penny from hear. LOL

There are only 2 snow days built into our school calendar, which is ridiculous! They have used up those 2 days and 2 more already. They are calling for a another storm Tues. & Wed. PA state law says they can not go to school later than June 30th. So I guess if we keep having snow days they will be in school until then
As of now they are ONLY going til June 17th! Every snow day we have will be added on to that.
My penny is getting louder as my dh is not making as much money as he was previously...I was shocked to see that he made 5k less this past year than he did the year before...plus our health insurance costs went up. No wonder we never have any $$$!

We absolutly understand about less money and expenses being more my DH works for the state and they havent recieved a raise in 4 years and starting last year they have to have 10 furlo days and health insurance deff went up too. I'm glad disney allows people to make payments!!! this cruise we're using our DVC points but the 3 day after that we're paying for. Glad for Giant Eagle selling Disney Gift Cards then it goes towards our fule perks too.

Is so sad today. My 11 y.o. sons beloved cat Stripey passed away suddenly. I was woken up this morning to my ds crying and yelling Stripey's dead. He was acting fine last night, like his normal kitty self. We have other beloved cats in our home too but Stripey was my son's and I feel so sad right now.
We rescued him almost 4 years ago after our elderly cat had passed away and my son was crying every night in bed for 3 months. He took out eldest cat's passing harder than everyone else. Stripey immediatly took to Richie and "knew" he was his cat. He would meow outside his bedroom door every morning at 6:45 to wake him up fot school. He was only 7-8 years old. We have 2 other cats who are 15 and 16 and are not the healthiest looking! Stripey was so young compared to them and was so strong!

So sorry to hear of the passing of your cat. The same thing happend to my upstairs neighbor. She went off to work and found her cat gone when she got home.
We had to let my oldest cat go to heaven a few years back and I was the one that had to go to the vet. She was so dehydrated. I knew it was the best thing for her but the death was just like using a human and took me some time to get over.
Now we have two other cats Princess and our baby Midnight whom is the troublemaker!
