Roll call for the 10/23/2004 Western Magic. Who's with us?

[DMoss3377]

Hey Pat! It's about time you posted and said hello to everyone! LOL

Although, I'm sure they'll all know who you are by the end of the cruise.

Well...gotta let the puppy out to go potty...the joys of puppy ownership. Lot's of potty breaks.

I run a reading program , so I might be able to get Scholastic books in Spanish fairly cheap. All grade levels???

OK, one ruin tour and a snorkle sounds good to me.

I'll start working extra hours as I have a feeling I'm gonna be buying those first drinks (where're my docs?????)

 

[BeanoC]

Cheri,

No docs here yet either, so maybe the first 2 rounds are on you and I, respectively?

Patrick, nice to hear from you. Can't wait to meet you and let you buy me a beer! LOL

One bit of bad news for us personally - my sister, who has been booked on this cruise with us for months now, has had to cancel due to family issues. Having to do so just 3 weeks before the cruise has her pretty depressed, so send her a bit of pixie dust, can ya?

Hi All!!!

I did post much earlier in this thread but I've become a bit of a lurker. So I thought being as there is only 23 days until we all go cruising that I'd better stop being so lazy and start posting again!

So...I suppose I'd better re-introduce myself...

My name is Darren, Hi (my username gives a big clue!).
and I'm going to be cruising with a friend called Rachel.

Were both Disney Nuts, I'm an ex-DCL crew member and ex-WDW cast member and my friend worked at Disneyland in CA up until very recently.

I'm from the wonderful cold, grey and miserable UK (well it is at the moment anyway!) and my friend is from sunny southern California.

And...you'll be able to find us in stateroom 6133 (just look for the crazy people ), unless we get an upgrade, i'm keeping my fingers, legs and arms crossed for this (which believe me is quite painful ).

Well I suppose thats enough with the boring re-intro bit, I don't know about you lot but my excitement level is now through the roof and I just can't wait to go. Were still waiting for our Docs though but it seems from what i've read here you are all waiting for yours too so I'm not too concerned.

Recently i have been thinking, work sucks....so i am on a mission, to find me a wife down on one of the islands, get hitched and live the rest of my life dodging hurricanes and sitting on the beach, or just hide in one of those hidden compartments on the ship! All those in favor, say aye...

Hey Darren, glad to see you around again. Can't wait to see you again and meet Rachel. Hope you warned her about all of us!

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. What a nice surprise.

Patrick, let me just say that there are a lot of us women who just love to meddle. We will help you find you that "wife". All those in favor say "aye"........

Pixie dust to Beano's sister. How awful to cancel so close to the cruise.

We will be stopping for Pepsi in Florida so will probably just tack on school supplies as well. Like you said, paper is a weight issue. I was going to buy colored pencils but it looks like that is taken.

 

[DisneylandDarren]

Hi Sandy, Thanks for the welcome back!

and
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

 

[pmcougar05]

I am all about meeting women! As soon as i get on the ship i am gonna get me a martini and call everyone i know to rub it in! I will probably be one of the freakiest people on this trip....2 tattoos, a nip piercing....but no worries, i will try not to scare the children. What exciting excursions is everyone doing? I cant make up my mind what i want to do!

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Hi Darren, glad to see you posting. BTW, I am Sandy's daughter Heidi!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!!! (notice I was nicer on this thread, didn't take up as much space with smiley's!!)

I was suprised to see that Faith beat me to birthday wishes and so did Darren!!! Must have spent too much time doing it on the other thread!!!

Welcome aboard Patrick. I too would like to hide away on an Island, darn work stops me everytime. One word...AYE!!!

Sending some Pixie Dust to Beano's sister. That is too bad.

Still no docs for me either. Now I am getting ANGRY and IMPATIENT!!!

 

[pdarrah]

Hi Darren & Patrick,

Have you checked out our cruise website at www.bwdarrah.com/dcl yet? If you would like to be added to the "Who's going" list, just post here, PM or email me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDY!

Carla, Sandy, Cheri (and anyone else who's interested) here is what I "know" about the schools. There are 3 schools. The Kindergarten in a 1 room building and has about 20 kids. The Primary & Middle school are together in a 2 room building (1 room for each) and there are 45 to 50 kids there. The High School has 7 or 8 kids. The count for the kids is from the end of May so there may be some variation.

We are going to just go to the Kindergarten - I don't think we can carry enough in our luggage for all 3 schools and since Darrah is in Kindergarten and his class wants to participate, that makes the most sense for us. If anyone else would like to bring stuff to the Kindergarten, I think we should try and organize ourselves and all go at the same time so we aren't disrupting their lessons multiple times! Although we don't have excursion info yet, past DCL cruisers have posted that the ruins tour starts at 8:00am, so I am assuming right now that we will need to go to the Kindergarten after the tour.

One last thing - I have added "MNSSHP" to the "who's going" page for Mom2Princesses, DudetteTwo and DudetteThree, BeanoC, Kamgen & Tarzanman, DMoss3377, and Soccermom-Cheri. Is there anyone else that is going that would like it added to their info?

Still no docs here either...

RonnieJo

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Do you know what I want for my birthday??????????? MY DOCS!! Wouldn't that be a great gift?

 

[pmcougar05]

Well not to rub it in, but i think i got my docs last week, need to go to the rental office to pick them up, since i was on a vacation at the outer banks last week....ahh, the life of a bachelor. OH, also happy b-day sandy....what did you get us? I am just sitting back relaxing now daydreaming about lounging on the ship, eating lots of food, gaining about 20lbs.....ahh

patrick

 

[jiminyC_fan]

[pmcougar05]

patrick

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Geez Patrick, I think you can take up a whole page just by yourself with all the posts you had done today!! I am the exact some way when I am not very busy at work, I post probably about 15 posts on one thread if I am bored!!!

Mom - remember a few weeks ago that I told you it looks like the docs will show up on your birthday...Lets hope!!

 

[pmcougar05]

Unfortunately i am pretty busy at work, but the boss has been not so nice to me so....yeah. I have alot to get off my chest, mostly hair, but thats ok. I have to catch up and get to know everyone that i will be cruisin with...see if i can keep up with all the party goers.

patrick...

ps...where is drinking mickey icon?

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Fellow Colorado friends, we may be lucky today. I just read on another post that someone else from Colorado that is going on the Oct. 23 cruise just got their docs today!!! Maybe they didn't get lost and the people out west will FINALLY receive their docs. C'mon, bring on the docs.
