Roll Call. Oct.19,02

Yipee

Reading this thread gets me excited.
We should be receiving our docs soon

Any of the newbies with DU? I do hope they forward our docs on, or just have them delivered to us.

We have a paper chain in Clare's room to count down the days. She takes one chain off each night. The chain is Disney paper of course. I think most nights I am more excited than she is..

Sounds like our 3-5 year old clubbies are adding up. They will have a blast.

We are still probably a few weeks away from docs. Whoever gets theirs first must let the rest of us know so we can start bugging our travel agents!

I keep thinking that maybe this is all not real. We've been planning this for so long & it's almost here.

Are their any girls going to wear formals (long dresses) Mine (age 9) are wanting to hit the sales too & I was wondering how fancy the little ones dress on the ship.

Beth I know exactly how you feel about not believing it is real. When I read this board I have to keep telling myself "Hey I am a part of that"!!!

We will be a Port Orlenes Friday night will anyone else be there??
How long does it take to get to the doc from DisneyWorld?

We are driving from Colorado and leaving on Oct 10. I just realized I will miss some of the last post on this board
It is so fun to hear everyone's excitement about this cruise and know I am not alone.

A gang of 9 year old girls is upon us! Mine, (Katie) will be wearing a long black velvet dress, with a red jacket that's optional. She LOVES to dress up, I have to monitor her with the make-up however.
Any 6 year old boys out there???

My neighbor the Wine Distributor has informed me of the wine that I am bringing. It's called Vampire and is made in Transylvania. Something trendy at the moment apparently. (Good for the upcoming Halloween season?) (I'll also bring my favorite Pino Noir in case this turns out to be nasty). Oop, just tried a google search and this review on Vampire Wine came up from a year ago, FYI.Vampire wine review
We'll see, huh?

Talk to ya'll later.

Oh wow, found a perfect restaurant to get into that cruisin' mood. Has anyone ever been to a Bahama Breeze Restaurant? They have them in a variety of states, "check for a location near you!"Bahama Breeze
If you don't have one locally, get yourself on a plane and join us Coloradans for the Ultimate Bon Voyage party on Oct. 5th. Yezzz, eets time to paarty, mon. Let's synchronize our parties and let the nation hear our toast. Sounds like there's the makings for a party in Ohio!
See ya'll.

Denine,

I haven't read up on the wine and sailaway parties...I haven't had the time to sort through all the messages! It is a small world, I grew up in the same neighborhood by the hospital as your husband (Regency Drive). Looking forward to meeting both of you!

disney6,

Mentor and Brecksville, huh? Not too far from where I live now in Parma Heights. What made you move if you don't mind me asking? I'll have to catch up with you on the cruise!


Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome to the thread!

 

[disneydudette1]

It looks like the excitement is growing! I guess you all missed the boards this weekend!
I bought the first bottle of NJ wine today. 1999 Villard Noir Tomasello Winery right down the road a bit. I never tried it so no guarentee. They have a web site on the bottle www.tomasellowinery.com

Welcome to the newbies! 5PM Sailaway Party in the front of the ship. Sunday 2PM Wine Party on Deck 7 Secret Veranda.

Wisc.: I have a friend who is from Wisconsin but now lives in TX. She is a die hard Green Bay Packer fan! Has a room in her house dedicated to them.

I will be posting until about 12 noon on Oct 18th. Will anyone else be here till the end?

Denine: If you bring the litter box I'll bring the food! I don't want to leave my baby home either. Think we could smuggle them on?

To all the moms sending children to school for the first time: Wait till they get married!!!! I don't know which was worse. I think the marriage one is. Sorry.

Still nothing from Dudette #2 HMMM! Think she can do it?????

 

[Kristaia]

I will be posting until the 17th.

I won't admit it but I was trying to log on from my other e-mail address and it wouldn't work so now I am trying to log on from my cable address - we shall see.

Disney Dudette #1 has a birthday tomorrow. Everyone send her a birthday congrats.

I am getting SOOOOOOO excited and only Dudette #1 & 2 know what that means!

I have a navy blue ball gown that I couldn't resist for the formal night, a black cocktail dress for the semi-formal and numberous dresses, capri sets, etc. Everything new!

I am saying a little prayer that this goes through.

 

[DisneyDudetteTwo]

I should be getting a call from Disney Dudette #1 any minute as she reads my post. She loves this forum and is almost as addicted as she is to pin collecting when we go to WDW.

Last year the 3 Dudettes went to WDW (bought way too much) & then on the 4 day WDC. We had so much stuff the driver had to hold it at his house & bring it when he picked us up after the cruise. Dudette #1 & I also went to WDW in December with my 19 year old son and had a great time - perfect weather (80's no rain), no crowds, Christmas Decor. & the choral recital. All 3 Dudettes are going in December this year for a week. I used DU and got a great rate for the Dolphin since we are all Nurses.

I am only adddicted to pin collecting with Walt on them. Since HE'S THE MAN!

That's it for now. I am back my fellow cruisers and hopefully I will be able to log on from this point on .

 

[disney6]

Garry, I don't mind you asking...... Greg (DH) works for Lincoln Electric Company and was transferred here to run a biz they bought 4 years ago. Our Canadian contract is 2-5 years and we've been here 4 of those years now so looks like next summer could be it (we LOVE it here!) Could end up back in Ohio since they're headquartered in Euclid. Time will tell......... (in the meantime the kids are playing as much ice hockey as possible )

We have a flight (YEA, NOT ANOTHER DRIVE!!!!) out of Buffalo Oct. 18 early so the 17th will be my last posting! Flying into Jacksonville (the price was right!) so plan on being at the Radisson around 5:30 or so.

 

[Denine]

With all the new posts, it seems like a week since I looked at this board!!!!!

To all the newbies: Please e-mail me your info (names, cabin #, kids names, excursions) I will pass out the info at the sailaway or the wine party. I have 9 families so far.

All these people with Ohio roots! Gary: Jerry grew up on Lalemant! This is a small world.

I just ordered an anniverary basket from Shirley. I can't wait to see how it turns out. Everyone says she is great.

We are leaving on the 11th and driving down. We cruise on the 12th and then again on the 19th

We don't have doces yet for either cruise.

 

[disneydudette1]

Yea Jeanne!

In Front Page class. Look for a dudette website soon!

No Documents yet. Soon I hope. I can't take the wait anymore, you guys get me too excited!

 

[Denine]

Someone on our 10-12 cruise got their docs!!!!

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

COOL !!! We're getting there. This is getting SO real!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Welcome to all you newbies! Since I have been away you have all been so chatty. Not even going to try to respond to anything. Getting a little nervous about meeting up front when we, as Lori would put it, shove off. Sorry Lori, couldn't resist. It is definitely a small area and it sounds like A LOT of people. The area is long but not very deep. Basically, we can line the railings and be about 3 or 4 deep. I guess whatever happens happens!!!! Look forward to our Bon Voyage Party with Lori and Mickey02 at Bahama Breeze. Thanks to Lori for setting it up.

 

[disneydudette1]

I wish I lived in Colorado!! Hopefully I will have a Dudette web site up and running so you all can at least recognize us when we get there.

Maybe we'll have our Docs in about a week if the 12th cruisers are starting to get theirs!

 

[DisneyDudetteTwo]

Remember!!!!! Disney Dudette #1 has a birthday tomorrow All cruisers send a happy day to her!

Checked to see if we had a "Bahama Breeze" in our area of New Jersey to get us in the mood - none yet but one is coming to Cherry Hill in 2003.

I hope Disney Dudette #1 is very proud of me

 

[Kristaia]

Happy Happy Birthday.

Remind us of this special event when we've had a few and are threatening to knock on doors.

Hope your birthday is "Magical"

Krista
