My soon-to-be new DH and I will be honeymooning on the Wonder 7/21! We can't wait! We are first time cruisers too!

 

[Sure]

My DW, DD, and sister will be there with our smiles on. We received our cruise docs today. A little last minute shopping and we should be ready to head south. We will be at Radisson Saturday night. Maybe we will run into some of you then.

Hi,

We are also 1st time cruisers. My DH, DD15, DD8, will be sailing. Kids can't wait. We'll be staying at the Hyatt after our long flight from the westcoast.

We will be there and we can't wait! Besides me, it will be my DH, DD8, and DS6. We will also be at the Radisson on Sat. night. Can't wait to meet everyone.

Hi Everyone!
I came up with a list from the previous thread in order to make it easier to keep track of everyone.

Annamae-with DH, DD15, DD8
DeDee- with DH, DS10, DS5
el_tigre- with DW,DS7
MrsScooby- with DH, DS8, DD5
noahsmom- with DH, DS4.5
SafariTigger- with DH
Sure- with DW, DD14, DSis
teacher3410- DH, DD8, DS6
ynggun21- with DW, DD4

Should make for a nice size meet! Does anyone have any preference for time and place? Is 3:00pm ok at Promenade on deck 3? Wearing green leis so we can recognize a Dis member? I wish they had special hats we could wear for these meets.
Also, for those of you at the Radisson . I'll be the one by the pool with the large pina colada (with umbrella) wearing that green lei.

Two weeks til we cruise!

Promenade Deck @ 3 pm sounds great to me. We'll also look for you at the Radisson on Saturday.

Pam

 

[Sure]

Promenade deck at 3:00 sounds great.

I've heard good things about The Grill in Port Canaveral. We're planning on having dinner there the day before and watch the Magic leave port. This is provided we arrive before 5:00pm. It sounds like a fun place, very casual. It is close to the Radisson too.( I know some of you may not be in til late on Saturday )
If any of you go for your ressies right away I'll see you on line for the Spa. (I'm sending DH to reserve table for Palo at the same time).
I so cannot wait for this vacation to start!!

[MrsScooby]

ynggun21? Haven't heard from you in awhile. Just a few more days and we officially pack clothes! WooHoo!

Laurie

 

[Sure]

So when is everyone leaving for the Wonder or WDW? We will be leaving late Friday night the 19th.

Jeff

 

[Sure]

Is anyone leaving their car at the Radisson or are you parking at the port? I'm undecided.

Jeff

 

[teacher3410]

Hi, everyone. We are driving down on the 20th and staying at the Radisson. We hope to arrive around 3:00 pm. Does anyone know what time we can check-in at the Radisson? We are planning on parking our van at port. This seems like it will be most convenient for us.

Pam

 

[MrsScooby]

I'm parking at Port also. It just seems easier that way. Planning on getting there early on the 21st (10:30am). DH is not thrilled at a long wait, but I'm thinking maybe my DS's GameBoy may help
I don't remember what time Radisson check in was. We're leaving on the 19th from Va and plan to arrive at Radisson mid- afternoon on the 20th. It will be so nice to walk around after a long car ride.
Laurie

 

[teacher3410]

I called the Radisson today and was told that check in is anytime after 3 pm. That should be about the time we arrive. We plan on letting to kids swim and then going to dinner. It will be nice not having to rush in the morning. We should be able to have a relaxing breakfast and then head to port. I would like to be at port no later than 11:00.

I feel like I have soooooo much to do this coming week. Just think, this time next Saturday several of us DISers will have already met in person. I think that is going to make it so much fun.

Pam

 

[MrsScooby]

If we get there early enough we'll be at the pool too. I have to remember to get my green lei so I can be spotted .
I think I have most of what I'll need. I just have to go over my list one more time. I am so excited about meeting everyone!
Laurie

Would you believe IM having the hardest time finding Green leis, I went to 4 party stores and not one has green...oh yea they have every other color except green. Only me...would you believe it lol. IM not giving up I will get a green lei even if it kills me...or...or else...IM not going on the cruise : ( lol

 

[ynggun21]

I don't know why when I last posted it never showed in the thread, I responded to he roll call but my post never came up, I have no idea. Laurie I must apologize sorry I haven't been around with work and all they never give me a break I hav more then enough vacation time but they wont let me take a day off...damn Board Of Ed. But I managed to pull a fast one now I have this whol week off I took 2 weeks Vac. and still have 20 days left, maybe after this cruise I just might want to do the 7 day Eastern followed by the Western cruise... yea ok IM pushing it I know but I can dream can't I. like I said in my last post IM having the hardest time finding green leis...just my luck...if it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all I will get them some how even if I hae to paint them myself.

 

[Sure]

Maybe a Tattoo Frankie?

I suppose some of our fellow cruisers are already enjoying the parks.

Won't be long now.

Jeff

 

[ynggun21]

You know Jeff I never thought of that but it might be a bit painful for my daughter, I think I may stick to the basic's and keep looking there has to be a place that has green leis. Thanks for the idea though Yea some may already be out there we arrive in Orlando thursday morning around 10:30 or so, we just might hit Animal Kingdom that day since they close at 6.
