Sailing August 20th 2009- Feeling Lonely

[stagemomx3]

I didn't see a thread started for this cruise, but if there is one, just let me know!

I just booked this Land/Sea Cruise for DH and I to celebrate our 15th anniversary next August. Our anniversary is actually on the 20th so that works out well.

More details later if there are others to share with.

It's only a year away. I can't be the only one.

I'm working on the reveal for DH.

Happy Anniversary!!

We got married on the exact same day 8/20/94. Today makes 14 years for us!!

We are celebrating our 15th next year with a cruise in October, with another family...would have loved to go on our actual anniversary!

I can remember our wedding day like it was yesterday. How quickly time flies!! Did you go to WDW for your honeymoon?

It's 14 years for us today too! No we didn't go to WDW for our honeymoon. I wish we had!

Have you revealed to DH that you are going on an anniversary cruise?

Have you revealed to DH that you are going on an anniversary cruise?

Tonight at dinner I will.

Dinner last night at The Melting Pot was wonderful. I did not take my camera so no food porn, sorry!

A big thank you TyRy for the Ivory soap idea!

Here is what I did, after each course at dinner I presented David with a present wrapped in silver and gold paper.

First course- Fabulous cheese fondue and salad- then he opened the traditional 14th wedding anniversary gift, which is ivory-

Second course- The meat course, we chose to cook ours in the traditional broth, the filet mignon was especially delicious- then he opened the modern 14th anniversary gift, which is gold-

Dessert course- Bananas foster- which is white chocolate fondue with carmel and bananas in it- then he opened the "real" present-

The back of the postcard had our travel information on it.

His first question was "With the kids?" When I told him no, he said "Sweet." He likes the plan very much, he has always wanted to go on a cruise.

Hi all,

We're going on this cruise as well. It will be myself, DF, my DD9 and DF's aunt and uncle and their DS8. DF and I just got engaged back in July and we're seriously thinking of having a surprise wedding while we're cruising. We don't have anything booked yet and I'm in the middle of getting ready for my brother's wedding, but I am going to look into it next week. I'm crossing my fingers that I am able to book something. It will be a total surprise though, because we're not telling anyone about it. Not until the day we marry. Haven't figured out the details yet though. We just want something very intimate.

Cheers

Hello, just booked this cruise, we were booked for one in September, but plans have changed, so we will be on the Aug 20th one instead, before our trip to WDW. It will be Dh, 4 kiddos and I.

 

[WishingMom]

So, at least we know there will be 12 people on this cruise..LOL

Hi everyone,

We are booked for a land (Poly)/sea DCL August 16-23! Glad to see that there are others who are going too! It will be myself, DH, and DS (11). It is our first cruise and the first time we are staying at the Poly. We are really looking forward to this vacation.

It is nice to know that there are others here on the boards that will be taking the same trip. Look forward to getting to know you all!

Anyone have any ideas on what excursions you will be booking?? We are looking to book the hike/kayak excursion at castaway cay and renting snorkeling equipment. Thinking of just staying on the ship and enjoying it when we pull up to port in Nassau.

Take care!

Hi there...

I'm definately going parasailing on Castaway Cay...and hopefully snorkeling. We're getting married on Nassau day, so I'm not sure of what my timelines will be like, but I hope to get to Atlantis.

Hello!
We booked this cruise this morning (got home at 4 am this morning - got off of the Magic yesterday). As long as this sailing qualifies for the bounce back offer (we'll find out on April 6-found out on the board today that you can book now, alter later), we'll be sailing with all of you. Our cruise last week was with our kids/my parents, but this one will be just the two of us. We had a great time last week (our first Disney cruise), so it didn't take much to convince us to cruise with them again...and coming back to cold and snow last night sealed the deal!
We're also Canadian - we live in NS.
Looking forward to counting down the time with all of you!
