*Sept 10th 2011 WB Transatlantic* From Spain to Space Mountain - Part 3

[middleofamerica]

Done! Updated my spreadsheet, will update online now. I also just emailed them for the monthly update since we have 50 on the first full boat plus 9 more. Last month they let me know a second boat would be going but hadn't confirmed it yet.

Prior to the standby list, we had contacted them and got a confirmation of reservation with them for the 2nd boat, too. So technically we're not standby, but I can officially confirm that there will be a second boat and they've sent me a confirmed spot to prove it.

Just a little hope for the standby's out there!

Thank you for adding you guys to the roll call. I realize that my list may not always be as up to date as yours may be but wanted to give people a place to see the lists easily.

I will be looking for a photo in the near future.

This may be a dumb question, but will we get passport stamps from each of our ports of call? Would be nice to add to the collection.

You won't get your passport stamped automatically, but I do believe you can take your passport somewhere to get it stamped, but not sure where!! You don't need your passport to get on off the ship, just some form of identification to get back on!!! We had someone on our PC cruise who kept going off with his passport for to get it stamped.

OMG I can see the Magic coming into Madeira I'm getting so excited.

it must have been your fault claire, i'll blame you anyway to get out of brian's bad books

Oops sorry Brian.

I've read somewhere on the DIS that once onboard you can give your passport to Guest Services for the duration of the cruise & they will get it stamped at each port for you. I hope this is true as I want to get mine stamped too.

Please will everyone who is signing up on the website, would you send a color photo to me as an attachment to an email to my email address of nbirkner@yahoo.com

I want to repeat what Karen has said as it applies to all DIS organised activities.....


If you want to sign up to any of the activities that various people are arranging then you must contact whoever is organising that particular event here on the DIS, confirming you want to take part on the registration of Noel & Johns website will NOT get you added to the official list.

Long day with big hail and tornadoes...We had golfball size hail at the house, but no damage that we can see.

I had to go on air for 5 straight hours this evening covering storms. We had one small town in our viewing area take a direct hit from a tornado. Luckily, even though 200 houses were hit, no one was seriously injured that we know of.

This vacation can't come soon enough! Spring can be so exhausting.

Oh my... we have family staying in Wichita now (to visit friends) after Curt's grandfather's memorial service in OK. They just escaped the AL tornado last month- the neighborhood a half-mile east of them was leveled. We still have our "golf balls" in the freezer from April.

Prior to the standby list, we had contacted them and got a confirmation of reservation with them for the 2nd boat, too. So technically we're not standby, but I can officially confirm that there will be a second boat and they've sent me a confirmed spot to prove it.

We're still not sure if it will be a chartered second boat (for DIS) or not. Either way - his last reply led me to believe it would be a second boat for sure. I've sent him the updated list last night. With us being the only ship in port that day, we will likely all be from the Magic. Surely not too many go vacation there in Sept (?) with hurricane season.

wow those pictures are amazing, cant believe she is here, makes it all seem so real now lol, cant wait to hear from people on there now and see how there trip was,

Ditto!! I checked before going to bed last night but it was still dark there. Glad to see the pictures!!

marilyn what kind of identification do you need to get back on, does it have to be photo id?? i dont drive so dont have a driving licence, so i presume i would have to use my passport
