*Sept 10th 2011 WB Transatlantic* - From Spain to Space Mountain - Part 6

[karentan]

so glad we're starting to see the rest of the room assignments, i'm planning on putting a couple of spare SM lists in my FE just incase people forget their recipients rooms, but wouldnt have been any good if half the room numbers were missing.

for the SM people - i'm in room 5002, there will be some spare SM lists in my FE in case you need to check your recipient's room

 

[karentan]

and just checked mine, i'm still in 5002

Happy Birthday Dan & Karen Hope you're both having a great day.

On the Mixology and Mojito tastings.

The official word is everything is now getting sent over to the ship. No more names can be added to either groups/lists.
Hopefully we will hear something about the dates/times very soon.

Will update as soon as I hear anything.

Safe trip Lynne - thanks for the recap.

Did we manage to split the groups more evenly so that they could accommodate both groups?

Believe it not, I do know one person who is scrambling to see if she can go on this cruise!

That is pretty cool actually, even though I am surprised!

I am so torn about this I have a headache. What do you suggest? Either way I still have to get back to the airport. By the way I emailed the Renassance and they were of no help as to how I should call the hotel for airport pick up.

Sue - did you see my post about this? I can PM you some info I got about the Renaissance shuttle to see if it helps. If I recall correctly, the run on a regular basis, you don't need to call.

Let's all join together in positive thinking!

I am encouraged by these latest maps:

16-Day Outlook

10-Day Map

Thanks Chris, that made me feel a little better. I will breathe again once our plane takes off next Thursday. I fear I am becoming a little negative like my Mother. GOD FORBID !!! Must nip that immediatly. Don't like it at all.

We booked a VGT category room and were pixie dusted with cabin 8554 which is a Category 4A

That would be very helpful Karen. Thanks

The shuttle does run on a regular basis from Terminal 1, with a list of Airlines that does not include Aer Lingus. T2, T3 & T4 said you have to call for pick up once you have your luggage. Hopefully they will schedule a pick up for me. It is probably just paranoia on my part, but just being my sister and I, I think we will stick with the DCL tranportation to the ship. It is nothing personal, I am sooooooo excited to meet everyone. You all seem like such nice people. By the way HAPPY Birthday Karen. Hope you had a great day. I know it is nightime there.

WE GOT OUR ASSIGNMENT!!!!

ROOM 2138! No upgrade, but good to know where we are. The only thing is is that it is a connecting room, and I have heard that you can hear a lot from the other room if you have a connecting. I am not so worried about us, but my kids can be noisy and I don't want to bother anyone else.

 

[Pixie Dust for Me!]

Hi all,

I've come down with a cold and have been feeling horrible for several days and haven't been on much. I guess it means that if I'm sick now, I won't be on the trip.

We leave on Sunday....and I've not packed one darned thing nor have I run all the errands I need to run. Hope to do some tonight and then get to bed early again.

Take care all,

Keri

Hope you feel better soon Keri ... I usually get ill before a trip .. I think I get really stressed with the build up to it and somethings gotta give. Better now than next week though but sending if you are feeling lousy

Keri, feel better soon. I'M SICK TOO. I'm cold, shivery, shaky, sore throat, stuffy nose... I don't bleeding have time for this!

I know it's better to get it over with now, but I have clients up the yingyang all this week, including a wedding party to beautify tomorrow night (meaning I can't cancel unless I lose my pulse, otherwise I'll be murdered by a very ticked off bride).

Am just feeling sorry for myself, sorry! Please send get-well vibes... my husband wants me quarantined to the sofa so he doesn't catch it!

 

[Pinky166]

Pat, Noel, Karen & Michelle

I have PM'd you all a list of the GTY's that have posted room numbers so far, I will continue with my list tomorrow morning.

My sister and her DH stayed in that room on the June 2009 Western Caribbean cruise! The kids and I were next door in 2013! It was a great room! Nice and dark - great for sleeping!

Wow!! That is a bit of pixie dust!!!


Congrats!!

 

[liesbeth1012]

Yes, we have a cabin.
Room 6146.
Who does I PM.
I have set it on FB too.

Good evening everyone
Great news about the room assignments coming in !!!!

I have sent an email through the FE google doc, at least i think i have but not sure as i didnt really know how the communication part worked, so thought i'd also put my garbled and waffled message on here too!!!

Here goes...........

I wanted to explain the story behind our Candy swap items without giving away what it is, because i thought i'd be able to make little tags to go on the bags explaining where it was from in the UK and what cabin it was from, but i have had no luck in making said tag!! Ok now i'm waffling so i'll just get done with explaining.

At some point during the cruise you will all find a small clear bag in your FE's/Candy holders with candy in and there is a sticker that says what the candy is and also where it is from.

So this is the explanation i wanted to put on the bag but couldnt........
The candy was brought from Pooh Corner, in Hartfield, East Sussex, which is roughly 10 minutes away from where we live. This is the original Pooh Corner store which is situated on the edge of Ashdown Forest, (which was made The Hundred Acre Wood in the stories) where A.A Milne lived and based the original Winne The Pooh stories on. Within the forest is also Pooh Bridge where you can throw pooh sticks, Roos sandy pit and the Heffalump Trap as well as much more. This is the map of the area (We live in small town called Edenbridge, which you will see labelled at top of map) .....

Over the years we have taken many of the children we have cared for to these woods and to Pooh Corner and they have loved every minute, so i just wanted to share with you all a little background behind our candy swap gift, because i was dissappointed that i couldnt fit on the bags!

So now when you see the little bag in your FE with the Pooh Corner label, you will know its from hazelandannie )))

Just logged on to DCL web site and we got our room!

We are in room #2086. I will PM those that need our number.

Congrats! That looks like a perfect mid-ship location near laundry as well!

Let's all join together in positive thinking!

I am encouraged by these latest maps:

16-Day Outlook

10-Day Map

Those help me breathe easier as well! I had already emailed Curt at work to get us nonrev passes "just in case", and I know he was rolling his eyes at me. I'm always the Plan B, Plan C, Plan D.... type of girl.

Oh -- and more positive news - neither airport we flew threw this weekend had me place my baby out of my line of vision at TSA. I actually asked in Kansas City yesterday, and they were appalled that I was told to do that in Denver. Apparently that IS a huge no-no. Don't place luggage OR kids out of your sight! (So glad that was just a Denver agent being a dumba**)

Keri - we leave Monday, and are nowhere near packed. Curt has not started.

Look at sickness this way: You are getting it out of your system!! That is what we said about that kidney stone.

Cabin 2015! Looks cozy! wahooo!!! Am i neighbors with anyone? I think i'm close to Mandy?

Howdy, neighbor!!! We are practically across the hall!

Keri, feel better soon. I'M SICK TOO. I'm cold, shivery, shaky, sore throat, stuffy nose... I don't bleeding have time for this!

Get well soon!! and get those sickies out of your system!

Wow!! That is a bit of pixie dust!!!


Congrats!!

So did anyone with the restricted guarantees get pixie dusted out of their category? Such as Inside to Outside? Or Outside to Verandah? Or did DCL stick with it being pretty restricted?
