Sept 11 3 day Wonder? Am I the only one?

[WDWKevin]

I am starting to freak out today, no doubt.

I added in another day for a hotel in Baltimore so I can get there and not have to travel to the airport overnight.

So we leave this FRIDAY.

I have to pack. Gte the FE's done. Figure out how to pack for both WDW AND the cruise without alerting the kids to the cruise part of it (it's still a surprise)

I have to fill our paperwork to get the girls out of school.

I have to make sure all of my work is done and my clients are taken care of while I am gone.

I have FOUR DAYS to do this. Oh and Hanna.

Awesome suprise for the kids! I am taking my Mom and Dad on the 7th's sailing of the Wonder, but they know about it. What they DONT know is that we are not getting off the ship on the 11th, but are staying on for the 3-day too!! They are going to be SHOCKED!

How wonderful WDWKevin! I'm sure your parents will be thrilled! Hey, do you want to "adopt" a sister by any chance?

Cruisinmama- the path that Hanna's taking is looking like it should miss Florida, other than getting rain, so I'll keep my fingers crossed!!

 

[mdhkitten]

Like cruisinmama mentioned earlier, today is the cut off for signing up for the FE exchange. I will repost the finalized list in the morning.

 

[mdhkitten]

Hey, here are some pics of me in case anyone wants to know what I look like. I'm not too hard to spot with the red hair! BTW, I don't normally look so "done up" like my formal picture may indicate. Also, in the one pic is my dd and her father when we took her to WDW on her b'day. They won't be with me.

Me going to the "Red Nose Ball", back in my doctor dating days.

Me with Emily and her dad at her second b'day.

My most recent pic from my June trip to visit some DISer's, with me at the Adventurers Club........."Wait, HOW many martinis did I just drink?!?!" should be the caption!

 

[Risnsun]

Thanks so much!! Y'all are a great looking couple! Oh, and I love your wrap! I had a sapphire wrap the first time that I was married, so I have a soft spot in my heart for wraps!

Hey, here are some pics of me in case anyone wants to know what I look like.

Wow, you look just like Ariel! My daughters are going to wonder where your flippers are!!

 

[mdhkitten]

LOL!! Thanks!! I was eating at with a friend recently and went to the bathroom and this little girl, who was about 6 I'd guess, just kept staring at me.......then she saw me later in the restaurant and did the same thing, staring and smiling. I told my friend and he said that she probably thought that I was Ariel since there aren't tons of redheads around! LOL

 

[Risnsun]

Thats so cute....kids are wonderful! My daughter is an auburn red head. With curly ringlets so she just naturally thinks she is a princess!

 

[cruisinmama06]

Kitten - You DO look like Ariel. My little girl is going to freak when she sees you...lol.

Risinsun - I just looked at your wedding plans today. EVERYTHING is just gorgeous. You are going to be such a beautiful bride. I am so happy for you. CONGRATS!

[Risnsun]

Thank you everyone, it means a lot to have all the support!!! I am excited. I am on vacation in 4 days!!!

OK so now we have IKE on the way. This is an adventure right.

Oh and to make matters worse, someone on another cruise board emailed me to say that she just heard that Disney was cancelling all of their September cruises. Um, no. I didn't know whether to or

I can't find any info on it and the Disney cruiseline site says "NO changes to the sailings" so that's good enough for me.

Yeah, I'd hope that they would let the people with September cruises booked know before the general public.

 

[DAKLNiddy]

They wouldn't cancel them.....if they can get the boat out, they will.

The Wonder trip that took off Sunday- reversed its itinerary- going to Castaway first, then to Nassau, to stay out of the way of Hanna.

The Magic trip that took off yesterday- also altered it's itinerary. (No real details on that one!)

My friend works at DCL- so I'm usually the first to know about most stuff. What we should all be prepared for is maybe an altered trip. We'll still all have a good time and be able to enjoy the "Wonder"ful Disney Cruise.

As my friends at DAKL would say- Hakuna Matata!

BTW, Jason just called to let me know that he received his birth certificate today! Whew! What a relief! He's a little worried because he says that the seal isn't raised all that much, but I think that he'll be fine.

 

[Risnsun]

As long as it has some sort of seal, he is all set!!!

 

[Fivepin]

Good morning everybody-

I haven't checked in for awhile. Still trying to get back into the swing of things with the kids for school and such. 2 go to the same school and my youngest is in preschool. So, it feels like I'm constantly on the go now. Also, tracking these storms We didn't get any major damage from Fay or Gustav. Just alot of branches of the trees-alot of sweeping. I just want to get on the shop. I don't care where we go at this point. We are anxious to meet everyone. I'm going to go back and get caught up.

 

[Forever42]

Hello guys I'm not on this cruise, but my coworker in the office next to me is, so we've been chatting about it since he booked it a few months ago!

Is there anyone else doing Comfort Suites/Atlantis? I showed him how to book it, and his wife is very nervous that they'll be denied entry, so I've been trying to calm their fears.
