Missy, I figured if I put the bottle there, you would just dive right in!

Jen, we booked on Dec 30th and first seating was filled back then. Been on waitlist since then. I also noticed on the main board that Thursday-Friday last week a couple of people were upgraded that were on the Sept 10th cruise so maybe some lucky members of our group will be upgraded later this week. Pixie dust for everyone!!!

PS -- the Sept 10th group only had 300+ posts -- that is only one week's worth for our group.

I just got word that some of the links don't work. I don't know why they work sometimes and not other times. I am going through right now and fixing them all, but it seems that something happens and they won't always work....so there are separate hyperlinks behind the words, also (itinerary, ports of call, etc) You can try those if you are having problems with the pics. Let me know of any problems you encounter and I will fix them.

Who all signed up for the second Lord Sheffield boat? Should be quite a party!

All 12 of us are on the 2nd Lord Sheffield boat... looking forward to a good time!!!

Good morning everyone!! Hope you all had a nice weekend.

We had our Rally Day for Christian Education yesterday. We had one service, we normally have 3, and a picnic. It was a little hot for the picnic and games though.

Currently I am multi-tasking. Catching up on DIS boards and folding bulletins for a funeral we are having at 11 am today. The life of a church secretary. Is it cruise time yet?

Check in later,
Emily

Howdy from Hoosierland!!!!
Hope that all are well and had a great weekend. Only 24 more days of work until we are off to CRUISE!!!

As always, not much going on here. Which is a good thing. Abby started school Thursday, she loves it.(Thank Goodness). Brady starts pre-school Friday. Going to the dentist tomorrow to get a tooh filled, my love for sweets strikes again.

Any guesses on when the docs will start to arrive? Still stuck on second seating, checked out the ressie last night on the website.

And speaking of websites, Jen you have really outdone yourself!! What a great,creative,& outstanding job. :thewave: , you rock!!!

Welcome aboard to the new folks that will be joining us.
My feeble attempt to make this post longer with the use of as many smilies as I could has run out. Just one more....

Talk to ya'll later,
BRAD

Good morning everyone! I have to say hi and run off to the DCL site to see if I got early seating. We went to Dillard's in NW Arkansas yesterday and they were 50% off -- no 75% yet, but got some stuff for DH. Not cutting tags and keeping receipts in case I can scam 75% off in a few weeks. DD cut her finger pretty bad on the dressing room door at Eddie Bauer. We rushed off home and to our local Urgent care. X ray and no breaks and no stitches b/c it cut over her knuckle (on the inside of her hand) but also bleeding from the nail side. She really mashed it hard. She was such a trooper. Right before it happened she was your basic 4 year old at the mall (a nightmare), but she was so good abt her finger. Barely cried. Little angel. She seems fine today but I changed the bandage and put neosporin on it this morning and it still looks bad. Kids amaze me. OK, enough, enough, off to DCL. Be back with report. We booked Dec 28 I think.

We booked on 12/31 and I still have late seating and a 4 year old. I'm a bit pissy abt this. Geeze. So, informal roll call, who has early seating and who has late seating and who is on the fence (i.e., waitlisted)?

Late Here.....

 

[4kidsandadog]

We booked in Jan. 04... early seating here. We had late last time, so maybe if we find out we don't like early, we could switch with you. I'll ask dh his thoughts on the idea.

Early seating

Booked on 12/28/04, still stuck on late. Angela just called our T/A, said she would call and check it out. As for the docs, 1 week prior to the cruise according to her. Seems a little late, but .

Okay, I just called the travel agent and she said they "release" seating for the wait list 30 days out. That is why the Sept 7th cruise got thiers. We should be hearing this week. Cross your fingers.

We had early and changed to late. We booked in October 04. I hate rushing from the sun to get ready for dinner. Docks will come about 3 weeks before sail date. That is what we have always experienced. I think TA just says that so you don't bug them if they are late.

Have a great day,

Missy

Hello everyone! I gotta ask...what is the "Lord Sheffield Boat?" Jen did you get my pic or did I mess it up? Not much happening here just trying to do some "deep" cleaning before my hubby's return. I still have not found a dress. Hopefully tomorrow!
We are on late seating. I will be glad to have an assigned room! I will check in later!

[jennat]

Donna, I didn't get your pic. Can you try it again and see if it works. Or there is the possibility that I have lost my mind.... Lord Sheffield is a pirate ship in St Maarten http://www.innergwindows.com/lord_sheffield/index.html There are a bunch of us going on it and it filled up so, apparently, since there was still interest, they opened up another sailing/ship.

 

[shmora]

Do you book Lord Sheffield on your own or through Disney?

Hi all. We got early seating after being given late seating and waitlisted for early and continuously nagging my TA to help get us early. We are early now.

Jen and KSUMOM we are also on the 2nd Pirate Adventure. All I can say is make sure you confirm your pricing with them. They keep forgetting that their website indicates 5 and under 50% off not 30% off as they told us in the email. We have a party of 10 going. I am not sure how many are on the the boat at a time???? anyone know?

Well gotta go and get my daugther from the bus stop. It's almost 1/2 mile walk and I don't let her make it alone.

Everyone take care.

What an afternoon!!! My baby (aka ) ran away from home this morning. Well actually he got out the gate. We don't know how it got open, we never open it and I don't think he would ever try. But after about 3 hours of searching we found him one street behind ours. I'm so relieved, I was a mess. My pastor/boss told me to go home and help look for him if I wanted to, such an understanding boss. Of course, he has 3 dogs of his own, so he completely understands.
