Hi everyone, my name is Terry. My very best friend Stephanie (Steffy on the DIS) and I are booked on this cruise!!!!!!! We are so excited... We will both celebrate our 60th birthday while on this cruise. We have known each other for over 20 years. We now work together,,so we talk about our trips when we go to lunch.
My first cruise was way back in 1987 on the NCL on the Norway. It was a big band cruise so DH and I were able to see Tony Bennett and Ruby Keeler from the ogiginal 42nd Street. Stephanie has been on a few cruises just not sure of how many exactly but I know at least two of them were Disney.

Then while reading some trip reports from folks that went on the cruise for Mouse Fest 2007, we booked our cruise for Mouse Fest Dec 2008. It looked like such fun. While at the Magic Meet last year, we met some DIS and Tagrel folks who were also booked for that cruise and I even bid on the breakfast with Deb Wills and won. That was the highlight of our cruise. Deb is just the nicest person and we really had a fun time. There are pictures on her blog on all ears. Since we had such fun on the cruise, we booked while onboard for Mouse Fest 2009. Even tho Mouse Fest has been cancelled, we are still going on the cruise.

I will be married 40 years this June. I met my DH just before I turned 16 on a blind date and we married three years later. I have three grown children Howie-38 married two sons. Guenna-35 married one son. Steve-30 has a girlfriend and lives near Orlando. The older two live maybe 15 minutes from DH and I.

We usually post on the DISigns DDA thread. Stephanie and I know ReAnSt (Becky) and I remember someone mentioning she knew PNO4TE (Elin). Over the past few years, some of us DDA folks have met in DC or Baltimore or in WDW. There has been up to 16 or more of us who are able to meet. We also know tink2020 (Jennifer) and are looking forward to finally meeting her and her DH and the twins. We also know Tiggertails from the Mouse Fest Cruise.

We are so looking forward to this cruise. Cannot wait!!!!!!

Hiya welcome. Sounds like you are an experienced cruise person! Glad to have you onboard.

I (Sarah 29) am travelling with my DBF Dan (31) and its his first cruise but my 6th.

 

[gismo1554]

Wow! That's so weird! I can see why you would rather just go to America then!

lol exactly!

 

[gismo1554]

We won't be at Disneyland, we will be in Disney World and now we just booked another Disney Cruise. It leaves, June 13th and I am SOOOOOO excited!

We spent so much time at DL the last 2 weeks. We had so much fun. DH's pass expired yesterday and we are not buying a new one now that we are moving to VA. He has had a pass for ten years, it is so weird to think of him not having one now. :-(

We watched the new celebrate parade yesterday and I did not like it. I thought Parade of Dreams was SOOOOOO much better!

The website is updated too. Sarah I will get the pin stuff this week.

Thanks! No rush on the pin pics just thought they'd look nice on there

 

[gismo1554]

Hello Everyone!

We wanted to say Hello and that we will be crossing with all of you!!!

This time we are hoping that the time is much better on our bodies then the first time in May 07. We were on the Disney Magic.

It will me, DH (rufustee) and DD (six now, will be 7 on the cruise) along with a good friend of mine for twenty years.

I did register on the other website.... If there is anything I need to know now, ie fish extender teams, mini meets, scrapbooking, please PM me so I can stay in the loop.

I will be checking periodically in. This coming week is going to be busy. DD has her standard school testing, DH will be at work too much and I will be holding the fort. Along with my usual chores, I am getting ready to go to Vegas for a week. YEAH!!!! I am just praying that I won't have any snow on the drive down to VEGAS!! Any one there?? Any one want to meet? If you do please PM me.

I am praying to not waking up to tons of snow as the weather man is saying will be getting!

HELLO again to Everyone!!!
Karen and Family

PS We saw MIKE SUPER here in SLC last night!!! We felt a little Disney Magic here in SLC!

Hey welcome aboard. Were you on the Disney TA in MAY? we might have met you - awful with names.

 

[gismo1554]

We went to this too - It was amazing, although you didn't post any of my favorite pieces!!! They are not real flowers - they are glass sculptures at the Botanical Garden! It was a touring art exhibit.

Thanks.

We live just outside of Lancaster, Pa. The sun is shining now and the hail is almost gone.

Heard things did get dicey out there yesterday. Hope everything was fine at your area.

 

[CruzDirectorKaren]

Welcome Aboard!!!

I see you are from SLC - I have family out there that I don't get the chance to visit enough.

Let us know if you ever get out here for a visit, would love to say "Hi"!

Wow, just love Chihuly.

 

[MrsMork]

We are on our way home to Montana. We made it to the home of some friends in NE Idaho before the snow hit. Looks like we will be visiting here until Saturday, if the weather channel is accurate

Our area was fine. The damage happened about 14 miles from my house. There was only two spots on my car that had marks from the hail. It was very scary and the noise was very intense.

Hi Terry and Welcome

Well, winter weather has setteld back in Germany with a vengenceIt is cold (temps hovering right around freezing) with plenty of wind and rain to boot.

Hi Hadley,

I see you are living in Germany. I'll be visiting the Munich area the end of April/beginning of May. Any idea what the weather will be like around that time? I was hoping it would be a little warmer that it is here in Wisconsin! I plan on checking the forecast before we leave - but maybe you can give me some better input.

Also, if you are familiar with the area....is there something I shouldn't miss? Anything that you would say I just HAVE to see while I'm there? I just haven't taken the time to plan this trip out as much as I should have.

We're travelling with my daughter's dance studio. So most of the time will be spent in Salzburg and Vienna. All those activities are planned for including some dance classes for her. But I'll be staying an extra four days in Munich and wanted to explore that area a little more.

Any advice?

How sad to no longer have a passport! I'm so happy to have mine. It makes it so easy to just pop on down to DL for a day or two.

We will be in DL June 6 - 13. Does that overlap with your trips?

I'm not going to get there until the 14th but my mom and sister will be there on the 12 I think.

Let's see... I took 252 pics and Dh took 196. So I must have taken your favorite sculpture!
I have one more to post, perhaps tonight. Everyone will love it!

Hiya

Just to say I know Hadley only just moved to Germany a few months ago but she did loads of research before moving so should be able to help.

Sarah

 

[KellyJeanDVC]

Thanks Sarah!

I've been doing some research myself. There is just so much to do in such a short time! I'm sure a plan will come together though.

 

[Bareacuda]

I think I'll be doing some yard work and paddling alot on our boat: save $$$, get a tan and lose weight. And have a clean green yards
