Sept 25, 2004 - someone's gotta be coming!

[dinnysuw]

Jill,
I think my biggest worry is the flight-bad weather delays and such and then trying desperately to get to the boat. I am so glad we are flying in the day before. We are on Spirit and had already booked. then i got an email from them about ther "syber deals" i ended up switching our returning flight (we were leaving at 11:45 am on return day) to a later flight (7:40 pm we'll rent a car and cruise orlando maybe do KSS) and ended up saving 288.88! no penalties for switching nothing. we get a travel voucher from them for future travel to anywhere they fly. My parents are moving to florida (building a home in Palm Coast) so we can certainly use it again! I have already told my parents about the Florida resident discount on cruises with Disney and my mom is already excited about next year! I just have to figure out how I should book it to get the discount, if and when it is offered. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Dinnysuw

We received our docs today.

DINNYSUW is doing the DOCS dance!! Yipee!!!! Haven't even read it all but thought I'd pass it on! I never knew what people meant when they said they did the DOC dance-but when the doorbell rang and this little box was handed to me-I didn't know what it was. Then I looked at return address and I jumped up and screamed and did a little cha cha dance!! Hope yours will come very soon as well-I saw Mike got his!

Darcy-Who did you book through?

Still waiting, still got plenty of time for them to come, but still waiting!!!!!!

Congrats on the docs....it makes it all seem oh so time for vacation now, huh?

 

[dinnysuw]

Jill, I booked right through DCL in April of this year. I guess I was expecting alot of paperwork to fill out. It looks like it is just one piece for each of us. the rest of the docs are in a little booklet for each traveler. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Disney dreaming!

To All 9/25/04 Magic Cruisers who are also on the Eastern Panama Crossing set sail on 8/20/05, IT's Exactly a Year Later til me meet "again". 365 days and counting.

I passed a major milestone today. I purchased my annual Vacation Paperback Novel. This year's selection is "Cruising for Murder" by Susan Sussman.

Just the thing to sit unopened in my lap while I sit on the verandah and stare at the Big Water.

 

[kcashner]

Sink...you are so right! I even talked to Disney today, and the date didn't hit my brain. See you in a year!!!!

BTW, they were great with the answer to a quick question for a homework problem!

I haven't given too much thought to the cruise next year yet...but as soon as this trip is done, I be one track minded on that one, and my DH will again think I am insane.

kcashner, I assume you've been on a Western before...any good thoughts on where to get good conch fritters in Key West???

Doing the cruise Doc dance.

Our nice "neighbor" called us today and inquired whether we were waiting for a package from Disney cruise lines. To my dismay/surprise, our cruise doc's were sent to a wrong address. A mistake was made by Disney Cruise Lines (since the address on all cruise doc's were wrong). Our address is 747 and Disney sent it to 474. I emailed my TA demanding an apology from Disney. This is our fifth sailing and don't understand why they would have a wrong address for us.

No wonder we did not received the Acapulco overnight information (sorry to bring this up).

Anyhow, Cruise Doc DANCE.

Darcy:

I did received the list. But, I don't have word perfect, so I'm unable to read it. Furthermore, I don't have the "conversion" to MS word.

 

[AprilN]

Doin' the doc dance here in California! Our docs were waiting in our mailbox on Friday evening, sent from our TA (Costco). We definitely weren't expecting them this soon!

I can't believe it's just over a month away. Wheeee!

 

[dinnysuw]

SINK check your email again-sent it a differently. Hope this works.

Hi September 25th cruisers!

I'm AprilN's husband, and we are looking to do an independent snorkel excursion when we arrive in Cozumel. We've settled on Papa Hog's, which offers small tours traveling to two to three reef areas for $50 a person. They have an informative web page that also has up-to-the minute reviews from folks who have been on the excursions. It sounds great, with one hitch: if they don't get at least two more people to sign up for our afternoon tour, it won't happen! So, we figured we would see if anyone else on DIS was interested in going on this three-hour excursion in the afternoon (leaving around 1).



See you there,
Walt

 

[dinnysuw]

Sorry Walt, we are booked for the dolphin encounter through an independent excursion. good luck!

Got our docs today for this cruise! I hope they get the docs for the 10/02 sent soon! I was hoping they would come together, but needless to say, this tides me over for a while now!

Darcy, I STILL can't open the document. If it isn't too much trouble could you just copy and paste it to either the PM here or just to email with no attachment? THANKS!

 

[NCRedding]

We got docs today also. I think I am finally getting excited about the trip. I'm trying to figure out excursions that will still let me get to all the Hard Rock cafes for pins--my new souvenir. 30 days from today is when we fly out!!

 

[kcashner]

DCL just opened cat 11 to more bookings....interesting, isn't it? No docs here yet......
