Sept 4-8 2005 Wonder S.S. Member Cruise! Part 2

[WDWLVR]

Hi on the last member cruise someone said they gave discounts for another cruise which I heard was a great deal.

My question is did they offer anything for add-ons on the ship?

I was on the 2002 member cruise but I don;t remember much from it.

Michele

They had two offers for add-ons. The first was a crystal piece if you bought 100 or more points. The second offer was $10 per point Magical Beginnings if you bought 100 or more points at Beach Club.

Two weeks from right now we should be on the road for the 2nd day. Leaving TN and heading down to WDW! So close!

Today's fluffy question of the day.......

What other areas of the DIS do you read/post at?


Thanks to Mary (wdwlvr) for the idea.





I usually check in daily at the DVC & DVC Community board to see what, if anything is going on over there. I enjoy reading some of the trip reports/posts specific to Hilton Head - because it's so different from WDW. It also keeps me in touch with DVC as sometimes the DIS is the place to find out the scoop.

Lately, I've spent a lot of time reading on the main cruise board. I wonder why that is?

I browse the CB and post occassionally. I always stay away from the cat fight threads, though.

If we have a trip coming up, I'll venture over the the theme park and restaurant boards. I stop by on the budget, family and scrapbooking boards from time to time.

So, I guess if I think about it, I'm really all over.

Today's fluffy question of the day.......

I read the DCL boards every day and have for a couple of years now.

I read the DVC boards at least a couple of times a week. More when there is something going on (like initial talk about a DVC event).

I skim the Community Board daily. The only thing I post regularly over there is the weekely Nascar thread.

Right before our trips to WDW I may go over to the theme park boards as well.

I definately consider the DCL boards my home base here on the DIS.

Cindy---better add $200 for scrapbooking supplies!!

Ahh, but this isn't part of the cruise budget. That's just a downfall of trying to buy only $20 in the scrapbooking store.

Note to self, bring cash to SB store to control expenses.

I cannot believe we are so close. :thewave: :thewave:

We leave two weeks from tomorrow. Limo will be here at 5:30 a.m.

So, has everyone that received their docs, filled them out? I have everything done but 3 of the Bahamas Immigration forms. I'll fill those out today and get Chris to sign his stuff and I'll pack those in my suitcase too, with our passports (and Madison's BC, just in case her passport doesn't make it here before we leave).

Amy, some of us are still waiting Still no docs for us .

Gary did pick up our certified copies of our birth certificates. That's good news since the ones we originally planned to use could have caused us problems. you knnow - those cute ones with the footprints.

Bobbi, how awesome. We'll see you there.

We'll be leaving 2 weeks from tomorrow too. I figure that we'll just leave whenever we have everything together. It would be nice to leave first thing in the morning, but I know that it just won't work out that way for us (it never does). We're just planning on hanging out at Stormalong Bay anyway, so whenever we get there is just fine with me.

So sorry that you don't have your docs yet Cindy!! I'm sure that they will be there soon!!! Then, you'll be madly going through everything - reading, filling out forms, obsessing. Just like me!!!

I received my documents Via UPS yesterday! I actually received 2 packages - one was the DVC cruise documents and the other was from Paper Mate! I was a grand prize winner and the grand prize was an Apple 4GB iPod mini!! I was excited to get the cruise documents but the iPod mini was a bonus!! Annmarie

How exciting for you, Annmarie! You will LOVE your iPod. I have one and especially like to download Disney podcasts. DH and I left town yesterday to visit family and no docs had arrived yet. My mother-in-law is checking the house for me, so she'll bring them in if they do arrive.

Last night I had a dream that I was working in the yard, and looked up on the porch and there they were! So sad to wake up.....

Thanks to Mary (wdwlvr) for the idea.

I'm pretty much all over. I usually only post on the CB on the ATWT thread and then once in a while on something I really feel the need to contribute. Otherwise, I love reading the Budget Board for codes for online shopping. I love the Scrapbooking boards, because somehow I just can't say no to those swaps. And I frequent the Wedding Boards, because I love to share my wonderful experience with Fairy Tale Weddings. And then theres the Theme Parks, Resorts, Restaurants....yea...I'm pretty much everywhere!

Quick question...My sister would like to go to church (Mary, Queen of the Universe) on Sunday morning and asked if there will be time before we head to the port. Does anyone know when services are held there and whether or not there will be time to attend?

 

[Mikem861]

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!! :thewave: 2 weeks from now we will be waking up at SOG at WDW!! We are leaing on the 31st driving down, and going to Circue de Soleil on Thurs night!! Thanks to everyone who shared their info on how they buy more points!! I don't know if we are going to add any right now or not, but it is always nice to be prepared

Sure hope to get my docs today - I was very patient yesterday but I think the little brown truck didn't come to my sub for the very first time - waiting my door for my delivery!!!

I think knowing that so many other people have already received them makes it even harder to wait.

Let's hope for today

Mary - there is a 7:30 Mass that Mark and I will be attending. Should still give you plenty of time to get to the port.

When I have a cruise planned I spend alot of time at the Cruise board otherwise I just scan it every few days. I read the CB board daily and check out the DVC board a couple times a week. I have never opened the Theme Parks site - guess I should go check out what's going on there, cuz I don't spend enough time on the DIS boards as it is

Mike - I never answered yesterday on this. We did our add on through Disney since they had a great offer on Vero.

If however you want to look into the resale market I can put you in touch with someone who is going to be on the cruise with us. She's great. I think Gail and John bought from her.

Receiving the docs makes it more real and it's just a reminder that the cruise date is fast approaching.

We went on a cruise in Feb 2004 that we booked 6 days before. I had to pick my docs up at the terminal. That was actually very easy, I walked up to the desk, gave my name, the lady there opened the docs, pulled out what I had to fill out, gave me the rest of the docs. As I was filling them out she was putting everything else together and I was on my way. It was nice not to have to keep track of cruise docs before hand and not to worry that I was forgetting them. The oddest part was when we dropped off the luggage at the curb, I still needed luggage tags and I didn't know my cabin #. I asked the guy there, gave him my name, he checked his clip board then called to another guy who came out with 2 dogs! They sniffed all around my luggage and went on. He explained that I was flagged because of booking so close to the cruise date. Cute dogs

They had two offers for add-ons. The first was a crystal piece if you bought 100 or more points. The second offer was $10 per point Magical Beginnings if you bought 100 or more points at Beach Club.

We added on during the last member cruise. Or I should say my DH added on. I don't think he could resist the DVC crystal piece. (It does look really nice on it's lighted base.) The girls and I were sleeping in our cabin and DH decided to go for a little walk and "maybe" talk to the sales reps. When I woke up in the morning we had another 100 points.

I bet your docs will come today!

Are you flying out of Midway or O'Hare? Our limo is picking us up next Saturday at 6:30am!

It is getting so close! I guess I better drag the suitcases out this weekend.

Count me in on the scrap exchange. My father just gave me boxes of my grandmother's old photos. He want's me to make 2 albums. I was planning on going to the scrap book store this week so the timing works out for me.

Hopefully I will get my docs today.
