[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone, where are Mary and Mark? I'm not keeping up too well. Are they on a trip?

Hi! We're here - just bogged down wth work and such. In fact I'm eating at my desk today so managed to have some DIS time!

Good morning everyone, where are Mary and Mark? I'm not keeping up too well. Are they on a trip? Got to keep this post alive. Hey Georgie, post over here once in a while, you too Linda. I asked DVC the other when the next installment of the newsletter will be available and they suggested that it would come out NEXT month. Man , I need my fix before then. Inquiring minds want to know. Don't forget everybody, get Mary your picture. I'm trying to get a picture of the other family going with us to display.

Okay, I'll do my share and bump this baby up to the top!!!!! Just so busy with the 14 day I can't even think about getting ready for this one yet! But I am excited for our first member homecoming! You would think we would have taken part since we have owned since 94, but it's hard when you are all the way in the west. Can't get back to WDW as often as others, darn!

Linda

P. S. If I owe anyone money for anything I haven't signed up for yet, but of course will want to participate in, let me know!!!

Thought I would pop in and say hello again. It's been a fun trip so far - no cruise but it is raining today in Southern Calif. Went and spent a few days down in the desert and hiked a few canyons - can't believe all the walking I get to do here - no snow to slush thru. Okay enough bragging - just wanted to say hello to my fellow cruisers and let them know that I am not lost --- yet!

 

[sanddune]

Mary I'm glad your trip is going well. Enjoy the nice weather. I can't wait for spring!! All of or snow has melted. So it's almost safe to come home. Talk to ya later.

Let's see, if I bump this up, then it causes the Aug repo cruise to go down. What a deal . Can I get them to page two? Hi everybody. Got my ressies finalized for the Wilderness villas. I will be there three days before and three days after.

Okay, I'll do my share too. Nothing I'd like better than to put those eastbounders on page 2!

hey all again - it's 1:20 am and I can't sleep. Have been getting ready for a yard sale tomorrow and I'll be pooped and crazy tomorrow afternoon.

What is this that everyone is referring to - Page 2? - what did I miss somewhere?? sorry for not knowing

HAPPY PRESIDENTS' DAY WEEKEND - Please stay safe and happy

Kay, When you go to cruise meets, there is a list of all of the threads that you can go to. THat list , however, is only the first page. If nobody posts on a thread , it moves down the list (they are in chronological order). When other threads get moved up, eventually , some of the threads move onto page two. That 's the page numbers at the bottom, you know.
We were just having some fun with the fools thread hoping that it might end up on page two. Not likely as there are so people posting that it keeps them always at the top of page 1.
We don't have that many dissers on the westbound,( i can't for the life of me figure out why).

I am so envious of everyone going on the repo cruises - how awesome! I wish I was in a place with my job where I could take that much time off work at once.

I can't wait for our next installment from DVC - I am anxious to hear more about the cruise and the special offerings. Thanks to everyone here we are leaving our dinner seating as early - we'll just deal with it!

 

[sanddune]

Dan love your choice of hotel.We need to book a hotel yet. Give us feed back on where everyone is going to stay. One for WL. Anyone else? Thanks !

 

[CarolA]

WOW! I had not noticed we were under 200 days! Time is really flying.

We have ressies for three days after at VWL too! Haven't made one for the Saturday before yet. Still thinking it over. I don't think we'll be going to the Saturday meet though. We plan to take in Cirque since my sister has been to Orlando at least 3-4 times and never seen it.

 

[goofy4dvc]

We have ressies at BCV for the night before and two nights after the cruise. Now that we're within the 7 month window I might change to somewhere else. I really like the hustle and bustle of the boardwalk area, but after the cruise, I might want the peace and solitude of VWL. That's what I love about my DVC -- resorts to fit all my moods!

 

[Diana Lyn]

We're staying 3 days after at VWL too! Must be the popular place this time around. Haven't booked Saturday yet, but I'm thinking ASMo, because I know my DDs will love the theming there.

 

[krdisneybound]

we had ressie at VWL before and after cruise but canceled them and made new ressie at All Star. At $49 per night, it beats using 30+ points per night this time. Trying to save my points for another cruise in 2006.
Bill, thanks for explanation for page 2 reference.
Beautiful weekend in South Florida. Couldn't be better.

Hi Mary, How have you been?
We got the villas on the first day available. They said then that there were 25 available two bedrooms then. Lots of space.
We will be going down on Continental airlines, unless something comes up with our ressies. We got some really good prices a few months ago.
ATA , however, has had so much trouble that we ended up cancelling both legs of our air trip on the relocation cruise. They kept changing or cancelling the flights. We got full refunds because they caused the problems with our tickets. It looks real bad for ATA, ex. they now only have one flight to Orlando(a main city) on Friday and that is at 8AM. I can't see them surviving. It makes me sad as I just joined Ambassadair also.
Do you have your air travel set? Will you be going through Indy? Kind of cool that so many of us may be at the Villas.
Bill
You"re welcome Kay, push them to page two.

 

[krdisneybound]

ok - I have the hang of it now. LOL

 

[WDWLVR]

Hi Kay - I sent you a pm!

 

[WDWLVR]

H Mary - glad you are having a good time. Missed cruise chat last night but will try my best to make DVC chat Sunday night.

update for you...
Grandma Lightbulb starts her chemo on Tuesday. I'm not 100% clear on the cycles of it, but from what it sounds like, it will take her right up until cruise time, if not a bit after. We haven't talked about if she's still planning on going or not....she's got time to think about that later.
Say a prayer that she can go. I think by then, she'll NEED it!
