September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola!

[EllaEnchanted]

This is what I tell Peg when she asks me to fetch something for her while the dogs have her pinned down under the blankets!





Jackie was never booked on the B2B (nor Peg)
Cheri IS booked on the B2B
Ian & Sukie did not book the B2B (they may be doing WDW before)

those are the ones I know about for sure.


I'm still holding two reservations for 2010 (Baltic and WBTA). Baltic will most likely be switched to another cruise line if we can get a much more attractive rate. And we WILL be sharing that information with everyone in an attempt to have a DIS meet on RCL (or whoever). A campaign was launched to sway Monica from Baltic to EBTA, but she's not going for it...the Baltic ports are her heart's desire. Peg is now booked on the WBTA. I may have some hard decisions to make, but will wait till after THIS cruise before making them. I'm sure $$ will be the deciding factor.

YIKES....time to hit the shower.

Thanks Jackie......so that's us, Kathe, Cheri and maybe Marilyn that are doing the B2B. That's what I wanted to know. Just in case I have to cancel the second week too.

Fortunately my 2010 cruise, although a huge amount of money for me to spend on a cruise, is not until one year and three months after this one. So I'll have time to pay off the B2B and then start on the Christmas one.....or so I'm thinking.....more like really really hoping. I budged out the amount that I would have to pay each month starting in January 09. So that's what I'll work on doing and we'll see how much life gets in the way.

Hi peeps! I'm back from a fah-bu-lous Halloweeny week in the World with my boys! We had the best time AND I got to meet the lovely Monica over a lush Beaches and Cream confection (photos to follow)...

Can't wait to return to WDW and tortolly can't wait to be back on the Magic next September...

Hope everyone's well and I'll catch up with the thread asap...

Welcome back Karen....sounds like you had a blast! That's wonderful. Can't wait for the pictures.

OMG, Deb - WDW at this time of year is fab, dontcha think???! Love, love, love the Food & Wine Festival and I had an awesome time wandering around the World Showcase sampling the goodies... Meeting Monica was a high point. I was nervous - it was my first DISmeet and I feel I lucked out. She was so engaging and such a lovely lady - can't wait to hook up with her again ASAP...

WAY TO GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Tink rules]

For all the Champagne Girls out there.....I was just pink tiara surfing and came up with a few. Let's see which one you all like best.


We can always order the same ones that we had last time. They were very nice for a good price. Here's a refresher of what they look like.

Or try some other types.

Or go for something with a little pink fuzzy fake fur. I like some of these and would tend to go for this type first. Naturally, in the pink color!!!

I think this one looks like our last one but it has the pink fur. I think this would be my first choice.

I like the last one... It's like adding some pink Royal fur to my last one...

I had dinner with a Tortolian Dudette......neener, neener, neener

Cheri says "Hi" to the gang. She goes on her big WDW/Wonder/WDW adventure in just a tad over four weeks and is very excited about it!

Talked to big sister this weekend and answered more cruise questions for her. She's contemplating the dolphin encounter in Tortola...I'm encouraging her..I loved doing it. Don't think I can get her to parasail on CC though.


HEY....will we have to do the crack of dawn immagration thing in St Thomas??

Hi Jackie and Hi to Cheri when you speak with her again too.

Why will we have to do the crack of dawn immagration thing in St Thomas? We don't do it at every port. I haven't done it in a while. Is it just that we do it in St. Thomas? I forget.

 

[ibouncetoo]

I think we have to in St Thomas, because we arrive there from a foriegn port. Tortola being British Virgin Islands and St. Thomas U.S. I wonder why they didn't do the ports in the reverse order? Ah well, that would be a good day for Pajama breakfast in Lumineres!

Thanks for the heads up.....early morning room service coffee.....breakfast afterwards in Lumineres......sounds like a plan. Thanks Jackie.

 

[ibouncetoo]

Well, provided there are no crack of dawn excursions booked. I'm betting Dianne will want to shop or maybe do Coral World. Betting Peg and Paul will do some outrageous water adventure (heaven knows where their significant others will end up)

We are scheduled to arrive at 8AM...maybe the immigration thing won't start till then. Or maybe the feds come out and meet the ship earlier??

ANYBODY KNOW?

Where are all the rest of the Tortolians anyway?

Tell her to pop in occasionally. We want to try and meet up in December.

I am getting terribly confused between cruise threads.
