OMG!!! I just spent an entire afternoon reading from page 1

....Chatty doesn't cover it!


Hi All

We're Pat and Larry from PA. This is our fourth
DCL cruise (after 2010 EBTA, 2011 WBTA, and 2012 EBPC). We LOVE these longer sailings! It's just us for now, but I fully expect our DD Jess and possibly a friend to join us; she doesn't want to commit this early. My mother and niece also accompanied us on the past two trips, but DM is a bit burnt on DCL (things just don't seem to go well for her). They're going to Alaska with us in Sept., then we'll just have to see.
I don't think I've ever paid 2 deposits for 2 different holidays in 48 hours before
I just did the very same thing this week...so much fun!
As well, for roll call, can you add me? I'm Jenn. Travelling with just me

Got a room on deck 6, #6611
Howdy neighbor! We're in 6612
And as for "Kirkby" I bloody hope not
I still picture Kirby in a sunhat sitting in a chair on the beach at CC and in his (her?) own seat in the WD theater....please, not again

Thank goodness we weren't at their dinner table; I would have had to say something! (and I'm normally a very nice person)
My Secret Mickey on Hawaii cruise didn't gift so I was really disappointed.
That's just rotten. So un-Disney-like.
I had a seriously crappy day at work, and I told Dennis he needs to just let me go ahead and plan this.

Life is too short and the money will be there, somehow. It always is. I lead a basically charmed life, with some crappy work days thrown in to keep me humble and remind me why
we need to take this trip!!!!
Yep. That's our philosophy of life, too (and my work days just seem crappier these days for various reasons). I suggested to Larry that we really examine our finances recently; he just shrugged and said "No, we might not want to book our trips, and we know the money is always there somehow". Love that man!!!

But it's true.
81 weeks until we cruise on the Disney Magic !!!
Oh I forgot how much I liked the countdowns!
So are most people doing second seating? We did first seating last time and we want to hang out with everyone so we are doing 2nd this time maybe we can have cocktails with everyone
We just did second seating on this last cruise and loved it (have always done first on prior cruises). If it's just us, we definitely want to link with others for dining, although DCL's pairings have always been ideal for us (don't know how they do it!).
