To all the DIS friends on the 10/13/2001 Disney Magic Cruise

[BeanoC]

Well, we knew it would happen...

We finally got booted from the cruise discussion board thread, so I thought I'd go ahead and start a thread
here to keep our line of communication open.

I will be finishing the video of our cruise tonight, or at least by tomorrow. Expect them in the mail late this week. Again, I hope you enjoy it. It's mostly just clips set to music. Think of it as being a DCL commercial, and you're in it.

happylady, how are you feeling? Sure glad you didn't get that sick on the cruise. Be well!

Is everyone else ready for the holidays? I am still not in a Thanksgiving mood - too soon after a tropical vacation for me to feel like it should be almost Christmas, ya know?

Anyway, keep the posts coming, now that we have a new home!

*Bump* !! Did all of my DIS friends miss this thread???

Lemme bump it back up one time...

 

[happylady]

BeanoC ------ I so glad you started this! I can't wait to see our "10/13 DCL commercial". You are so talented! I'm trying to post some of our pictures to a web page and write a trip report. When done, I'll post to the trip page. I'm not very computer literate, so I'm struggling.

Thank you for your well wishes on my speedy recovery. I haven't been hit by a bout of the flu this bad in years. Luckily, Phil caught a very mild case, and Steven only had a sore throat for a day or two. I'm feeling much better now, not fully recovered, but better.

Well, off to work on the pictures and trip report.

I was waiting for our thread to close. I guess it had to happen some time. I can't wait to see our "DCL commercial"
Glad to hear you are feeling better Happylady!

 

[legs22]

I found you guys!
I knew our time was limited on the cruise board, but I'm happy we have a new home.

Beano- Do you have my address to mail the video to? I hope there's no conga commercial in the video!

Happylady- glad you're feeling better! We are so lucky this hurricane missed us!
Did you hear that the Wonder is heading to South Carolina?

I was thinking of going on the western in June 2003, right after DD gets out of school. I've had enough of the Oct/Nov storms.

 

[happylady]

This board is so active, this was already on page 4.

Legs22 - My DS asked when we are going again. He loved it (and so did we). Haven't even begun to think about next time...had to pay this time off first.

 

[Denine]

Hi all. I am bumping this back to the first page. I can't believe how many threads there are on this board.

 

[BeanoC]

Wow - I am making this post within a few hours of Denine's, and the thread is already on page 4 !

I finished my video last night... who'd a thunk it would take so long to make a 19 minute video!

I will be making VHS copies tonight and putting them in the mail tomorrow and thursday. If you have a DVD player capable of playing Video-CD format, I can send you a copy on disc as well... let me know (Not all DVD players will play back the VideoCD format, so check your instruction manual.)

It's entirely set to music, without any of our blabbing included

Just 5 songs to put you in the mood to cruise again... ENJOY !!

Boy, it's tough to keep this thread active... I just found it on page 9!

WDWGoose - I booked a Disney Magic cruise for Oct. 2002, cat. 3. Guess what I got?
Stateroom #8102 !! It'll take me that long to pay for it though! DW doesn't know I booked a cat. 3,
hope I can keep it from her until we board!

Videos went out in today's mail to:

[legs22]

I can't wait to see the video!

At least you know what your room looks like and you know you're gonna love it!

I'm looking at a Cat 12 for June 2003 and hoping for a free upgrade at cruise time. Waiting for my price quote from DU.

 

[Denine]

Wow! I found you on page 13, I think. I can't wait for the video to get here. Beano, you have a great cabin picked out.

 

[Denine]

bump.

 

[legs22]

Beano-

AWESOME video!!!!!!!!

I LOVE it!

I got to relive the cruise all over again. It gave me goosebumps. I want to go again, right now! Molly saw Castaway Cay and said "Look, it's paradise!"
I'm looking at May 2003 for the western cruise but I feel like I should go in Oct. 2002 with Beano because I've got to have a video of the western cruise too. It would be fun if we could all cruise together again. Many thanks to you, Beano, for this wonderful momento.

Hey legs!!!

SO glad you like the video - of course, I think you're in it more than anyone else, so...

I'm glad you got it - our Post Office was closed for a while because of - guess what - an anthrax scare

Well I guess everyone else will get theirs shortly then.

flyingcircus, where are you??? I have a video all ready to send you but I don't have your address!
You too, Firefighter Mickey!

Anyone else from our cruise that I missed, let me know and I can send you one if you like. So far they have been sent to:

legs22
happylady
paulcrsb
denine
WDWGoose


With a copy reserved for flyingcircus!


Plenty more where that came from if 'ya want!

[Denine]

I haven't gotten the video yet!!

Hopefully it will arrive soon!!!

 

[happylady]

Just got home from work and found a beautiful little box on my table from California!! I immediately riped it open and put the tape in our VCR.

All we can say is FANTASTIC !! We were so excited to watch and relive the cruise.

Thank you so much, Ben, for all the hard work on the tape. (And to Renee, for tolerating your passion). We will cherish it forever and show it to everyone that visits.

 

[Denine]

Absolutely fantastic!!!
I want to go again now!
We are trying to persuade another couple to go with us in October. We are going to show this video to them next month when they come over. How can they say no after watching the video?
Thanks for a wonderful job and a wonderful keepsake!

 

[BeanoC]

Wow...

I can't tell you how good it makes me feel to see this kind of response from you guys!
I am SO glad you are enjoying the video so much.

Does anyone know where I can contact flyingcircus?? I'd love to send her a copy, but don't have her address. I sent her a pm on this website, but she hasn't responded to it.
Same for FirefighterMickey. I have a copy for him too.

Ok, WDWGoose and paulcrsb... what's your opinion of the video??


ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
