Who's Cruising the Wonder? 2/1/09 (4day)

[choco_latae]

Hi everyone. I have a question. Is it to late to be put on the list for the fish extenders? I am traveling with my daughter and her son and I just found out what room we are gonna be in. There is three adults and one child in the room - Shauna ( tazgirl1981) 27 yrs old- Julie (me)51 yrs- Jenny (handicapped daughter) 31 yrs- Chris 3 yrs old and we will be in room # 7000 I hope that helps. Please let me know.

We don't have our cruise documents just yet. Our travel agent emailed me this morning saying she got them Saturday afternoon and will mail them tomorrow.

We've had flurries the last couple of days and it's freezing cold---we can't wait to be in Florida! Even if it's only in the 60's it will be much warmer!

We're heading back to Johns Hopkins tomorrow with Keegan for another CT scan and hoping for an all-clear. He's been having chest pains again which his doctor said could be from the scar tissue on his nerve where the mass was last year. He did have an xray this past Friday and that was clear of any chest infections which is great.

Jadedjojo--great job on the design for the door magnet.

Christy, you can take drinks/snacks into the Buena Vista Theater for movies from deck 9. They do show some movies on the "dumbotron" at the Goofy pool, but they are older ones. They show a lot of Disney cartoons on it during the day. The new releases are usually shown in the Buena Vista Theater and sometimes the real big new releases are shown in the Walt Disney Theater.

Josiah- We give Keegan (11) check out privileges, but we also insist that he has us paged when he checks out and he's only allowed to go to meet us somewhere pre-determined or go to the arcade or sports deck. We don't want him going in any of the decks with staterooms or going with anyone to their stateroom. We had friends with us this past cruise with a friend his age and they were really great with following all our rules. His favorite thing to do onboard is play on the sports deck so that is where he spends a lot of time. Brennan is only 7 and doesn't have check out privileges.

We have early dining and now always do the Beach Blanket Buffet the last day at our leisure. I think they are open until about 8:30, which is a good deal later than we'd have to be at our specific restaurant. We went to the restaurant on our first 2 cruises and it just seemed rushed and the servers didn't seem as perky/friendly as they had been (and we tipped well). You have to take all of your carry-on stuff with you so keep that in mind too. Once you leave your room on debarkation day, your KTTW cards are deactivated.

Adding one more family would not be a problem for us. We are leaving on January 27th for WDW so if anyone is added on after that, we won't know.

Today it went to 17 degrees and it felt warm after the 24 below of last week. So 70 would feel like summer.

 

[jadedjojo]

17 degrees!!! Holy moly!!! And here I was complaining because it was 50 here one day last week . It was 71 here today. Warm weather awaits you soon!

We could try to add one more family. The only reason I hesitate is because I'm trying to make something homemade, and time is running short to complete my project. It could be I get most of 'em done, but I may wind up having something else small for latecomers. Is that ok? It would make a good compromise for me.

Danielle, our checkout rules for the kids would be the same; page me when you check out. I hadn't thought about which decks they can go on, so that's a good idea. Our 8 year old is very responsible, so I know she'll be fine.

Can't wait! Just a few days now!

Send me a PM with all your info again with the names of everyone in your cabin, kids ages, cabin number and email address. I will add you to the list and then email a updated list.

 

[ToodlesRN]

The last updated FE list has been emailed. Since some of us will be leaving soon the list has been closed for latecomers. Let me know if anyone has questions about your delivery dates etc...

 

[tazgirl1981]

Thank you for including us last minute...sorry about the hassle for everyone

I just wanted to ask something, In the email it was saying to deliver our FE gifts on our assigned day...What day is best for us to deliver ours to everyone?

 

[ToodlesRN]

In the email with the spreadsheet has everyones assigned day of delivery and I put your group during the 4th day anytime.

 

[tazgirl1981]

Oh Thanks for the info, I wasnt able to get into my file (must be because I own a mac computer) but thats ok. I was able to get my mom to open it up and print a couple up for us thanks!!

 

[sarahgirl]

Just got my stateroom info today. Boy I can't believe I got it that late. Anyways I got upgraded to a CAT 10 but I'm going to be on Level 1 so I dont know how I feel about that. Anyways I can't wait until the cruise. Only 10 more days to go!

 

[choco_latae]

Oh my gosh, I cant believe its only ten days away.

 

[Josiah]

I will be in Diversions for the Superbowl if the Giants are playing Ill be in Giants garb for my DH mother in law if the Panthers are in well then thats who Ill be in. Otherwise you will know me Ill be the one in the "Pink-Tink" shirt I had someone design for me. I would love to meet ya there. That will be my residence for the first night.

Brush up on your NFL and Superbowl trivia they will be playing lots of games during the game for prizes. They have the wii set up for half time and play many games so there is never a dull moment at Diversions.

Look forward to seeing ya.

Tink:

I'll try to find you in Diversions on Feb. 1; I think I'll wear my #8 Matt Hasselbeck Seattle Seahawk jersey. You won't see many of them around, right?!?

We received our documents today! I can't believe we leave a week from tomorrow. I still haven't thought of what we are packing but I'll probably set some clothes aside for all of us when I get a chance on Sunday. Tomorrow's another busy wrestling day for us. Tonight I get to go chaperone a "double date" with Keegan and some friends. I just hope I don't have to sit through Mall Cop again! Have a nice weekend everyone. For those of you leaving soon, have a safe trip and enjoy WDW!

Are we settled on a meet and greet time/place on embarkation day? I know we talked about 3PM at the drink station/Mickey pool but can't remember if it's set in stone.

I'll be there, I will be wearing my "pink tink" shirt and will have my DH and his parents in tow.

 

[camarks1234]

I can't wait. I have myself and AJ packed so far, at least most of it. I mean, they're summer clothes, we can't wear them here right now anyway, right? LOL.

Count us in¡¡

 

[camarks1234]

we will try to be there as well.

As far as the Superbowl goes, I think I read earlier in the thread it will be on in Diversions? Are kids allowed in there or is it a bar? Just wondering because my boys are superbowl/football CCCRRAAZZYYY! and both teams in it this year are special for different reasons.

 

[romino]

I hope Disney shows the superbowl on the giant screen thats near the pool, but I was thinking that perhaps because the Sailaway party is around 5:00 they will not show it.My children are not that into superbowl so something to distract them is mandatory¡¡¡

Go Cardinals¡¡¡
