ROFL! I love the title of this thread!!!

Well I know that Sandra from All Seasons told me that she has our cabin on hold, so once I speak to her tomorrow we will officially be booked!

 

[Mjasp]

We're in also. Booked a category 8, no SPR left wahhhhhhhh

Do you think other people that booked this cruise will post here?

Now you can start keeping track of all of us.

It will be me Joanna, DH Mitch and DD Amanda 14 and DD Samantha 10

Kids are getting older as I type LOL

You're in Terry, as long as its on hold you have 10 days to pay your deposit.

Joanna

2 bouncie people, one for each year LOL

 

[winnyis]

Hi guys... for now Im in too. I have an SPR on hold 5022. Not my first choice but I got a good rate and the 10% and $200 so I really couldnt pass it up.

So far its just Bob and I booked so I only have to pay the $500 deposit and I will add the kids later.


Now I just wish It wasnt 2 years away. We need to have some reunions between now and then.

Ginny

 

[MoranClan]

Hey Everyone..

Called All Seasons today...I couldnt book yet, but they will call me when I can...

We are probably doing a Cat 3 maybe a Cat 2..

Will Be..

Bobby, Cindy, Katie-12, Jessie-11, Bobby Jr.-7

We cant wait...

Even though we hated Cozumel..Oh well..

Bobby

 

[O'BWV]

Bobby - Maybe we all could do the Fury Catamaran (sp?) Excursion in Cozumel that Ginny and her family did. They really liked it I think!


Ginny - Do you want me to add your kids to the list? If so, do you want me to put their names on the list?


Joanna - Do you think I should change the name of the thread? I will if you think it won't draw new cruisers!


Terry - Is it alright that I included your son's names on the list?




-Mary Rose

 

[winnyis]

Mary Rose - I sent you a PM

I would definately do Fury Catamaran again - it was a BLAST

 

[SeaSpray]

I'm kind of looking forward to Cozumel because John and I really didn't get to see it at all this last time because we did the Tulum ruins excursion and went right back to the ship afterwards. The Fury Catamaran sounds like fun.

Mary Rose: You can leave the boys' names on the list for now. I'm going to book with just John and I, and we'll decide later, if the boys want to join us or not. Their ages would be 18 and 15, at cruise time. Yikes! Craig would be 18!!!!!!!!!! LOL

 

[O'BWV]

Ginny - I PM'd you back! I really wanted to do the Fury Catamaran in Cozumel and if I knew you guys were doing it I would have joined you (if you would have had me). We went to Paradise Beach instead and that was really great too, but after two stops at CC (yeah!), I'd be looking for something other than just beach at Cozumel. Glad you enjoyed it, it makes my decision easy then!

Can you believe how many DISers are cruising with us

Take a peek

I invited them over, hopefully they will join us

 

[Buddy Bear]

Ya know! We always wondered if DIS had a "Magical Gathering" or DIS members cruise; well, it looks like we have one now!!

We think it is great that this thread has already been started. This going to be a great cruise.

Jeff, Missy, Catherine, & Sarah

 

[Mjasp]

Buddy Bear...Welcome aboard!!!!!!!!!

I love the pics you have in your sig. Your girls are beautiful. I love the one with the hat on the baby. her eyes are beautiful.

Joanna

 

[O'BWV]

Welcome Jeff & family! I have added you to our cruise list!

Howdy neighbor (we live in Old Bridge)! We had lots of NY/NJ DISers on our 8/28/04!

Welcome, Jeff!! I've enjoyed your pictures in your signature. It's great to know you'll be cruising with us in 2006

P.S. I grew up in Sayreville! I'm somewhat familiar with NB

I booked the 8/19 cruise today without telling my husband. Now I just need to hide the $1000 deposit on our credit card bill and the itinerary when it comes in the mail. We've never been on a DCL cruise. I am hoping that my husband and sons will like cruising. We currently have the August 20, 2005 reposition cruise booked and the Thanksgiving 2005 booked. I hope after the first cruise everyone will agree that more cruises are in our future. We are myself (46), DH41, DS12, and DS9 at time of cruise.

The August cruises work out great for us because our kids don't go back to school until after Labor Day out here. I hoping to spend a few days at WDW afterwards.

I couldn't wait until August 2005 to rebook onboard and get the 10% discount. If the prices go up more than 10% + $200, I'll have made the right decision. Otherwise, I'll rebook on board and cancel this reservation. I think that works?

Welcome Disneycrazy
We start after Labor Day also in NY.

Dori (Elliottfan) is also from Washington and on this cruise. We sailed with her on the 8/28/04 10 day.

 

[winnyis]

Disneycrazy... I am also on the 8/20/05 repo cruise... Hopefully we will get to meet on that one.

Ginny

 

[O'BWV]

Welcome disneycrazzzy!! I have added you and your family to our official list!

Sounds like you have alot of great cruises planned! And lucky you, you'll get to meet Ginny & her family next summer. Ginny's good people!

[DARWIN91]

I am booked !

 

[MECH8T7]

Hi everybody.

I had been waiting for months to book a 7-day cruise for our 2006 March break and, even with early booking, it turned out that it was going to cost an arm and a leg (we'll be five, so we're booking category 4).

So, we've changed our plans to do the 8/19 special itinerary because it was quite a bit cheaper and had the second day at Castaway Cay.

Hopefully, we made the right choice but we will be first time DCL'ers.

Can anyone tell me how hot its going to be down there at that time of year?

Does anyone know anything about Costa Maya (or are most people thinking that the only port of call that matters is Castaway Cay)?

On the days that the ship will be at sea, are there "extra" activities going on aboard the ship to keep passengers entertained?
