AHOY, MATEYS!!!
Thanks for joining me on my FIRST cruise ptr, for our FIRST Disney cruise, not to mention our FIRST cruise ever! I'll be needing any tips and advice you can give!
so, let's dive right in, shall we? (see what I did there? oh, the comedy begins already!)Thanks for joining me on my FIRST cruise ptr, for our FIRST Disney cruise, not to mention our FIRST cruise ever! I'll be needing any tips and advice you can give!
On this trip, will be my crazy family and awesome friends of ours, who've decided they are brave enough to take a cruise with us! I haven't asked yet if I can post pictures of them, so for now, I'll just introduce us....
this is my DH, rich....
he likes Disney but wasn't too sure about a cruise. luckily, his boss loves Disney, has cruised and talked it up, plus having our friends go meant he had another guy to hang with, so he's agreed, even if it was somewhat reluctantly...
this is our oldest, Hannah.
she'll have just turned 8 when we cruise. she's most excited about the "kid's area" of the ship. she likes to remind me that no grown-ups are allowed there. I don't think she realizes that i'm more then fine with that information!
our youngest is Madison...
Maddie will be almost 6 when we leave. i'm not sure what she's most excited about. probably everything! she loves watching the planning dvd we got and seems to like it all.
and, your entertainment director (is that a thing on the ship? clearly I haven't watched enough episodes of love boat!) for this ptr, will be me, Lori...
i've wanted to try a cruise for awhile, and what better way to get our feet wet then to do a cruise and get some Disney too? i think i'm most excited about castaway cay....or maybe the pirate party....or maybe the Halloween party...or maybe the adult pool....
the family we're traveling with is awesome! we've been friends for quite a few years. i'm not actually sure how I convinced them that vacationing with us would be a good idea, but they've paid their deposit so now they're stuck with us! they are a family of 5.....Mrs. X, mom, is one of my best friends and a wonderful person! Mr. X, dad, and my DH get along so well! we have so much fun hanging out with them. their oldest, Z, is 17. their middle child, also known as "Hannah's future husband" but we'll call him C, will be almost 8, and their youngest, L, will be about 5 1/2 and is Madison's BFF--they'll be getting into some mischief together, i'm sure!
actually, Mrs. X and I are taking all the girls to see Cinderella, so I guess i'm going to need to jump ship (look, I warned you about the awesome comedy....) for now and add some more details later. Thanks for reading so far!
