Just going to peak over on the 9/19/09 thread and see how they're doing with their ressies tonight. Kathe should be there booking now and a few others that are on this cruise too.

If so, let me know who your sister is so you are not counted twice. Is your sister-in-law a DISer? Is there any other information about your group that you would like to add? Check the activities at the top and if you are interested in any use the registration link so that up-to-date lists are available to organizers. If you have any questions--ASK AWAY!!

I did the registration- thanks for pointing it out to me!
- My SIL is not a DISer
- My sister is dr&momto2boys and I am not listed under her so no double counts.
- we have main dining

I haven't run across this information yet, so Questions!!!!
1. What sorts of activities are on the computers in the Oceaneer's Lab? Do the kids have internet access from those computers (I'm guessing not, but DS wants to know if he will be able to access YouTube.)
2. How old does one have to be to do the parasailing at Castaway Cay with an adult? alone?

Thanks!
Kristin

Maybe one of the others will know. I don't think they have internet access. I can't remember what the deal was when we took our grandson on the Wonder.

The age for parasailing is 8 years old and up. Children under 13 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.

For the parasailing, the 'alone' part will depend entirely on the child's weight and the wind conditions that day. It will be up to the captain of your boat to determine if a child has to go tandem with someone. So if you were a scrawny 14 year old, while you could go on the boat without a parent, you could possible have to go 'up' with a stranger!

Hi Deb! I got all the excursions I wanted and a Palo brunch

I tried to come back here when I was done but the boards were down and I was very tired so went to bed! Now all I have to do is be ready to stand in line at guest services for the margarita and martini tastings (Sara chose these over tea

). I'm having tea with you this cruise so I'm happy

Thanks for thinking of us last night.

ibouncetoo · 06-21-2009, 09:24 AM

Kaz, loved your A-Z report. What an amazing place!

ibouncetoo · 06-21-2009, 09:33 AM

Just decided I'm going to buy a Disney gift card or Disney dollars with my Disney Visa before the trip! I have a weeks worth of dining at WDW to pay for and this way I can earn the rewards NOW for use on the trip!

Gotta remember to make this suggestion to Peg when she's back from NC.

I did get her booked for Cape May on the 19th.

We, for the first time, will be doing WDW before the cruise rather than after.

We will be checking into SSR in a 1 bedroom on Sept. 5th for our 1st DVC stay. Looking forward to going to all the Parks but taking a slower approach this time.

We will be at SSR from the 7th. I won't be rushing around either!!!

ibouncetoo · 06-21-2009, 10:48 AM

Hey you SSR folks, if you haven't tried it, I really enjoyed my meal at the Turf Club on the patio!

We stayed there in Dec 07 and had a signature dinner planned one night, but one of my friends wasn't feeling well, so we cancelled the ADR and the other three of us just went to Turf Club becasue it was convenient. What a plesant surprise.

Don't remember exactly what we had...there were crab cakes, onion rings, calamari, burgers and spare ribs involved however.

In my ongoing effort to avoid housework, I popped on the Hoops & Yoyo sight. Their "June" message just cracked me up.

So for all you garage sale junkies:

Hi All!
Thanks to my DMIL for introducing me to the site and for all the info about the intinerary for the cruise (We are starting to get the priate costumes ready). DH and I were engaged on the Wonder in September 2006 and will be cruising again for Totrola (WOO HOO!!!), this time bringing along our 9 month old daughter. Any suggestions from families who have cruised with children under or around age 1 would be greatly appreciated. We found out about Babies Travel Lite to help out with stocking the room with all of her diapers/food/bath & sun needs etc for less to haul down. Ideas and suggestions greatly appreicated!!
