Hi all! Just checking in. Jan, great job.

Thanks for keeping the thread up for us. Don't mind if you add our ages. Harry and I will both be 57. Our room number is 2509 but I am hoping the upgrade fairy will surprise us with a porthole. We have second seating for dinner. We are spending a few days at WDW pre cruise. I have not started planning the WDW part yet as I am hoping for some good deals to come out.

Hi Donna.

granmaz · 01-06-2009, 12:28 PM

I think there are going to be a few of us at WDW before the cruise.

A whole WEEK for me!

And for those of you who may be booking on property and buying tickets, you will most likely have free dining!

Yes, we'll be there for 3 nights before the cruise, hopefully at BWV/BCV - I'm going to try and switch at the 7 month window. I will also be there with my DD for 7 nights after the cruise, this time at VWL - that's a 17 day vacation and I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pfishgirl · 01-06-2009, 03:23 PM

We are flying to Orlando on Sept 11th after the kiddies are done with school so we won't be doing WDW before the cruise, but we may get a chance for a half day WDW visit on Saturday after the cruise..

Sounds great!!! I haven't booked anywhere yet, but we will get into SSR no problem. Like you though I would like to stay at BCV/BWV at some point, either before or after.

We're using up some points at the start of the cruise so, at the mo, have 1 night at SSR and 2 nights at VWL booked.

I stayed at BWV with my sons last October and loved it so would really like to change to there for at least the first 3 nights...

Fingers crossed. Otherwise I'll switch to all nights at SSR - DH hasn't stayed there yet and IMO the rooms are lovely...

ibouncetoo · 01-06-2009, 08:42 PM

I enjoyed staying at SSR last year....four girls in a 2 bedroom villa...lots of fun. I think my host for THIS trip is leaning towards VWL, which will make me happy as I loved staying at WL. Wouldn't turn up my nose at ANY of them though.

Just would like someplace other than SSR as I've 'been there, done that'.

We have requested late dining and will be celebrating our honeymoon on this cruise

Here is a current photo from our Dec WDW trip at AKL:

Picture is gone. Any idea what happened?

JLSE50 · 01-06-2009, 10:05 PM

I have read all the posts to this point and entered the significant data on post one......I think.......

So, please check your listing and be sure I have the appropriate and correct information there. If not, post again with corrections or additions.

THANKS

Jan

You are the first to specify dinner seating so I added that. Perhaps others will want to do that also.

I have put an asterisk in front of the entry of all the posters so far. That way we can easily see who we have and have not heard from.

To everyone: check to see what info is included in post one for others and that your entry is right. Let me know if you have additions or changes.

Also--any photos you want included in post two--post them here for me to move.

THANKS!

Jan

Thanks Jan for doing all this for everyone. If no one else is putting ages, you don't need to put ours, but I don't mind either way.
We are also going to stay at WDW either pre-or-post cruise, haven't decided yet. We are not DVC members, but will probably stay at the Poly or possibly Shades Of Green. It was so great last Dec. to be able to go to the cruise desk at the Poly and get all of the check-in done before we left to go to the Terminal.
For those interested in the movie "Marley and Me"....my DH and I saw it today. We are major pet lovers, and laughed so hard during most of the movie. We could relate to Marley's "antics"

I have to admit that I left the movie before it was over, knowing how it ended.

I was a whimp.

Keep in mind that free dining will most likely be going on then, and I don't think it is available if you stay at Shades Of Green (I think I just read that the other day). Just something to check out.
