[Arizona Rita]

Hey,
We are also flying out Friday night.
BadTink, thanks for all the great info, hopefully we will run into you. Will you be wearing anything to identify you?
Safe journey everyone and we will see you on the Magic!

BadPink Tink-Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For all your help in planning for Dublin. We will look for you. We will be the frenzied family with a red stroller and hopefully a baby in it!!!!

As excited as I am for this trip, I will miss planning with everyone. It's been fun. We fly out tomorrow from California. Safe travels everyone!

In addition Mickey and Minnie just called my kids (Thankfully I answered). Both were so happy. The baby's smile hearing Mickey's voice was priceless.

I hope you all have an amazing cruise. I have this one booked for 2017, and would love to see personal navigators from your sailing. Magical Cruising!

 

[BadPinkTink]

@wajones2 is there a cruise meets thread for that yet? Ive been helping everyone here with their Dublin port day and its been great fun so I would love to help out the 2017 cruisers too

 

[wajones2]

@BadPinkTink I wasn't able to find a cruise meet thread for it...maybe I should start one. I have been looking at the Port Adventures and love the planning as much as the cruise itself. I'll start the tread and post back here.

@BadPinkTink ok it's official the 2017 meet thread has been created and can be found at http://www.disboards.com/threads/di...ight-british-isles-cruise-from-dover.3515878/

ok how do you get from Ashford train station to the port? clearly i am crazy sitting in Paris right now trying to figure this out! We did London for 6 days, just gorgeous weather! In Paris now the last 2 days have been rainy and cold! I can't believe we will be getting on the Magic Sunday!!

Hey everyone! Meet and greet 2:30-3:30 in OGills tomorrow. Many of us are also in another group that made the arrangements so there will be some folks you "know" from here already and a chance to meet some new friends. Please come by so we can put names and faces together!

We got to Dover on Friday. No issues with the flight over. Churchill Guest House is wonderful. Coastal Cars was a perfect choice for our transportation.

Dover is a nice town. We found a nice Italian place for lunch yesterday. Tonight we are meeting folks at Cullins Yard.

We went up to Dover Castle today. You can spend all day there.

Can't wait to sail though!

See you real soon!

Sea Day on the Magic. Weather has been nice. Going to enjoy resting before Formal Night tonight. We had a great time in Dover. Loved the Castle.

We are open to suggestions on what to do in Glasgow...we are taking the DCL transport to the city and then we will be on our own. Please help!

There are a number of free Museums Riverside, Kelvingrove Art Galleries, Lighthouse, House of an Art Lover, Historical buildings and architecture, Glasgow Cathedral, Provens Lordship (oldest house in Glasgiw) the tenement flat (how Glaswegiens lived at the turn of the century) City Chambers.

Afternoon Tea at Blythswood Hotel, Marco Pierre White's restaurant

Fabulous shopping (Buchannan Street, Argyle Street, Italian Centre)

The weather here has been fabulous recently (unseasonably) there are nice parks Kelvingrove, Botanic Gardens, Glasgow Green, Bellahouston.

Nice - thanks for the tips! I love to go into grocery stores in other places and see what's the same and what's different. Especially in a big city or a small village - both are so different than where we live (medium).

Tunnocks Tea Cakes, Caramel Wafers, Tablet, Macaroon Bars

 

[disneydafty]

We haven't decided yet whether we'll get internet on the ship but you can bet we'll try to find some in the ports if we don't get minutes onboard.

You don't need Internet the Disney Cruise Aoo allows you to chat to people by their stateroom numbers just have to agree a meet and set each other up then away you go, and it's free

 

[disneydafty]

Folks, can someone please
Let me know when you leave Greenock, the Port Authority says 5pm but I have been told 7pm. Does anyone know?
