FreewayFortune Posted July 12, 2008 #77 Share Posted July 12, 2008 So Denice does the fact that you're on WW mean that you won't be quite so enthusiastic about the cookies???:) :) :) When we used to drive to Florida everytime we made it to the welcome centre the sky would open up and it would start to pour. Hopefully the weather will clear up and be fantastic for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning bolt Posted July 12, 2008 #80 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I just got back from Fl last week after sailing on the Disney Wonder. I saw the Mariner at the pier when we got on the Wonder. I'll be sailing on the Mariner on Oct 19th. This will be my first time on RCL. I usually stick with Celebrity, but wanted to go on this cruise with a bunch of stampers and scrappers. There are over 100 of us going. I know I'll be reading your updates every day.:) Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to following your cruise and can't wait to see exactly what the dinner line-up is. We'll be sailing this cruise in Sept. Have a wonderful trip!

celebrity Posted July 13, 2008 #90 Share Posted July 13, 2008 D..are you at the pier yet? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzboss1 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #91 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Good morning everyone!!!!! Today is the DAY!!!! No Cat, I am not at the pier yet..though if I could have convinced the family to get up at 4am to get there already, you know I would be there!! I slept poorly last night, but I expected that. I was wired with excitement!! I can't get to get to the pier and feel that excitement build even more. We plan on leaving here at 9:45...it is one minute down the road. Once we get on (usually about 12/12:30) I will follow my usual plan....drop off the carry ons in the room, go to the Windjammer to eat, go back to the room and disinfect it, then go check out where we are in the dining room, go meet the conceriege and have him make Chops and Portofino reservations and see if I can't get him to email me the week's menus, then go make spa appointments (I like to make the spa appointments myself). Then do a quick stroll through all the floors, then it should be time to head to the Schnooer Bar for our pre Meet and Mingle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzboss1 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #92 Share Posted July 13, 2008 D..are you at the pier yet? LOL I think you need to book the Freedom for July 12th 2009 (its out of Fla)...then we can sail together again!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzboss1 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #93 Share Posted July 13, 2008 D.... slacker!!!!!! remember...... walk--dont run <sniff sniff> have a great time xo Good morning, Shari.

Hope you don't mind!!;) ;) Thank you for my good wishes.xoxoxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll never forget that you were first in line for the bus calling, "Harv, Harv". He wouldn't move up. Blake said you'd never step back.

Blake said you'd never step back. LOL Oh ya, you're right. And this lady behind me was giving me dirty looks because I wanted him up with me, and she wanted me to step back to him instead and her husband muttered SOMETHING under his breath at me!!!! I was in line first, and I was boarding first!! lol I bad!!!! (For those of you that don't know the "buses", in Bayonne, NJ, the buses take you to the ship from the terminal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzboss1 Posted July 13, 2008 Author #97 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Well I'll check the pricing..ya never know! How much fun would that be!! And maybe Shari can save her pennies.... And although I will miss my kids, and their experiencing the cruise, it will be very nice to be ALONE for 7 days on a ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magroo Posted July 13, 2008 #99 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Hi Sara, I had the JS on the Explorer...in fact it is the exact same room # and location as the one I have on the Mariner. Most people would probably say there are enough hangers, but from someone like me who brings as many clothes and luggage as I do, there are never enough and I and pack my own...about 30 of them (the wire with the white tube..from the cleaners). But I have no problem doing a count for you. Thanks a million Denice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magroo Posted July 13, 2008 #100 Share Posted July 13, 2008 You must be jumping out of your skin in excitement that embarkation day is here for you. Like we've all said, we can't wait to read all your reports and thanks for posting! Have a super trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
