Castaway Cay is the tiny island on the lower left hand side - just below the island with the single dot in the middle.

 

[WebmasterMike]

Mike, can you please mark on your snazzy map where Castaway Cay is?

51 Days Until Fun on a Boat!!!!

51:
•Atomic number of antimony.
•Number for retired NFL legend from the Chicago Bears, Hall of Famer Dick Butkus.
•The code for international direct dial phone calls to Peru.
•Area 51, a parcel of U.S. military-controlled land in southern Nevada, apparently containing a secret aircraft testing facility.

•Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico are often mentioned as the future "51st State". (But isn't that what Canada is going to be? {only kidding--you'll be 53-65}
•Planet 51 was a movie released from TriStar Pictures in 2009.

I arrive in 44 days for my Pre-Cruise Stay!!!

Mike...And where we should set up our chairs for the best sun. OH....and the closest to the guys bringing the drinks with the umbrellas. OH.....and what about the hammocks? how far away are they?

Susan, there is this dude you just married and when he is not carrying a magnum of beverage around the ship, he contains much knowledge on the fun stuff on the island!!

FWIW, there is nothing like getting engaged on a Disney Cruise! See ya'll in December!!!

Antimony is used in some pewters we make (tin based alloys usually with copper and antimony), I think the chemical symbol Sb comes from the latin Stibium. It's electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2p6 3s2p6d10 4s2p6d10 5s2p3

Someone who speaks electron configuration? Be still my heart!!!!

And if you are fluent in stoichiometry.....well....you're already happily married.

Good Morning Everyone...nice day here...temps not too bad...in the low 50's.
7 weeks from today I will be cleaning up my desk and watching the clock.....then leaving on a jet plane to my favorite place in the world !!!!!

I wish it would resemble fall here in FL. It's 80 degrees at 10 AM. Only a few more weeks till everyone is here enjoying the florida "cold"!!

Hope you all are having a great day! Can't wait to meet everyone.

You can link your reservations so you are at least dining together at the same table. DU should be able to do that for you.

DU did that for some friends of ours that are not part of the DIS group. This way we'll at least be able to see them during dinner. Ohhhh and last night we all decided to go parasailing. Now just have to get that set up. It's my first time so I'm nervous as all get out!

TheBeadPirate (Lori & Rick) posted some news from onboard. Most notable, to new cruisers, was the information about the new cell tower at Castaway Cay.



Here is a photo (not theirs) from the DCL Photo of the Day thread.

The coconuts on that thing must be huge

I can already think of the right name.... The [insert screen name here] palm! Any guesses?

Me, too. I can't do the math.
I just know that I arrive the same day as Tracey.
So, whatever Tracey says... counts for me!

WooHoo! Tuba Christmas in Orlando is happening Post-Cruise!!

 

[jeanigor]

Only 25 miles and ~37 minutes (according to Google) I'd wager a tad longer on the time though....

do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it

WooHoo! Tuba Christmas in Orlando is happening Post-Cruise!!

Tuba it doesn't fit in the schedule. Used to play in HS. Played string bass in JHS, but hard to play football games . Went back to playing SB in college.
