2007 Turkey Day Gang Part 4 - Nov 17-24

[ICEMANPAD]

OK, someone had to start the live thread...so i went ahead and started it a couple weeks early. This is the place to pick up from the main thread once we are actually aboard ship.

:cool1: I can't wait!!! :cool1:

[ICEMANPAD]

Now the trick is to keep this thread on the first page.

Chuck:cool1:

[LAMPSKIES]

Well if it's a "live from" I'll be "bumpin'"......Think we can make that ship rock 2 weeks strait!

[Momof1+2]

I thought I was doing great on time, but seeing this thread up is putting me into a state of panic! Once trick or treating is over I am going to have to move from "research" mode to packing mode. One disadvantage to booking a cruise only 90 days out.

That's what I am talking about......enchanted premiere......Who won the hot legs contest today.......

[momsgoofy]

Hope ya'll are having a blast!

I so miss being on the ship...it's been too long since that first turkey gang cruise back in 2004!

And hey, Chuck, ya better make sure they know Lampy is coming onboard next....load up the Miller Lite!

[zack&alexmom]

I hope you guys are having a great time! We got off on Saturday and we miss it so much.

If you go in the stores, tell everybody that Zack and Alex miss them and can't wait to come back and "work" more next year.

Also, if you are in Palo this week ask for Annie Marie from South Africa - she was our server last week but she was supposed to move back up to Palo this week. She is wonderful! Tell her that Zack & Alex are missing her as well. Actually, so are their parents!

Have a wonderful time!

Thanks for the update Chuck, I'll just bring some extra "carryon"....FINALLY made GC??? See there actually is an island!

[ICEMANPAD]

Well, made it to the mainland today...ok the crossing on the ferry was a bit rough, but the underground river at Xcaret was worth it....Xcaret is well worth the visit and we'd have enjoyed it even more had the sun actually come out instead of the intermittent down pours, but hey, we were wet anyway from the river...anyway time for dinner (not pirate night, that was yesterday, but tonight 3 screenings of Enchanted in the big theater.
