10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat Cruise (I'm with BOB) Chapter #10

[Verandah Man]

This is Chapter #10 of the BOB threads.

If you're new to our group, you're not alone. Several of us have sailed together before (on the 10/20/07 Western Cruise - a.k.a. Konked Kruisers) and several more are new. To indicate the ones new to the group, we have put an * infront of their DIS name. There are 13 new DISers and 19 returning KKers.

The following is the same as the other first posts. For those of you new to our DIS Meet thread - WELCOME. There is plenty of good info in this post.

As usual, I'll be back here to update this post periodically. I will try to keep important information up here for all to reference as well as for all our new friends who come to cruise with us. If something of importance comes up, PM me and I will add the link.

We have dubbed this cruise "The Bash on the Boat" because so many people are celebrating birthdays or anniversaries on this cruise. You will also see "KK2" in the title. As you will read, many of us just sailed together on the 10/20/07 Western Cruise. So, with many of us returning here, we are dubbing this KK2. For those of you who didn't sail with us, please don't feel that you are not part of the group. We are a very open and welcoming/friendly bunch. We had such a great cruise last time, but feel it will be even better this time. Come along and enjoy the fun. We will get off-topic many times over the next 2 years, but it is a great way to get to know everyone.

First, here is the list of Characters:

* 2Princes_&_1Princess = Brandee and Justin and their 3 kids. Florida.
A Fat English Gent = Chirs and Hazel and their 3 kids. England.

* CRSNDSNY = Melody and EB with their DD (4) and DS (2). Pennsylvania.
Disgrits = Paige and Rob. Virginia.
* DISNEYDUET = Shelley and Woody. Virginia.
dizneycrazy4 = Janice and Mark with their DS(14) and DD(10). Wisconsin.
Dyerneeds/Tart Annihilator = Mike and Robin. Ohio.

A good place to start for planning this trip would be Cass' website. She has done a great job to organize almost everything you'll need for this cruise and posting here on the BOB board. Here is the link to her site: http://www.cassworld.ca/bobers.htm


Here are links to posts that we found important through this and the previous 2 threads.

Incase anyone is wondering what the FO game we play here on the B.O.B. cruise meets thread, Jen gave a good explanation of the game:
FO is a game (for lack of a better description) that was started on the Konked Kruiser thread that some of us belonged to for the October 07 cruise. Don't ask me who started it or how, I joined that threead late.

Anyway, the game in a nutshell....if you post, and your post is the beginning of a page, then you try to get the second post on the page also. It means you have started a "Fresh One" or "First One" (I forget what the actual term was).

Now, this isn't always as easy as it seems - if there are multiple posters on at the same time, and someone else gets the second post, you don't get to "claim the FO". The 40 second rule between postings comes into play.

We had decided to stop playing this little game when the DIS instituted limits on the lengths of threads....but old habits die hard, I guess, because some of us still try to claim our FO's (I am guilty!). So, play, or ignore, either one is fine! We're all just about having fun and being fans of DCL one way or another here.

We are a welcoming crew, though! :woohoo:

[Verandah Man]

We have a great bunch :goodvibes ::yes::
Oh, one more thing...
to be perfectly honest, we were back and forth between this one and the one that leaves on halloween and this group helped me make that decision. I knew it'd be fun to cruise with you all!

[Timon]

True!!! And true again!!! :goodvibes :thumbsup2 ;)

[JOANNEL]

Hi all,

from a newbie you guys are great and very friendly and welcoming.

[CRSNDSNY]

Ok, question for everyone:

Name a resort you DREAM about staying at someday that perhaps you have not yet stayed:

Ours would be the Grand Floridian castle view! :goodvibes

[captchris]

That's too bad!!!!

I think we'll get some more add-ons in the next year.

I hope our threads aren't intimidating!!!
Hardly, this is part of the fun for me, but I must confess to be a little more shy in person!

[Verandah Man]

Ok, question for everyone:

Same here Mel!!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup2

[JOANNEL]

We are trying a new one each year. This Sept- Animal Kingdom. Beach club so far is my favorite.

[Verandah Man]

Hardly, this is part of the fun for me, but I must confess to be a little more shy in person!



Believe it or not, so am I Chris, at least until I get to know someone!!! ;)

[Timon]

Oh, one more thing...
to be perfectly honest, we were back and forth between this one and the one that leaves on halloween and this group helped me make that decision. I knew it'd be fun to cruise with you all!


I think there are few people that mentioned that they booked with us because we were all so organized and had our stuff together :goodvibes :cool1:

[JOANNEL]

Hardly, this is part of the fun for me, but I must confess to be a little more shy in person!


Me too this chatting is easier.

[Verandah Man]

Hazel is the "talker" in our family, ask Mel........:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

[captchris]

Ok, question for everyone:

Name a resort you DREAM about staying at someday that perhaps you have not yet stayed:

I would love to stay in the Contemporary Tower, MK view. Ever since I was a kid, I was mesmerized by the Monorails going through the tower. I have to experience the CR someday!

And here's one I had made for Karen.

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a342/cntkg1/P2010053.jpg

We're hanging them on the Fish outside of our cabin doors next year. A bunch of us are playing DIStag and will leave behind little gifts for the other participants. If you'd like to play with us, just contact either Karen (Karen Mouse) or Jen (millerpjm) and they'll add you to the list. I believe we have a link to the instructions that we used last year on Andy's first post.

Check it out. I've played it twice now and just loved it!!

[CRSNDSNY]

Hazel is the "talker" in our family, ask Mel........:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
And EB is the talker in our family!!! Amelia is giving him a run for his money, though!!!


And the talki-ness of this thread really does help with waiting for this cruise to get here.

[Timon]

Ok, question for everyone:

Poly concierge :lovestruc :love: :cloud9:

I think we are all more shy in person :blush: ::yes:: But there was no lack of this :chat: :hyper2: once we got on the ship last cruise :rotfl2: :lmao:

Even by me and I am not a people person :rolleyes1

[goofyfreak]

To answer a few questions.

Weirdest food eaten on a cruise? Don't eat weird food. EVER!

Look forward to food on cruise? Watermelon and ice cream.

Resort of my dreams? Definitely Grand Floridian. Can't wait to stay there.:banana:

[captchris]

Me too, but I wonder how well they are kept up. It is getting old.

Being a deluxe, I am sure they get good treatment. I have seen updated pics of its latest renovation, and it looks quite nice.

[CRSNDSNY]

I would love to stay in the Contemporary Tower, MK view. Ever since I was a kid, I was mesmerized by the Monorails going through the tower. I have to experience the CR someday!
That's number 2 on our list!!!
How amazing would that view be??!! :lovestruc

[Timon]

Me too, but I wonder how well they are kept up. It is getting old.

Actually they were recently renovated and they look awesome! I never wanted to stay there until I saw the new rooms and now I would love to stay there ::yes:: Right after I stay at the Poly ;) :thumbsup2 :rotfl: Which will be right after I win the lottery :lmao:

Grand Floridian for us too. We've only tried two others though. Port Orleans French Quarter and Caribbean Beach Resort. I think we've stayed there 6 or 7 times now. We just can't break away from them. ;)

Sometimes you just get so comfortable with one place!

It is fun to try something new once in a while, though, but it can be a gamble.

[Verandah Man]

Look forward to food on cruise? Watermelon and ice cream.

We were thinking of going to WDW next year instead of our cruise, and I wanted to stay in Port Orleans Riverside or Caribbean Beach. The problem is, I have become addicted to cruising, so who knows when I will be getting back to the world for a true vacation.

[Verandah Man]

Actually, we were going to stop on the way home from the viewing, but I wanted to get home to see if I could catch the Magic sailing away, so really it was all "MY" fault we didn't have dinner, My Bad!!! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[cntkg1]

Well, I'd like to stay and see if any of our RepoBobs show up here tonight, but I'm super tired tonight. Hey!!! Maybe I'll even sleep tonight. :thumbsup2

It's been fun shutting down #9 with y'all. (That was for Sistah P). :lmao:

Stayed in the french quarter in May. Wasn't impressed. It was dirty and run down compared to the others. Did like the food court wasn't very crowded.

[JOANNEL]

Good night all.

Good Morning One and All.........:wave:

I didn't make those Joanne, I "had" them made for us. A DISer makes them and also sells them on eBay. She's made quite of few for me already. She does an absolute amazing job on them too. Beautiful handiwork.

Here's a thread you might be interested in...... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1923501 ........if you would like to see some pics of the Magic sailing out from CA!!! :goodvibes

Hi MG, Mel & Karen........:wave:

Just arrived home from Riverwinds, now it's time to get ready for work and get Lina up so she can start getting ready for Jenna's dad's funeral. It was a very emotional evening for Lina. The mother or dad, of one of the girls that went with us last night, will be driving the girls to the funeral today.

[cntkg1]

So here is the Repo Itinerary:

Here's a thread you might be interested in...... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1923501 ........if you would like to see some pics of the Magic sailing out from CA!!! :goodvibes

Beautiful photos and trouble is I WANT BACK on that SHIP

And

it is heavy raining here now. What a miserable.

Kids are not back to school yet as they should be back this Wednesday but move to Monday 25 Aug as it is brand new school. One more week left for them and shame that they had very bad weather in August.

Good Monday morning everyone. I'm starting out my week taking Emily to the doc. She hurt her ankle while she was boating with her friends (and her friend's dad) yesterday. I am hoping it is just sprained so it doesn't mess up her cross country running.

I want to be on the repo.


Ok, question for everyone:

Name a resort you DREAM about staying at someday that perhaps you have not yet stayed:

Ours would be the Grand Floridian castle view! :goodvibes

Me, too!

[disgrits]

Well, I guess no one wants to chat this morning. Everyone must be getting ready for work.

Y'all have a great day!:thumbsup2

Grand Floridian is a wish too. Diane

I just recevied a PM from Jeff, here it is:

......Anyhow, we're at sea today. Cloudy and only about 70 this morning. I thought it might be an inside day today. Probably go see the Golden Mickey's this afternoon. I'll be posting shortly here on the main thread. Pretty sad when the first thing I go to when I get online is the DIS. :rotfl2:

Hey, are you ratting me out? :lmao:

Sorry, I always go to the PM's first people. That's why, if you have a question, shoot me a PM.

Anyhow, it is a bit cool today, which is what I thought it would be the first day. The sea temps I think are only 77 in this part of the ocean, so not too warm. Water is calm and we're moving pretty good.

The BOB group is having a great time together. Our assistant server was off her game big time last night. I'll try to post more later (what I will do is type in Word off of the DIS and then copy and paste).

We have the 500 minute package ($150) so I will check in on the sea days. Have some good pictures already (I'll see if I can get them uploaded - may need Andy's help if it takes too long ;) ).

Here's the funny thing, I'll drop $150 to get an internet connection but am hemming and hawwing on a $250 watch. :sad2: I think I may have it bought by this evening (formal night).

Anyhow, I'll check back later. Again, PM me important stuff because I won't have time to read it all.

P.S. The Darkside is as annoying as we thought. Not all of them, but mainly the core group. And the "captain", I think any comments will be "*" out. :sad2:

[Karen Mouse]

In answer to the question earlier = mine too is the Grand Floridian - one day when I win the lottery I'll take us all there:goodvibes

[JLDSMD]

How cool! -Golden Mickeys - I wish I was with them:banana:

So do we. We saw Leesa as soon as we boarded and she asked if you, Neil and Ellis were on the cruise with us too. We sadly told her no, but you will be in October of 2009.

She is on the APL rotation (5:45) but we switched off that one a month ago for the LAP (5:30) - better rotation.

[Karen Mouse]

Hiya Jeff - Have you gone already? Did I miss you by seconds:sad1:

I hope those new tablemates of yours are living up to our high standard:lmao:

[millerpjm]

Hi everyone!

Wow, my first post on thread 10 and it's on page 8??? :scared1: I'm falling way, way behind in the post counts...;) I also haven't caught up on the end of thread 9...hope I didn't miss anything important!

We spent last weekend at Pete's family's cottage at a lake about 1/2 hour from here. We had fun boating and swimming, but no internet access to say hi to everyone. Also, no pics since I forgot my camera! :sad2:

Today, however, I am just exhausted - I can barely keep my eyes open at work...fortunately I have less than 3 hours to go.

[Jess44]

Hello everyone,

I am very sad today, would like to say the pictures helped but they didn't!!! Only joking...:scared:

I WANT TO BE ON THE REPO!!! I'm 24 and need to get over this obsession with holidaying in Mickeyland with my parents!!!

I am trying to work out if a glass of wine pre-7.30 is acceptable. I know turning to the bottle won't help, but neither will a cup of tea, so that's my reasoning!

Brenda - We are coming in Oct 2009, I have decided, dont you worry, even if its just to secure my place haha! You have my word i will not let you down. Just imagine how easily we will be able to wear him down in three weeks time when he is back off the Maj...he will be itching to get back on that boat i tell you!!

Nancy - Glad you got to talk to my pa, i know you all think a lot of him as he does you guys!! xxxx:lovestruc

[Tinkerbell.RN]

Hello everyone! I see the 9th chapter finally closed. :goodvibes

I saw the cam pics of the Magic sailing. I would love to be on there! The long cruise would be great. After all, our first one was 11 nights!

I guess I'll spend a few minutes catching up on the 8 pages already posted here.:thumbsup2

[Tinkerbell.RN]

Ok, question for everyone:

Name a resort you DREAM about staying at someday that perhaps you have not yet stayed:

Ours would be the Grand Floridian castle view! :goodvibes

Well, we didn't have the castle view, but the Grand Floridian was my first taste of WDW! Matthew and I stayed there on our honeymoon in 1989! It was an amazing experience for this then 22 year old!


I would love to stay at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Hopefully I can talk Matthew into booking us into the DVC rooms on one of our future trips! We didn't want to add points there because that would split them into 3 resorts (We have points from Old Key West... which was the ONLY DVC site when we bought!... and Beach Club Villas)

[Tinkerbell.RN]

Hi all,

from a newbie you guys are great and very friendly and welcoming.

I'll second that emotion!:goodvibes The kore KK group have been very welcoming!

[Tinkerbell.RN]

To answer a few questions.

Weirdest food eaten on a cruise? Don't eat weird food. EVER!

Look forward to food on cruise? Watermelon and ice cream.

Resort of my dreams? Definitely Grand Floridian. Can't wait to stay there.:banana:

I forgot about these questions from the end of the last thread!

I agree with the first...if I think it is weird, I'm not likely to eat it! BUT we tried watermelon soup on our first cruise (the Med!) and it was great! I wish they would add it to their regular cruises.

Looking forward to food? Anything. I don't get to eat as much cuisine in real life!

It's so nice to hear from you Jess. Keep it up. You'll have more posts on thread 10 than your dad does on 1-9 all added up together. :lmao:

I don't know anything about the views...but Grand Floridian would get my vote also! Second choice would be the Polynesian....

My one and only trip to WDW we stayed at the Contemporary in the Garden wing (I think it's the one they tore down/are tearing down) and it was really nice. I loved being on the monorail!

[disgrits]

How did it go Sistah P? Hopefully, everything is ok. ;)

Neil had the added bonus of carrying Ellis most of the way there too. :lmao: - we should have been smart like Jen and left him on the ship to play with Thomas.

[Karen Mouse]

Well, our playroom / garage is finally finished. Neil put the skirting board on today and we've had a good sort out - it looks really nice now.

Ellis has a 28" tv in there for his playstation, a golf game, a punchbag to practice his karate, his snooker/football table and all his bikes, skateboards etc too. Its a proper playroom now rather than a dumping ground for junk:goodvibes

[Karen Mouse]

I wonder what Algae (aka my Plankton) is doing onboard right now?

I hope he's keeping well away from that floozie Big Red:eek:

I wonder if he got rezzies for Palo?

I wonder if he's made friends with any towel animals?

I just know that I wish Heather had taken me in her suitcase instead of Algae:rotfl:

So with school starting in a couple of weeks, our summer is drawing to an end. Hope everyone is well, and will fill me in on any new news. To any new families, WELCOME. I see our BOBers are enjoying themselves on the REPO. Wish it were me, but glad they give us updates. Though it is getting closer to our trip in '09.

[arielhead]

To answer a few questions.

Weirdest food eaten on a cruise? Don't eat weird food. EVER!

Look forward to food on cruise? Watermelon and ice cream.

Resort of my dreams? Definitely Grand Floridian. Can't wait to stay there.:banana:

Resort? I always thought the Dolphin/Swan looked beautiful.

Food onboard? All of it! DH usually tries both entrees.

Weirdest food? It's been awhile. I usually try something new at each meal. Something that I've never heard of or never even tried to make.

[arielhead]

I can't believe my first post is on page 11! I've been reading and keeping up but haven't felt that I've had much to contribute lately. I'll try to do better.

I'd like to try distag if I could think of something I'd like to share. Is there a thread with ideas?

Our humidity has broken--early for this time of year. Our weather is wonderful and it feels like football weather. However, DS started his first fall breathing trouble today. Usu. it is the first week of September. I guess we're off to the doctor for some allergy meds tomorrow.:confused3

[arielhead]

Jeff, I'm enjoying your posts! Thanks for keeping us up to date!

Paige, so glad it was a sprain--although they can be just as painful as anything else! (according to DH :rotfl2:)

Nite all. :flower3:

Nite all. :flower3:

I'd like to try distag if I could think of something I'd like to share. Is there a thread with ideas?


The only stipulation we've made this year is that it has to be small(ish). People so far have suggested keyrings, fridge magnets, xmas ornaments, homemade cd's, pens, that sort of thing. Last year mine took up half a suitcase on the way out and the gifts took about the same on the return.

Due to every airline clamping down on weight etc we decided to keep it small this year.

I think you're already on the Tag list - maybe Lori put your name down?

Anyone else want to play? Any newbies to the thread want to put your name down? I seem to remember someone suggested closing it at about 30ish?

[Karen Mouse]

Janice - nice to see you back:goodvibes

[Karen Mouse]

Yet another rainy and miserable day here in Britain:rolleyes:

God help the 2012 olympics - if the weather is like this the whole thing will be cancelled:sad2:

Not much happening here today.... Ellis and I are going shopping for Neils birthday party stuff. Ellis has decided Daddy should have a party - he chose the menu - chicken nuggets, pizza, sandwiches, crisps, jelly, icecream and birthday cake!:lmao: We're gonna get banners, balloons etc and do a proper kids party for him:lmao: Might even do pass the parcel or musical chairs:lmao:

The poor thing is on night call on Friday so he could spend the whole evening and night of his birthday working.:sad2:

Good morning!

:scared1: An ice cold Coronita will help that Mel. :scared1:

What did you have? One of my favorites is a meatless enchilada that I actually just make myself. Tortilla (La Tortilla makes some where you get 2 for only 1 WW point), 1/2 c Fat Free Refried Beans, salsa, enchilada sauce. Roll up and top with Fat Free Cheddar and jalepeno. Bake for 20 min at 375 and top with lettuce, more salsa and FF Sour cream. YUMMY!!!!!!

I don't think we'll be able to close at 30ish the way this thread is going....it'll end up being closed a year out!

I think as long as we keep things small we should keep DIStag open until a couple months before the cruise to give newer people a chance to play. I don't think I joined the KK thread until May before the cruise, and I would have missed out on a lot.

[millerpjm]

OOOooohhh....a DIStag FO?

Well, we went to fetch Neils party items and I realised my credit card was missing from my purse:scared1:

Took me ages to remember where I'd last used it. Got home and phoned the store - luckily the store still had it from last Friday - geez - if I wasn't grey haired already I would be by now - I sooooooooo panicked!:rolleyes1

Just been up to collect it.

Phoned Neil to tell him what I'd done only to find out he'd been stooopid today too! - he locked his car keys in the trunk of his car:lmao:

Duh! - dont think our brains are working properly -must be all this rain thats made them soggy!:lmao:

We're thinking of switching providers to see if they are any cheaper. Just did a pre -thingy online and we may be able to save $1000+ a year if we switch provider:banana:

I'll leave Neil to sort out the rest - this sort of thing gives me a :headache:

Hi everyone. Just popping in to catch up on PM's before we head out to Cabo. Our tour meets at 10:45, so I only have a few minutes.

Cass, you'll be happy to know that Minnie made a little girl cry on embarkment day. Total B!tch, huh? :rotfl2:

So, not sure which story will tease you guys more, the one about Suz having to actually use/talk to the head server about the service or the one of our group being DENIED access to Sessions last night.

I'll try to post some logs tonight. If not then, it will be on our next sea day. We are in port all day tomorrow at PV.

Talk soon.

Nice pics of all the distags Nancy, just a shame about the horrendous 'Birstall News' tea towel in the middle of it all!!! An error of judgement on my Dad's part, i promise they will be better next year, you know when we back are on the Disney Magic, nudge nudge wink wink...!

Karen, your poem is brilliant!! I have passed your regards onto my Dad - AFEG and co. are today going to the beach. Looking at very clever 'Verandah Man's' gorgeous picture it will no doubt be a rubbish day....not. Rosie told me today that they had seen the server who we had last year, fingers-crossed it was the one we liked and not the one we had to complain about (a lot)....:confused:

Congratulations on A/C Cass, unsurprisingly in this country we never seem to need it......

I like my tea towel, thank you very much! However, at times I also felt my DIStag gift was inadequate in comparison to the lovely things that showed up at my door! (Especially when I received Cass's scrapbook - she's SO talented!)

I want to be on the Magic today! It looked so beautiful in the webcam photo....

Sorry 'Millerpjm' you have every right to love your tea towel!! But as you quite rightly say, none of us had a chance with the lovely scrapbook from Cass! I am sure we will up our game next time!!!!:lmao:

That was my first time playing DIStag, and I almost felt guilty because some of the things we received were so nice. We had a nice gift to hand out, but some were so fabulous!

hi jen mouse.:cutie:
you've got a bottle of rum on your cruise clock.:laughing: :laughing:

[EPCOT_VA]

See, there's a reason I don't like that tramp!! :rolleyes1 :lmao: :rotfl2:

Wow, can't wait to hear about BOTH those stories!!! ::yes::



Jeff, there's a thread over on the DCL board where people are tracking your cruise. oneprincess posted an AMAZING photo that I am sure Suz, as well as Heather and Becky would LOVE to have in their scrapbooks!!! It's on page 2...you will know which one I am talking about :thumbsup2

All I want to know is WHO'S IN MY ROOM?! :sad:

We booked the same room for the BOB cruise that we had last year in the Med. I tell the kids that it is our "home" on the Magic. It just moves around between our trips and other people get to use it. Room 7552. :boat:

Jeff, leave a note on the door and say the Crosmans say "hi" :laughing:

I am so hoping that DCL does the Northern European cruise in 2010. It would be great! I've even made up some of the port calls. (Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, etc.)

Sigh.... Daydreaming again... :beach:

DIS Tag



Dis Tag is a fun game to play while onboard with a specified amount of participants, so be sure to sign up early!

Basically the idea is to buy a small gift for each of the participants.
You will receive a spreadsheet and magnet from the Dis Tag Organizers (millerpjm & Karen Mouse) with all the names and
cabins listed. Throughout the week, you deliver your gifts all the while receiving them too!

You will start with the person listed directly below your name on the spreadsheet. Deliver your "gift" and leave the magnet at the top of their cabin door. Should your "gift" be too large to fit in the 'fish mail holder', locate any Stateroom Host/ess and request they take your gift directly into the room. When someone leaves you a gift and the magnet, deliver your surprise and received magnet to the next person on your list-and so on. When you get to the last person 'participating' at the bottom of the page, start at the top of the list. Continue until you get to the person listed above YOUR name.


So this means if we have 20 DISers who want to play tag, we will each have to bring 19 little gifts.

If you'd like to play, please email me at cass@cassworld.ca and I will add your name to the list.
If you have any questions please PM millerpjm or Karen Mouse.

I need that rum...it helps the time pass until the BOB cruise! :drinking1

Actually, they didn't have any little icons of Tortuga rum cake, so I had to settle for the rum. ;)

seriously though, she'd rather do a med cruise than the repo.
she's always wanted to go overseas.
i keep telling her she married the wrong dude for that. she should have married a guy for money but instead settled for a guy with the good looks.:laughing:
(yeah right.:sick: ):laughing:

Ok, a couple of questions...

FO??? what is that???

DIS Tag??

Andy answered the DIStag question, so I'll get this one.

FO is a game (for lack of a better description) that was started on the Konked Kruiser thread that some of us belonged to for the October 07 cruise. Don't ask me who started it or how, I joined that threead late.

Anyway, the game in a nutshell....if you post, and your post is the beginning of a page, then you try to get the second post on the page also. It means you have started a "Fresh One" or "First One" (I forget what the actual term was).

Now, this isn't always as easy as it seems - if there are multiple posters on at the same time, and someone else gets the second post, you don't get to "claim the FO". The 40 second rule between postings comes into play.

We had decided to stop playing this little game when the DIS instituted limits on the lengths of threads....but old habits die hard, I guess, because some of us still try to claim our FO's (I am guilty!). So, play, or ignore, either one is fine! We're all just about having fun and being fans of DCL one way or another here.

I'll find a way to link to the slideshow(s) when it is done. I had over 3500 pictures to sort through. The London part was finished last year (180 pictures in the slideshow). The main cruise portion is about 570 pictures and our two days in Barcelona is another 120 for the slideshows. Yes, that is the short version. :scared1:

I am breaking up the main cruise into three slideshows. I'll keep you updated.

I'm ok with sending my baby off to school, not so happy about him growing up. Time goes too fast, and he's my one and only baby.

Speaking of, it's time for me to go get him....see you later!
