[JLDSMD]

Evening Everyone. Just checking in.

Busy last couple days and we'll be gone tomorrow.

Went to see Grandma yesterday (she's 99 and doing great). It was funny, we usually take her to lunch with us, but she didn't want to go this time. She says she didn't want to miss lunch at the home because she may lose her place at the table. Guess it's getting cut-throat there with the new residents. :rotfl2:

Today was football and then shoppng while DS was at Zoo class.

Tomorrow is Six Flags Great America (Suz' company has the whole park tomorrow, so only 9,000 people tops :cool1: ).

[disgrits]

Mike are you watching Alabama/Georgia?:scared1:

[JLDSMD]

Hello There,

My name is Vi and I am Andy's (Verandah Man) mom. My friend Walt and I will be joining you on the B.O.B. cruise next year. This is a "surprise cruise" for Walt. I think I will be telling him about the cruise this coming April when he will be celebrating his 87th birthday. My son switched our cabins around and Walt and I will now be in Andy's old cabin #5520. Andy, Hazel and Angelina have moved next door to cabin #5522.

This is the first time I posted on the DISboards in about 1.5 years, so don't expect me to be on much. :laughing:

I had Andy send in a photo of Walt and myself to Cass so it can be included on the B.O.B. website page.

I am really looking forward to getting back on the Magic and meeting you fine people, Andy talks about you all the time.


Hi Vi. Glad to see you on the thread. Also glad to see the room swithes all worked out.

[JLDSMD]

Mike are you watching Alabama/Georgia?:scared1:

Paige,

How's LSU doing? Wisconsin blew it today. They were up 19-0 when we left for church. Lost 27-25. Sad.

Evening Dawg.

How did the Tribe do?

Brewers lost and Mets won, so we have to wait until tomorrow to see if they make the playoffs.

Brewers better win, because I'll bet the Mets do. If they tie, they would play a tie-breaker, I think.

[Dyerneeds]

Mike are you watching Alabama/Georgia?:scared1:

we just got home a little while ago. the tribe game just ended and i flipped it to that game.(i'm taking the nite off from womens beach volleyball):laughing:

[JLDSMD]

Anyone catch the USC game live? I did and it was great.

I see #4 Florida lost today too.

I think the BCS will be way up in the air by the end of the season.

[captchris]

I have been watching a mix of Nick and Disney channel for the last 2 hours. This kid just won't go to sleep!

[JLDSMD]

Welcome Vi. Say hi to Walt. I am Di and my DH is Walt. We are from San Antonio, Texas and this will be our third Disney cruise.

[JLDSMD]

O.K., I'm back.

Putting DS to bed turned in to me, flipping our mattress (1st of the month), putting the new heated mattress pad on the bed, and making the bed. The hardest part was flipping the mattress. Wanted to surprise Suz, so I did it myself. Racked my knuckle on the headboard while flipping the mattress.

No red dress or red hair for this girl, Dawg. Nice try though. :lmao:

[JLDSMD]

It was so cool watching that game. And for it to be in OR, even better. The students were just going nuts.

[cntkg1]

Great pictures, Heather!

I have to ask ... what animal is that towel supposed to be? It kind of reminds me of a rabbit / human hybrid posing for a naughty magazine. :lmao:

:lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :lmao:

It was hot and steamy on that cruise! Minnie is just retaining water!


:rotfl2: Good one Susan. :rotfl2:

(And I'm sure one of those techy BOBs could tell you how to post that slide show. ) :worship: :worship: :worship:

[JLDSMD]

I thought I heard a tie breaker game on Monday evening at Shea on New York Sports Radio yesterday.

Why do they get it? Did they win more games against MKE in the regular season?

They should put that on a neutral field.

[JLDSMD]

they won.:thumbsup2 they'll finnished no worse that .500 now. not that it matters. i'll miss it. mikey likes his baseball.:thumbsup2

you got cc going on 3 days rest tomorrow i see. good luck. remember what i told you about cc in pressure games.:eek: :scared:
but hey, good luck. you guys deserve a break in baseball.:wizard:

They had him pitch the last game against Pittsburgh I think and he won.

I just think having the Cubs in town is not good. Hopefully they won't play as hard since they will have to play a meaningful game in a few days.

[JLDSMD]

Yay, the Tigers won!:cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

They'll still have to "step it up" for Florida and Georgia.....They'll be playing for blood now.


Did GA lose too?

[JLDSMD]

sometimes its good to be a poppa.:rotfl2: :thumbsup2

Yeah, bet you can't wait for the next time one of the Grand Kids sleeps over. :thumbsup2

Goodnight.:goodvibes

[captchris]

I am guessing thats how it works....regular season series wins/losses.

[captchris]

I'm off too. goodnight

[cntkg1]

I will trully miss cruising with him and everyone else here on the board. You have joined a very special group here.:hug:

Evening Everyone. Just checking in.

Busy last couple days and we'll be gone tomorrow.

Went to see Grandma yesterday (she's 99 and doing great). It was funny, we usually take her to lunch with us, but she didn't want to go this time. She says she didn't want to miss lunch at the home because she may lose her place at the table. Guess it's getting cut-throat there with the new residents. :rotfl2:

Hiya Tracy. Welcome aboard. I'm Heather and my DH is Rick. We're all the way from the UK and can't wait for next October. We're a chatty bunch, so jump right in and join the chatter. The first page of each thread has the important information. Thanks for sharing your picture with us.

[oybolshoi]

Welcome to thread and the cruise! :cheer2: :banana: :cool1:


We have a really fun and talkative group here ... don't be shy and don't feel like you have to read back through everything. The really important cruise-related stuff will always be posted on the very first page of each thread.

My name is Brenda and I'll be cruising with my hubby, Jason. We're Disney DINKS - you can usually find us in the spa, Palo, Cove Cafe, or a bar ... it's a dissolute vacation life we lead. :rotfl2:

We're a crazy bunch of very chatty DISers so jump in and get to know us. Karen (Karen Mouse) said it best, we were all strangers at one point but we want to change all that.

I'm Nancy (Mother Goose/MG) cruising with my DH Chuck (Charlie Tuna). Our children are also cruising with us. Tony 27 and his wife Stacy 25 (ST Cruisers) and Kristin 24 and her soon-to-be husband Jesse 27 (Team Fun Pants).

Glad to have you onboard. Click on the B.O.B (Bash on the Boat) logo in my siggie line for the best link ever to our cruise. Cass (Timon) created it for us and it's chocked full of great info.

Hello There,

My name is Vi and I am Andy's (Verandah Man) mom. My friend Walt and I will be joining you on the B.O.B. cruise next year. This is a "surprise cruise" for Walt. I think I will be telling him about the cruise this coming April when he will be celebrating his 87th birthday. My son switched our cabins around and Walt and I will now be in Andy's old cabin #5520. Andy, Hazel and Angelina have moved next door to cabin #5522.

This is the first time I posted on the DISboards in about 1.5 years, so don't expect me to be on much. :laughing:

I had Andy send in a photo of Walt and myself to Cass so it can be included on the B.O.B. website page.

I am really looking forward to getting back on the Magic and meeting you fine people, Andy talks about you all the time.

Hi All! We will be joining you for the cruise. We went on our first Disney cruise 2 years ago. Loved IT.Our group consists of Me- Tracy, DH- Tom, DS- Zac (15) and maybe DS Chris. Looking forward to getting to know everyone before the cruise.


Welcome to all the new cruisers :welcome: I am Cheryl and I'll be cruising with my DH Al and our DD Rachel 15 and her friend Courtney 15. This will be our 6th cruise on the Magic :dance3: . This is a great group, glad you're joining us.

Have a great week everyone. We have a very busy week ahead of us so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to get on here. It is homecoming week at the highschool and Rachel is on student council and she has lots of things going on with that this week and I volunteered to help at some of them too. Then Sat. night is the homecoming dance, her first highschool dance. She is going with a group of friends. She also joined the highschool debate team and yesterday she had her first debate meet and she and her partner won a trophy for their team :cheer2: All these highschool activities are keeping all of us busy!

hey susan.. want to wager on the browns vs. bengals game today?
how about the winner gets a strawberry smoothie?:rotfl2:
should be a clash of the titans. both teams 0-3.:rotfl2: :lmao:

[Laxmom]

I'm in! The battle for the bottom begins!!! It's just another season here in Cincinnati! We're already saying, "there's always next year!" I'm hoping to see some Brady Quinn today. (I'm more of a college ball fan - go Bucks!) But even the Steelers are struggling who I follow more than the Bengals. I gave up on the Bengals years ago.


There is this commercial on the radio that has this guy placing a phone in order. He says, "I'll have an blow to the gut, a kick in the shins and an elbow to the face, please." The waitress replies, "Would you like a knee to the groin with that?" He says sure. She asks his name. His response is, "Just call me Bengals fan."

Sums it up! BTW, where in Ohio are you?

[Timon]

We stayed there for 1 night before we came home and will definately be going back again. That is after we stay in the new Tree Houses at Saratoga hopefully in 2011.:cool1:

Those tree houses looked cool too but I really wanna stay at AKV ;)

Now I am off to get dressed for dinner. Rob and I are trying to leave a little early to stop at a drug store for a Neti Pot.:banana: :scared1:

[Verandah Man]

Hi All! We will be joining you for the cruise. We went on our first Disney cruise 2 years ago. Loved IT.Our group consists of Me- Tracy, DH- Tom, DS- Zac (15) and maybe DS Chris. Looking forward to getting to know everyone before the cruise.
Here is a picture from the cruise.

[disgrits]

Hi, Andy! We're going to be there--if I ever stop Dissing....

[cntkg1]

So I was going through some drawers today and found a old notebook that we used to budget and plan our trips to Florida.

Here's what I found:

September 1993 10 night trip to Orlando.


Howard Johnson's Fountain Park Plaza Hotel-Kissimmee
$38.15/night with AAA discount and Magic Kingdom Club discount = $266.70
($325.00)

Gas
$.99/gallon average = $300.00:scared1: (2400 miles roundtrip)

Food Allowance:
$55.00/day for 4 people (2 adults and 2 kids):goodvibes

Spending Money::scared1: :scared1:
$300.00

KOA campground x 4 nights = $10.00/night = $40.00

Entire trip budget was $1520.00

Then because I was a compulsive planner way back then, I even wrote down what we actually spent.

Howard Johnson's = $328.00
Gas=$241.00
Food = $388.00
Spending Money = $255.00
KOA= $40.00

TOTAL = $1252.00

I remember we treated the kids and went to Universal for the first and last time that year because we were able to save some money during the trip. We had breakfast at Perkins EVERY morning for $2.00 each. 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, 2 bacon for $2.00! I also remember making sandwiches for us for lunch. Dinner was at Ponderosa because it was cheaper if we ate at 4:30 and ate off the lunch buffet. Dinner started at 5:00 and we would just sit around and wait until then for the good stuff. :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Sometimes we just went down to Florida and never went to any of the parks at all. We would hang around Old Town in Kissimmee every night for our entertainment. Now I can't even imagine going down there without a visit with the Mouse.


Ahhhhh, the good old days. :flower3:

[disgrits]

Ok, I'm really outta here, now.

[Verandah Man]

So did everyone get to see my new countdown. Won't be able to cruise with all of you :sad1: but I do get to spend my 40th birthday at Disneyland. Hoping to get one of the new Grand CA villas for those days, that is if they ever open them up :rolleyes1


Hi Becky, I am happy to hear you will be able to spend your 40th Birthday at Disneyland, especially since you won't be able to be with us on the Magic.

Boy you are not kidding about fast moving. My Dh's only comment about going on another cruise was to not make him wear a suit ( you know I am retired). He always throws in the you know..... statement, so it is a running joke around here, when he is not into something.
After deciding to go back to school and get my masters in nursing edu, I will be so ready to not study for awhile.

HOW ABOUT THE CHIEFS!!party:
THEY FINALLY WON.

If you don't want to go to the hassle of bringing formal wear, you can always go to Topsiders on those nights. The food is the almost the same, and you do get waited on. It's not a buffet at night. I love dressing up at night, especially formal nights. Makes it more special.

[GOS]

That's me done for tonight. Have a great evening everyone.

[Dyerneeds]

congrats to the brewers.:thumbsup2 they made the playoffs.:thumbsup2
of course you needed a Clev Indian to help you get in.:laughing:

[captchris]

Welcome new cruisers! I am Christian and will be travelling with my wife Elaine, Daughter Samantha (9), and Son Jay.(7)

I started this chapter of the thread so if you would like to be added to the first page DIS list, I can make sure you are added. Just send me a PM with the details you wish to include.

Welcome aboard!

[Dyerneeds]

It's something that would make you the bestest grandpa to little Brady in about 7 or 8 years.;) But at least make Ellis think you are the bestest underdog and let his bestest mommy get it for him this year, there have to be more out there.:thumbsup2

we always ate ate perkins on 192.:woohoo:
we also used to stroll around old town.:thumbsup2
early on we stayed at holiday inn, then days inn, then rodeway inn and one year we stayed at some rinky dink place called the Golden link hotel.:laughing:
ditto that... ahhh the good old days.:grouphug:
our lives are soooo similar its scary.:thumbsup2 :hippie:

Yep, Cleveland looked better :confused: and won The Toilet Bowl, as it was being called down here. I think I will see if Carson Palmer comes back before I take that bet!!

Just changed our Dec. ressies again. We are now Club level for both Sat and Sun night. We decided to turn in the rental car on Sat. and use Disney buses and just take ME back to the airport. This is so cool. It has been a dream to go see the decorations but to stay at WL ....well that is just the icing on the cake!

Looks gorgeous :goodvibes I'm torn between getting a savannah view studio or a standard value 1 bedroom. I would love the extra room and laundry but I would love for Kira to see some animals everyday :confused3

Wow, that is too cool MG! I was like that too! I went in 1993 with my friend, we had just turned 21 and didn`t have a lot of money. We drove all the way down there (60+ hours) with no AC in July!!! :scared: Young and stupid I guess :lmao: We stayed at the Comfort Inn Maingate West for $42 per night. We ate either at Perkins, Ponderosa or fast food at the parks. We didn`t do a single sit down restaurant in the parks, too expensive :eek:


I could barely afford the trip and had like zero spending money but I was ok with that!! I was so happy to be there, didn`t even complain when we had to wait 1 hour+ for each and every ride, 2 hours for Back to the Future! :rolleyes: Next time back was Rob`s first trip ever in 1999.

We spend more money on each subsequent trip :rolleyes1 :lmao:


Boy you are not kidding about fast moving. My Dh's only comment about going on another cruise was to not make him wear a suit ( you know I am retired).

I don`t think we will be getting as dressed up this cruise. With the extra charges for bags, I think we will lighten up with clothes ;) We saw a lot of people who were dressed down for formal and semi-formal night and they fit right in. I think as long as you aren`t wearing jeans and tees for formal night, you will have no problem eating at the dining rooms.

[captchris]

Deluxe WDW hotels are a point of contention in our house. I either want to stay in the Wilderness or Contemporary, while Elaine thinks the AKL would be her first choice. The way we keep from arguing is to stay in the All Star or Pop!

Someday...Someday, I will stay in the Contemporary though.

Yup, that's the Perkins Mike. 192 and Poinciana Blvd. The Hojo's was the one right next to it, kitty corner from Camper's World. :thumbsup2 Everytime we are in Orlando we go through that area just for old time's sake. I think Hojo's is now a Ramada but it's pretty run down. :sad2:

The Perkins used to sell the best bakery cookies too. We would wait until shortly before closing time and run over from the hotel to get the cookies at half price. :yay:

A lot of those 192 properties have seen much better days! In 2001 I tooke 15 kids from our community to WDW and we stayed on the westside of 192 where everything was fairly new. It was nice and quiet too. The hotel was the Comfort Suites Maingate.

[millerpjm]

Hello There,

My name is Vi and I am Andy's (Verandah Man) mom. My friend Walt and I will be joining you on the B.O.B. cruise next year. This is a "surprise cruise" for Walt. I think I will be telling him about the cruise this coming April when he will be celebrating his 87th birthday. My son switched our cabins around and Walt and I will now be in Andy's old cabin #5520. Andy, Hazel and Angelina have moved next door to cabin #5522.

This is the first time I posted on the DISboards in about 1.5 years, so don't expect me to be on much. :laughing:

I had Andy send in a photo of Walt and myself to Cass so it can be included on the B.O.B. website page.

I am really looking forward to getting back on the Magic and meeting you fine people, Andy talks about you all the time.

Welcome Vi! I'm Jen, and I will be cruising with DH Pete and DS Thomas, and a whole bunch of assorted relatives. Looking forward to meeting you...it's going to be a lot of fun!

P.S. - I haven't met him in person yet, but your son is such a nice man. You should be proud:goodvibes

[millerpjm]

I know I am in the minority, but I didn't care for Pirates 2 and 3 at all :sad2: Especially 3 :rolleyes: But I think the first one is a FANTASTIC movie!!!!!

If you are in the minority, then so am I....they could have stopped at one and I would have been very happy. I did not really like 2 or 3 - the plot got WAY too complicated and erratic, and Davy Jones was just UGLY!

[captchris]

I didn't care for 2, but I liked parts of 3. I really liked seeing Barbossa and liked seeing him as a protagonist. I liked the transition of Elizabeth into full blown pirate.

I get the urge to watch 3 occasionally. Maybe I will watch it tonight if the Yankees/Sox game is a bore.

Booyah! The Rams are 0 and 4!!! :cheer2: :cool1:

Well friends, I think I am going to call it an early night. Be back in the AM.

[Verandah Man]

Howdy Folks.......:wave:

Just got back to our room here at the Ramanda, we had the "BEST" time tonight at dinner, what a real "TREAT" this has been.

For meeting everyone for the first time, it seemed like we had known each other for years.

I'll be posting pics once they are loaded, getting ready to do that now, but wanted to post this message first.

[Verandah Man]

I'm sorry if I get the spelling of the names wrong. These are the pics I took tonight. Matthew has more pics on his camera that he can share, or when he sends them to me I will add them to my Webshots account.

I did take a couple of videos with Lina's camera, I still haver to load them into my laptop. I'm not sure how the videos will turn out because it was quiet dark in the Outback. If they turn out OK, I will post a link to them later.

[Verandah Man]

Another DISmeet FO!!!

I did take a couple of videos with Lina's camera, I still haver to load them into my laptop. I'm not sure how the videos will turn out because it was quiet dark in the Outback. If they turn out OK, I will post a link to them later.

the pictures are great. looks like everyone had a grand time. Di

[Verandah Man]

None of the videos I took inside the Outback turned out, this is the only video that turned out half decent. The resolution quality was reduced when I loaded into my Webshots account. But it's better than nothing I guess? http://good-times.webshots.com/video/3076805960026317863KNEomb?vhost=good-times

[Verandah Man]

the pictures are great. looks like everyone had a grand time. Di


We really did Di. The restaurant closed at 9pm, but we didn't leave to go outside until 9:20, then finally around 10pm we made our way to our cars. I think we were probably back to the Ramada before the others even got out of the Outback parking lot........:rotfl:

[Verandah Man]

OK, that's it for me tonight. Lina is waiting to plug her laptop in now. See y'all tomorrow morning..........:wave2:

[goofyfreak]

Got home a few minutes ago. Gotta get in bed. 4:45 will come wayyyyy too early tomorrow. Loved the pics from tonight.:thumbsup2 We had a great time. Can't wait to see everyone again real soon.:grouphug:

[disgrits]

We had a great time, too! It was so much fun seeing Lori and Scott and the kids again (Lori is still a red hot mama.) And making new friends in Beth, Matthew, their girls, and Andy, Hazel, and Angelina was as awesome as I thought it would be. Beth and Matthew and the girls were a delight...I just hope they understood my accent. Andy is as nice in person as he is on this thread, and Hazel is a hoot. She had me laughing all night....well, Angelina helped with that by showing me a funny pic of her mom.And speaking of Angelina, I had the wonderful luck to sit next to her. Andy, she is absolutely a joy to be around. She engaged me in conversation, she looked me in the eye, and she was as sweet as can be. You and Hazel have done a fine job with her.:thumbsup2

I think a fun time was had by all.....Can't wait to do it again. I'll post pics in the morning. I have a precious one of Little Buzz Lightyear.:cool2:

[EPCOT_VA]

Hello everyone! We had a GREAT time at the DISmeet. As Andy said, even though it was the first time that we had met in person, it seemed like we had known each other for years. Our kids hit it off right away too! :thumbsup2

On the way home, I joked with Beth saying that Andy would have pics up before we even get home. :laughing: I was right! (and video too).

Here are a couple of more from this evening.

This is our first group shot.
First row: Hazel, Sarah & Megan

Oh, yeah, I wanted to mention the children. They were so well behaved! We were there quite a while and I swear, I never heard them. The girls all seemed to get along really well--like they had known each other for quite some time, and that little Harrison, well, he is just a heart stealer! I could eat him up with a spoon.

[disgrits]

I have big hair.

[Karen Mouse]

good morning everyone. Love all the photos - I wish we lived nearby and could make a dis meet:sad1:

Heather, Cath, Chris - lets all get together sometime:banana:

[Karen Mouse]

wont be on much today, I'm off now to feetch the robopet once I drop Ellis off at school, then the gym, then prepare for Ellis' friend coming for dinner and play aferschool, I'm in school this afternoon too organising a coffee meeting for the Mums, then taking Ellis to Beavers and dropping his friend off on the way. I might get back on by 10pm:lmao:

Have a great day people:goodvibes

ps - Did any of you watch "Little Britain" last night on your tv? I'd like your opinions of our UK humour:rolleyes1

[goofyfreak]

Good morning all. I am very jealous of Andy right now. He's up in the Ramada all tucked in bed sleeping and here I am alone and already awake. YAWN!!!!!!!!
It is all worth it though. We had such a great time. And the kids really were great. All the girls are already trying to make sleepover plans and Harrison was a giggle box as usual.
It really is like sitting down to dinner with people you have known for years. It never felt like it was the first time meeting some of the group. It makes me want Oct. 09 to get here even faster!
Well, better go get ready for work! Catch ya all later.:thumbsup2

[Verandah Man]

Good Morning All.........:wave:

Lori, I was awake at 4am, but managed to talk myself into going back to sleep until 5:30!!!!! :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

I'm trying to be as quiet as a church mouse so I don't wake Hazel and Lina up, they are both still ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZing away!!! :rotfl:

This feels strange, it is now 6am here, and I should be at Riverwinds, will have to make up for it later I guess......;)

Matt's camera takes much better pics than mine did, the inside group shot was amazing considering how dark it was inside the Outback.

Jay, the manager on duty and the girls who were our servers did an amazing job for us last night. We even told Jay how much we appreciated everything, and he went and got two pins for our servers as a reward for a job well done.

I wish we lived closer to y'all, last night was soooooooooooooooo much fun. Getting together with likeminded Disney people, is a "BLAST!!!!!"

As Harrison would sing, "You've Got a Friend in Me!!!" :goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes

[Verandah Man]

We had a great time, too! It was so much fun seeing Lori and Scott and the kids again (Lori is still a red hot mama.) And making new friends in Beth, Matthew, their girls, and Andy, Hazel, and Angelina was as awesome as I thought it would be. Beth and Matthew and the girls were a delight...I just hope they understood my accent. Andy is as nice in person as he is on this thread, and Hazel is a hoot. She had me laughing all night....well, Angelina helped with that by showing me a funny pic of her mom. And speaking of Angelina, I had the wonderful luck to sit next to her. Andy, she is absolutely a joy to be around. She engaged me in conversation, she looked me in the eye, and she was as sweet as can be. You and Hazel have done a fine job with her.:thumbsup2

I think a fun time was had by all.....Can't wait to do it again. I'll post pics in the morning. I have a precious one of Little Buzz Lightyear.:cool2:




Thanks Paige, Lina is our pride and joy!!!!!!! :thumbsup2

A Fredericksburg, VA morning FO

Cath--I gave Lori that hug, you asked me to give her, from you!!! ;)

[A fat english gent]

"Cath--I gave Lori that hug, you asked me to give her, from you!!! "

Did you give her the one Mike and i sent her?....:rolleyes1

Uh Oh Chris, did I miss that post on the thread. Well, I did give Lori a hug before we all departed last night, so that can be a hug from all the BOB'ers!!! ;) ;) ;)

[Verandah Man]

I was telling Paige last night, after driving through that traffic on I-95 going around DC, I decided to go home a different route using 301. I can only imagine what the traffic is like on a weekday in the DC area. Luckily, I've driven been back and forth to Florida many times, so I have learned different routes to take. Using 301 may take a little longer, but heck, we have all day to get home. Lina's cat has plenty of food and water down, she also has the radio on for company and the central air was left on, so we know she is comfy while she sleeps the day away........:upsidedow

I'm trying to be a good boy this morning and not walk over to the Waffle House two doors down from our motel. I think I better grab a Nature Valley bar before I give in to temptation........:laughing:

Later All.........:wave2:

[oybolshoi]

I have big hair.

:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Paige, you kill me. You look maahhhhhhhvelous! Everyone looks maahhhhhhhvelous! I'm so glad you guys all had a great evening. :goodvibes

Honestly, I'm so envious that ya'll ;) live close to other DISers and are able to get together and have mini DISmeets. There seem to be very few STL DISers around ... :sad2: Oh well, with my luck if I came across a Stinktown DISer that person would end up being some kind of psychotic, anti-food, book-hating freak and I'd never want to meet up anyway. :rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Maybe this summer Jay and I can crash Jeff's 4th of July DIS-Bash ... 400 miles isn't too far to travel for friends and fun, right? :goodvibes

Wish me luck ... this week is going to be an ugly one. Ever notice how that happens the week before you leave on a vacation? Oh well ... we leave for WDW in exactly 10 days!!! :cool1:

Have a great day! :thumbsup2

Seriously, great pics guys. :thumbsup2 Looks like y'all had a ton of fun. Aren't those DISmeets just the greatest? :banana: :banana:

The Wisconsin DISers plan to meet up again on October 25th to celebrate the one year mark. We found a happy medium between the SE Wisconsin DISers and Jen and Janice and are meeting at the Wisconsin Dells. Jeff's family, Cheryl's family and the Tuna and I will be staying at a great hotel with a waterpark on Saturday night and will meet up with Janice's & Jen's families on Sunday for lunch.

Any BOB crashers are welcome!!!:thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2

Bendy, have a good week at work girl. At least you'll get some work done today without emails from that pest from Wisconsin. I'm out :sick: today.

Mmmmmm, waffle house! A guilty vacation pleasure if there ever was one!

Although Jay and I aren't crazy about grits, we love the multitude of ways that Waffle House serves them ... cracks us up everytime we see it!

Smothered .... covered ... scattered ... peppered ... .. diced ... chunked ... topped ... I think I'm going to be sick. :laughing:

we also used to stroll around old town.:thumbsup2


You wouldn't recognise it now..it is so tacky. Rick and I went there after the repo looking for the Christmas Shop, but it had gone. Just lots of tacky souvenier shops. Mind you, the Coca Cola Genral store is still there.

[GOS]

A lot of those 192 properties have seen much better days! In 2001 I tooke 15 kids from our community to WDW and we stayed on the westside of 192 where everything was fairly new. It was nice and quiet too. The hotel was the Comfort Suites Maingate.

Does anyone remember The House of the Future, along the 192. Well it's finally gone. On our first trip, we stayed not far from there, the Park Inn, just on the junction with the 535(6)? and the 192. We had breakfast most days in The Olive Garden, just across the way and visited every factory outlet.:rotfl:

So true Heather. It's geared more towards Tweens and Teens now. Seemed like nothing but a big hangout for them and you're right, really tacky and run down!! Heather, do you remember when the general store sold 25 cent cokes? They later switched to Pepsi products and dumped the 25 centers. You would pay 50 cents for the soda and get a cardboard ticket. When you brought back the glass bottle and the ticket you would get 25 cents back. People would give our kids their empties with the ticket and they would return the bottles for the quater. Later they would spend them in the arcade. :laughing:

Hi All! We will be joining you for the cruise. We went on our first Disney cruise 2 years ago. Loved IT.Our group consists of Me- Tracy, DH- Tom, DS- Zac (15) and maybe DS Chris. Looking forward to getting to know everyone before the cruise.
Here is a picture from the cruise.
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y77/nrsldy/disneycruise20060012.jpg

Tracy...it looks like you're taking an "anniversary" cruise from the date on the photo!

Welcome aboard! We just got back late last night from meeting some of the great people on this cruise. It was so much fun getting together. We recognized our Verandah Man and family immediately from his many pic posts! It was great to meet them all.

I'm Beth. My husband Matthew posts as EPCOT VA. We have 2 daughters who will turn 12 and 10 on the cruise (Megan and Sarah).

[captchris]

Good morning everyone...

It looks like the "mid atlantic" DIS meet went very nice. I think we are the only DISers north of Andy.

I think its great that you all really had a good time. I am a lot more outgoing on here then I tend to be face to face. My wife is the social butterfly in our house, but I am sure when we all do meet either at the Rad, or on the ship, we will all click rather well.

[Tinkerbell.RN]

Lori...
Megan was so excited meeting Alex that she wanted to post on their site as soon as we got home! I told her to go to bed and she could do it in the morning. Well, that was about the first thing out of her mouth! So... I guess "my" post count on the boards will be going up quickly! She couldn't wait any longer for her own log-in now that she has actually met one of the girls!:goodvibes

Chris... it was truly amazing! The time flew by. Matthew went outside with the kids to feed the ducks (the biggest ducks I've ever seen!!). When they couldn't get back inside... that's when we realized the place was closed!:lmao: Well, we weren't the ONLY ones still inside, but definitely the biggest group! We chatted awhile longer on their doorstep. And, Andy was right...we probably weren't out of the parking lot (at least not very far!) when he posted!:thumbsup2

I can't wait to meet everyone else!

Beth I have to send out an apology to you and Lori if Rob butchered your names. When we were on our way home, re-hashing the fun of the night, he called you "Becky," and he has always had trouble with the name "Lori." He always wants to say "Laurie" or "Laura" (He has even done this to family members who he has known for years and years.) And I think that Angelina probably never heard her name out of his mouth.....:rotfl: And he probably called Matthew, "Mike." Now as for Andy and Hazel, because of the infamous you tube video (and the pic that Angelina shared with us), he'll never forget or mess up their names. :rotfl:

That sounds like a lot of fun.

I think I am going to book the Rad soon for 10/23. More than likely we will arrive in plenty of time to enjoy most of the day in Cape Canaveral. Most of the ideal flights are usually in the morning.

I would really like to be at the DIS meet by the pool on our Cruise eve. That would be much better than looking at surfboards at RonJon's! Especially after 14 months of chatting on here!

LsuMarine, I see you lurking.:cool2:

Welcome aboard! I can't remember if I mentioned this to you folks specifically or just a general announcement. On page 1 of our thread all of our names are listed. Since I started this chapter of the thread, if you would like your names listed on the first page, send me a PM with the information you would like. Most people include everything you listed, plus state of residence/country of residence.

I am Christian. I sometimes go by Chris, but I think there are 2 other Chris' on the cruise so I am going by my given name to avoid confusion. :lmao: People call me both! Travelling with me is DW Elaine, DD Samantha 9, DS James, (Jay) 7.

[Tinkerbell.RN]

Boy you are not kidding about fast moving. My Dh's only comment about going on another cruise was to not make him wear a suit ( you know I am retired). He always throws in the you know..... statement, so it is a running joke around here, when he is not into something.
After deciding to go back to school and get my masters in nursing edu, I will be so ready to not study for awhile.

HOW ABOUT THE CHIEFS!!party:
THEY FINALLY WON.

Tracy...
I thought by your "name" that you were a nurse... what area? I work in pediatrics. I have my master's degree in pediatrics (Clinical Nurse Specialist...but I never left the floor!) I have thought about adding the education aspect and teaching...but it's too much time and energy when the kids have so much going on!

(I think they'll use super glue for this one though!) :laughing:

I just caught up on the posts and Paige's pictures. I almost feel guilty to admit that I slept in until 8:30 AM this morning. :rolleyes1

This is my last day off from a very rare three day weekend. Early mornings begin again tomorrow. We had a blast at the Great Wolf Lodge over the weekend. Topping everything off with the DISmeet was the perfect touch. The girls were a bit unsure before we got there. They thought it was going to be a bunch of "grown ups" sitting around talking. It didn't take long for all the kids to hit it off. They're so excited that they already know other kids that will be on the cruise. Here's a couple more pics of the kids feeding the ducks.

Good morning all. I am very jealous of Andy right now. He's up in the Ramada all tucked in bed sleeping and here I am alone and already awake. YAWN!!!!!!!!
It is all worth it though. We had such a great time. And the kids really were great. All the girls are already trying to make sleepover plans and Harrison was a giggle box as usual.
It really is like sitting down to dinner with people you have known for years. It never felt like it was the first time meeting some of the group. It makes me want Oct. 09 to get here even faster!Well, better go get ready for work! Catch ya all later.:thumbsup2

Megan said this morning that we should go THIS October instead of next...it's sooner ("only 2 days away"). The girls were asking why we couldn't meet ALL the Disboarders! I said that would probably take a cruise ship to fit them all!

Anyway... it was great to meet who we did. Looking forward to meeting everyone else!

I have a sick kid home today. Last evening Jay was complaing of a headache and had a pretty high fever. He seems to be doing better, but want to give it 24 hrs of fever free before sending him to school. He is playing PS2 and waching Go Diego Go for now, but doesn't quite have the energy he normally has. I will be heading to work this morning then hang out with him at home this afternoon while Elaine switches with me.

One of our favorite pictures from our last cruise. Samantha and Jay with Peter Pan and Wendy but Jay was with his favorite character at Till We Meet Again...

Ok, off to work now. Talk to y'all in a few hours.

great hotel with a waterpark on Saturday night [/COLOR]and will meet up with Janice's & Jen's families on Sunday for lunch.

Any BOB crashers are welcome!!!:thumbsup2 :thumbsup2 :thumbsup2

That's actually what we were doing Friday night and Saturday night. Megan and I were at the waterpark Sunday morning while Matthew packed up and Sarah fended off a headache. It was a great indoor water park. Then, we finished up some Adventures on a "Magic Quest" game that they have in the main hotel area. Between walking up stairs for the water rides and up and down stairs for the Magic Quest, not to mention all the swimming, I'm totally beat! It was quite a workout!:scared:

Beth I have to send out an apology to you and Lori if Rob butchered your names. When we were on our way home, re-hashing the fun of the night, he called you "Becky," and he has always had trouble with the name "Lori." He always wants to say "Laurie" or "Laura" (He has even done this to family members who he has known for years and years.) And I think that Angelina probably never heard her name out of his mouth.....:rotfl: And he probably called Matthew, "Mike." Now as for Andy and Hazel, because of the infamous you tube video (and the pic that Angelina shared with us), he'll never forget or mess up their names. :rotfl:

That's okay... Matthew's wires got crossed and he tried to call Lina "Carolina" instead of "Angelina"! And he's the one that usually remembers names! I think he just misses things on the boards because he isn't on everyday and usually doesn't try to read back much! He got all the names right when I quizzed him on the way home.

As for me, I can now put faces to names and names to a couple of board names now!:goodvibes
