MMM I can smell the blueberry pancakes cooking right now

Good Morning all. Overnight a cold front moved in here. We have gone from a mild 32 w/ no wind yesterday to a NASTY 8 degrees, (Wind Chill -14) gusts of 50 mph. Low tonight is predicted to be one. I think I need to go plan a vacation somewhere warm. Any one have any suggestions?

BJ,

It has to be with the blueberry's inside of said pancakes NOT on top ! Plus it has to be REAL and WARM maple syurp. We have a new resturant that has the pancake part but not the syurp part, I'm going to bring my own syurp. DH just rolled his eyes, he eats anything.

BYOS (bring your own SYRUP) too funny

I have heard of BYOBooz and I have even had backyard parties and have ask people to BYOChair...but syrup is a new one for me LOL!!!!!!

But then again, I have been known to bring my own Fat Free dresssings to restraunts before...(just put it is a small container..in my purse, no one ever notices....

Okay I have to STOP and get ready for church!!!!

I think I need DIS therapy!!!!! I'm addicted to this board!!! I need help

How can it be sooo cold up there and so warm down here ?? Before MAD gets on with a smart --- comment I know I'm in the south but that is a HUGE difference.

Well just looked at the weather and it's 50 now with a high of 61.

Hello All,

This is my first post. It has taken me days to read through the threads and now that I'm on page 101, I need to ask a question.

For all of those veteran disney cruisers, please tell me honestly what the average person wears to the casual dinners? I read blue jeans allowed, but what do people really wear. We just want to fit in and not try to make any fashion statements good or bad! I'll be traveling with DW, DK 7 and DK 4 both boys.

DD.... Tyler

is DD for Disney daughter or Disney dad ?

This is my first cruise so I can't say what other people have worn but I can tell you what I'm bring.

I'm bring nicer shirts (no tee-shirts) and capri's, Hubby will have kakis and polo shirts, DD will have skirts and nicer shirts. This is for dinner only we are a very casual family.

Hope this helps a little.

Mic

 

[Micday]

So I assume this is your first cruise too. We are very excited to that it's only 20 days away !

I can't believe you read all 101 pages !

Okay, forgive me if you are a real poster and are truly joining our thread, but I want to know if this is really Mike? Being a new poster, just joining and then bringing up one of my most hot buttons, jeans at dinner I can not but to think this is a MAD joke. Again forgive me if I am wrong..... Until I find out, no comment....

 

[Micday]

Tink I did not know that was a sore spot for you !! I'm glad I found out now. I LOVE jeans but I was going to wear my capri's (made with jean material) with a nice shirt is that appropiate ?

 

[Micday]

Tink,

I do not think that is MAD. Maybe he's shy like me ?

 

[ranidayz]

My kids are planning on wearing jeans to dinner -- they like pairing nice tops with jeans to throw people off --- i do not wear jeans since the last kid -- so I'm not even taking any. In fact, every pair of pants I'm taking is black == just in different styles - five pair of black pants --

I'm bringing shorts (not for dinner) but I doubt I'll actually put them on!

AS we're planning our day at MK - does anyone know about fast passes? do they still have them?

NOW COME ON MIC.......... Did you not read my e-mails...... All 200 pages I actually placed in CAPS, NO JEANS.......

Okay let me give everyone the TINK hot buttons.....
1) people taking pictures during the shows

2) people saving multiple chairs by the pool, knowing they will never sit their "bee hinds" in them, because they are in the water..... You only need once chair to save towels....

3) people who grab 10 chairs on Castaway and never once come back to them and I have sat in the flat one watching for hours.

4) people who think because one of their family members sat in the hammock, it is now their families for the rest of the day. Even though my family does not like them.

5) people who act as if their little girl is the only one on the ship who likes Cindy.... Thank goodness my DD likes the rebel princesses.

6) people who take 6 picture combinations in line with the
characters (do you really hate the people in your family that much, they have to be excluded in your picture?

7) people who can not follow the simple dress code at dinner. If you want to dress down, then take your tail to Topsiders, Order RS or go to one of the pick up windows.

8) people who over-sleep and hang up on Mickey's wake up calls and holds up the entire ship (oh, that's us)....:rotfl2:

Again, if you are real, Taylor, sorry..... and
