Hey all,

We should all have an entire suits made with denim, tie and all. Dresses for the ladies. We can all wear them on Formal night, or on Tink's birthday (maybe that's the same night). It can't be comfortable for us, but well worth the reaction.

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!​

Great little tune Rani...

We got back from Denver last night...I would say we had a fun trip, but if you asked Ron, he would more in likely say other wise LOL....after all he chauffeured a car load of shopping crazed women around for most of the weekend.. Poor guy...he was a trooper, until the end... and then he had had it
but...on the other hand, I think ( I hope) we have all we need for our trip, and now I can start packing!!! the girls are out of school today,( Emily has to work this afternoon though).. but hopefully we can get started..wish me luck!!!!
Too all of you who are either done or have a good start on it...Great Job !!!! For me it is probably actually better that I don't start to early..because by the time it came time to close the suitcase..I would be worring and wondering if I remembered to packed this and that!!??? LOL!!!

Our poor little pooch will probably start chewing up our suitcases, when he sees them come out again!!!!! LOL

We still as if yet have not received any cruise docs... I am not worried, as I'm sure our TA probably has them..I guess as long as we get them before the end of next week..all should be good

I still need to do the online customs..
but Tink help me on this one...we can't do it yet or can we!!????

Fieste,
FUN POD's!!!!!!...I have always thought that the water Trampoline looked like so much fun,....how deep is the water there?
We still haven't made any real plans as far as excursions go, we will probably just wing it

Hope everyone has a great Monday!!!!

I started the tidying up and vaccuuming and cleaning last night......probably still won't get done by the time we leave.

I think we're never getting to page 116!

Rani,

Not bad at all for someone that (I assume) does not celebrate Christmas. Must be because you can't avoid the songs that time of year, whatever your faith.

Yep, same with us. Started putting a few things in suitcases yesterday and the dog got that look of concern. Like I mentioned before, he hates being left at home.

P.S. See Fig Fan, getting to the top of the next page is easy.

Haha! I grew up in Idaho and Wash State -- it's my obligation to know all the songs!

FIY,

I just got off the phone with two different CM's of Disney. Both talked to their supervisors about the Bahama Immagration Form. It is now done online for you. In other words you do not have to do anything if you do the online check-in per the CM's.
Hope this helps anyone like me waiting to fill out that last form.

So do they print it and we sign it or we print it and sign it after the information is in the computer? What I posted is what the CM told me as well. I just hate to get to port and have to fill out the one form that is the pain in the bu-- to fill out.... They should have addressed this with a note inside of our documents instead of going through all this he say she say. Okay, I am loosing it a little with DCL and organization..... Last set of documents came out with a different name and reservation number to my address. When I call them, they said, computer glech.... I suppose we will still be stuck filling out the customs declaration forms at the end of the trip though. Why didn't they change this after our trip...... Work out your new way of doing stuff after my trip......... Anyone else getting a little nerve wrecked..... Maybe it is because I am a huge planner and a control freak, the reason I am a Disney Addict..... and not knowing the whole picture is placing me on edge..... Still waiting for the up-grade fairy...... Still waiting for the tux. Guy just contacted me now and said it was on it's way....

 

[Micday]

Tink,

No form to fill out nor to sign per both CM's (Bahama form only other forms still have to be filled out). They said the form was the same info that you filled out on the check in process. Using the information form plus your signed Disney contract and you are done. They said it was a wasted form due to the information on the Bahama form being the same as the other two forms.

I'm I clear, I tend to ramble so if rambling sorry.

Hope to Tux's make it ! Glad to hear from you, miss you.

Yea, our documents finally made it to Vermont!! Here is our POD. Travis really enjoyed the parfait in Parrot Cay during embarkation. I think I'll have one this year.

[ranidayz]

Documents arrived in MD --- I think I was expecting a mickey-gram -- it was just two envelopes --- no big deal.....all we have to wait for now is the trip....

 

[needacruz]

Hello all. This board seems to be a lot quieter lately. How many pages are we supposed to get to before the trip? 150?

Well, we got our docs in NJ on Friday and I'm almost completely packed

good job on being almost packed! I have started checking my lists against what's in the suitcase and writing the reverse lists -- what still has to GO into the suitcases (and which suitcases - but that's just another thing I do...)

Yeah - folks -- we have a long way to go to reach our rather lofty goal!

 

[Figment_Fan]

Recieved our docs in Michigan today. Mike, easy for you to turn the page. I'm sure this post won't do it. Long day. Going to go to bed and get up at 5a.m. I have been really good about getting a morning walk in at least 3 days per week for an hour.

With the treadmill, and headphones, I am also catching up on many missed episodes of Stargate. Trying to get in some semblance of shape. It AIN'T workin' unless of course you include round as being a shape.

Gee, maybe I can lose some weight on the cruise.

Can I count getting up and going to the buffet as part of the mileage for a walk???

Have a good night all.

John

Am I the only one who hasn't gotten cruise docs yet?? Our neighbors who are coming with us got theirs last week and I haven't gotten anything yet! I guess this is good practice on patience and non instant gratification for me!

Rachel,

I don't know if you've noticed that we're a little bit "excited" about the cruise? So yesterday we got antsy and called Disney -- not the TA -- and got the UPS tracking number for the documents.....of course, then we spent the day tricking each other that the truck was there....ringing the doorbell and running...stuffing fake envelopes and carrying them in....it was a riot here yesterday until we looked outsite and TWO UPS trucks going opposite directions were blocking the whole street....it was hysterical!

​

You know the old saying -- A watched UPS truck never arrives!!!

as far as Ron and I go, I have most everything we are taking hanging in the closet together so shouldn't be to bad to get it figured out...

Rani...thanks for the date update LOL!!!! My whole family looks forward to it every morning, you are keeping us on track...

Won't be long, and we will be in single digits...and here I set with my pre-cruise weight loss goal... still in double digits LOL!!!

Hope everyone has a good day
