09/12/10 - DVCers Take Over the Wonder (S.S. Member Cruise 2010) - Thread #2

[dvc deernut]

JUST A COUPLE OF PHOTOS I STUCK TOGETHER. THATS WHERE WE WALK OUT TO. I COULDNT FIND THE SPOT WHERE THE SUNKEN BOAT MOTOR IS. I WALKED AROUND BUT COULDNT FIND THE RIGHT SHADOW UNDER THE WATER. FIGURES I HAVE MY UNDERWATER CAMERA AND COULDNT FIND THAT SPOT WHERE THEY HANG OUT. THE FISH BETWEEN MY FEET FOLLOWED ME AND CHASED THE OTHERS AWAY HE STAYED WITH ME UNTIL I WALKED BACK IN. WE FOLLOWED THAT RAY, HE SWAM BETWEEN US. I ONLY HAD GOGGLES SO IT WAS HARD TO STAY UNDERWATER LONG. I WOULD HOLD MY BREATH AND DUCK WITH THE MOTION OF THE WATER I COULD GET GREAT SHOTS OF FISH I HAD TO WATCH WHERE I STEPPED THE BOTTOM WAS LIKE THE 2 PHOTOS ON THE LEFT , THE WATER WAS UP TO MY CHEST , THE WIND MADE IT A BIT WAVY, SO IT WAS HARD TO TAKE PHOTOS.

OH VICKI THE FISH LIKED MY BLUE CROCS!! HEEHEEHEE!!!!

Happy Anniversary Chris and Bobby!

 

[dopeygirl76]

I have been missing all the chatting!!! Things have gone a little insane at work. My friend and coworker had her last day in our office Wednesday and I offically assume my new duties Monday - although they already started calling and emailing me yesterday - my day off!!!! I went to see my BFF - she is expecting her second baby Oct 18th!!!

I took a photo of my toes in the water at CC because I was amazed that you could see through the water - the only other beach I have ever been to was Wildwood NJ and I was too afraid to go in the water because you couldn't see anything!!!

I still have to get my photos onto photobucket - life is catching up with me!!! We had decided prior to cruising that was no way we could do next years member cruise - but DH is worried that a regular Disney cruise won't be as awesome as the Member's Cruise - and now you are adding the 20th anniversary celebration - we are in debt now......just booked our airfare for our April trip....can we add more?????

Oh I must go to work and think about Disney....that is all I have been doing is planning our April trip because I have entered my Post Disney Depression....anyone joining me....this will turn into our support group!!!

Happy Belated Anniversary Chris and Bob!!!!!

Thanks for the Anniversary Wishes Everyone!


And yes, life has definitely been interfering with my dis time. And, my MIL has been with us this last week. And it is Homecoming week for our school. Becca was diagnosed with Tonsillitis on Monday so she has been sick. Brooke has been busy with volleyball games. And I am still having back troubles and started physical therapy and yesterday I had to have an MRI. NOT FUN!!!!!!!

Hopefully next week will slow down a little bit and I can get back on and do some stuff.

Chris,

Sorry to hear about back issues. I had them a few years ago and thankfully PT worked. Strong flexible hamstrings and strong abs are the key. Contract abs when you stand and sit that will help. Took me about 3 months of therapy to feel good. A nice massage is nice as well.


So who is calling on Sat? My principal is very reluctant to letting me take the time. Even though it is my earned time I guess I can't take it when I want. I need to look into what they pay the boat captains from wilderness lodge to MK. Doubt I can make my salary.

Friends of ours are running the half marathon this weekend. Jealous! Not about the run but the activities after the run. Food and drink in epcot. Oh and that I am here in maryland and they will be in the place where dreams come true.

Have a great weekend everyone. Good luck to those that are calling. Make sure you stretch those fingers.

Scott

When you call tomorrow tell them you want to use the 53 points you have left in your Dec 2010 use year and borrow from your Dec 2011 use year to pay for the cruise. We have a December use year, also, and I always get so confused! You can borrow points from the following use year. So you would be ok to use the remainder Dec 2010 points and then borrow from Dec 2011.

We had a balcony cabin on this cruise and it was nice, but I'd be just fine with an oceanview or an inside stateroom. We just don't spend enough time in our stateroom to justify paying that much extra for a balcony. We treated ourselves this time because it was my b-day and our anniversary. Hope I helped answer your questions!!

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Shawn, are you looking up those "stupid laws"? I've heard of those. I just looked them up for Indiana and apparently it's against the law to bathe in the winter time! GOOD THING everybody breaks THAT law!

Happy belated anniversary! Yikes, that is a hectic week. Sorry to hear Becca's not feeling well. Yeah, back problems NOT FUN at all. I hope your PT gets you on the mend soon.

We or I should say Wally will be calling in tomorrow. Sorry to hear your principal is giving you a hard time about taking your vacation when you want it.

I did not know that! Did you know that in Florida, it is illegal to fart in a public place on Thursdays after 6pm? I will be filing charges against my brother...that's it, he's going down
