I'm not sure about the class 4 v class 10 Terri. :confused3 I would get a large gb card that matches what your camera needs. Although I can check tomorrow with a friend who runs a camera store and let you know. Can you pm or email me your number so I can get you what ever I find out?

I sent you a pm.
 

So, I had to go pick up more supplies for my FE gifts today. :rotfl2:

Have to give some props to Walmart here. I bought something there yesterday and didn't notice the huge tear in the bag that my stuff was put in. When I got the bags out of the car at home, I noticed that the bag was torn and one of my items wasn't in the bag.

I went back to the store and asked if it was found at the register or turned in and it hadn't been. It had to have been lost between the register and my car. They replaced it for me at no charge to me. It was only an $8 item, so it wasn't a huge deal for them.

When I went to Michaels, I asked at the register about the teacher discount they were advertising and if it applied to homeschoolers. He said it did and I asked what kind of proof they needed. He said that there wasn't really anything that homeschoolers had as a rule and if I said that I was a homeschool mom he'd take my word for it because I had an honest face. LOL I love it when places don't make me jump through hoops to prove that we homeschool! So, I got an extra 15% off my bag of goodies! :woohoo: He was really sweet and also mentioned that if I had coupons for Joanne's that they would take those coupons as well.

So, I had some great customer service today! It was almost like being at Disney!

Hello everyone. :wave2:

Just got back from the D23 expo/DL/DCA/mini-dismeet with Jen & DH.

Everything was awesomesauce :thumbsup2

Details (with pics) to follow...:3dglasses
 
So, I've been following the thread on the cruise boards about the new port arrivals/opening time issues. Here's what seems to be happening ...

The terminal opens at 11am, or just a few minutes before. If you arrive much earlier, apparently they tell you to go somewhere else and come back at 11.

DCL has said that if you arrive earlier than your chosen Port Arrival time, you may be asked to wait outside until your window opens. It doesn't seem that they've done this to anyone yet. They are allowing people into the terminal building earlier than their times, but your arrival time is tied to your boarding number. So, if you have a later time, even if you arrive early, you may be given a higher number and have to wait to board.

Sometimes you may be Pixie Dusted and given a lower number by the CM checking you in, but don't count on that happening.

Many people have reported that they had an arrival time around 12 or 12:30. They arrived, checked in, got a boarding number, but the embarkation process is now going so quickly that they are frequently doing "open boarding" and people have been walking right on the ship.

So, if you have an 11 am time, you may wait around a bit, but it seems like the 12:30 folks are walking right on regularly.

Reports are that the terminal building is no longer crowded and the embarkation process has been streamlined.

Sounds like things are going well at the port! :woohoo:
