Good Morning Mary and Mark and All. It's a foggy morning here in Maine but the sun is trying to peek through. The weather man says it will be in the mid 70's today.
Last night Nancy and I went to Home Depot and got our hanging plants for the front door. We got the same as last year Newginie Inpanients. They are good in the early morning sun and the heat of the midday.The ones we had last year lasted all summer.
Mary do you know if Joan sent in the spreadsheet ref the group seating on the cruise?
Well today is my friday off to work this afternoon and I have Monday and Tuesday off.
Jone if your on line today I hope your having a great time at the World. Say hi to Mickey for us.
Everybody have a great Sunday.

Good morning everyone - happy Monday!

Back to work for me but we had a great weekend. The zoo was packed yesterday but we had gotten there early and had seen everything we wanted to but the time the crowds got bad. Mark did some more gardening in the afternoon while I took a nap.

Dan I don't think Joanne has seen in the spreadsheet yet. Typically I think they only need that a month or so out so she has some time yet.

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning all.

We had a great week end and I am exhausted. Took Mom & Sis to the airport at 4:15 this am.

The weather was very hot but no rain. Port Orleans was nice, but a little older than what we are used to. I requested a room close to the buses and we were way in the back. Oh well, it just took us a little longer to get to the bus. The parks were crowded, I can't wait until Sept!!! We hit all 4 parks in 3 days. I sure missed the boys helping me push the wheel chair!!! But it was all worth it, as we pulled in to Magic Kingdom on the bus my Mom says" I never thought I would be back here" So this sappy one teared up but I didin't let her see me.

The new Toy Story ride is fun, but the line................It said 60 minutes. All fast passes were gone so we had 2 hours before Fantasmic. So we get on line. It was 2 hours and we missed Fantasmic. There are only 24 cars and only one comes over to the handicap side so you have to wait forever. It's a cute ride though.


Have a great Monday.

hey just checking in. Not much doing here just shopping.

 

[cobbler]

I think June is the month when we can start doing the online check-in and getting Palo and shore excursions booked. Granted it may not be until the end of the month but it is this month at least

I am so excited! Just booked our airfare on Spirit out of Det for $35 each way! With taxes and fees it was only $200 for Amanda & I. Hope everyone has a happy monday!

 

[tinytink]

It's a good thing you held out on getting the airfare. Congrats, I was really happy when we got $108RT on JetBlue for last year's member cruise.

 

[acourtwdw2]

What excursions is everyone looking forward to? I just like to float at castaway cay and im thinking about a spa treatment.

 

[WDWLVR]

Good morning everyone - happy Tuesday!

Amanda & Annette - great job on the air fair!

As for Castaway Cay we are looking at booking a couples cabana massage. We did a couples massage in April on the ship so now we're looking at doing one on the island. The rest of the time we're just going to relax. We'll bring our snorkel gear and hopefully have some great snorkeling at Serenity Bay like we did in April.

 

[JsMom2]

I'm definitely going to book a treatment in one of the Spa Villas. I was thinking about a boat rental for Castaway Cay, but I think we'll just play that by ear.

 

[JOANNEL]

Wow great air fare. Certainly pays to live near a big city. We can't get any where fom here with out paying a fortune.

The only res we are going to make is brunch and maybe dinner. We just like to relax on the beach. We rented bikes last year that was fun, but hot. I have never had a massage, it kind of weirds me out......

I slept so good last night, zonked out.


Did any one see the Osmonds on PBS? DVR'd it so I have only watched half. I so wish they would tour near here.

This week our neighbor is graduating from HS. So this summer is going to be so hectic. Lots going on.


Have a great Tuesday....

 

[WDWLVR]

Joanne - not only did I watch the Osmond special but Mark bought me the DVD. Part of my youth! I have a friend from work who was in the audience in Vegas and when they played it the first time on our local PBS station she was also in the studio to take pledges. I wish the family would tour the country as well. We went and saw Donny when he performed here about 8 years ago and we saw him in Joseph during its run in Chicago.

 

[JOANNEL]

He is just too sweet.

 

[WDWLVR]

He is just too sweet.

He is isn't he? I'm a lucky lady.

 

[JOANNEL]

Since DVC can't figure out what to do maybe Mark can give husband lessons!!!! We ladies can sit by the pool and be waited on!
