09/28/2002 Cruise

[papa]

Cathy hope that you get taken care of real soon. Need you in tip top condition for the cruise. Maybe I can get a large supply of stuff to keep us going. I could open my own pharmacy

Need to get a scooter for the trip. Then it would be like wdw with the little four wheel scooters with the bike flags on them. I could run around with my little flag waving yelling"get out of the way" like the blue hair set that I am soon to be a member of.

Karen the capt marvins group thingy starts at ten. You have to be at capt marvins earlier here is the link with the info.capt marvin Mike

PS I believe that you need to be there early and bring your owm towels. Just checked the email that they sent us and you need to be there at 9:15 with towels and sunscreen.

In case any of you guys were thinking of having pictures taken and get copies when you get home (for other family members),
you may be interested in this thread....

"After several phone calls and emails trying to get a 'copyright release waiver' for our upcoming cruise pictures I have decided
to post the latest address for those interested to save you the hassle.

http://www.image.com/guest-postcruise.htm

Once you click your appropriate cruise ship link, there is an authorization letter from "Image Photo Services" waiver to copy your cruise portraits or have those Christmas cards made."

In the past I had a hard time getting reprints or copies and I'm glad I found this thread.

Happy birthday Chrystina! Hope you are doing something fun to celebrate the day.

Hope everyone is starting to feel better -- get all that stuff out of your systems now so you will be 100% during the cruise!

Elaine -- congrats about the sales your DH made!

Happy belated birthday Kathy!

Here is some cake for the birthday girls!

Enjoy getting the kids off to school everyone who is starting now. Schools in NJ don't start until after Labor Day. My older one is in her last week of day camp.

Here's my wish for a new invention: a self cleaning shower! Just got done spraying mine down -- ick!

 

[Kelsie]

I wanted to let you all know that my Sept. 21st documents arrived today so you are next

Sorry I will miss meeting all of you!

 

[Beth E. (NJ)]

Public apology to Chrystina, who probably thinks I'm a weirdo by now! I tried to send her a cyber birthday card today, but the system was very strange and after I sent the card it told me that I sent only one copy, which was to myself. I went back to recheck it and tried to send it again. I'm still not sure if either of those copies went through to her. I got things in my email saying that I had received a card from me -- very odd!

I think I fixed the problem, but I am hoping that Chrystina only got one card from me and not three.

Oops!

 

[RellingTwin]

Kelsie, Thanks for letting us know about the documents! Nice to know we could be seeing them in about a week!

Mike(Papa) remember how LONG the wait seemed when you started this thread???? And here we are a week from getting docs!!! IS EVERYONE GETTING EXCITED????????????????????

Beth..LOL on the shower invention. I want a "ride on" vacuume cleaner!

Karen, I would recommend booking via the internet. Let them know you are with the "DIS group". You may also mention my last name (Jager). It is the 10 am half day trip.

 

[mlshields]

Goofynut-

As always, you came through for us!!!!!! Thanks for the waiver. I emailed them about 4 weeks ago and still have not received a response.

My family will be grateful for the reproductions!!!!!

See you soon (Doesn't that sound great )

Lauren

Hello to all of you!!! Thank you for the birthday wishes...they are appreciated.

Fifty is Nifty!!!

Happy Belated Birthday to Papa....we didn't know or we would have given you a big birthday Hello.

Beth E: I did get three but that's ok. I didn't mind at all. Thank you very much.

Well everyone, St Louis was nice, but I was so busy with the new computer software that I didn't get to the shopping like I wanted to. So, I am hoping that while I am in Germany or London I can find a couple of formals for the boat trip. Sounds like everyone has something really nice and I don't want to look funny in sandals and shorts. I leave on Saturday, suppose to be back on the 31st of Aug. But I get to stay on orders and be in Montgomery til the 20th Sep. Then off to Atlanta to pick up Dennis to bring him home to Alabama for 6 days. I probably won't see him during that 6 days as he will be on the golf course with his cronies. Oh well, he will be somewhat captive on the boat.....payback time.

Beth E: I wish for a self cleaning shower and toilet, but the riding vacumn cleaner sounds interesting. Just go humming along through the house.....the guys have their lawnmower, we should have something like that too.


Everyone stay healthy, safe and smiling. See ya when I get back from Germany. I sure hope I get to fly with one of the aerovac units on a real world mission. Would be totally cool in my book. Drive Dennis nuts.

See ya later

I was just thinking if some of you were real adventurous you would want to rent jet skis in Key West and go on a jeep tour in Cozumel? I think I could be game if someone else wanted to do these things. I bet I could not talk John into either, but who knows. We can both drive standard shifts as all 3 of our cars are standard shifts--I love them--we have a scooped up PT Cruiser, a small Beamer and an MR 2. Chloe will not want to leave the Oceaneer Club so I do not have to worry about her.
A penny for all your thoughts.
Hope you all stay well!
It will not be long!

Happy Birthday Chrystina.

Fifty is really nifty from someone who knows.

Hi everyone,

I hope that everyone is feeling better. I am having a terrible time posting messages for the last day or two. I post them and they are going somewhere in cyberspace. Plus AOL keeps booting me off the computer.

I have also been following the thread regarding the 8/17 family that needed help so desparatlely. What a wonderful Magical ending for that family. It brought tears to my eyes as I read how a CM from DCL went so out of their way to help make the vacation happen for that family. We often hear so many negative things in this world that it was such a beautiful story about how there are still so many kind and caring people in the world.

Well, won't to send this on its way before AOL ends up disconnecting me again.

Nancy

 

[RellingTwin]

Chrystina, glad you had a nice birthday! Have a SAFE trip!

Donna, the JEEP tour sounds like a blast! We were trying to decide between it, and another snorkel trip. Then we found an outfit that would take us snorkeling, and my brother in law diving at the same time. Since he is only going to dive one time on this trip (due to ear problems) he wanted it to be Cozumel. I'll bet there are some others who would like to go!

Nancy..wasn't that the greatest story! I just LOVE it when that kind of stuff happens. The people on this board are some of the most wonderful people, loving, giving people you would ever want to meet. I hope TinkerbellMagic and her family have a wonderful trip!

Everyone, keep a watch out for "Bette". I "recruited" her from another board and invited her to join us. I am hoping she will post here to say hello!

 

[power_alaska]

Ok ... Must post enuf to get DisVet status!!!

Alaska Weather = Wet & rainy - Cold too.

Chrystina is right about Alabama -- Golf with my cronies!!!
She could play too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ~ SWEET THING!!!
Welcome to AARP!
Does that mean we get "double discounts" at Day's Inn now?

No runners?
Mary - Earned my Triathalon Shirt a LONG time ago. Not into that kind of S&M anymore. Just trying to keep my heart ticking now!!!

HH&GB to all!!!!!!!!!!!

[@GoofyNut]

Just wondering ... If we want to use a Disney Magic picture for the newspaper, do we need to also send them a release? Never did this before and was thinking of trying to get a good formal picture for the newspaper (still a maybe) for our 30th anniv.

Is it me or is waiting for this Cruise just like waiting for Christmas? It's starting to kill me.

Check back later .....

 

[papa]

Just like Christmas Cathy, you can't hurry it up or peek inside the wrapping paper Chrystina that was my DW's birthday(Kathy) on the 1st. Mine is the 22nd of this month. You have to watch the signature at the end of the post. We both post under papa. Mike

 

[@GoofyNut]

DonnaMD ... Check your PM cause I sent you a request.

I saw on another thread ... there are 2 people that just broke their "foot" and will be sporting casts on the 9-28 Cruise. Hope that's not someone in our DIS Cruisears family.

OK I want my documents ... I also want to be packed but you can't have everything!

Check on you all later.....

 

[disvaclub92]

Hello all,

@Goofynut - I found another beach in Cozumel if you are interested, instead of Mr. Sanchos. Nachi Cocum is the beach. I heard they have a pool, hot tub, and a beach - unlike Mr. Sanchos who just has a beach and a hot tub. <Sorry I have kids who get tired of one water and want another.> If you want I will PM you all the sites, I just want to chill on a quiet beach and drink a margarita or two.

I would really like that self-cleaning shower and toilet too - how about an automatic trip packer - so when I buy stuff for the trip it - just goes in the suitcase and it gets checked off a packing list. <Dream on>.

Take Care - <anxiously awaiting the documents>

Do we really have 45 days left? I am ready to leave NOW.

Hello all!!!! First things first happy Birthday to Mike and Chrystina and anybody else I missed. TYLOX!!!! I use to make that stuff before they took it to PR, and it is potent stuff, watch yourself Mike and get well. One question has been on my mind how do the "powers" stand to be apart for so long and how long has it been since you have been together? Heat here is brutal again. That tease from Canada was way too short. Wish we could do the jeep ride but since I tore up my knee, and reinjured it on the banana boat ride at CC, and Barbara's back has been acting up no adventure ride for us. We really wanted to and looked at it long and hard but don't want to risk it even with the brace. Has any body learned about Cozumel I would love to walk around for a bit and get a little culture/flavor? Any good web sites that anybody has found? Maps would be very nice, I only have a brief history. I agree with most everybody it's feeling more and more like waiting for Christmas. Come on September 28th! Be well and we will catch up with everyone later.

 

[thesorcerer1]

Howdy again! Has anybody asked for this authorization at Shutters? Wouldn't it so much better if they just gave it to us onboard? Heck we are purchasing the pictures there, and not cheaply I might add. Does anybody else have a problem with the sizes they print for? Thats all for tonight I promise! BYE
