Happy Birthday Bill!

OK ...last version of the list in now in your mail boxes. If any changes need to be made, let me know as soon as possible!

SEE YOU IN 7 DAYS (some of you in 6!)

 

[VondaP]

One week from today. I can't believe it! We are very ready. I had my endoscopy Thursday (not as bad as I thought it would be) and am waiting on the results.

We are staying at the Hard Rock Hotel before our cruise, but decided against visiting any of the parks again. We, instead, made reservations for Cirque on Friday. I hear it's fantastic.

See you all soon,

Vonda

Hard to beleive its less than a week till we will be on the Magic. The big question at our house is what happens because of the hurricane. My daughter was given the teen cruise in Cozumel as a 13th birthday present from her aunts and is worried she wont get to use it.

What do you think the intinerary will be if things remain like they are now?

 

[RellingTwin]

BagerBoy, it will be 11 days before we are in Cozumel. Unless another storm comes along, we will have no problems in Cozumel Isadore will be either long gone, or WAY North of Cozumel by then.
That's my story and I'm stickin to it!


Dennis...how was your trip???

Vonda , glad your endoscopy went well. Enjoy Cirque.

Happy Birthday to Mark! Good Day to be Born on! from Bill! Yes this is my first and probably last post. Elaine showed me the birthday greetings and I had to reply, (not had to, wanted to) Looking forward to meeting you all on Friday night. Bill, the other half of Elaine

I got Kathy up out of a sound sleep to watch the Magic go by on two palms. She made me promise to get her up so she could wave at Dave and Ellen and wish them safe trip. (can't spell bon voyage)

See you all there in 7 days, six for some of you.

Kathy just has four more nights and then she is on vacation!!! Mike

 

[papa]

Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday everybody; Happy birthday to you.

Another question for all you cruise veterans--

I read on another thread that I should send my husband to stand in the boarding line while I go check in. Is that what you do? Does only one family member have to check in?

I could have sworn we use to get a DVC discount but maybe it was just a Magic Kingdom card discount. We use to get them free at work because the HR department organized a couple trips each year there. Between American Express, magic Kingdom and DVC club card never know what is going on. And another question Why don't we get a discount we pay enough? Two years ago we (I) watched a hurricane(Jorges) all night before our trip and I refuse to do it again. We are comming no matter what. Happy Birthday to the Birthday Boys. How about Penn State putting points on the board like they are in running for the national championship.........well maybe. I have to work up until Friday 10:00am and told them I walk out then no matter where we stand. Hope everyone has a great trip down and a safe week.

Thought the music was appropriate. this time next week we will all be with friends. New and old!
If I remember correctly we all had to check in. Especially the adults. They check your id. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Missed the Magic sailing by, but did see it in port this am.
Have a super Sunday. I plan to pack in earnest tomorrow. Tonight we are going to see ONe hour photo. Tomorrow night to the Idaho shakespeare Theater to see Charlie Brown. then only four more nights til we are at the Radisson. Elaine

Happy birthday Bill & Mark ..... Vonda (?) glad the endoscopy went well. Elaine ... Glad you dad is doing so well.

George ... how bout those Nittany lions! Now let's hear it for the Eagles toorrow.

Just back from Pizza ... may do an all nighter in packing so I can just straighten up the house tomorrow and then maybe put up my hooves and relax a little. Need to de-stress a little before the final packing check-see monday night. I figure if I find out I forgot something, there are a ton of WalMart's on the way down!

Have a nice night ... By the way, Rooting or Danielle on Big Brother since she is married and has a family!

 

[rae519]

Cathy,
Speaking of Big Brother - did you ever see the very first one?
I was rooting for "Chicken Man"! I will never forget Karen from Indiana who was always complaining about her marriage. Sheesh! Either you marry a person or you don't and if it isn't working out, National TV is the last place for it to be worked out.
Unless you have Dr. Phil, of course!

Yesterday I got bit on the hand by a yellow jacket - wow! The burning pain from that is incredible. Seems we are infested now with underground nests. Time to get the bug guy back.
To make it even a more wonderful day, Mom was cutting her grass and tripped. Banged up her nose pretty good. This is after I told her we would cut her grass and she explained to me that although she is 73, she can still do things herself. Yes, this is very true - she's more like 50 than 73, but still and all - I want to do for her. Anyway, we are desperately trying to stay healthy! Think we both need to stay INDOORS!

By the way, I love football - because we met Doug Flutie at WDW when he was with the Patriots and he was very kind to our then 6 year old son (Christopher) - we are Flutie fans. So whereever he goes, our loyalties follow. Even when it was CFL.

Rae

 

[RellingTwin]

Elaine, LOVE the "Freinds" tune. I also think the song for "Enterpise" is great! Glad you found your passports.

Rae...for heavens sakes...be careful! I hate yellow jackets. We have fought with them before. They are tough to get rid of.

Cathy and Art, have a safe drive to FL!

At Girl Scout meeting yeaterday it was announced we will be going to see Disney on Ice next month. Looking forward to it!

Kimber...each adult has to check in, but it dosn't have to be at the same time. My DH will drop us off at the port, then he will bring the car back to the Radisson and hope on a shuttle to get back. I will check in for me and the kids and he will check himself in when he gets there. So get in the boarding line and take turns checking in. And come and say hello to us...we'll be the 1st in line!(maybe)LOL!

6 days to go!
we have been counting since 351 days! WOW!

 

[@GoofyNut]

Rae .... For God's sake be careful with the yellow jackets. I don't believe this BUT last Wednesday when I was working out of town, I had to stop one of my interviews cause there was one came out of the puter keyboard right at my hand. That's all I need, something else with my paw. Needless to say he's dead now. Some people are highly allergic (Hope not you?) and I didn't know if my clients were. Are they late in coming around this year or what.

It's been awfully humid and damp her the last few days and is raising havoc on my arthur (and I don't my my hubby). As soon as I get Art (DH's) clothes packed I'm calling it good enough. IOve got almost everything else packed ... just the last few things like doing the "travel wallet" Tuesday night. I don't like to travel with all of my cards so I have a travel wallet with just the essentials ... too much of hassel if you lose something and have to get it repladed.

OK george, The Sorcerer, what's with our Eagles today? I have the game on and they need to get it together.

Quiet on the DIS today ... guess everyone's packing.

Hope the weather cooperates next week.

 

[papa]

Hi Cathy, hope the paw gets better before Friday. Mary I sent you a page to captain marvins detailing the location to your email. Here is the link alsoCaptain Marvins Location

Hope that everyone stays healthy and that Rae stays away from the yellowjackets. Mike

Finally got the Cruisears transfers ironed on to the T-shirts (we actually found decent light-blue T-shirts) last night. We leave in about 52 hours (drive to DTW Tuesday night with a 7:00am flight Wednesday morning) with one day at Typhoon Lagoon and 2 at USF/IoA before heading to the port Saturday morning.

I know it's getting close when I can count the days-to-go on one hand.
