Thanks for the compliments on the pictures! I'll pass it along to DH. I told him that folks were having trouble viewing the group shot and he moved the picture to the first page(to find it easier) and I think he cropped it alittle to bring it closer and he said to bring it even closer....when you click on the picture, at the bottom, there's an option that says "original". He said to click on that. That way we can make out everyone's faces Any questions, just let me know and I'll pass it along. All I know how to do is point and click. He does the fancy stuff.

fortierv- we thought Gabor and Toney were great! Glad you had them too!

videoman- Did you see the photo of you and Barb with your Golden Mickey? Too cute! Tell the girls that our girls miss them! They'll be writing soon.
Regards,
Laura

Tell the girls to stay in touch....

Thanks again

Laura-

Thanks for pointing out the group pic-not sure how I missed that bunch! LOL

Rosemary!-
Bot where do I begin? LOL I PMed you almost a month ago, and didn't receive a response-whats up with that? We went to Paris about a month and half ago-took the train from Disney to downtown and I kept saying this is just like the LIRR! It brought back my memories of my trip to see you! NOW QUIT BEING MEAN TO ME!! Love ya and miss ya!

Viking-

I object to having more Germans on the ship! Scott seconds that motion. Naw of course not-after all I am part german (thats where my crazy side comes from!)

Mary Jo-

Glad you are coming with us! Hope everything is going better with your hubby (name is pulling a blank!) Did I read correctly that you canceled the 14 day cruise?

Mary-

Awaiting your trip report! Glad to see the family had a great time! Is Ave' joining us for #4?

Van and Charlie-

Glad to get the chance to meet you! As you found out this group is a blast to cruise with.

Michael-

Welcome aboard! They say the 3rd cruise is always the beat, and you picked a great bunch of people to cruise with. Its always nice to meet others family memebers! LOL

Hope everyone has a great day!

Dan

Michael...Welcome to you and Scott!

Dan...yes, Ave will be booking soon.

Laura...looking at the pics explains why your son Chris had such a good time!

Who is interested in diving in Cozumel?We will probaby book with Eagle Ray Divers again.

 

[Viking]

Count us in for the dive in Cozumel and I guess Jill & Tim will accompany us as well - This will be fun!!!

To everyone:
Some of you already sent a short mail to the new account -Thank you!!
The rest should send one ASAP. There is no need to repeat your info, just list the changes.
Out of humanitarian reasons I will not list any ages before summer '06 - It is to frustrating to list our ages-to-be so early, and it would be too much work to update the List after each birthday. I'll amend the List accordingly shortly before the cruise.

The short mail to the new acccount is intended to facilitate building a new adressbook: I can just grab you adress from your mail instead of typing all the info. Some would call that lazy - I call it efficient


Edíted for typos Hey, I'm 41 now

 

[Zapp1213]

I'm back at work!

I'm wearing long sleeves & closed-toed shoes!!!!

I am so going thru withdrawal. I watched Pirates of the Caribbean, and all the extras on the DVD all afternoon yesterday.

Thanks for the online pix, they're really helping me stay "in the mood".

Later...

 

[Viking]

We're already back home after work and our daily visit to the gym. It's already dark over here and the temp never got higher than 55°F today, but at least under blue skies. So I could drive with the top down after work

Folks,
I just established a Kids only-account on Yahoo. So please have your kids send their info to:

cruisetoberkids@yahoo.com

Ciara has once again volunteered to take care of the Kid's List and is looking forward to receive many, many mails.

 

[fortierv]

Count us in for the dive. If we're not certified in 732 days I should be shot.

 

[dsncruise lover]

Hi everybody. I am so looking foward to this next cruse. I told all my friends at school about all the fun I had and now they want to come too. I had so much fun. Especially with Heidi and Kylie.

Viking: Are you goign to send me a new blank list? I don't know how to make the chart. Plus I don't know how to get the cool sign on the top.

P.S. This post is also testing my new countdown timer.

 

[jeanneg]

Eric: I'm having trouble opening up the link you posted. Since nothing has changed (we're still in statroom 7120), just include us and use all the old information. Thanks!

 

[Twinave]

OMG...Where do I begin?

First ..Welcome back to Scootersmom, Dan and Scott, Tulirose, and all other former cruisers. Where's Windy?
Jeanniec, Thanks for the info, I will try again to book through DCL and get the discount.
But I have booked! Could NOT do a cat. 11 again. Just TOO small for us. So we got 6056. Signed up for early dinning, but could change to late.
6 Germans at one table???? Eric, couldn't we spread you all out a little bit?
Laura, LOVE the pictures! Thanks for sharing them with us. Your DH is very talented. And he has such a pretty family to photograph.
So Excited that so many cruises want to cruise again! Maybe we'll hit 200 this time. (280 would be 10% of the passengers)
For those of you who asked about my MIL, she is doing OK. She is still in the hospital, she still has a chest tube, but she is in good spirits. We hope to know something about her prognosis by tomorrow.
It's good to be back to work, but not back to the cooking and cleaning.
Avé

Here is an interesting trip report from the ... I can understand how someone could get this impression. Hopefully, we will respect others while we enjoy each other.

"I just finished my first cruise ever of any type on the Disney Magic's western bound Panama Canal Cruise. I know first cruise ever I jumped right in with a 14 day cruise. Just a few thoughts and personal opinions.

1) Disney pin traders: You people REALLY do need to get lifes. My god you pay thousands of dollars for a cruise and you sleep on the floor all night to get a pin. Common sense says sleep in your bed, set an alarm, get your pin. which by the way I have the full set and no it will NOT be available on e-bay.
Which brings me to point number 2.

2) E-bayers: Ok, so you pay again thousands of dollars for a cruise to sit online posting things on e-bay. Get a LIFE!

3) Disboarders on this cruise: I specifically say this cruise because I do know of some disboarder who do not fall into this group. Did you guys really think that you were that special? My god I have never met a group more rude or who thought the cruise was just for them. To ***** and ****, we were glad you left our table the conversation was much better with out you disboarders.

4) The cruise itself was GREAT!!!!!

5) The crew was Fantastic, especially Cynthia and Wendy

I will absolutely do another Disney cruise as long as I know it is NOT a big pin nut cruise or being over run by rude disboarders."


MAN some people LOL

 

[Viking]

Jeanne,
here's the link in plain text: http://www.puertocostamaya.com/
but I always check links after posting them and this one works fine both from my office-PC and from home Just copy/paste it from this post into your IE and it should work.

Ciara,
no problem. I'll send you a blank list as soon as I have made a new one. I'm already thinking about some changes. If you want tgo have anything changed, let me know via mail.

Mary,
there won't be 6 Germs at one table as Andre & Kerstin will join the veterans. And as we are hoping that the Tulis will join us again I consider our table full. If that couple from our gym would come along we would try to hook them up with another table. He's an economist and lawyer with the German Federal Bank and she's a highschool teacher, both are experienced cruisers, but no DCL so far.

Peter,
I'm sure WE can handle YOU
And BTW: Your feet stink

Peter

That's not the way I remember it. We were confirmed before you all decided to join us

By the way, I got my test results yesterday. I PASSED!!!! Probably won't mean a big raise, though it should

Tracy

 

[Viking]

Congratulations on passing the test, Tracy
Raise for you = Cocktails for us

 

[RellingTwin]

Yippeee! I just won tickets to see "Finding Nemo on Ice"! I entered though the radio station web site a few weeks ago, and while driving DS to school this morning they announced my name!

Eric, AVE is the twin who made the remark about all the Germans at one table

Tracy..CONGRATULATIONS!

Ave, you got our cabin from last year!

 

[winotracy]

Congratulations Mary! I hope you didn't drive off the road when you heard your name

Eric if a raise would come, I'd be more than willing to buy cocktails, but I don't see that happening. I'd just like them to reimburse me for the test. Strawberry Smoothies for all who don't pout

 

[jeanneg]

Congrats Mary and Tracy! (guess I missed something but what was the test for?)

Eric: the link I couldn't open was the one to sign up for Cruisetoberfest IV.......something about a secure server. The problem is most likely on our end because we have dial-up and use 2 different providers (it's a long story). Anyhow, all this will be resolved when we move and upgrade to DSL, but for now we just have to live with it. If you could just add me to the list from your end it would really help......thanks!
